should have loved them.
Cared for and nursed to health, they are con
stantly being placed IN good homes This is done
with the greatest care. When people want TO adopt
a child they fill out an application blank with
references. The application is then passed on by
the children's committee. If the decision is fay-
orable the child is placed in the family on trial
The field agents of the institution look in on the
home and report. After time II both sides are
satisfied, the adoption is made legal But even
after that, the field agent keeps touch with the
child until 1t has reached maturity.
The institution Is entirely n-seetarian and
children are cared for without any regard to what

it frequently in public addresses. Many institu-
tons we know of have mortality ranging from
25 to 20 per cent"
And in the Omaha Child Saving Institute the
mortality hast year was less than 1 per cent?
The big building of the institute stands on
sunny slope at Forty-second and Jackson streets
and it is one Of the most interesting places in
Omaha. Let's take trip through 1t with the mat

she is constantly "dearing" them.
In fact, 1t would be hard TO be anything but
kind to such nice children. Their helplessness and
trustfulness touch the very chords in the human
heart, which respond with help and love and care.
Most of these children would be entirely

in them after few months of care here is some
times astounding. Mere skeletons, sickly and for

tee This seems impossible until II is remembered
that most Of the children are adopted and then the
cost of supporting them falls on the family with
whom they live. This record is eQualed by only one
other institution in this country.
At the present time visitors are not admitted
to the children of the scarlet fever cpl
demic in Omaha. This is only one example of the
precautions taken to safeguard the children's
health Nurses under orders stay out OF street
and away from places where people congregate.

 For half mile the train served it's masters Then, with q pathetic groan, it paused. Still MT. Minot gazed cut the window. He gaZed so long that he saw a family of raZOrbacks, passed a quarter. of mile back, catch up with the train and trot scornfully by. After that he kept his eyes on the live oaks and eEergreens, to whose topmost branches hung gray moss like whiskers on a western senator.
 Then he could stand it no longer. He turned and looked upon the diversion at Jacksonville. Gentlemen of the jury-she was beautiful The custo- dian of library of books on sociology could have seen that with half an astigmatic eye. Her copper colored hair flashed alluringly in that sunny car. The curve of her cheek would have created sensation in the neigh borhood where burning Sappho loved md sang.

He watched Lord Harrowby cross the railroad tracks to small landing and leap from that into boat in charge of solitary rower. Then he heard the soft swish sof oars and watched the boat draw away from shore. He stood there in the shale un- til he had seen his lordship run cp the accommodation ladder to the Lileth's Geek. 5s
 He, too, must reach the Lileth and at once. But how? 11c glanced quickly up and down the bank A small boat was tethered near by. He ran to it, but chain and paddock held it firmly. He must hurry. Aboard the ',yacht, dancing impatiently on the bosom of Hendrick Hudson's important discov- cry, he recognized the preparations for an early departure.
 Ainot stood for q moment looking at the wide, wet river. It was February, yes, but February of the mildest win ter New York had experienced in years. . At the seashore lie had always dashed boldly in while others stood on the sands and shivered. He dashed in now. VA
 The water was cold, shockingly cold. He struck out swiftly for the, yacht. Fortunately the accommodation ladder had not yet been taken up. In another moment he was clinging, limp and dripping spectacle, to the rail of the LQcth- sitr
 Happily that side of the deck was just then deserted. A row of outside cabin doors in the bow met Minot's eye Stealthily he swished toward them. ts ( And in lthe last analysis the only thing between him and them proved to be large, commanding gentleman, whose silhouette was particularly mili- tant and whose whole bearing was un- favorable. N "Afr. Wall, presume?'' said Minot through noisy teeth. N +Correctv said the gentleman. His voice was sharp, unfriendly. But the moonlight, falling on his face, revealed 1t as soft, genial, pudgy-the inviting sort of countenance to which, under the melting influence of Scotch and soda, one feels like relating the sad story of one's wasted life.
 Though soaked and quaHng, MT. Minot aimed at nonchalance.
 'sWell,' he said, you might be good enough to tell Lord Narrowly that I've arrived"
 .sWho are you? What do you want?''
 4sI'm friend of his lordship. He'll be delighted, I'm sure. Just tell him, if yoh'n be so kind"
 Did he invite you aboard?"
 Not exactly. But he'll be glad to see me-"
 An expression of mingled rage and dismay came into the pudgy face. It purpled in the moonlight. Its huge owner came threateningly toward the dripping Minot.
