they all obey her perfectly. She has been teaching here for several years, and came to forget a sorrow by losing her- self entirely in her splendid work, but even now she is unable to look at a certain finger on her left hand without her eyes becoming dim. She has shown herself the true woman and is cheerfully instructing her pupils in far off Texas." I was scarcely surprised at all when I read what Maude is now doing; because I remembered how she always studied Political Science. She knew every detail of the law of the fair country. Not only did she study the laws, but also the political movements in the land, and then compared them with those of former times. Read what my roll relates. "Miss M. M. Stremmel, the greatest female lawyer of Maryland, had charge of the --- case in the Court of Appeals, at Annapolis, April 23, 19l4. Several of the most prominent male lawyers of the State were also interested in the case. The public waited ·with impatience to know how it would be decided. The arguments on both sides were very good, but Maude could plead better than the lawyers of the stronger sex, and with her pleading and well- founded points, she easily led the Judges to decide in her favor."

He is primarily "The Children's Doctor." The scene in his office on a Fourth of July is most pitiful-ring after ring at the door simply announces that another little child has been injured by fire-works, they arrive until his office is literally filled. He works from early morning until mid-night, dressing burns, setting bones and attending most carefully to all kinds of troubles that the little ones have gotten into. With all he is most patient and gentle; this is easily shown by the fact that he has so many patients, for no parent would take a child to a physician unless he was very gentle and kind. Not only on this holdiay is he busy, but always from morning until night is he busy, caring for the children of the poor as well as those of the rich." . "Society in Maryland's Capital has been very much excited for quite a long while about a recital to be given by Miss Gardiner in Music Hall for the benefit of the Fresh Air Fund. There are several participants, but you will only be interested in "Cad." This is her first public appearance in Annapolis, but she has already made her repu- 81
