m ceth:e;oa f.vssion. Ilov* ami Girl* In Cliinnso'it “Day Nurwry”—Lit tin Oiien at Dinner. There is one bright spot in the very heart of the ••loveo” district. It is the' Be the*la Day Nursery. It is in a wretched ueit;hlxirh<Kxl—a district win tion and sin and sorrtw abound. The population mixture," including the v element anil the most rile cl: the levee white population. Mte frequented "by bad characters by day, and are the scene of brawls and fights by night. Dives and dens and gambling re sorts, and doubtful lodging jilnces, make the place one to lie avoided by all re spectable people. It is in the very heart of this place that the Women’s Christian Temperance union is carrying on its most efTectivo local mission work. But its most flourishing department is the Bcthesda day nursery. The work of this branch is presided over by Sirs. William Sevant, who seemti to Ite peculiarly adapted for charitable work. The nur sery was opened in November, 1KS0, and from that date it has boen the homo of the halo from the' little thing 2 weeks old to tho child of 7. There the little ones livo and chatter and coo and crow, and cry and laugh anil eat and drink during tho day time, while their wid owed or deserted mothers are out scrubbing or washing, striving to earn a livelihood for her family. Mrs. Sevant lias been very successful in her work, but, of course, does not receive tile mor al donations in aid of tho little ones that she desires. She juu secured ns matron Mrs. M. B. Smith, who lias tho immedi ate care of the nursery. It is located on tile second and third floors of tho build ing, immediately alxive the mission < '• ;v |, :,n<l is fitted up with a view to i < • of the babies. Mothers who mv striving to earn an honest living and Who are obliged to work out by the day, may carry their littlo ones to the nursery in tlio morning und call for' ilium again at night when they return from tho hard day's toil to their miserable ltomes. They asked to pay each day ten cents, if t'li y cm; fire cents if they cannot uilord ten; two rents if they can spare it, mid nothing if they have naught to give. The reporter was taken into tho nursery the other afternoon, in Uio midst of tli® twenty-three babies, and tlie sight that met lii.i astonished gaze cannot well lie described. If may be said at tho outset j that Hit) nursery clothes and feeds these I littlo ones, as well as furnishes them a day homo. Hence they were all clean and neatly clad. Tho youngest —r.i :!:roo Weeks old. It was lugging uway at a well filled Imttlo for dear life, and linil an extensive growth of black hair. Its eyes were jet black und piercing, and there was a smile noon its fat little face. In tho ‘:eril> room” babies were slcep- ing and cooing and Crying and laughing and ^rolling auxjh the floor, it wits a fit!* 'Cl sight. To*"S>eUje babies in the drnjng room is worth the walk to the ursery. There ere throe long, narrow * _ Ono Is about twelve incites high from tlio^Joor. and the littlo chairs that surround give the scene an old fashioned appearance. Tim other two are a littlo higher, lint the “high chair" business lias Ihs-ii aliolislietl. Twenty babies at dinner! Well, it is worth seeing. It takes four nurses to pick up spoons. And tiro baby food. It is de licious, which is evidenced by the keen appetites of tho babies. They are a friendly lot at tho table, und nre allowed considerable latitude. Johnny dips his spoon, for instance, into kiddie's dish. As an apprcciiu. i of this IMdio lands a left hand full efb end und milkjust under Johnny's left eye. Spoons are thrown asldo und a hair pull tug of war sets in, which is lovin, ly terminated by the gentle hands of the nurse. .Such is lumpy baby life at tho Bethcsda nursery. —Chicago Ilerald. To Save Life Frequently requires prompt action. An hohr’s delay waiting for the doctor may. be attended with serious consequences, especially in cases ot Croup, Pneumonia, and other throat and lung troubles. Hence, no family should be without a bottle of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, which has proved itself, in thousands of cases, the. best Emergency Medicine ever discovered. It gives prompt relief and prepares tho way for a thorough cure, which is certain to bo effected by its continued use. S. H. Latimer, M. P., Mt. Vernon, Ga., says: “I have found Ayer's Cherry Pectoral a perfect cure for Croup in all cases. I have known the worst eases relieved In a very short time by its use; and I advise all families to use it in sud den emergencies, for coughs, croup, &c. M A. J. Eidson, M. D., Middletown, Tenn., says: “ l have used Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral with the best effect in my practice. This wondetful prepara tion once saved my life. I had a con stant cough, night sweats, was greatly reduced in flesh, and given up by my physician. One bottle and a lmlf of the Pectoral cured me.” ” T cannot say enough in praise of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,” writes K. Uragdon. of Palestine, Texas, “believ ing as I do that, but for its use, I should long since have died.” Ayer’s Clieny Pectoral, rUKI'AUICD BY Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mas3.

As there wao not a second copy of tho orchestra scoro and the song could not lie sung without an accompaniment, "I’apa, Sweet Mam ma and Me" had to retire until the work of orchestration could again lie done. “I can tell of stranger tilings than that,” said an old time actor. “You have no idea of the rapacity of tlio thieves who rob traveling professionals, nor of their |x>rsistency. I knew a leader who laid a ■violin which ho prized very highly and watched zealously—even slept with it under his pillow. Well, sir, a fellow up in Muskegon, I think it was, took a notion to liavo that violin. Ho followed the company from town to town, and after a week’s cat at a rat hole watching, he got an opportunity and sneaked it.

Senor Isidoro Errazuriz, tiie Chilian immigration ngent in Europe, has been ordered to offer free passage to Chili to twenty Irish families who are exjiert in' the act of dressing flax.
