HAS A USE FOR OLD MAIDS
Women Take a Poor Law Child
to Board

London.-Replying to parliamentary
critics of his administration of the
poor law schools, John Burns. Presi-
dent of the Local Government Board,
declared that every old maid in Eng
land who owns more than two cats
or more than one dog should be com.
PEELED to take child from the poor
house. He maintained that his policy
of removing the children from the
poorhouse to the care of private fam
lies had proven markedly successful.
Referring to the children who have
been boarded out Mr. Burns said:
Increasingly both rich and poor are
adopting poor Law children. If | had
my way ! would make it compulsory
for all women who keep more than two
cats and one dog to have poor law
child on which to divert some of the
cash and a good deal of the wasted
sentiment which many people put UPON
animals to an extent which is absurd"

When Fred Winters departed fol-
Cuba with his regiment the know-it-
alls in society said there was an en-
igagement between him and Ruth Burt,
and that when the war was over and
the lieutenant came marching back
again there was to be wedding.
BY and by there came strange ru-
imors from the front In no case could
they be traced to fountain head, but
those who held them in greatest con-
tempt had a half-belief just the same.
Some one was giving out and repeat
ing that Fred Winters had shown cow
.ardice in the face of the enemy. The
newspapers didn't have it, but letters
came back affirming and denying it.
It's lie, and know it," exclaimed
Miss Ruth's only brother, who had
reached his sixteenth birthday. Its

Il do not know a gentleman that
would stoop to anything Of the sort"
replied the sister.
We'll, some one has been STOPPING.
Have you written to Fred what is be-
ing said about him."
"Of course not. Indeed, l am not
writing to him at ALL"
Just like a girl to condemn a Teller

self"
You'll do nothing of the kind. can
manage my own affairs"
Go on, then, but I'd give my pony
to find out the liar"
I'VE shall know all about it when
the soldiers return"
Yes, and I'll challenge and fight the
man that first set the rumor af1oat!"
And the youth pulled out his chest
and walked to and fro in the long
parlors and tried to look determined
and ferocious.
When Miss Ruth's letters ceased to
put in an appearance, Mr.. Winters was
on his dignity at once. There was some
good reason, but was it for him to beg
it2 He had written last, and now he
must wait. At the front there were no
rumors of cowardice. 1t was the other
way. Lieutenant Winters had received

A kind-hearted old lady in a West

rear door not long ago by the knock

good soul fastened TO give the man
something to eat, and as he fed, gazed
upon him with an expression Of the
