MISS WRAGd'S SACRIFICE

We still call her a girl, though her
years are forty-odd and she has been
sewing for us for twenty. In this way
she has become associated with every
important event in our family history.

never made our very best dresses.
Those were given out, so had TO be
treated with special reverence. and We
never really enjoyed the use of them
until they had been made over by
Miss Wragg's nimble fingers. She loved
to use up old materials, or TO make

Everything might be at skies and sew

arrived. We just had to sit down and
quietly sew with her during the prec-
iOus week or two she had saved for us
and let outside worries 90 their way.

in Miss Wraggs local gossip, though
he would not have owned ii for the

to her coming for that very reason.
Living out Of the way as we did, she
gave us news OF the whole countryside
