THE BABIES.

In the nursery we found the babies Of
the Home. Two little fellows, scarcely
two years OF age, sat demurely in small
cane chairs on either side of broad'iire
place, apparently perfectly satisfied with
what they had seen Of the world and the
people in it. Even they turned with u
glad smile Of welcome to the door, when
they heard the Matron's voice.
Around the wall kwere the neat
little cribs into which these babies,
and the little ones in the room below, are
nightly tucked in-not BY their mothers,
but by another, with the tenderness en-.
kindled by pity. In this room n nurse
constantly remains. Everything looks
comfortable, but it is plain that the room
is too small for go many sleepers. In
one Of the beds was n little girl who is
suffering from severe cold, the only sick
child in the Home. The children are re.
moved to this room when i'll, and cared
for by the nurse. Where there is case
that should be isolated from the remain.
der Of the children, the patient is taken
care Of in the sewing room and inlirmary,
on the first floor. In this latter apart.

dent from fire, gives heat. A wooden
bench runs along three sides Of the wall,
and the rest OF the floor Is clear. Here,
Saturday afternoon, were gathered about
twenty children from three to eleven
sears Of age. When We entered
they appeared to have been engaged in
some sort Of play, and when the door
was opened they ranged themselves on
the bench and folded their arms in II
position OF attention. The Matron asked
them TO make n bow TO to the visitor,
which they did. They turned their
bright faces 10 the Matron with evident
pleasure at her presence, and only look
ed at the visitor as II they expected him
to say some big words to them about being
good. They were disappointed agreea.

do the talking, and she didn't talk at the
children, but aboutthem,
The Matron explained that all but ten
Of the children attend the Third Ward
public school. Those who remain at

and her assistant, Miss Haftstein. They
arc generally unrestrained, and live as
they would-Nt home, the object being to
make the place rs much like home as
possible. The happy faces Of the little
ones told how successful the effort had
been.

Though the Home does most humane
and worthy work In feeding and clothing
the hungry and neglected children Of the
city, II does not count its whole duty
done in that way. It aims to save these
children from the haunR Of crime TO
which they would otherwise be exposed.
For every one thus rescued the entire
community becomes debtor to the Home.

children while at the Home with refined
and wholesome moral influences, and by
placing them in worthy families when
they leave, the Home. The success at
tending these efforts have been extremely
