Lost In Miuooka FaR.

Four little girls from the West Side
started away from home yesterday
morning to visit friends In Dunmore
and by mistake they got on a South Side
car; they rode to the city line and got
of. They wandered along the streets
and inquired for their friends but no
knew for whom they were seeking
and as a consequence they wandered
around until 1t got dark. They were
foOtsore and weary after a fruitless
search in Minooka looking for friends
In Dunmore. John ]. Coyne discovered
their plight and kindly cared for them
and sent them back home. Three Of
them are sisters and their names are
Rose; their parents live in Hyde Park.

that the little one will be all right In a
week.

The mayor of Cincinnati Inns been re-
quested to have sand piles provided, at
municipal expense, in which the chill
drcn of the city may play. The noble-
hearted women who made the request
were actuated by a desire TO put an end
to an alarming increase OF bow
legs among the children Of the
city. Constant walking upon hard
and heated pavements of the city
has, in their opinion, sadly warped the
youthful Cincinnati limb. The women,
bless them, are right, but only partially
so, satirically puts in the Cleveland
News-Herald. The pavementsare bad,
but, in the language OF the poet,
there are Others What the mayor
OF cincinnati should do IS to recon-
mend 70 the council that the frequent
piles Of dark mahogany-colored kegs
which ornament every street In the
city be forbidden under penalty II q

kegs, which are nearly as frequent in
Cincinnati as the inhabitants, are the
real source of the ambulatory crooked
ness Of Cincinnati children.
