face is the lnQe8 10 the character, II
really isn't always so, and am going
to tell you a story which proves that
sometimes nature models a very
homely face and atones by giving a
great big heart, so wonderfully full
of love.
On the West Side there is little
old lady. She is very homely indeed,
and she is very wrinkled, and she
doesn't look unlike a witch, but her
heart-wen, you may judge for your
selves.
She keeps a rooming house and
one day she arrived at the Mission
House of St. Mary's in state of
great agitation.
She said that an old lady had
brought girl to her house that
morning and told her to keep~the girl
for the day and she would place her
at night.
The little old lady with face like
a witch was suspicious, and she beg
ged one of the sisters to go with her
and talk to the child.
The girl was young and pretty, al
so she was very unsoph1sucated. AND,
like very many foolish children, she
resented the strict discipline of her
parents; she rebened that she was
not permitted to attend dances and
go to nickel shows, and she used to
sit a great deal of the time on the
bench in a park and pity herself.
One day the incest old LADY, dis
covered her there and began to talk
to her.
"You don't look very happy on
such a beautiful day." the incest old
lady said, and the silly little girl just
dubbed over with confidence and told
the whole story.
"That is too bad" the incest old
lady said. ''You should not put up
with such things. If you will come
with me. will get you very easy
position without much work, and you

money and all the fun you want.
And the sillv little girl believed


And the silly little girl believed
The sister was so worried after she
heard the story that she called up the
chief of police and discovered that
an alarm had been sent out for the
girl by her strict parents who believed
she had been kidnapped, so she was
taken home and policeman waited
for the incest old lady and arrested
her.
Whereupon it developed that the
incest old lady was decoy to get
silly, pretty girls into houses of ill
fame, and she was sent to prison,
but the silly little girl owes her escape
from life of sin to the little old wo-
man with face like witch.
That isn't all of the story. There
are two sailors who spend each win
ter with the little old lady with face
like a witch, and they call her
Mother"
This winter, when they arrived in
Chicago, they talked rather loudly on
a street car about the good time they
were going to have with their money,
and that night burglars broke into
the house, robbed the men and would
have killed them had not the little old
lady with a face like a witch sum-
moned the police, who scared the
burglars away.
At Christmas time the Sisters of
st. Mary's Mission received a letter
from the little old lady, and it read:
Dear Sisters: Unless you remem-
Der my boys they will not have any
Christmas this year, SO hope you
will remember them, but if you can
not, it. will be all right"
The Sisters knew just how anxious
the little old lady was that those boys
should not be forgotten, and just how
anxious she was, also, that the Sis
tiers should not feel badly if they
weren't in a position to remember
the boys.

TAFT Advises Canada to
Guard Against PlutOCracy

TORONTO, Jan. 29.-"I sincerely
hope that our experience may give
you warning and cause you to take
prompter measures to prevent plu-
tocracy reaching the danger point"
said former President William II.
Taft here last night in an address
delivered before the Literary and
Scientific Society of the University
of Toronto. Canada, he said, had the
advantage of profiting by the mis-
takes made in the United States and
had already shown discretion in
avoiding them. He hoped that such
restrictive measures as might be
needed In Canada would be applied
early enough so that excuses of
reform" might be avoided.
Speaking on popular government,
Mr. Taft declared that it should not
be made a fetch. 1t was a means to
an end, he said, and a form of gov
eminent which did not serve society
best should not be continued.
Dealing with woman suffrage, Mr..
Taft said that it's advocates would
have to justify their attitude by
either showing that as a class women
suffered by participation in gov
eminent, or that. if given the fran
chise, they would materially i'm
prove the wisdom and patriotism of
the electorate. He spoke of mill
fancy as hysteria and a lack of the
sense Of proportion, but thought
woman suffrage would be inevitable
ultimately.

Good BoWeLs Are
An Aid to Gro4vh
Gro1Dfng Children Need a Mid
LarattUe to Foster Regular
Boquei Mob nlenf.

AS a child grows older it requires
more and more personal attention
from the mother, and as the functions
of the bowels are of the utmost i'm
portance to health, great attention
should be paid to them.
Diet is of great Importance, and tue
mother should watch the effect OF
certain foods. A food will constipate
one and not another, and so we have
healthy food like eggs causing
biliousness to thousands, and a whole
some fruit like bananas consttpatins
many. 1t is also to be considered that
the child is growing, and great
changes are taking place in the young
man or young woman. The system
has not yet settled itself to its later
routine.
A very valuable remedy at this
stage. and one which every growing
boy and girl should be given often or
occasionally, according to the indi-
vidual circumstances, is DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. This is a laxa
tive and tonic combined. so mild that
1t Is given to little babies, and yet
equally effective in the most robust
constitution. At the first sign of a
tendency to constipation give a small
dose of Syrup Pepsin at night on re-
firing, and prompt action will follow
in the morning. 1t not only acts on
the stomach and bowels, but its tonic
properties build up and strengthen
the system generally, which is an
opinion shared by Mr.. John Dey. OF
Bloomfield, N. J. He has a large
family and at ages where the growth
and DEVELOPMENT must be watched.
