from town." says the Catlettsburg
(Ky) Independent, there may be seen
quite a pile of sewing lying on the
floor, nearly in the middle Of the room,
that has been undisturbed for more
than six months. At that time the
head OF the house wanted chair, and,
seeing but one handy, he dumped to
the floor the sewing which lay upon
it. His wife asked him to pick it up.
He said he wouldn't do it. She told
him, as he threw 1t there, it could re-
main until he got ready to pick it up.
She would never touch 1t. And there
1t remains. a memorial to an incom-
