Daughter for Dr.. Tuomy.

No home is complete without the
presence of a child. No heart is
lonely that is full of father and
mother love. To watch the growth
of child and see it develop, day by
day, is the greatest pleasure accorded
to mortals. This pleasure has just
fallen to the lot of DR.. and Mrs.
Tuomy who are rejoicing at the
arrival of a bright baby girl at their
home. a-.. ....... ..-..->... .,y -.
Her eyes are as wide as bluebells,
Her mouth like flower unblown.
Two little bare feet, like white mice,
Peep out from her snowy gown.
And the wee pink fists of the baby
Are never moment still

That dance on the window sill.

WOULD" CHECK EMIGRATION
King Gustav of Sweden Alarmed al
Existinu Conditions. :.

Stockholm, Feb. An an effort to
check emigration from Sweden King
Gustav has just approved plan for a
series of national plays in Swedish
theaters to awaken a more patriotic
feeling among the people. The enter
prise will be pushed with especial
vigor at Gottenburg, where most of
the emigrants bound for America en-
bark.
The king says that emigration has
for years drained Sweden of large
proportion of it's best and most enter
prising blood.
The recent general strike, which
ended with many high class working
men out of positions and still larger
number dissatisfied with labor condi-
lions in Sweden, has given a decided
impetus to emigration. !.

Aged New York Woman Sustains Fa-
tai Injuries.
New York, Feb. ,4.---The fifteen pet
cats kept by Miss Teresa Mulvey, six
ty-three years old, gave an alarm OF
fire which probably saved the life of
her sister Margaret, sixty years old.
Miss Teresa herself was so badly
burned that she will die.
Four of the CATS were suffocated
The fire was in the kitchen, where the
cats were kept. Their bowling awoke
the sisters and Miss Teresa was ia
tally burned in trying to rescue he1
pets. Her sister jumped to the hall
way just in time to escape the fatal
burst of flames.
The prompt alarm brought the fire
men quickly and prevented heavy
damage to the building. One hundred
tenants were panic stricken, but al

Washington, Feb. "A savage at
tack on the law imposing tax of 10
cents a pound on colored oleomar-

The ofeo law is denounced as class
legislation, the charge is made that it
has encouraged fraud on the con-

the law amounts to governmental
discrimination against one industry in
favor of another. The memorial urges
congress 'to take up the matter of
