The Daily. Story
woman's Witty Edith v. Ross.

II was on a bright morning In De-
cember that Mrs. Garland decided 20
send her little boy to the sidewalk to
get the fresh air. She put Oh his over
coat and his toGue and his gloves and
took him out on to the stoop Then,
giving him kiss, she told him TO run
about for awhile. Jimmie was six
years old, and his mother. who was a
self reliant woman, had discharged his
nurse.
Jimmie did not return, and his moth
er went out to look for him. He WAS
not on the stoop or on the sidewalk
Indeed. he was not In sight His moth
er walked hurriedly up and down the
street, expecting every moment TO
catch sight OF him, but she did not
Finally she asked some children play
ing near by. and they told her that
they had seen a little boy--describing
Jimmie-sO of with man.
Then Mrs. Garland knew that her
boy had been kidnapped. By strong
effort OF the will she kept her head
and questioned the children closely as
to the appearance of the man. They
described a small. poorly dressed per
son, his trousers patched and his ell
bows in rags. His hair was what
they called brown. This Is all they
could remember.
Mrs. Garland, though in agony about
her boy. being IN unusually self con
tained woman. very soon brought her
self into a condition to think what she
should do. When Il child is kidnapped
It is usually for money. The parent Is
Informed of the fact and negotiations
opened for payment Mrs. Garland,
who was a widow, made up her mind
TO await the kidnaper's demand before
taking any action
And yet one can never be certain
when a child has disappeared that he
will ever be heard from. There are
many disappearances that remain for
ever mysteries. It is therefore the
more remarkable that this mother
should have contained herself and act
ed in a way that would afford the
greatest number of chances for getting
her boy safely back. She reasoned that
if the boys loss were published in the
newspapers the kidnaper would read
it and. taking fright, might remove her
boy to a distance. If no notice were
taken Of the matter he would write.
On the third day after the kidnapping
the postman handed in Il letter which
as soon as Mrs. Garland looked at il
she knew was the one expected. 1t
was addressed simply to the street and
number and written in English as an
italian would write English. The kid
naper demanded 5000 for the return
Of the child. An Italian name was
signed, the writer stating that q reply
could be sent to the general delivery
at the postofice, but whoever called
for It would have nothing to do with
