that he earned a rollar and half

well, that without this income her
mother would be greatly distressed.
After she had eaten her breakfast
of bread and milk, the child went up
stairs and got an old pair Of stockings
which she drew on over her shoes,
that had long been SO worn as to afford
but little protection to her feet; and
then taking from a closet an old shawl,
'drewit over her head. Thus attired,
she waited at the head Of the stairs
until her mother was out Of the way,
and then went quietly down. She
managed 10 leave the house without
being seen by any one, and took her
way through the deep nd untracked
snow, towards the mill, which was
about a quarter Of a mile off. The air
was bitter cold, and the storm still
continued but the child pIodded on,
chilled to the very heart as she soon
was, and, at length, almost frozen,
reached the mill, The owner had
observed her approach from the vim
