A young woman in Conway Springs. Kan, advertised for a hugband, and the advertisement was answered' by a young farmer living neer Pratt. Cor- rupondence followed and ln time the pol: became engaged. Last week the young fellow went to see his lady love for the first time. When he mined at. her house and “before he could salute her she scanned him over critically and said: “I can never marry you. You the three inches shorter than my ideal, and we never could live happily." And that ended the am. Would you believe it if we were to tell you that right here in this city live children who have never seen the “" °°‘"'"’° lake? I: you don’t, just go down to the Chicago hut-eon of charities some of these days and ask Superintendent Bicknell about it, says the Chicago Chronicle. He will tell you that this is really true, end. moreoVer, that many of these children live within a mile or two of the lake shore. Why have they not seen‘the. lake? Because they have no money to Spend in car fare and they cannot walk; for they are too small or do not know the way. There are thousands more, says Superintendent Bioknell, who have never seen the country, and many who hnve never even glimpsed, at the parks of the city. This state or! nflairsyou littlepeople who livein pret- ty places cannot realize, but if ere! you were to be taken over in the very poor district you would understand wh y it is so. The. bureau, however. has begun‘its regular summer work of lending out companies of these little children to the country or giving them some kind oflsn opting. The good thnt is define the children in two weeks’ time oi living in pure sir and with plenty of hood is so greet that often when they return they do not look like the some children who were sent away such: short. time before. Superintendent Bicknell tells of sending a party of seven children to the country not many days ago, of whom six had never seen Lake Michigan, and not nny of them had ever seen theeountry.‘ 0n theway down to the city the little girl who had seen the lake, 3 much-envied little individual, told her experiences on her journey to the lake, and then described the big body 01 water. The other six not breathless while she told the tale. their-little faces all interest and aston- ishment. Often the good country folk who‘ take these waits nor a short visit become very fond 6! their little '1. ltors and adopt them. In thlswsy- they tell into good homes and are well cared for. Alter s 'time they grow accus- tomed to the country, but at first they are usually very lo . me, “because it is so quiet and th . e’s so much room," In one little girl expressed it. lend children to cream and cake, coffee and sand- wiches, a grab bag {or thachildreu.
