In a little upper room in a certain ofice
building in Omaha there lived a woman Of
large sympathy, Of intense devotion to
friends, of real. active. spontaneous HUI
manitarianism She was not a prominent
club woman: she was not Identified with
any office Of any charitable society, nor
was she a uniformed sister Of help or
mercy.
She was a woman who twas full Of good
works" All around the little room wherein
her life work was done were to be found
pictures, books of the best writer's and of
the latest thought, and in one sacred
corner, to which the elect alone we're al
lowed. there might have been found a plain
servlceable ~coffeepot.
On the same floor were studios Of musi-
clans, and many a cup OF coffee has been
administered to the wearied ones by the
Rand Of the certain disciple named Tabitha,
or Dorcas, or. as she was called in real
life. Sophie Sorenson.
Miss Sorenson, who had lived a life full
Of cares and worries, and those petty an
noyances which go to make UP an exi5t-
ence, had time to take flowers to any friend
who was sick. She had time to take books
to those whom she loved. and she had time
to take care OF the students who came early
to the studios and found them locked. They
were invited into Miss Sorenson's little
room and were kept entertained, as she
worked with dexterous fingers upon some
body's new gown. The friendship of this
noble woman, who loved music as she loved
righteousness-that is, practical righteous
ness-endeared herself to the hearts OF
those who from time to time occupied that
floor Of the building on which her room was
situated-for instance. Sigmund Landsberg,
Frank Potter, Charles Higgins, G. f.. Steck-
elberg, Oscar Gareissen, the present writer
and others. Never was there q good con-
cert but that one seat was sure to be oc-
cupied. Never was a plate passed at a
free recital but there was a silver response,
and with all her love for humanity she had
none for herself. She had lowers for
friends, but not for her own table.

Last year 1 asked her to suggest someone
who would make the gowns for the Meth
odist choir at a reasonable price. 1 could
not ask her to make them, because I knew
she was busy on several important gowns
which would bring much more financial
emolument. Out of her love for that choir,
to which she was always a devoted listener,
although not a church member, she threw
aside her other work and made forty
gowns, every stitch being a stitch Of love,
sewn in by her own hands. and every seam
a suggestion of the ties that bind.
"And 1t came to pass in those days that
she took sick and died." A quartet OF lead
ing professionals sang at her funeral, one of
the most prominent pianists Of the city left
his studio to play the accomplishments
therefor, and Rev. e. f. Trefz, who knew
