Baby Rules a Street.

One OF the curiosities of downtown
streets is baby in swaddling clothes.
says the New York Times. An infant
OF tender age appeared on Nassau
street the other day in the arms of its
nurse. 1t attracted no end Of atten-
ton. men and women OF all ages and
all conditions of life turning to look
at IL In the opinion of everybody. ex-
cept the immediate relatives, IL was a
very ordinary baby: it was the mere
fact that it was a baby and was tax
ing an airing in business streets that
made it an object of general interest.
Babies. no doubt. are so thick in the
home neighborhoods of some of those
people who turned to stare that IL Is
hard to walk without falling over one
or more of them; yet SO seldom is a
baby seen in downtown streets that
its occasional presence there is cause
for general wonderment.

says HaFper's Magazine. the superin-

TO repeat the golden text. which had
special reference to mans inability to
serve his Creator and the money god
at one and the same time. The class
failed to respond as it should. when
the superintendent. noticing his own
young hopeful in the ranks. who had
that very morning been drilled thor

response was immediate. though a
slight departure from the original. for
in a voice that was distinctly heard in
