By ELIZABETH WEED

Little Tim Cosgrove was a newspa- per boy. Tim had very indistinct memory of his antecedents-a vague picture of a comfortable home with " woman who cared for him, putting him to bed, dressing and undressing him and now and again lulling him to sleep in her arms. But by the time he was ten years old all remembrance of her features had passed away from him, and there was no well defined link between that period and his selling pa- pers whereby to make a living.
 One day when the weather was hot Tim succumbed to the heat and fell on tho sidewalk There he lay, his newspapers scattered about him, till a policeman came along and, calling for an ambulance, sent him to a cht- dren's hospital. Tim came out of his collapse and one day was put on steamer with lot of other invalid children and sent off on the water. Beside him on the boat sat a little girl about his own age who fell to talk ing with him. Like Tim, she could remember a pleasant home, and more distinctly. She could recall an old fashioned house. with four pillars be- fore it in the center of beautiful grounds. One thing was iudelbly stamped on her mind-her father be- ing carried out to a cemetery. She d,d not know the reason why, but she and her mother left the big LOUse, and then her mother was carried to a cemetery too. Later transitions came so rapid Iy that she could not remember them all, but her clothes were wearing out, and she did not get new ones. She
