She spoke in a curious emotionless

husbed it Dicky led me through an
ancient door with curiously wrought
old knobs into hall with an immense
fireplace.

Dicky faced my in the old hall of

YOUNG WIDOW.


ID If you are good at housework
you could probably get employment
as housekeeper in a private home and
at the same time have your little girl
with you. Do not consider this work
beneath you, because it is something
that very many fine women are doing
whose husbands have gone to war.
Go to an employment bureau for
advice. You might get office work or
clerking for a while and save enough
money to start housekeeping and have
roomers and boarders, but if you do
office work you cannot have your child
with you. 1t is very serious matter

little girl to care for.
