that no franchise be granted to any
line that did not go through East Chi

Mr.. Gavit came back with point

nome Tor her. Long ago she would
nave broken down under the weary
grind, but for the sustaining hope that
some day she would be enabled to rest
peaceably in her modest little cottage.
For years she saved. She finally saved
the first hundred. What an uphill task
1t was to save that enormous sum. A
dollar day is the most she could earn
Out of that sum she had to live and
ciothe herself
nickel show entertainment was a
luxury to her. The names of the great
Polish singers and musicians who come
TO Chicago were a myth to her. She
heard people speak of them. but She
never expected to hear them
She toiled and after many more
weary months she was well on to-
ward saving the second hundred dol
lars In riotous fancy she saw her
cottage again: this time it was vine
clad and a grape arbor near the back
porch offered her shelter from the blis-
tering summer sun Possibly when she
had her cottage, she would still be
strong enough to take in washing and
then she could do work under the grape
en- yard and a garden. She would be
happy
But In the meantime she needed an
other $3.50. so that she could purchase
lot. That meant more months of
ceaseless hard labor during the sum
mer and the winter months This
spring she saw the end in sight What
cared she now for her chapped and
gnarled hands. Some day they would
be permitted to rest.
The sun did not shine yesterday
morning, but in Mrs. Uliaz' heart there
was sunshine. Today, she thought,
will buy my lot. She was happy al
though still far away from her cher
ished goal. Carefully she recounted
her money. 1t was all in ten and TWEEN
" dollar bills. Long ago she had her
little earnings changed into bills of
larger denominations. Carefully she
placed it in a bag and started on her
she had her money safely on her per-
son until she reached for it 10 lay it on
the counter The terrible truth dawned
on her-she was ruined The picture
of her little cottage. her grape arbor,
the chicken yard and the garden passed
before her eyes like a hollow mockery.
She had hardly enough money with
which to get home.
1t would be an unforgettable sight to
be present when some honest person
comes to Mrs. Uliaz and gives her back
her lost fortune, and. of course, he
would refuse all reward from the poor
washerwoman. wouldn't you?

Chicago Bachelor Adopts Almost
An Entire Family Of Children
BY Il. G. RODGERS

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 21.-when
Floyd Keefe, age Z. and his broth
err Kenneth, age 3, woke up the
other morning they were poor,
their playground was the alley
upon which their home stood,
their playmates were the children
of the alley.
Then came a big automobile
and carried them away.
In the morning they were the
children of a poor working wom-
an; In the evening they were the
children OF q multi-miilionaire.
Sounds like fairy tale, doesn't
It? But it is true. 1t had its
beginning in a speech DIR. A. Lois
Ldnsay Wyncoop made at the ma
tional mothers congress. She
said that bachelors ought to
adopt children to raise.
When she got back to Chicago.
DR.. Wyncoop found five apph-
cants for children. One OF them
was Gordon Strong. millionaire
Chicago real estate man.
DR.. Wynecoop had a list of
ready-to-be-adopted youngsters
ready.
She knew of the Keefe boys.

NEW YORK. Aug. 21.-The

for his wife a woman SO quiet,
80 unobtrusive, that most people
have come to think. indeed, that
j. Pierpont Morgan is a widower
of years and years standing.
But he Is not. There is a
Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan, and she
is one of the bestowed women In
the world to those who know her
those few who can be counted
on less than all the fingers OF her
slim hands.
Mrs. Morgan is NOT a woman
OF the home. purely and simply.
She does not care for formal so

tensive travelling; and she does
not care to meet the great of the

present to her, IL she desired.
Her greatest delight, instead,
is to be immured, past all intru-
sion, in the fastness of her house,
and there to be surrounded by
her children and her grandchill
dren. Then she is just the
mother" and grandma" she
wished to be and not the much
stared at wife of the most-hated
man.
So fond is Mrs. Morgan of her
grandchildren that the other day
she travelled down the Hudson
from her country home on the
Morgan yacht "Corsair ILL.," to
the New York steamship docks to
see some of them off to Europe,
running a risk she has never run
before-the awful risk of be-
ing "snapshotted" and inter-
viewed.
And that's when the camera
man snapped the accompanying
photograph.
1t portrays her as she is-a
fradl, highly-strung, finely-bred
creature. sensitive to- degree
and abhorent of all notoriety and
public life.
Indeed, Mrs. Morgan Is of so
nervous temperament that she
could not endure an active social
life, were she so inclined. She
is never robustly well, even when
she remains In the deepest secln-
sion.
Before her marriage to Pier
pont Morgan, Mrs. Morgan was
New York. The marriage oc-
Cured in 1865. three years after
the death of Morgan's first wife.
-Four children resulted from
the union. The eldest, Louisa,
married Herbert l.. Satterlee in
1900 and they have two babies.
Mabel and Eleanor.
The second child is ]. p. Nor
gan, jr.. who was born In 1857.
He married Jane Norton Grew In
1890, and has four children
Junius. Jant, Frances and Henry.
juliet Morgan was the third
child of the elder Morgans and
was born In 1879. She Is the
wife of VIM. Pierson Hamilton
and has five children, Helen, PIER
pont, Laurens. Alexander and
Elizabeth.
Anne Morgan. the famous spin
ster daughter Of the Morgans, was
the last child. She was born In
1873, and inherits more of her
fathers characteristics than the
others. She is fearless, indepen-
dent, and loves to be always In
the press Of things.
