Little Miss Elites double tainted away

day week. Under the common law
practice Of California, Frazier against
Crowell, alias Golinsky, involving an
estate Of $4,000, had been rs long in
the courts as Jarndyce against Jarndyce
in chanccry. Miss Golinsky, a nervous,
cmaciated little lady of 60, had fought
her way from court 10 court with a pa
tienGe which the delays Of the law could
not exhaust, and with a determination
which the ingenuity Of lawyers could
battle. but not overcome. She had told
her story to every lawyer and Judge III
the city; every clerk and reporter knew
it by heart and nodded to her familiarly
whenever her strange little figure cast
it's shadow upon the Court House walk.
Her jewels, one after another, had been
sold; her prlncesse dresses and her pol
onaises had been pawned; and finally
she was reduced to such straits that she
had to borrow the few bits" with which
she kept the life Of her poor little body.
But she never lost her courage; her faith
in the righteousness Of her cause re-
manned mistaken. Sure enough, the
court Of final resort unexpectedly docid-
ed in her favor. She was not in the
courtroom when the decision was rem
dered, and had not heard the news when
a reporter stopped her on the sidewalk
and congratulated her. Then Miss Go
linsky cried out pitcously, Help me
