Children Boarded Out.

New York, March 1.-The inStitu-
tional baby is one of New York's baby
prOblems-the waits who go to the
founding asylumS. Thousands are
abandoned every year. who must be
cared for thus. 1t has been found that
institutiOnalism is fatal to babies. Be
yond doubt babies may have every care
in institutions and yet pine and die
there who would thrive if given less
care in a private home. In one Of the
best institutions the death rate is 80
per cent.
The board of health is finding that
babies can be boarded out in private
homes at less cost than their support
in institutions means. At present 2,S44
are boarded out in New York city as
the result of this discovery by the
board, and their care and quarters are
so supervised that there is very little
danger of neglect The women who
have them in charge are under the SUI
pervisiOn of nurses and inspectors, and
this has helped to keep mortality down.

National Park In Colorado.

Washington. March 3. 800 A national
park in the Rocky mountains Of Colo
RADIO, in the vicinity of Longs peak,
including the valley known as Estes
park, the continental divide and the
mountain ranges near by, has been
recommended by r. b. Marshall chief
geographer of the United States geo
logical survey. who has just concluded
Il detailed examination of the region.
Mr.. Marshall suggested that it be
named Rocky Mountain National park.
"The region is as beautiful rs any to
be found in the United States" said
Mr. Marshall, "aS there is spread be-
fore the eye the gorgeous assemblaGe
of wonderful mountain ranges sur
rounded by fantastic and ever chang
ing clouds. The elevation ranges from
1900 to 14,000 feet, and the area is
we'll watered and affords abundant OPP
portunity for the camper. 1t would be
nearer to the large centers of popula-
ton than any of the present parks and
would be available for many people
who cannot afford to go to the parks
farther away"

Innrovenen of CAPITOL Grounds.

Washington, March 3. - Uncle Sam
spent a tidy sum on the capitol grounds
the beautiful park which surrounds
legislative headquarters and which
congress has lately voted to enlarge
through the purchase of much of the
adjoining property. The severe winter
Of year ago left it's scars on the CAPT
tol grounds as it did elsewhere i'll the
country, and the most unWelcOme out
come was the loss of a number Of the
stately trees that have won the admira-
ton of visitors to Washington in years
gone by.
Such loss is in a great measure irrep-
arabic, but the government has has
tened to plant a number of young trees,
and that these newcomers may in after
years possess added interest for the
nation the custom has been followed
of having them planted by prominent
men. Speaker Champ Clark planted
one, as did the late Vice President
Sherman, and a number of the leading
senators followed the example.

twice to three times the wages Of the

zine. But. the article goes on to say,
although their wages range from 500

a maid in the royal household how
ever lowly her rank, is much better off
than if she were working for even the

1t was suspicion. Brachard had shown
his wife every tender consideration for
more than a year. He had been gener-
Gus, thoughtful, unselfish. Now it came
over him that some other influence

her thoughts in her face, finding con-

London, March 2.-Sydney Brooks,
the we'll known writer on international
politics, has contributed an article to
the Daily Mail showing the difficulties
that beset the president of the United
States in choosing an ambassador to
the court of St. James. Some of his
most pertinent remarks run as fol-
lows:
For one thing, while the United
States possesses in Victoria street
some small offices that are called an
embassy, it has no ambassadors resi-
dence 1t acts with republican severi-
ty on the theory that all work and no
sleep, let alone play makes good
ambassador. 1t provides him accord
ingly with a desk. chair, pens and pa
per and the paraphernalia of his Off
cial business, but takes no account OF
his human longing for a bed or a roof
over his head or anything that might
serve him as temporary home.
"The last three American ambassa-
doris in London have all been men or
very large private means, which they
have spent ungrudgingly In their coun-
try's serTice. They have accustomed
both Englishmen and Americans to
certain style and scale of doing things.
