BUREAU

INDORSED

BY CHARITY PEOPLE

Each Organization Decides to Appoint Member to Perfect Organization of Central Charity Body.

TRUSTEE GIVES REPORT

Proposed Bureau Will Have Paid Secretary to Direct General Work of Charity Relief in City.

At a meeting held by representatives of various charitable organizations at the Commercial Club rooms this afternoon the plan first suggested by Secretary Jordan of the Commercial club to form a central charitable organization to which all the other organizations would be subsidiary, "was Jndorspd and it was decided that the various organizations will appoint it a committee to perfect the formation of the central body. Mayor Robbins presided at the meeting this afternoon. This central body will be composed f representatives of several organisations, including the township trustee, county board of children's guardians, truant officer, Y. M. C. A., school board. Associated Charities, Aftermath society, Penny Club and others. The central body would have a paid secretary who would direct the charitable work of the city, assigning to the various subsidiary organizations, which would not be deprived of their present individuality or initiative, certain kinds of relief work or relief work In certain districts. Complete histories of all charitable cases would also be kept. Such a plan would prevent duplication and would afford systematic and prompt assistance to deserving poor. Assists 1200 Persons. Township Trustee Howarth reported 250 families, composed of 1,200 members, assisted Bince September, with a revenue of $3,900; the Aftermath reported Bl families of 486 members relieved with a varying revenue; the Penny club reported 100 or more families of 500 to 600 members assisted with a revenue of $600; the Associated Charities reported 97 families of 435 members relieved, with a revenue of between $1,600 and $1,700. Undoubtdly much of this relief work was duplicated, because the organizations have unsatisfactory arrangements for keeping in touch with the work done by each other. A Main street merchant reported today that he had taken ten boys and girls, pupils at Whitewater school, and purchased shoes for them. He also had to purchase stockings for all of them because their stockings were so wet shoes could not be fitted on them. Today Principal Outland of the Fairview school reported several poor children in need of assistance.

NONE HALF SO GOOD AS CHAMBERLAIN'S. "I have tried a number of cough medicines for the children but never found any half to good as Chamberlain's Cough Remedy," writes Mrs. Alex. Johnson, New Haven, Ind. "It will not only check croup, but will cure a cough or cold quicker than any other rpmedy we have used. The children like it and I know it cannot do them harm as it is free from opiates." For sale by all dealers. Ad-ertlsement

Married Life the Third Year

By MABEL HERBERT URNER. The cab drew up at the curbing before an imposing entrance.

Warren jumped out, dragged out one of the suitcases, looking impatiently toward the doorway, but no one came out for their baggage. Leaving the suitcase on the sidewalk, and Helen in the cab, he strode inside and came back with a porter. The driver dragged the trunk from the top of the cab and the porter got them into the back hallway. "1 am afraid your rooms are not quite ready, sir;" the man informed them as he took them up in the lift. They found both rooms torn up. Rugs were rolled aside and the furniture pushed into a corner. One woman was washing the floors and another the windows. "What's all this?" demanded Warren. "Why aren't these rooms ready?" The scrubwoman only looked up in mute inquiry. "They wouldn't know, dear," murmured Helen. "You will have to see the manager." 'There isn't any manager It is a

Laborers Fight Corporations For Improvement of Street

Two Property Holders Declare They Can Stand Expense and See No Reason Why Rich Comyanies Cannot.

J. 8. Keen, provider for a wife and five of nine step-children, and James Tartaglea, an Italian, the only resi

dent property owners on North Fifteenth street from F to H street, successfully got through the board of public works today their petition for cement sidewalks on each side of the street In the block in which they live, although verbal remonstrances were entered by representatives of the American Seeding-Machine company and the Wlayne Works, which will have to bear the brunt of the improvement costs. Wlllard Z. Carr, representing the American Seeding-Machine company, said the company regarded the sidewalks as unnecessary, but had no serious objections to make against the improvement. E. G. Clements, representing the Wayne Works, advocated that no action be taken on the petition this year, and that a fund be provided in next year's budget for the making of a brick street north on Fifteenth from E to J street, connecting there with the cement roadway, to be constructed this year, and that cement walks, curbs and gutters be provided with the paved improvement. The paving of Fifteenth street from E to J was also indorsed by William C. Ferguson, pointing out that it would provide a completely paved roadway from Eighth and Main streets to Morton park. City Funds Limited. While the board would like to see North Fifteenth street paved, two reasons were advanced why such an improvement could not be made this year. One, that the city did not have sufficient funds to meet its share of the expense, the other that no improvement can be made where the expense is more than fifty per cent of the

