No, we don't want It exactly, but an old woman wants and needs It, and we would like to give hef one. She is really a very old woman and lives all by herself, and the little stove which she haa now is really In very bad condition. The oven Is all worn out and she cannot use It at all! in fact, the whole stove Is Worn out. It probably was alright in its younger days, but it is not of much use now. This old woman who is an optimistic and happy old soul for all that she has been -through, says that she would iust as soon have a man around the house as the stove, because It smokes all the time.

But really she does need a stove and needs one badly. A small cook stove is what she Wants, because she Is all alone and a big stove would be unnecessary, although most any would do, for she coum ppooaDiy trade It off for a email cook stove. We would like to do something to make this old woman's last days as happy as pussioie. tsne has a very hard time to get along, but with all of her struggles, her nps and downs, and her age, she is very cheerful through it "all and very uncomplaining.
