Mrs Bolivar received them gladly
Jack was at work and she was alone
in the house. she looked Very dainty
in her blue foulard dress and tiny apron
and sweet looking, and she seemed
happy.

women In the neighborhood and some
out of 1t. She was liked instinctively.
She was a busy little thing. but never
too busy to stop for a chat when she
had a visitor. She was a gay little
woman, too; but not too gay. The gayety
would vanish presently, Mrs. Griffin
knew. Whenever she saw Mrs. Bolivar
she looked anxiously for the first signs
of tears and heart sickness. And present