valuation of abutting properties. Also the board oould not see why it would be necessary to postpone construction of cement walks until the street is paved, in fact, the board now wants to see cement walks laid on Fifteenth street not only from F to G, but from F to J street. Keen, who is a cement worker, employed the argument of a Philadelphia lawyer in advocating the construction of the walks, his Italian neighbor nodding his approbation all the time. "I am a citizen of Richmond, and I am proud of the city. I want to see her streets Improved, and while I don't own a factory I am willing to pay my share of the expense of cement walks on our street," said Keen. "I took a woman with nine children, five of whom I have to care for, and a $560 mortgage on the house, but I can pay the bill. The walks are now so bad that a stepson carrying a small child tripped in a rut and scraped the Bkln off the face of the baby, and one of my stepdaughters Is sick at home from getting her feet wet trying to cross the street, which, like the walks, Is generally a swamp or a river. Advances Good Argument. "As to postponing the Improvement until next year because of the expense, it would be like a naked man having to postpone for a year the purchase of a suit offered to him for 15 cents, because he didn't have the money." Mr. Clements also wants North F street, probably the worst street in the city, paved from Sixteenth to Fifteenth, and assured the board that the Wayne Works, which owns all the property in that square, will willingly consent to such, an improvement, if

! North Fifteenth street is paved. Board

members are of the opinion that F street should be paved the entire distance. The Fifteenth street paving question has been up before, but was previously deefated by the American SeedingMachine company, but that company now favors not only the paving of that street, but of paving North F from Fifteenth to Sixteenth street, because these two streets now have to be used by the company to get to Its lumber yard.

'managress.' That is what they have in most of these London apartments." A faint jingle of keys down the hall and the housekeeper appeared. "I am sorry, sir, but the party did not leave until last night. We will have all this In order by lunch time." "Well what about our baggage," asked Warren, with difficulty restraining his impatience. He always hated to deal with women because he could not roar at them. "That stuff can't stand down there in the hall." "Oh, the porter will take care of that, sir. If you will come back around one, you will find everything ready and your luggage here." There was nothing to do but accept the situation. Helen was devotedly glad that it had been Warren and not she who had engaged these rooms. Had she been responsible his irritation would have been vented upon her. Now he was forced to make the best of it. ARISTOCRATIC NEIGHBORS. Helen had not really wanted to leave the hotel. Since they were to be in London only a month, it seemed hardly worth while to move. But Warren had insisted on an apartment. Said he wouldn't stand for the "washstand and pitcher" any longer that he wanted his own bath and a place where they could have breakfast In their rooms. As they went down the lift, Helen noticed some mail addressed to "Lady " and "Sir " And there

10 CENT "CASCARETS" STRAIGHTEN YOU UP When Headachy, Bilious, Constipated, Stomach Sour, Bad Breath.

was a package on the hall table addressed to "The Honorable ." "Warren, did you notice those letters in the elevator?" eagerly asked Helen, when they reached the street. "Why this must be a very good place. Did you know there were any titled people here?" No, and I am not keen on knowing it now. We will get it on our bills all right. They always lap on a few extras when they have got a 'Lord or 'Lady' in the house."

He paused on the corner and glanced at his watch. 'I will have to leave you here. It. is almost eleven. What are you going to do? Loaf around the shops until noon?"

"I suppose I will have to," ruefully, "but I had much rather stayed there and unpacked." "You will have all the afternoon for that. What do you say to having dinner sent up to the rooms tonight? We have been going out pretty steady." "Oh, yes, dear, I would love it." "Well, see what kind of a dinner they can put up; and we will get to bed early. This out-every-night business can he ovprdone. Think I will take the tube from here; that will be quicker than a bus." The next hour Helen spent exploring the shops in the neighborhood. One o'clock found her back at the apartment, eager to begin the unpacking and get "straightened out." ROOMS IN ORDER. She found the rooms in perfect order and the baggage there. The Bitting room was most attractive with its white pannelel walls, fresh muslin curtains and the furniture covered with white linen. There were a few good engravings on the walls and a couple of very good vases and candlesticks on the mantel. The bedroom was also all in white. Helen could not help but compare these charming homelike rooms, with the typical New York "furnished

