BOY OF FIVE RETURNED
TO ARMS OF MOTHER
Lad Missing for Three Months
Restored to His Parent
Through Miss Bucher.

Through the eports OF Miss Sara L.
Butcher Of the board of children's guard
ians fve-year-old Alexander Mills, for
whom the police Of this city and Alex
andria have been searching nearly three
months, was restored to his mother yes
terday.
The boy was picked up near 10Th and
L streets northwest by Policeman Brod-
erick of the eighth precinct February II.
The lad was badly frightened and did not
seem to be able to tell who lie was, or
anything about himself. Miss Bucher
took charge of him, and, through the
Juvenile Court, had him committed 10 the
care of the board of chldren's guardians
for three months. When the child was
asked who his mother and father were
he said Mr.. Charlie" and Rosie The
boys father proved to be Charles Lewis.
The story told by Mrs. Lewis Is that
she and her husband who is the boys
stepfather, were living in Alexandria in
February. The boy was with them They
had some trouble and separated, Mrs.
Lewis said. A few days afterward the child
disappeared. She taxed her husband with
knowledge of the boys wherea bouts, and
he admitted, she says. that he was hid
den, and said he would keep him hidden
until he was reconciled with his wife.
Finally Notifies Police.
With the idea of getting her son back
Mrs. Lewis says. she consented to this
but waited vainly more than two weeks
for the child's return. Then she notified
the police in Washington and Alexandria
whose efforts to locate the little boy were
Ruthless About week ago Mrs Lewis
in a state of mind bordering on nervous
prostration, appealed TO Miss Bucher to
help. Miss Butcher did everything she
could. but was unsuccessful until few
days ago. when she went carefully
through all of the cards in her office OF
children committed 10 the care of the
board.
She finally found a card bearing a
childs record which seemed TO fit the
circumstances in the case. The child's
name was given as Alexander Carter
given by the boy, it proved later, in al
attempt to pronounce his real name. The
mothers and fathers names were on the
card as Rosie and Charles She searched
the city until she found Rosie Lewis. an6
took the child to her. 1t proved to be hel
son. He was released from the custody
of the board by Judge De Lacy yester.
day, and was returned to his mother.

curity for government deposits by di-
rection OF William G. McAdoo. Secre-
tary Of the Treasury The Secretary
mas also authorized Philippine. Porto

Banks Request Privilege.
The banks, following the recent order
charging per cent on government de-
posts. requested that they be permit

tute colonial bonds. In making the
concession the Secretary stipulated

Miss FoIa La Toilette Criticises
Anti-Suffragist Methods
and Beliefs.

why should a good husband be con-
sidered as a substitute for a vote?"
Asking this and similar questions and
criticising ant-suffragists for their be-
lief and methods. Miss Fola La Toilette,
daughter of Senator La Toilette of Wis
consin. spoke last night before large
suffrage meeting at the Chamber of Com
merce rooms. She said she saw no re-
sembance between a man and ballot
and no reason why the one should offset
the other.
The suffragists say that women
should not work, but what they really
mean is that women should not be paid
for their work. Miss La Toilette con-
tinued. Women have always worked
and always will, and the only difference
between the past and the present is that
she Is not always able to work within
the four walls of her home We never
hear of the eight-hour law or the mini
mum wage for women who work at home.
Women are just beginning to be paid for

the anti-suffragists do the votes-for- wom-

than the suffragists themselves. She said
that this is not theory.
I'VE agree that womans place is
largely in the home she continued. but
we do not agree that home is bounded
by four walls and a ceiling. Home in
cludes everything which concerns her
home, and every place where her chill

