came in about five o'clock and was
curious to know why the dining room
door was closed. Instead of telling,
Mrs. WoIlendorf dressed Bertha in
her best frock and gave her doll
and carriage, her birthday present.
The mother then fastened to the
kitchen to watch the cake that was
baking. Bertha was so excited over
her gift she had to follow her mother
to the kitchen, wheeling the carriage,
in which was the doll. Near the
range the carriage was overturned,
and while STOPPING to right it BERTHA
pretty dress caught fire.
In a second the f1imsy garment was

mother drew Bertha close to her in
an effort to smother the flames. The
woman's clothes were ignited, but de-

child's dress before she considered
herself. Bertha, shockingly burned,
was taken to the hospital, where the
doctors said she would likely die.
