that is on the front porch, and Aunt
Mat had the folding bed in the dining
room made up and was sleeping on
that, with her diamonds in a little
chamois bag under her head.
Long after midnight Aunt Mat was
awakened by creepy sound, like the
branches of a tree sweeping back and
forth against the window, i'll the big
room where Matte was sleeping.
There was a tiny night lamp in that
room, in far corner
She lay there perfectly paralyzed
BY this sound, feeling that something

move. she said. listening to that awful
sound Pretty soon she began to re.

Fashion and Gnod Last

CARDS taste; in our way of living. our
