Mrs. Mary Whiting, who was thrown from a buggy four weeks ago Friday, is rapidly recovering from what threatened to be a very serious accident. The hip was not broken as was thought, only dislocated, and Mrs. Whiting says that the hauling and mauling she received from the handling and the debris of the accident shot the hip back into its place. But the end of the femur bone is broken and Mrs. Whiting is lying in a cradle of sandbags to keep from moving. On account of her excellent physical condition, her cheerfulness, hopefulness, and resolution, Mrs. Whiting is recovering rapidly. She is transacting her usual business in bed, and says, with a lovely submission, that her accident came about for some good purpose.

In about two weeks Mrs. Whiting expects to be able to walk on crutches.
