and the woman turned to Erskine,
agonized.

she was going to kill herself You

Stiil sleepless at following dawn
the boy rode FREELY into the woods
At sunset he came in, gaunt with
brooding and hunger. His mother,
watching from her wigwam, under
stood and grew fearful. Quickly she
called him, and he rose and went
to her bewildered; she, was smiling.

with malignant satisfaction, but said
nothing-nor did Crooked Lightning.
Erskine turned once as he rode
away. His mother was standing out
side her wigwam. Mournfully she
waved her hand. Behind her and
within the tent he could see Early
Morn with both hands at her breast.

Even the great Washington was near

To do any kind of work. or to play for
that matter, is next to impossible if you
are suffering from some form Of female
trouble. It may cause your back or your
legs to ache, it may make. you nervous
and irritable. You may be able to keep
UP and around, but you do not feel good.
