LITTLE FOUNDING
Found in Cellar as a Baby, Has
Been Reared by Chill

"HAVE A GOOD TIME HERE
AND DON'T WANT TO LEAVE"
Professional Bad Boy Caused
All Kinds of Trouble at
the Home.

Without parents, as far as she knows,
and not half as well off as many a
Young miss here in town, little Fran
ces Price, as Mr.. and Mrs. Kimball, of
the Children's Aid Society, call her, is
n of the happiest little girls in this
city. She was found when nine months
old in a cellar in Bank street and has
been in the home ever since. She is
now IL years old.
Of course, she has never known ny
other home and does not realize that
her life is any different than the other
children she sees on the street.
Il am happy here" she said today,
$50 why should 1 want to leave? Mr..
kimball is very kind to me and 1 am
learning all sorts of useful things that
/ houid know. And hen l have my
toys and the other girls and boys to
play. with, and we all have a good time
together"
Mr.. Kimball says that in time he will
probably find a home for Frances, but
sthat he will hate to see her go when
the time comes, as both he and his
wife have grown very much attached
to the child.
Az In comparison with this littl. girl"
raid Mr.. Kimball, there was a boy
We had In the home a few months &
who a escaped several times from
an orphan asylum. Finally they re-
fused to take him back and they
brought him to us, I nailed all the
windows, as the police had warned me
of the boys habit of escaping, but he
had not been here more than an hour
when ne crawled through an eight
inch opening and escaped. He was
caught in about an hour and when
brought back was put in the attic,
where L thought he would have no
chance to get away. In a little while,
however, 1 heard a noise there, and
when I went upstairs l found that,
after putting a dummy in his bed. he
had crawled up the chimney to the
roof. l followed him, and when he
saw me he ran along the edge, and, to
my horror, as l went toward him, he
slipped and fell to the ground, a dis
ltance of two stories. I called a doctor
and after an examination had him re-
moved to ST. Barnabas's Hospital. He
had not hurt himself, however, but
that last attempt to escape was too
much m I had him removed to the
City Home.'
There are about sixty children in the
home now, and they are about the
est-behaved children In the city. They
all do some light work in the ~institu-
ton and attend school every morning.
About once a week Mrs. Kimbal takes
the children out for an excursion to
some nearby spot Of interest.

Years Standing.
Meridian, Miss, Sept Is, 1909.
Editor Hattiesburg News.
Dear Sir.

Meridian, Miss, Sept. Is, 1909.
Editor Hattiesburg News.
Dear Sir:
l am a Georgian, on a visit to va
rious parts of your state. l find much
to admire in South Mississippi, nota-
bly, such plucky young cities as Hat
tiesburg. But nothing is of more
promise for the upbuilding of any Sec
ton than a heightened newspaper.
They shape, to very great extent,
the public opinion on mcial. IS well
as economic questions. Therefore,
must congratulate Hattiesburg and
this whole state that they have
sound moral guide in the columns of
your paper. Your stand on the liquor
question is in striking contrast to the
whisky beguiled editorials in the
leading papers of my own state. 1t
is the duty of every lover of clean
government and high morals to give
their support unstintedly to your pa
per.
One admission you make in favor
of the use of whisky, I wish to show
is unnecessary. You say, lin defense
to popular belief, no doubt that
whisky may be good for snake bites,
but after nearly twenty-five years Of
constant research and experience as
physician, wish to state as my
own belief, supported by the most
progressive living physicians, some OF
whom practice where the bite OF
poisonous reptiles is common oc-
currence, that whisky, brandy or any
other form of alcohol is not only not
remedy for snake-bite, but does
actual harm in every case where it is
administered. The old belief that
whisky cures snake-bite has been
abandoned and disproved by thous-
ands of the most competent scien-
tific physicians in all parts of the
world. No form of alcoholic liquor
has any food Or medical value what
soever.
Wishing you abundant success,
