mentally," I, had been making iden

feel toward little Mrs. Durkee as
one does to a beloved relative. I
can criticise her. myself, .mentally,
qah j see , where she was ax; fault,
but I don't care to listen to un
favorable comment upon' her' from
any-one else; Besides, the little
woman, was atoning ; royally, for

bad judgment of her -choice pf
