Chicago, May 11-Some Of the joys o.
bringing up babies, which three wealthy
Chicago bachelors have announced they
will undertake. were told to-day by John

the shelter Of his foster parental wing, so
he probably knows more about bringing up
youngsters than any other unmarried man
in this city.
Following the urgent advice of DR.. Lind

gress Of Mothers, that all bachelors earn
ing at least $50 q week should take baby
to raise. three bachelors here decided to
provide for the care of three little waits.
