YANKING BABY'S ARM.
A Practice Among Women That e
Too Common and Extremely
Dangerous.

One afternoon a smartiy gowned wom-
an came down the steps of fashionable
New York apartment house, leading a
child by the hand. She was evidently in
hurry and her quick, long strides made
mighty pace for the tiny feet, which
finally lost the power to take any steps
at all, writes Bertha H. Smith, in Good
Housekeeping. The woman, unwilling
to be delayed by the child, hurried on,
dragging the little one after her, deaf
to the protesting wall that came from
under the big hat atop the little figure
at her side. On she went, anxious, no
doubt, to make up time lost in hunting a
misplaced hatpin, in lingering for final
word Of gossip, or 1ong-drawn-out
good-by-one of the hundred little de-
lays that make women always in q
hurry and never on time
The people she met paid no heed. II
one of them turned and gave a passing
look at the pair, 1t was merely to won
der absently why the child cried. But
from across the street the driver of a
coal cart, busy unloading coal into a
hole in the sidewalk, caught sight of this
woman, and with a brief exclamation
intended for no one il particular, ran
after her, calling loudly: Madam, il
you don't pick up that child, I'll call a
policeman. You'd ought to be ashamed
to treat baby worse'n you would a bull
pup"
At first the mother paid no attention
to the man, unless inwardly to resent his
interference. But as he repeated his
threat she stopped, impatiently set the
child on his feet, wiped his tears away,
scolded him little for crying, then went
on at pace the baby legs could keep.
while the driver turned back to his cart,
muttering: eff I'd struck one of them
horses there'd been a dozen women's
heads out of the windows yelling at me
to stop, and they'd let another woman
yank the arm clean out of a baby's body
and never say a word"

Coffee Hint.

The Chinese method of infusing coffee
in cold water is said to eliminate the
tannic element. This method may be
tried as culinary experiment. The
coffee will be found very strong and of
a rich flavor. Put the usual amount OF
coffee, ground very fine, into cold wa
ter in a glass fruit jar. Cover tightly
and let stand overnight. In the morn
ing loosen the cover and set the jar in
a vessel of hot water. Let the water
boil until the coffee is piping hot, when
strain into hot coffee pot and send
to the table. If wanted for after-dinner
coffee, make the infusion early in the
morning.-N. Y. Post.
