There was a sad heart Ia the low
stored, dark little house that stood
humbly by the roadside under some
tall elms. Small as the house was.
old Mrs. Robb found il too large for
herself alone; she only needed the
Kitchen and a tiny bed room that led
out OF it, and there still remained the
best room and n bed room, with the
low garnet overhead.

UP to by her n%eighbors as being indie

footed and lame-lianded with a debt
to carry and her bare land, and the
house ill-provisioned TO stand the siege
OF time.
For awhile she managed TO get on,
but at last it began 10 be whispered
about that ii was of NC use for anyone
to be so proud; 1t was easier for the
whole town to care for her than for Il
few neighbors, and Mrs. Robb had

most OF those who wished her TO go TO

pay himself back. He would plow
over the graves in the field corner and

reproached her for being too generous

The light faded out of doors, and
again her troubles stood before her. Yet
it was not SO dark as 1t had been in
her sad heart. She still sat by the
window, hoping now. in spite of her
self, instead Of fearing; and Il curious
feeling of nearness and expectancy
made her feel not so much li~ght-heart-
