AAOhiC OpEAlos
The Board of Supervisors of the Free
kindergarten Assertion met at the Y.
NJ. c. A. hall this morning at $3.50
o'clock. Mrs. Hyde presided. About
forty ladies were present. Rooms for
kindergarten schools have been offer
ed free Of rent in Relief Camps l and
2, and the board win establish kinder
gartens in each place, If this action is
approved by the Board of Health.
There are a great many children in
each of these camps, and there is likely
to be for some time. The camps are
somewhat dreary places at best, es
pecially for children, and it is thought
that establishing schools for them viii
be both a kindness to the children, and
aid the management of the camps in
many ways.
The training class of the kindergar-
ten work will meet for the present in
the Chinese kindergarten room under
Chinese church. Mrs. w. w. Hall,
chairman of the publication commit
tee says that owing to changed condi-
tons all the kindergarten schools are
likely to be more cosmopolitan in their
character in the future, at least in the
immediate future than they have been
in the past.
The Castle Home for Children will
be opened at once, subject to approval
ty the Board of Health. Three appll-
cations for admittance have been ap-
proved by the committee. These are
children absolutely without homes eX-
cept such has been provided by the
kindness of people who knew of their
destitute condition.

Something New.

1t has always been conceded that no
ordinary paint equalled an enamel for
all interior decorative purposes, as the
former does not give the beautiful
smooth, mirror-like surface that the
latter does.
The economical housewife Of to-day
has the walls, bath room and bedrooms
enameled, as once done it lasts for
years. Rubbed with soft cloth once
In while, such rooms are kept clean
and healthy with practically nc labor.
Old articles of furniture are made to
look like new with coat of enamel
and give good service for years when
otherwise it would have been neces,
sary to discard them.
In the past the price of enamel has
been almost double that Of paint. but
Florentine Enamel Colors are sold at
the same price as ordinary mixed paint
and come ready for use. This brand Of
enamel is put UP in twentythGee cOlOrS
and comes in all size packages from
pint to gallon cans, and we understand
that nearly all dealers of paint carry
1t in stock on account of the great de-
mand that exists for it. By writing
to the manufacturers. Bradley & Vroo-

Child was Feeding Snake,

The strange sight of a child feeding a
snake was witnessed a few days ago at
Milestone. Washington County. Solo
mon Herbert stated that his little
grandson, Willie Rice, ? years old,
while playing in the yard, shared his
nursing bottle with great, fat, shiny
blacksnake. The child was thought to
have an abnormal appetite. He usually
took his bottle, after being filled, into
the yard, where it was supposed he en-
joyed it himself. One day the bottle
was filed with coffee, we'll diluted with
cream. The little boy went into the
yard, and soon returned for more, cali
ing to his grandfather to go out and see
something. Mr.. Herbert followed his
grandson, who went to where the snake
lay. The babe sucked awhile and then
the snake sucked. When the babe
sucked too long the snake showed signs
Of restlessness. When the bottle was
finished the reptile crawled down a hole
near the cellar door. 1t is thought that
the child has been sharing his bottle
with the snake for many dayS.-Hagers-
