small store of provisions.

night, making her solitary camp
in the woods. She has lived
life more promitive than a gypsy,
making her fires, cooking simple
meals, ad often for days at the
time having no other comrades
than the donkey and the birds.
Last spring she was feeble, dis
contented with her lot in the
world, and thought her days of
life were numbered. Now she Is
the picture of health with her
clear, tanned skin and sparkling
blue eyes, and expects to live
many years.
AS she sat in the cart, wear

nary sacking, with a sheep-skin
rug tucked around her, one
thought that few men have the
pluck to trough it" as this fragile
paralyzed woman has done.