To Wash Gloves

Two secrets enter into the success
full washing of chamois and doeskip
gloves-one is the using of water that
is not too warm, that is either luke
warm or cool, it is better to be a few
degrees too cool than too warm, and
the other is the use of soapy water
for both cleansing and rinsing. If
the water is not too warm to be per-
fectly comfortable for the hands and
plentiful amount of soap is used to
make a good suds for cleansing and
rinsing, the gloves should be as silky
and soft as one would desire.
If they have become badly soiled it
may require more than one bath to
entirely remove the dirt, but after
they are cleansed they should be well
rinsed in another bath of soapy
water, of the same temperature as
the previous waters. The soap and
water should then be pressed out as
nearly as possible, by squeezing in a
thick towel. Then they should be
hung in shady place, but never in
the sun or near the stove, as this will
not permit of their being soft and
silky.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE
Conducted by Mrs. Alice Gitchel Kirk

mayor of his home town and the last
third of his life judge in Paris of
the highest national court, worth fol-
lowing on all he wrote on foods.
His love for it never led him to in
dulge In any of those which did not
continually build both the physical
and mental side of his life.
This month is good time with
the change of season to cooler days
for varying the breakfasts. The ten
dency is to quickly get back into the
habit of eating the heavier foods.
Don't do it. Only add enough to give
sufficient extra warmth to the body
as needed, but keep the machinery
clean and not clogged, the tissues
and muscles we'll built, plenty of
bone material for children and blood
material for all and illness will have
no place in such families.

LONG LIFE IN JUDIoIoUs DIET


ITO eat or not to eat" seems to be
the question when it comes to break
fasts. 1t is only a very small num-
Der, however, who go entirely With
out breakfasts, and not the masses
by any means who are carefully plan
ming the breakfast for father at MS
work, mother hers and the children
In school so that each one is fully teo
or satisfied for five or six hours at
least.
Brillat Savarin, who lived and wrote
the first half of the eighteenth CEN
fury in his native town In France,
had a very good knowledge of the
human race then when he wrote on
1.-The Love of Good Living" he
shows us very clearly that right FOODS
are based upon an intellectual ana
moral quality as well, almost deserV-
fng to rank as a virtue, Opposing
excess, developing discrimination ana
promoting physical health.
Napoleon's worst defeats were due

much of it is true.

too heavy food to eat and a puroen

a nation of dyspeptics.
Water is about the first thing we
should desire and demand in the

never be missed.

people look at one when they say
"No coffee" The answer nine times

Belts and GirdIes

There is no attempt in modern
fashion to make the waist appear
small in any arrangement of the new
belts or girdles. In fact, the desire
nowadays seems to be quite to the
contrary. All the new blouses en-
phasize the retention of the natural
lines of the figures.
Some of the seasons new girdles
call particular attention to this style
point. According to the models of
the present moment the girdle is
often higher in front, descending in
a slanting line toward the back.
Very many of the new ones are
extremely wide and swathe the figure
in truly Oriental fashion. While the
straight-arou belt has not disap-
peared, the majority of girdles or
sashes are of softly draped silks or
other fabrics that possess draping
qualities.
The use of chiffon flowers either in
a single large rose or a cluster of
tiny ones, as a corsage garniture re-
tains all its former vogue, and this
lovely blouse trimming will appear in
many variations of color on new fall
costumes.

The Way to Preserve Butter
flies

My dear Miss Doom:
Having noticed your question in
this evenings paper regarding the
preservation of butterflies, and hay-
ing had a little experience in that line
I am sending you little information
which l hope will be of some service
to you.
After chloroforming and being sure
the butterfly is dead, lay the butterfly
on its back, then thrust needle
through the body near the head, PIN
ming it to board. With another
needle commence with the right-hand
upper wing. placing it at proper
angle to suit your taste, then FOLLOW
same course with lower right wing
Pin down left side in the same man
ner. Take a narrow strip OF tough
paper and lay over the extended
wings, fasten upper end of the paper
with needle, pull taut, fastening TINS
end with another needle; then re-
move the two needles from the two
wings which have been fastened down
before the paper was placed on them.
Go through same procedure with left
wing. After the butterfly is thor
oughly pinned down take a very mar
row strip of paper, laying this across
the body of the butterfly just under
the needle pinning both ends snugly.
Then carefully remove the needle
from the body which held the butter
fly to the board; let it remain about
week or more. No personalities
are needed.
Hoping the above information will
prove satisfactory to A. Mop. am,
very truly yours,
ELIZABETH NJ.
1t gives me pleasure to pass along
your information. / am sure that
A. Mop. will be most grateful. Come
again soon.
