From the Globe. Boston, Mass.


The town of Albion down in Kenne
bee County, Maine, is one of those
smart little hamlets which SO often
dot the landscape of the Pine Tree
State. If noted for anything more than
another in particular, it is the thou
sands of cords of pulp wood which it
annually furnishes to feed the yawn-
ing jaws of the immense pulp mills
which line the shore of the kennebec,
its fine dairy farms and the sturdy
farm wives who make pleasant the
snug and thrifty homes within her
borders.
Nestled down among the pine trees
in the southern part of the town is
the quiet farm home of Mr.. Leonidas
White. Mr. Whites home is presided
over by his daughter, Miss Carrie B.
White. who does the work for the
whole family, and this without help
1t is hard to realize that the young la
dy, now so full of life and energy, was
but short time ago a great sufferer
from intiammatory rheumatism. But
here is the story in her own words:
