the solitary motorist in a friendly

Mr.. William Walling, If such he

frightened look and then threw on

He swung into Manhattan avenue and
still widened the gap. In n few min

Durando's old place and hustle across
the Harlem river.

the great business OF
fetching and carrying was taken.
Since then many thousands OF devices
for carrying the baby have been tried {:
but 1t cannot be said that the Oldest
of all problems In traffic has yet been
finally and satisfactorily solved.
The New Guinea baby lives in net
suspended from its mothers neck. or
is allowed to hang from convenient
peg in the dwelling, and the infants
OF tropical America spend much OF
their time in hammocks. The Africans
never invented any device for the
convenience of their little ones, either
Mt rest or travelling. Usually the ne
gro mother gathers her child in the
folds of her shawl or other garment.
If 1t happens that she wears no gar
ment to serve as sort of sling In
which to carry the baby. the youngster
clings around her neck.
A European Invention.
Wheeled carriages for babies were
devised by Europeans, consisting, in
their simplest form, OF an oblong
frame with crude receptacle for the
infant. and two wheels attached to
the croSSbar.
More commonly European mothers,
and American mothers of European
descent, carry their babies upon the
left arm. OF all methods of carrying
the baby, this is the worst, wrenching
the spine and distortina the body. Pic
lures of the Madonna represent her as
carrying the Christ-child in this man.

she never did it. Both the ancient
Egyptians and the ancient Hebrews
carried their children astride their
shoulders Usaiah xix: 22). It does
not appear that the Greeks used
cradles for their children, but the
Romans did, representations of their
devices bearing some resemblance to
those used by the Sioux Indians.
Rigid cradles in which the child Is
placed, and tightly laced or strapped
there, are found in northern Europe,
northern Asia and North America. The
cradles of the Laplanders are followed
out OF log. with hood for the pro-
lection of the child's head. The Sa-
moyed cradle is described as "a box
shaped like a coffin, and laced with
udIIOW SlllpS VI ulue, III WHICH Lne
child is placed. wrapped in furs." The
Yakut cradle is said to be shaped
like a coal scuttle"; and that Of the
Tongus, inhabiting the shores of the
sea of Okhotsk, is a box lined with
reindeer fur, closing up tightly, with
a valve of leather for the admission OF
air.
Common to Russian Empire.
The baby's bed and carriage, made
together, or with the bed firmly at
tached to the carriage, is common to
almost every one of the medley of
peoples of the Russian empire, in
Guiding the Georgians, Tartars,' No
gals. Kalmucks, Yakuts, Buriats, Os-
tiaks, Samoyeds and others. The gen.
eral similarity of these cradles to
those used by the North American In
dians may, possibly, be considered an
argument in favor of the opinion that
the American tribes are of Asiatic
origin.
More probably the cradles used by
all these tribes and peoples. inhabit-

ty. most earnestly urge that you pardon one Sam
Hubbard. an old negro sentenced from this coun-
ty IN February 1912 to state penitentiary for eigh-
teen months: and would show to your Honor the
following reasons for asking his pardon, He was
convicted of grand larceny: that is running off or
hiding out a molasses mill. that was owned Jointly
by him and two or three other negroes, that is
they bought it on credit and it seems that Sam
was the most responsible creditor of the bnnch.
and TOT some reason they fell out about who
should Keep said mill in charge. and the negroes
went before the Grand Jury aud had Sam indicted
and technically Sam was guilty of Violating the
law. but we do not think that Sam intended to
violate the. law. Sam is quite an old man and
mas a large family dependent upon him for a liv.
