Drawing back, she hesitated a sacond, and then she took tbo spoon and began eating the broth. Oh! brother,' crlod tbe officer, 'don't waste It in that way I'm not afraid,' and so sho gave bim tbo soup. It seemed to revivo tboui, and thoy continued stoadily to Im provo as day alter day we supplied them with chicken broth until tbe csllar was omptv.
