an advocate OF early rising. He made

although he requires only about six

writing "The Science of Happiness"
he cut this period an hour or even
two hours shorter for weeks at a
stretch. not burning midnight oil, but
retiring at n comparatively early hour
and rising correspondingly early. AS

Peter Henderson Finds Baby.

Peter Henderson who runs a store
in BelOit found dear little black
haired baby girl on the store porch
floor about 10 o'clock last Saturday
night as he was about TO retire. The
baby had bottle Of milk and Mr..
Henderson says the milk in the bot
tie was not cold when he picked up
the infant, said to be about 10 days
old. Mr. Henderson says it is hand
some baby and healthy. He said he
would not adopt it, but would see
that it was placed in the BelOit home
or some children'S home where 1t
would receive good care. The Lord
have mercy on the woman who thus
parts with her dear little innocent
babe.
The fact that the milk in the
baby's nursing bottle was still warm
when found would indicate that the
child was prepared for desertiOn not
far from Beloit The county attorney
has been consulted, and the only
evidence that Mr.. Henderson has is
that he noticed man acting suSpici-
ously about half an hour before find
ing the baby. Here is a chance for
some one to adopt a nice baby.
