PUNISHING A BULLY.
It was fortunate for Mrs.Frost that she was so soon called upon to think for others.

It gave her less time to grieve over her husband's absence, which was naturally a severe trial to her.

As for Frank, though the harvest was gathered in, there were plenty of small jobs to occupy his attention.

He divided with Jacob the care of the cows, and was up betimes in the morning to do his share of the milking.
