They soon reached tho home of
Committeeman Davis Mrs. Davis
hustled around in a hurry preparing
little extras for supper, while Boy
played with the baby and told stories
to tho larger children, who clung
around her lovingly. Then after
supper she helped Mrs. Davis clear
the table, and by SO doing forever
gained the good will Of that tired
and overworkcd woman.
How often We might Tighten the
labors OF those around us by little
deeds Of kindness! Then they joined
the men in the "big room" and
awaited the coming OF tho expected
visitors. They came at last and Boys
hopes fell as she saw the patronizing
manner in which Jones and Duncan
treated Mr.. Bell. The Doctor glanc.
ed at her and saw that she was very
pale.
