Solid Comfort.

“I don’t see how I’d git along without Mary, nohow,” Mrs. Blucher observed, pausing to wipe the perspiration from her aged features and put another ladle of soft soap into the steaming suds, while her daughter’s voice at the piano could be distinctly recognized, floating out from the adjoining parlor ; “I don’t see how I d git along without that gal, nohow. AT ays on these days, when I hev the tiringest work, she jest picks out her nicest pieces, like ‘Sweet rest by and by/ and * Mother’s growing, old’ and sings ’em fur me afore she goes out on the lawn to play croquet with the other young folks. ’Taint every gal as ud be so thoughtful, I kin tell you. Now, most on ’em ud jest bang away with ‘Jordan is a hard road to travel,’ or ‘ Whoop ’em up, Eliza Jane,’ but she ain’t none o’that sort. She’s a pile o’ comfort to me—a pile o’ comfort,” and Mrs. Blucher fanned herself vigorously with her soiled apron, preparatory to running the clothes through the second water. —Toledo American.
