GIRL FINDS PARENTS RICH.
Begins Search, Believing Them
Poor, in order to Give Help.

San Francisco, Cal, March g.
Mrs. Leon Dennery, wife of a San
Francisco policeman, started a
search in Austria for her parents,
from whom she had been separated
since babyhood. She believed them to
be poor people and thought it her
duty to help them.
Mrs. Dennery has been reared by
an uncle and aunt, TO whom she had
been intrusted during the illness OF
her mother. They had brought her to
America and had given her the i'm
preston that her parents were pow
erty stricken and had abandoned
her.
Mrs. Dennery finally received
long letter from her parents, telling
her that they had been seeking her
in vain for thirty-eight years-since
her disappearance, The father asked
that his daughters family pay him
visit at his expense, He is a veal

! Chinese boys are being sold in
the provinces south Of the famine
district for $3.50 in American mon
ey while not more than % cents
each is offered for girls In fact.
many of the poor families found il
difficult to sell them AT any price
When I let Luchowfu on January