apartment" with its cheap, gaundy furniture and utter lack of taste. Eagerly she began "to unpack. There was only one tiny wardrobe, but it was so well fitted with hangers that there was room for both her clothes and Warren's. The bureau drawers were all freshly lined with white paper another touch of English thoroughness and thoughtfulneBS. Not a thing hid been overlooked that might add to their comfort. A little later the managress came in the door to see if everything was all right and to express regrets that the rooms had not been ready. While she was there Helen asked about having dinner sent up. "Oh, yes, you can have any meal served in your rooms. I will have a little folding table put in. The dinner is three shillings and sixpence for service. But we don't serve wine; you will have to supply that yourself. There is a very good wine shop on the block below, and there is a flower stand there, too, when you wish flowers." Surely that was very English. Helen could not conceive of a New York housekeeper or 'manager volunteering the information as to where you could get flowers. She had not come to know that to the Knglish, flowers were almost a necessity. The blue vases on the mantel seemed to call out for flowers. So when she finished unpacking, Helen went out to the little stand on the block below and bought two great bunches of dafTadoils sixpence a bunch. She also stopped into the wine store for a bottle of claret. A TOUCH OF CHARM. The daffadoils in the blue vases gave a final touch of charm and home.

; The rest of the afternoon Helen spent

in going over her clothes, putting on , hooks and eyes, shampooing her hair, . washing gloves and getting things ' really "in order." They had been in : London two weeks, and until now she had not had a moment to spend on her clothes. ! It was fire before she realized it.

Warren would soon be there. Yielding to a sudden impulse she put on her prettiest dinner gown. This was to be an evening at home ln their own home in London. When Warren came he opened the door on a very attractive 'scene the charming little sitting room, with its shaded lights and flowers, and Helen in a low necked gown. "Jove, we look scrumptious. What are all the glad rags for? Thought we weren't going out tonight?" "We are not." Joyfully. "But I wanted to have a wonderful little dinner here. Oh, I LOVE this place. Aren't these charming rooms?" "Hum glancing around approvingly. "Looks a darn sight better than the rooms at the hotel." "And they are really very nice here. The manageress came in this afternoon to say how sorry she was that the rooms were not ready. I spoke about having dinner up here. It Is three shillings each for the dinner and sixpence for the service. Don't you thing that is cheap?" "That is all right, but hurry it up. Tell them to trot it along. I am hungry." 'And dear, rubbing her cheek pleadingly against his arm, "would you mind putting on a dinner coat? Let's make it a very wonderful dinner." "All right," good-naturedly, "anything to satisfy you." While Warren dressed, the maid brought in and set up a folding table. It was not the usual careless serving of a meal in the room. Every detail of the table was perfect even to the pink shaded candle which she placed of the daffadoils and drew up tne chairs. "Well, there is something like it," exclaimed Warren, when he came out looking fresh and well groomed in his dinner coat. "Isn't it charming," assented Helen, eagerly. "Oh, I love the atmosphere of this. Dear, I am bo glad we came here." "What did I tell you? Isn't this a darn sight better than being cooped up in that hotel room? If Americans only knew that they could get funnished flats over here and live twice as well for the same money they would put out of business a few of these hotels who soak the tourist. "But we won't be too jubilant until we see what the dinner is like. Atmosphere may be enough for you, but 1 want some good food along with it." But the food was good excellent, and so was the service. Helen was radiantly happy. For the first time she felt as though she was really a part of London. Dining in evening dress in their private sitting room seemed like real English life the English life of the novel and play, which was all she knew. From where she sat, the table and herself were reflected in the long mirror over the mantel. She could only see Warren's back but it was the

This is an important epoch, and on securing proper food depends the future growth and health of the child. Grape-Nuts prepared as follows has often solved the perplexing problem. Place one or two teaspoonfuis of Grape-Nuts in a cup of hot water; stir for five minutes, at intervals; pour off the liquid portion and add a little sugar. Feed this "liquid Grape-Nuts" to the child. Milk and cream, and more of the softened Grape-Nuts may be added later on. This food is convenient, economical and safe. It is worthy a trial, especially where other "Infant Foods" do not make good.
