May Point to see the President.
Being questioned about the monetary
situation he said: 81 think there is
marked improvement taxing place now
in the monetary situation in the coun-

helping US wonderfully. It's not only
helping us directly, but it is creating
feeling of confidence with US and
materially assists the improvement.
There has been feeling of uneasi-
ness all around since the appearance
of a possibi ity of stringency in the
market, but now much more hopeful
feeling prevails and danger seems to
havepassed.

Phil Armour's philanthropy is
we'll known, even outside of Chicago.
His most recent charity is the estab-
lishment on the South Side of day
nursery for the infant children of the
poor. He has erected there sub
stantial building on a plot Of ground
sufficient for the pasturage of seven
cows, and has laid out fine play
ground for the children, fitted up with
hammocks and dimiuutive chairs and
tables. Every baby that is brought
there is welcomed and fed to its hearts
content on fresh milk and bread or
crackers. There has been an average
attendance of ninety children day.
