On the mantel were some group photos of children, a motto and a vase or two, On the wall, hung rather high, were three unframed oll paintings—gifta, no doubt, of long ago when it was the crase for everyone to take painting leasons, But on a level with one’s eyes wore the mottoes: “Hitherto the Lord hath helped me,” “Little children, let us love one another for love in of God.” The woman relaxed in this atmoephere and the baby felt at home. It was only natural. In an adjoining room, evidently used for family worship, was an old-fashioned organ with one pedal broken. Everywhere the curtains were clean and between two of the windows of phe parlor was an old-fashioned “whatnot.” That made the Wonthn smile, for she remembered that her grand mother had had one simfar to this On Mother's whatnot were some handdecorated shells, all carefully dusted.
