disclosed ancestors who had worked with their hand but these mr follette family had chosen to ignore in favor of one grandfather who had held colonial office and who had sine been mag nified into a personage mr toilette during his lifetime had walked a mile each morning to take th train at sherwood park and had walked back a mil each night until at last he had tired of two peripatetic mllea a day and of eight hour at hi desk and of eternally putting on hi dinner coat when there was no one to see snd ilka old baldwin barn ba had laid him down with a will at his death all income stopped and mrs follette had found herself on e somewhat lonely peak of ax- cluslvtness she could not afford to go with her richer neighbors and she refused to consider sherwood seriously now and than however she accepted invitations from old friends and in return offered such simple hospitality as she could af ford without selfconsciousness she had too a sort of admirable courage her ambitions had been wrapped up in her eon what bar father might have been evans was lobe they had scrimped and saved that ha might go to collage end study law than at that first dread ful cry from across the sess he had
