a scimitar with a highly ornate hilt and
scabbard Thus he combined dignity
with picturesqueness
Mr.. Collins gave him half an hour

Following with admiration your we'll

Neighb0r.

Mary McNally, IA years old, pupil
in the high school Of Nutley. N. j.. tried
to commit suicide Tuesday by inhaling
gas in her bedroom In her home at %
Hamilton place. Nutley, but neighbors
found her and sent her to ST.. Mary's
Hospital in Passaic in time to save her
life. She is recovering in the hospital,
and it was said there last night that
she will be able to go home within
few days.
When the girl does go home, neigh

hard. unremitting work, trying to keep
up her school duties and at the same
time be a mother to her Ave brothers
and sisters, all younger than she. She
has been attempting the task for three
years since her mother died, and she
has found 1t almost impossible. The
girl has managed to keep up in her
class in school, but the strain has been
too much for her, and. besides, she has
never ceased to grieve over the death or
her mother.
One day last week her father, who is
an iron molder, punished her for some
small derellction. SO on Tuesday she
got her fathers breakfast ana that Oh
the other children and then bundled her
brothers and sisters off to school.
BY this time she was tired, and 1t
took her a long time to clean the dishes
and get the house In order so she could
go to school herself.
she went into her room and sat down
On the bed and began to wonder II she
ought TO end her life. She was very
tired nothing seemed to be turning out
right for her. So she locked the door,
closed the windows and turned on the
ras. But a neighbor, Mrs. Bessie Jones.
snelled the gas and entered Mary's
room.
She found the little girl unconscious
and sent her to the hospital. There she
has been visited by her teachers ana
everybody has sent her flowers and
candy.
