Bat when her work is done, what is there for her to do?
She will not associate with the other kindly, simple, hard-work-

up her mind that she a above them. and now she has no friends
at all except those for whom she works.
The woman who pays her her monthly salary loves her very
much, for she Is gentle and affectionate and faithful, and the other
day the woman said 70 the Brown Girl: "Georgina, they're having
