the close Susan said She felt As tLo,.h

she proceeded to ask God to help her

was held about charity. of its precious

chapter Of Faul's first epistle to the
Corinthians, which was read. The chill
dren also hunted up some verses from the

would seek the 3iit of charity.
As the mother was called away to

all is at stand-still around the planning mill

Was the wrong leg tied up? When doc

pronounced the large bone of the left leg
broken, and bandaged it, putting on no splint
until the third day, when one splint was APP
piled. The other leg was reported bruised,
but would be all right in few days. At the
end of fourteen days another surgeon was
called, who reports the large bone of left leg
not broken, but both bones of the right leg
broken midway between the ankle and knee
and he reduced the fracture"
