Levy called her daughter. and told her
to take Archie up to their rooms on the
sixth floor and give him some bread.
When the two children got up there
Archie was not content with the amount
of bread his sister gave him, so he went
out on the fire escape to complain to his
mother, who was still sitting on the
doorstep.
Over the manhole of the fire escape
an ironing board had been placed, and
as the child stepped on it it turned and
let him down. A man who was passing
in the street was startled by II heavy
blow on the shoulder, and turned to
find that the youngster had fallen on
him, and then bounded off to tue side
walk.
The boy had cash in his scalp and
was taken to Gouverneur Hospital,
where it was said that he was not seri-

Fine stage and dress stockings are

The Spanish were among the first to

White silk stockings go with tho

Silk stockings should be cleaned, like

In their native lands, Scotch and

Use little OK gall and no alkali in
