For Poor Children.

The creche, or public nursery for poor children, established in the City of Buff falo through the charity of Mr. Benjamin Fitch, was modelled after a similar in- stitution in Brussels. Concerning its operation in Brussels, MT. J. O. Put nam, the United States Minister there, writes as follows to Mir. Fitch: "In this city of about 35O,O inhabitants are ten ereches. The mother-creche was established about forty years ago. It consists of two large buildings, con nected by third, all of three stories, with garden attached. In the winter season it has about sixty little children, who come in the morning and leave at night, under the charge of seven nurses. In the summer, when mothers find more work than in the winter, about 200 children are left daily at this creche. They are admissible when nine days old. and may be brought there until about seven years of age. when they are trans ferred to public schools. There are about 300 cradles in this creche, and a series of school rooms. The creche is established in all the large towns of Bel gium, and is one of the favored chari- ties of the people. The charge to the mothers for the service of the creche is two cents per day."
