you would quit saying, 'I'll tell the

the room lost their shadows: and "The
Greatest Mother in the World" seemed
to stand out more plainly than even
when the sun shone.
Pollyop placed her warm cheek
against the picture and smiled. She
earnestly believed this wonder-mother
was helping her to so and see Daddy
Hopkins. She turned and looked long
ingly at the sick little man, then up
ward to the woman's face.
"You've done SO much for me an
Jerry. ma'am," she whispered. "Meb-
be sometime you'd -him-smile

silk, ana In 1t was the color of the
sun just before he sailed over the
western hill on his journey around
the earth. There could not be such
another beautiful gown in all the
world, Polly thought. Then she slow

and stopped . moment contemplating
Daddy Hopkins big boots. Even to
Polly's primitive mind they did not
seem to be just the thing to wear
with such q dress. So the boots, too,

bare neck and forearms cleaning

tranced with its voluptuous loveliness.

daring to look at 1t. How Evelyn was
to arrange the visit to Auburn, she
did not know. but Of one thing she was
