Sarah Borden calling from the little
front entry startled the mother from
her efforts tit pacifying her clinging
infant.
"With my clothes still in the tubs?"
she answered with her ready smile.
"Not but what I'd like to go, Sarah,"
she added, with a longing note in her
voice.
"It's always the same story," dis-
approvingly complained Sarah with
the freedom of a friend. "It would do
you good, Mary Mahoney. You just

"But I can't leave a crying baby
