making one. sheet of iiotepaper
was cut in two and .Miss Pally Haw

best letters. Then her mother's best
hat and laoe mitts were borrowed.
Sh did not stop to a-k for llieni, so
-lire was she that the object of her call
would iinike her willing to len I 1 1 n 1 1 1 .
The baby was cro-s that afternoon
and would not o.j to sleep, and Patty
wa- in despair for fear 1 er vi-it could
nol be made. Hut at last she was free,
and siiniinoniiie; all her courage she
mounted the massive sl"iie steps, card
in hand, and ran;: the I t'll. The tall
fooliinii w ho opened the door -tared
in astonishment at the tpieer little

"Don't send her away. The niis-tre-s
is in one of hep wur-l spells, and
if ans ihiiio can brine; her out id' il a

So Thomas gravely leil the way to

Thomas placed her a chair ninl de

he-it .led for a moment and Hu ll
a-ketl. "Is there am tiling spec al J nil

"Ycs'm." an-weretl Polly. "Il is
about your carriage. I slioultl like to

ook of astonishment sl.e hasiened to
add, "It's for Patience she's lame,

"I do a think I ipiile umlcr-laml

tin not know who Patience is."
"W by, she's the little :irl over to
Ihe ho-pilal."
Ami Patty, fnrjrettino; Ih.'t she inu-t
hold her heatl very -till on a unit of
her hat, which was very iniieh too
laroe, I oddi'd toward the hll.ldiliL.
Pown dropped the hat to her shoulders,
eoniple ely hiding her fat face. Site
ha-leiied to pui it back, eriin-oii with
eml'ai raiiienl, slealine; a tpii. k

could have told from Mr-. Miichin ne'.s
face but that -lie was aeru-lomeii to
have her visitor-' hat-extinui-li lliein
like a pair til' snullel's.
ISv a few words she succeeded in
making Pally fee' at ra-e and w as iis
tenin with interest to the story of
Patient P.
"Tell her when you see her aaiu
that I shall be very uhnl to take her to
the wood- tomorrow if il is plea-aiil;
and my mall i- in er loo bu-y to drive
me." shf added, " ilh a smile.
Pally, full id' excitement, ran home
to her mother, forget liny the furrowed
hat
"Why, Patty llawkin-!" she cried,
angrily, jiiviuy her a little shake,
where have ymi been with my hat?"
"I've been to tall on Mrs. Much
more," an-w i re. I Pally , eauerlv, "ami
-he a-ked me to come anaill."
"Well. mu are tin1 lii"-t pie-uinp-lioui

Ami Mr-. Hawkins, fopyetiiii her
xevalion. bui-t into peals of linin'
laughter. "Asked yo.i to t oine ayaiii)

S' e didn't lauh at all." cried
Pally, the tears stal ling to In r eyes,
and she's c.tiii to take . .tieiiee to
ride."
True to her word. Mrs. Miichmore
ealleil for Patience Ihe nest dav . atitl
il seemed In her as she sat h Ihe child's
sitle that she looked at the trees, ti e

That was only the beitiniii;: of
many drive- for Patience, anil before
