"Oh, it's nothing but a big needle six or eight inches long, threaded with coarse cord. It must be drawn through the flesh and left there for a while. " Then in a tone so low that only the mother could hear, he said, "Don't pay much at- tention to her. She'll never have those spells un- less there is somebody around to see her. " He walked into the other room and took up his hat and case. "I left some powders on the table, " he said to the mother. "You may give her one just be- fore dinner and ...another tonight. " "Will it make any difference if she doesn't take it till tonight?" "Not a bit. " "Pa's gone and I didn't 'low to git any dinner today. " At this announcement Mary heard something between a sigh and a groan and turning, saw a rosy-cheeked boy in the doorway. There was a look of resigned despair on his face and Mary smiled sympathetically at him as she went out. How many lads and lassies could have sympa- thized with him too, having been victims to that widespread feeling among housewives that when "Pa" is gone no dinner need be got and some- times not much supper.
