made pathetic plea to be allowed to
remain. She was a sad. lone woman,
the victim of unparalleled misfor-

father and mother. her brother, three
children, and had been twice widowed.
The story of her troubles made such an
impression upon Herr Rumf that he let
her remain, and made his terms re-
markably liberal.
She was fine buxom woman. Of
gracious manners, and possessing a
sad, sweet smile that melted the hearts

her complexion marvellous. Her teeth
were snowy, set rather far apart and
pointed. Had a modern criminologist
noted her teeth, he might have been
impervious to the appeal Of her eyes.
Her upstair rooms were handsomely
furnished, and she had fine library,

spent much time reading. Her piety,
while not obstrusive, always attracted
attention.
