All that she was denied in life—money, fine wine, good food, rich clothes—aré hers in death. The same tribal tradi- tion that surrounded her short lttle life on this planet with poverty and misery has given her a rich dowry to take with her on the long,-cold journey Into the great unknown. The hands of time “were turned back a thousand vears in the ceme- tery this afternoon during the hour baby Mary was being interred with all of the honors of“the ancient rites of her tribal ancestors.

The sage opened a bot- tle of rare wine and emptied its con- tents upon the casket. Bundles of food, bags of bread and bits of fruit were lowered onto the casket—all to sustain the life of the spirit they fully expected to awake 3,000 years from today. ‘ By the time the mourners had ceased bestowing their last tribute upon the S| tiny member of their clan who had embarked upon the great adventure, | the casket could barely be seen burfed beneath the gifts. it Then the sage signaled for K —_— . 04% %0 o% % <%0 o2 o0 s% st0 00 e% o oteetestectetoetestotostecde | L S S s a0 R R R e s | Hemstitching, Picot Edging, 10c Yd.
