largely attended, nearly all the
counties being represented. Judge
s. S. Savage, of Ashland, was cbos-

is a most pleasing speaker, and her
simple conversational style of ed
dress is very winning. The warm
hearted pathy for the suffering
aud benlghted people among whom

related by her IN a way that comes
home to every heart.
