Many times months have elapsed before my husband could find em. ployment, and maybe then it would be only for a few days at the hard est kind of tebor, and he would rm only enough to keep the land lord from ejecting us, Days and Gays he has walked the street look ng for anything that he might find to do, tho he is a skilled mechanic, and always the same an. lower, “We do not need any more help.” He would return home, and oh, the grief that | saw in his face made me forget my own suffering, and my heart would go out to him with pity and love Dear “Ruth,” It is not the fault of this kind, loving husband that you dwell in poverty. It is the laws of the land, that make and keep conditions where a man can not make for himself and family the comfort and plenty that God intends for every man's rightful in heritance, and as long as selfish- |ness and greed exists and not the brotherhood of man, wherein every man is his brother's keeper, we |will have poverty and in plenty. The only way for a woman in our condition is to hav® faith in God and improve our minds by reading literature that will elevate the mind, and we can get so far above worldly things that the sting of poverty will be less, and by love of doing what little we can to do away with these conditions and that Is by wearing a smiling face and making the best of what we have, every woman can be a queen with bare floors and a calico apron if she so wills MRS.
