An average of fifteen children are taken care of each day. They are left at tho nursery to the morning by their mothers who go out to work. They are cared for until about 6 o'clock. A substantial lunch Is furnished the children at noon and a small luncheon at 4:30. The mid-day meal consists of a beef stow, or some kind of meat and gravy, two vegetables and milk. The afternoon lunch Is usually some cooked fruits, bread, butter and milk. It costs 15 cents to leave a child for a full day, and two can be cared for 25 cents. Small Pay for Matron. The matron Is paid IB per week From a Lover of Good Books.

Early In 1911 a deputation from one of the larger towns of West Af- rica brought two prisoners, father and and she works from early morning until late at night. Additional help to needed, but there arc no funds to pay for a helper. The present matron takes care of the large bouse, does all the cooking and cares for fifteen chil- li run each day. Some of the children are very young and demand careful attention. The rent oh -the house Is lis per month. Subscriptions and help from the outside have furnished About enough to pay for the rent and ice. Soveral kindly disposed people have sent toys, books and cots for the babies. A swing has been put up In the yard and there is a vine-covered gar- den where the children play In the sand. Need Was Acute. Tho need of a nursery for tho col- ored people has been acute. Many iiiuTliws were unable work and add to the family Income by being kept at home by small children. Many who were forced to go, whether or no, locked their children indoors and they were obliged to take care of themselves the best way possible and to get their own food. Private care cost them about CO cents per child and tills ate a considerable hole in | their daily pay. The nursery baa been established by a few colored women who have the best Interest of their community at! heart. . Mrs. i«. Landers Is president' of the committee and the other mem- bers are Mrs. J.

The deputation, however, had not finished with the matter. On re- turning home another Ju-ju was In- voked, with the result that the son confessed that both he' and his father were guilty, and that they had killed and eaten seven other men and women. Strangely enough, people accused of this uncanny power nearly always acknowledge their guilt, even when fully aware that such confession will probably coat them their lives.

They wM «i*o make .pos? sible a rearrangement of the present lines which will improve long distance service from Evanston to ;;:.*i.*its north of Wilmette and from Wilmette to Chicago. In addition the telephone company will increase underground facilities which serve subscribers re- siding along the north shore between Evanston and Wilmette. While the work is In progress, service will not be interrupted. The telephone company expects to complete the work of installing the new cables in August. Ha Lost the Wager. A man who prided himself on a won- derful Imagination that could conceive the biggest lies on record once made a wager that he could tell a greater falsehood than any man tn the town where he resided. The stokes being deposited, he proclaimed that-Jig once threw a nail with such force that It pierced the moon. "Aye, that to true," exclaimed another man.

Strictly speaking neither black nop white Is a color, white being a com- bination of all the seven primary col- ors, and black being an absorption of all. Bodies that reflect all the rays of the sun are called white; those that reflect some rays and absorb others are called red, blue, green, etc.; those that absorb all the rays and reflect none are called black. Slightly Mixed Metaphor. An eloquent Irish candidate, speak- ing of a certain eminent statesman, said: "Ills smooth tongue Is that of a serpent which lures but to destroy, and which holds out sugar plums In one hand, while In tho other It holds an unsheathed dagger behind Its hack." rragments or i ime uount.

At the end of o somewhat sweeping peroration the young lady said: "And now, Mrs. Smith, would you not like to have a vote and exercise the priv- ilege of citizenship?" To which, says the Glasgow News, the lady of the scrubbing brush made a typically fem- inine reply. "I don't know, miss," she said, agitatedly; "what would it cost?" Land Constantly In Motion. Most people know In a general way that large portions of tho United States have in the past been covered by the ocean, but it is perhaps not so generally known that the continent Is now rising to some places rod sinking in others. There Is every reason to believe that minor movements of the land are constantly taking place. ties was sighted off the Pacific coast recently by the captain of a San Fran- cisco steamer.
