HUNGRY SUPPLICANTS FED.
A Chicago Hospital and It's Singular
Method of Dispensing

Belief in the Divine principle that the
hungry shall be fed has led the sisters
of charity in certain Chicago hospital
to segregate one portion of their build.

niless wanderers. While this section Of
the hospital outwardly resembles q
prison, it is comfortably furnished, and
those who enter it's portals find hope
and encouragement to continue the bat.
tie of life.
For years the sisters were annoyed by
the depredations committed upon their
premises by INDECENT characters. It was
this and their desire not to turn the
hungry away that induced them to pre-
pare their haven for the foodless. They
summoned a carpenter and informed
him what they required. His ingenuity
solved the problem, and after few
days work the dining-room for the pen
niless was completed.
The entrance is at the northern end
Of the basement. It is found usually by
some mysterious sign which the last
applicant has left behind. The hungry
supplicant raps at the grated door, and
is surprised to see it slide back noise
lessly, as if in response to his magic
touch. He hears voice bid him "Cohe
in" Somewhat awed by his quiet re-
ception, he enters the corridor, and
turns to his right. Half dozen steps
carry him to another grated door, which
opens into dimly lighted room. Reas-
sured by the jet of light. he shuffies
forward and seats himself in an easy
chair at a clean, iron-topped table, the
door of the room swinging to and snap
ping behind him. He is prisoner for
the time being, but kindly voice of q
sweet-faced sister dispels the queer
feeling which came over him when he
observed the resemblance of his quar-
ters to prison.
A lift drops at the side from an upper
floor, and the sister, who appears to be
ninistering to his wants with mechan-
teal assistance, advises him to help him
self. He inspects the dishes as he trans
.ers them to the table, and finds that
he has an excellent meal before him.
Feeling like lord, he sits down and dis
poses of the tempting food. The future
looks more roseate as he finishes and
arises to replace the empty dishes in the
lift. He hears the door open again, and
passes out, lowly muttering his thanks
in an audible tone to his unseen bene-
factor as he returns to the sunlight
