She has gone through much, she looks ill, she needs the rest and nursing she can only get at home." He ceased speaking and drew himself up slowly, pursing his stern lips.

"That's awful good of you, Ma, an' I sure would like to have Jim over to supper, but he's so fond of his sister he won't go anywheres without her, you see."
