she, unless Mnrtln Dlcber appears In
reality as ho looms up In hor dreams
of tho past.
This woman wan born In Rholn
pfalz, Germany, on February 10, 1S33.
Sho was the daughter of a gamokecp
er. Martin Dlcber, a young soldier In
tho German nrmy, marched through
her village ono day and then began
n romance that might havo been. Sho
was eighteen then. Ho wanted to
marry hor. Sho was willing, but Mar
tin had thrco moro years to serve
IIo suggested nn elopement and again
she was willing. Tho pair started for
Antworp, whoro lay a ship that would

until they arrived. But Martin never
did arrive Tho police pulled him
from his place of hiding on the vessel
nnd sent him back. Bertha sailed
alone.
When this girl of nineteen reached
this shoro sho found that tho "friend"
had spent tho monoy. Sho sat on her
trunk at Castle Garden and sighed

ment was soon found for her In tho
Kurtz family and It la with a grand
child of her first employer alio now

"To keep n servant should bo very
ensy. Making a success of tho plan
requires only that sho be treated as p.

and human weaknesses. My employ
ers havo looked upon mo In that way
and that la why I haven't mado a
chango In 57 years and 7ouldn't want
