MOTHER OF THREE, FOR LOVE,
GRADUATES FROM HIGH SCHOOL
Wonderful Story of the
Widow Who Studied and
Sewed, But Who Will Now
be Able to Leave Her Sew
ing Machine and Become a
Teacher.
Weaves she early an weaves she
late.
She weaves, nor heaves a sigh or
moan;
bit the weft of the fabric is dark as
'ate
the Brace of ihe vision gone.
■ CHICAGO, ' Feb. 4.—But the
'darkness of fate" has lifted from
the brow of Mrs. Hannah Jacober.
True, she si ill sits at her sewing
machine In her little flat Here and
sews early and late. She is only
IlL'. a widow and the mother of three
little children. The beautiful face
that once rippled iv smiles is now
furrowed with lines of care. And
the tenseness of her work as she
Units the wrinkles Into a frown is
unbroken.
It's a wonderful story of mother
love —love that brought light
through thick darkness t<> the Ja
cober household. The wolf whose
fangs she could almost feel once,
has been distanced by this widowed
mother. And her self-denial and
her hard work have made her home
a little place of glory all to herself
and the children. It's her heaven —
ithe heaven she found by love and
bard work on a hard earth.
Five years ago the .lacohers, a
nappy family, came here from the
far Bwaj fatherland. Then the
•husband died. For a year and a.
halt the woman, speaking little
English, struggled. Hut always she
Wits brave. She knew if she could
do some work like that to which
her social position in Germany
would entitle her, she could keep
the wolf away.
So. with lingers unused to toll,
she sewed at night and studied as
a common pupil in the Robt, Wal
ler high school by day.
At flrsi the foolish youngsters
who crowd the high schools laughed
gt her. Their gibes made the
loars come when she sewed each
fright. Hut she kept on.
v Suddenly, after three years of
bard work, the clouds lifted. Every
body was her friend. The world

INVESTIGATE
Before too Late
During the year 1909 a great
fanny verj prominent men passed
away and the number that suc
cumbed to Btomach trouble was
very large. Many underwent oper
ations by the most scientific
physicians, but, alas, the concensus
»t opinion, too late. It you are
troubled with stomach trouble do
not delay, but investigate the many
testimonials from prominent citi

nently cured by the use of Powell's

that had grown so cold and gray,
was letting in the sunlight to her
and her little ones.
When Mrs. Jacober gets her
diploma in a few weeks she will be
ready to start a course of training
in tho city normal school, and be
fore long she will be a teacher.
Lunch money, books and other
necessaries were gained by her
working around the school building.
"You really must excuse me,"
was her reply, when asked about
her brave struggle. It was in lan
guage you don't oftf>n hear after
climbing to the third floor rear.
"1 couldn't bear to be poor and
bring my children up to the grind
and horrors of poverty, So 1 be
gan studying nights. My baby was
too young to leave with the other
Children during the day. When the
baby got older I started to the Wal
ler high school. That was three
years ago. The regular course
lasts four years. Bflt I took double
work. 1 never had less than six
subjects at a time."
Will Mrs. Jacober be a good
teacher? Authorities on education
say she will. For out of her depth
of misery has come a softened
soul, a soul with kindness toward
all, but most of all. to little chil
dren, like her three, and like the
ones she will teach. It will be a
blessing to her, the day she starts
to teach, and a blessing to the chil
dren who are her pupils, too.

BERKELEY, Cfcl.. Feb. 4—All
the wisdom wasn't Solomon's.
Victor Lindahl has some of it, and
he wants to be a good neighbor
besides. He keeps chickens, and
Mrs. Payne, next door, keeps a
garden—yes, in winter; this is
I California, you know. Well, the
1 Lindahl chickens got into the
, Payne garden about as olien as
I they felt like it, and to keep the
[ peace Lindahl clipped tlleir wings,
i Still Mrs. Payne had to shoo
] chickens away from her lettuce,
but Lindahl claimed nn alibi for
his poultry on account of the
clipped wings. Now Lindahl has
! painted each of his chickens a
| vivid green. With this action went
' a polite note to Mrs. Payne that
| she could decapitate any green
chickens she found in her garden
from that time on. Incidentally,
I somebody else's chickens, which
haven't their wings clipped, and
aren't painted green, are going to
be shown up as the real offenders.
