BABY ON DOOR STEP.
just What Wichita Couple Wanted
and They Will Keep 1t.


Wichita, Kan, Jan. 4.-Family con-
versation at the home of John Ellis was
disturbed last night by loud raps at a
side door. The talk ceased for a mo-
ment and a member of the family went
to the door. Guests were expected and
it was believed they had arrived. Tuck
ed against the screen door on the inside
was a baby-a wide awake, big-eyed,
smiling boy. The infant was dressed in
costly clothing. The person who had
raped at the door had disappeared and
no idea of the parentage of the child
could be obtained. The infant was "a
hours old.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ellis. were entertaining
their daughter and her husband, Mr.
and Mrs. T. A. Kalb, when the infant
was found on the step Mr.. and Mrs
Kalb fell in love with the cooling. smil-
ing baby at first sight. When they re-
turned to their home in this city from
the Ellis home they took the baby with
them.
I'VE are not trying to find the baby's
parents said Mrs. Kalb- ut is the
sweetest little baby we ever saw. Keep
it?-of course we are going to keep it."
Mrs. Kalb believes the baby was left
on the Ellis doorstep by some one ia
miliar with the arrangement of the
house. The side door at which it was
left would be overlooked by stranger.
Mr.. and Mrs Kalb are the owners and
managers of the cigar store in the

reward, and kindly deeds should be
done simply for the sake of doing them,
and not at all for the thanks we get.
But as long as human nature is hui
man, I fancy that ingratitude will al
ways tend to curdle the milk of hui
man Kindness, and graciousness will be
apt to make the cream rise on its sur
face.
If the next time that little waitress
sees a chance TO be helpful to some one
and passes it by, it seems to me that
the blame of that kindness omitted will
belong partly. at least to the woman
who did not say, Thank you"
When a woman fails to thank a man
Tor giving his seat in the car. she makes
him just SO much less apt to repeat the
chivalrous act for some one else Other
women will probably suffer for her
ungraciousness.
The most gracious possible reception
of any kindness shown him is a duty
that every one owes to himself, of
course, but even more to the world at
large.
Any one who receives a. kindness with
genuine hearty gratitude may thereby
stimulate the flow of the milk of hu-
man kindness.
Any one who receives a kindness I'M
graciouSly may thereby rob the world
of many kind acts.

Mr.. and Mrs E. L. Copeland enter
tanned at dinner last night at the To-
peka club for Miss Nellie Millspaugh
and Mr.. Harold Copeland. The decora-
lions, which were in pink and green,
were unusual and effective. The flow
ers used were begonias and rosebuds.
A basket of begonias occupied the CEN
ter of the table, and the place cards
were decorated with begonia blossoms
in water coIorS. FsavorS of potted be-
gonias were given. The loving cup was
wound with smilax and pink rosebuds,
and bouquets of pink roses were used
in the parlor. The decorations were
completed by candlesticks set with pink
candles. This was one of the prett1eSt
of the parties that have been given for
Miss Millspaugh, and was a pleasing
climax to the delightful entertainments
in her honor.
The engagement which terminates in
the wedding tonight has certainly been
attended by variety of incident,
pleasant and unpleasant. There was
the series of showers, teas, and dinners,
then came the holiday dances, and
through them all the pleasures and an
noyances of getting together the trous-
Seau then the fire at the house, with
the rescue of the new wardrobe and
the wedding gifts, and finally the storm.

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON

Every time any one fails to acknow-
ledge kindness properly, he does a
great deal more than prove himself a
churi and hurt his benefactor's feel
ings.
He also runs the risk of hurting a
great many other people.
I thought of that yesterday when I
saw pretty little scene with a rather
distinctly unpleasant denouement.
At the table across from the one
where was dining, woman with two
little children was in the throes of get
ting the youngsters into their outer
garments
She was tying the baby's bonnet
strint,s. while the older child though
hardly more than three or four years
old, was trying bravely, though not
very successfully, to. struggle into her
coat alone.
A busy little waitress who was sour
rying past with tray piled high with
dishes, saw the child's predicament,
stopped, set the tray down and helped
wriggle the obstinate coat on.
The little scene took place in a rest
aurant where the mattresses do not re-
ceive tips, so I knew that there could
be no Interior motive for the deed, and
I looked instinctively towards the moth
er for the pleasure of seeing the radi-
ant smile that I felt sure must ac-
knowledge such a gracious act

mother simply must have seen the whole

The Cause of Colds
Good Advice Regarding the
Prevention of Coughs
and Colds

If people would only fortify and
strengthen the system, the majority of
cases of coughs, colds and pneumonia
might be avoided. These troubles are
frequently due to weakness. which pro-
duces a catarrhal condition of the mu-
cous membrane, which is an internal
skin of the body. When this skin is
weakened it becomes easily infected
with germs which cause many of the
diseases to which flesh is heir. Healthy
mucous membranes are essential safe
guards of the body's general health.
An excellent aid in the prevention
of coughs, colds, pneumonia, and such
like infectious diseases is a remedy
that will prevent or cure catarrh.
We have a remedy which we hon
estly believe to be unsurpassed in ex-
cellence for the prevention of coughs,
colds and all catarrhal conditions. 1t
is the prescription of a famous physi-
clan, who has an enviable reputation
of thirty years of cures gained through
the use of this formula. We promise to
make no charge for the medicine should
it fail to do as we claim. We urge
everybody who has need of such a
medicine to try Rexall Mucu-Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could not
afford to make such statements and
give our own personal guarantee to this
remedy If we were not prepared to
prove the reasona bleness of our claim
in every particular, and we see no rea-
son why any one should hesitate to ac-
cept our offer and try it. We have two
sizes of Rexall Mucu-Tone, prices so
cents and $780, Sometimes a 50-cent
bottle is sufficient to give marked re-
lief As general thing the most
chronic case is relieved with an aver
age of three large bottles You can OBJ

ser Drug Co, 523 Kansas avenue.

over hot, barren desert, when we
reached Vegas Here was found
large spring. and beautiful patches of
willows and lovely spreading meadows.
The rich land we divided off TO each
OF the 80 men a garden spot of equal
Size. Near by grew n kind of dwarf
timber scattered about, and n sort of
brush called "mesquit." We fenced

Other crops would do the same, But

Near here we made adobes and built
two-story fort surrounding a 1O-rod
square with bastions and port holes at
each corner, with wide gateway in
each wall. Two miles north of the fort
were three OF four small springs, which
we diverted to the desert land.
