with ladder, trying to get it nearer
the window, when suddenly man was
seen to dart in the burning building
and up the stairs that creaked and
swayed under his weight. A moment
more and he reached the trembling lit
tie figure, tore off his own hat and
pressed it over the child's face, and
started back on his perilous journey.
Down on the sidewalk Mamie stood
breathless, white, trembling, for in the
rescuer she had recognized Tim, and in
the same instant she had known that
she loved him. All that was petty, and
mean, and selfish in her nature shriv-
eled up in the fierce light of that revela-
tion, and something nobler took its
place-something grand enough to
make her even willing to risk the man
she loved for great deed, and with a
sudden impulse she turned to the
crowd and cried
"He is risl1ing his life for the kid.
Give him a cheer, boys; give him a

ties that will make him in the future
a respected and law.abiding citizen.
Juvenile offenders of the law are no
longer placed with the older and more
hardened criminals of the prisons and
penitentiaries. for every State has its
reiormatory institutions for both girls
and boys, some of them conducted on
the most advanced plans of child.say.
ing work.
A recent visit to the State reform
school at Rochester, n. Y. gave an in.
teresting opportunity for a study Of
some oil the conditions surrounding
child life in large penal institution.
This school contains between seven
and eight hundred boys and girls OF
every nationality and color. The courts
OF this State do not intend to commit
to the reform school children younger
than twelve years or older than six

In this reform school every moment

the time the boys and girls rise In the
morning until they go to bed at night
The boys are required to rise at six
and go Immediately to the lavatory
and take shower bath OF cold water
no matter what the weather is. Each
boy has In the lavatory his own towel
brush, comb and tooth brush. After
the bath they return to their dormito
ries and go through stated amount
Of physical exercise; then. aftei
dressing, they are marched in squads
70 the dining halls for breakfast.
Our little party was following one
OF these squads on the way To the din
ing hall, when, To the surprise OF ev
cry one, an abrupt halt was called.
The officer in charge had been mott
fed that one of the combs was miss
ing from the lavatory.
Every comb that had been used tina
morning must be in its place befor,
the boys could have their breakias
and II the missing one was not foun,
the boys of that company could no
have any.
Six or seven boys were sent t
search, and after few minutes tn,
comb was found behind sink, wher,
some careless boy had dropped 1t. Tn,
ranks were then formed again an,
the boys marched on double quicl
time to the messroom.
