The ability of a woman to get on alone
III the world is sometimes questioned by
her big brothers. But there are plenty
of instances where women have been
left in circumstances which would try

our informant, pointing to the place,

band died. She then had three small
children, and another was born soon
after. The farm was in poor condition
and had about all the mortgage it could
bear. Her husbands old father. feeble
and fussy, was left on her hands.
Did she send the old man to the poor
farm, think you? Not bit of It. She
kept him a year or two, and he was so
fussy she couldn't live with him. Then
she hired neighbor to take him, and she
paid his board II years, when he died
She raised her children and brought
the farm into good condition. She paid
the mortgage, and when she died she
left good property free and clear of all
debts. The boys hadn't the old lady's
spunk, for there's a mortgage up there
now, and nothing in the world but lazi-
ness did it. They had everything left
ready to their hands and amt had no
drawbacks, 'cept losin their mother, but
