| Year in New York Alone-Country
Homes Provided In Cases Where
Practicable.
AT one Of the vacation Bible classes
last summer, some tenement children
were taught a word-guessing game.
One of the words selected was
home" The little girl whose turn it
was to guess failed to get clue, and q
boy trying to help her, said, Think Of
something that smells awful and you
want to get away from Quick" The
child guessed "house." The dirt and
foul atmosphere of his home is dis
gushing to even the tenement child
himself yet home is the childs great
est necessity. Authorities on the sub
1ect strongly advoca.e thas private
fortunes of philanthropists as wet as
state and municipal funds be devoted,
not to building institutions for depen-
dent children, but to pensioning wild
ows with families and finding foster
parents for orphans.
OF the 100000 children under IA
years Of age who form 1S per cent Of
the population Of New York City, 25,-
GOO are homeless waits. About half Of
these forlorn little ones are babies be-
tween the ages of two and four.
The causes that operate to bring
about this pitiable condition are those
that fill the warehouses; and prisons
death Of one or both parents, injury
through accident, consumption, vice,
crime, inability to obtain work and in
competence, desertion, juvenile de
pravity.
Many Half Orphans.
Complete orphanage is less frequent
than is generally supposed. In most
cases that come under the attention OF
the charities associations, the children
are half orphans. However when the
father is the surviving parent, the re.
suit as far as the breaking up of the
home is concerned Is the same. A
man rarely succeeds In keeping his
children together. If they are very
young a woman's care Is imperative,
and where poverty prevents the hiring
OF nurses, the charitable institution
is the alternative. If widow Is left
with a family the childr,l stand a
better chance, COR not only is 1t motor
ious fact that a mother will work
harder and more effectively than
father to keep the brood together, but
the charities commissioners, recogniz-
ing the value Of even the poorest kind
of home to the child, will give sub.
stantial, IL limited, aid to that end.

Professor jerks, as he proceeded to
read an inscription on the card. 1t
read:
"Some years ago, on the occasion of
a visit to Atlanta, enjoyed the pleas
ure Of meeting your father, and I
would be deeply sensible of the privi-
lege and honor Of shaking hands with
his son."
''How old was the man that sent
up this card?' asked Professor J-nks
of the bellbOy.
about 80, SIR" said the belIboy.
A thought clouded the brow Of Pres
ident Roosevelt's representative for a
moment. Then he wrote something OH
the back Of the card and handed it
back to the bellboy. The something
on the back of the card read:

OFFICERS OF WISCONSIN ACADEMY OF
SCIENCE.
An A american Peerless.

The countess Of Oxford, although
her portrait is rarely seen in any il
Illustrated paper, is one of the most in
teresting and remarkable of the Anglo
American peeresses. Her sporting rec
ord is quite exceptional, and, together
with her husband-now the head of
the Walpole family-she has travelled
in search Of sport in many little known
countries, and she is probably one of
the few women who have enjoyed the
excitement of tarpon fishing, Lord Or
ford's favorite outdoor amusement.
Lady Oxford was Miss Louise Corbin,
the daughter Of a great New York
railway magnate. Though she may
count among London hostesses-she
enteItajued a good deal last season
she SPENDS most of her life in her
Norfolk home, splendid old Manning
ION hall, which is surrounded by wa
fer, tie rcGat having an area of three
acres. There are many fine historical
portraits in the house, including one
Of hapless Amy Robsart. At Man
ningt0n hall there are also many relics
Of that great statesmen, Sir Robert
N'alpoIe, from whom Lord Oxford is
descended. Lady Oxford, who has a
pretty young daughter not yet out,
takes an active interest in the Prim-
rose league, and her habitation ranks
high among those which owe their be-
ing to the great ladies of Norfolk.

Had His HaDis FuII-

The death Of Senator David Wark,
the oldest member of the Canadian
Parliament, recalls an anecdote which
illustrates his remarkable indepen-
dance. AT the age of 1O1 he was still
holding the seat which had been his
for almost half century. During his
last years his family had been worried
about his habit Of travelling alone in
midwinter from his home in Frederick
ton, n. B., to his post at Ottawa. They
urged him to let his daughter accom-
pany him. Senator Wark would have
none Of her. "a man of my age" he
said, "has all he can do taking care of
