she descended to the kitchen; where she grabbed a shawl and ran to a near neighbor. "Yes, Mandv, I'll come as quick as I can," was Mrs. Burk's answer to her tap ou the window. She flew back home, found the lamp on the stairs where she had left it, and the house all quiet. "Where's Solomon?" asked Mrs. Burk, soon after her arrival. " Cone after the doctor." "Ami none too soon," said the elder lady, looking critically at the sick child.
