that she was, and I'm telling you that
a woman, old or young, black or white,
has got to be at the jumping off place
before she wUl admit that Yes she
was homely and ungainly, -"and the fu

had the money to buy paints and povif

good clothes she could have concealed
much of the homely ajod ungainly, but
she didn't have, you seie. Some pitied
her, and some made fun .of her, and
she bore. It with such philosophy
she could summon up. Her birothfer

"Well, if anybody's to blame it's tbe
Lord," Martha would reply as she dis

Sometimes^ still.-small voice would
say to ber that her time would come,
but she had waited so long that tbe
voice ceased to cheer her. When a

There was no rest for any one in the

gone to Boston to spend or bank her
money. Which wbuld it be? No one
knew when she came home safe and

days. Then the cat got out of the bag.
In other words, two big dry goods

when a certain object was held aloft
