A woman's Dream.

On Warren avenue, in Chicago, lives q
good old lady at the home of her only son,
business man in fairly comfortable cir
cumstances This is the story the old lady
tells:
1T was twenty years ago. We lived, my
husband and l. with the children, on q
little farm near the Wabash river. NV
husband went away with the wheat one
April, hauling all he had to sell in the big
wagon. He was to be back Saturday night,
and l sat up for him. The children had
gone to bed, but l had little supper all
ready for him, and sat before the fire knit
ting 1t was away past midnight, and
