John Mitchell told a story recently
in the Glover club Of Philadelphia
which was Of a certain grim humor.
Mr. Mitchell was in his first suit Of
evening dress He was talking about
the seriousness Of life, and his story
bore out his view He said there
were two sisters, seamstresses. who
lived in little room and earned their
bread by sewing. They were young
and pretty, but they seldom laughed:
they never wore cOmely clothes; they
did nothing but sit in a stopped atti-
tude, sewing all day and a good part
Of the evening One night, when she
was quite worn out with labor. the
younger said TO the older sister: "Oh.
dear, 1 wish we were both dead" The
older sisters mouth took on a grim
smile as she returned BE still and
