thousend dollars which is exactly her estimate OF
her mothers needs
Is the woman who gives her child to others
inhuman. a monstrous creature lost to the nnest
emotion In life?
Il the daughter who stands ready TO sacrifice the
thing nearest 20 her heart in order to pay that
debt o. mother-love which was inspired in the
cradle angel?
Imagine. If you can. the coshic; that has ragged in
this woman's heart
She has watched her own mother in agony day
after day unable purchase the comforts that
might tighten to some degree the suferings she
fingers on her inevitable way the grave.
The one kindly touch which this aged mother
welcomes that OF this devoted daughter whose
personal solictude prevents her from earning the
money she needs for the physical OF her
mother.
She turns from that picture OF and misery
the laughing OF her own babe, whose pink
fingers reach to caress and drive away her
cares. Her happiness is found only in the
cooling OF the babe and its prattling prayers at
evening
She may look ahead into the years to that time
when she may lie as her mother lies with this
little girl her only comfort and soace.
L is fortunate that few women are faced with
such problems. It is fortunate that there are not
many communities where would be forced
to such a choice
II she fails her own mother, might not she expect
to be forsaken when the hour comes that her
happiness and welfare might depend upon this babe?
II she sells her babe, what she expect from
the years come II they be lonely and hopeless in
their lack of the human being that could furnish
happiness?
Before you call her angel for her devotion
her mother write her down as a monster for
selling her babe hesitate long enough to shed one
little tear OF pity and then call her by her and
wonderful name OF Woman. No man could
ever reach such heighth such a depth.
