HOW A BABY LOST $4,000.

In the May WOman'S Home COM
panion appears very interesting ar
ticlc entitled THE Safeguarding of the
Child" by Julia c. Lathrop, chief OF
the children's bureau in the United
States department Of labor. In the
course of the article Miss Lathrop
shows the Importance of the registra-
ton of births. She makes the point
that thousands of children's lives could
be saved If in the first few hours OF
life they could have proper attention.
She also proves that in the United
States no proper records are kept OF
births. In the following extract from
her article she tells the story of a case
where the failure to register the birth
of child cost the mother dearly:
The Importance Of a birth record is
very we'll illustrated by the case. re-
Gently brought to the attention Of the
children's bureau, Of a young Swiss
| immigrant who. coming to this coun-
try and settling in Indiana, was killed
leaving a widow and infant child. The
mother, in dire poverty. had trouble to
| keep herself and her baby alive by
scrubbing and sewing. One day there
came to her an official letter from the
government of Switzerland. stating
that her late husbands brother had
left twelve thousand dollars to this
child. All that was demanded was
proof of identity. with the Gust mary
birth certificate. But there was no
such certificate. and the much-needed
money was lost.
Another instance Of the kind. like
wise in Indiana, had to do with a
. farm which was left to a girl by her
grandfather. Being twenty-one years
of age, she was entitled to the prop
! erty. But q dispute arose. Her father
who had the use of the farm during
her minority, claimed that she wal
, only nineteen. There was no birth GER
, tificate to prove her age. But. happily
a neighbor remembered that a valuable
COW belonging to the grandfather had
! given birth to calf on the same dag
y that the girl was born. The birth o.
8 the calf had been duly recorded. and

will assemble at the scene as quickly
as those of its kind. In such instances,
it is not unusual to see birds Of
