AN APPEAL TO NEBRA8KANS.
Child Saving Institute of Omaha Must
Have Larger Building.
Tho Washington conference of ,
charity workers, Called by ex-Prcsl
dent Roosevelt, endorsed tho policy
of plnclng dependent children into
prlvnto homcB for adoption.
This policy hnd long been pursuod
by tho Child Saving Institute of
Omaha.
Over 2,000 innocent, dopendent chil
dren hnvo been succored by tho In
stitute and more than half this mini
ber plnccd In pcrmnnont, comfortable
homos, whllo tho others wero restored
to parents and guardians.
Calls are constantly received for
tho admission of children not only
from tho pooplo of Omaha, but from
tho surrounding towns nnd country
districts. Tho number of applicants
Is increasing. Tho capacity of tho
Institute is alrondy overtaxed.
Tho helpless little ones knocking
,for admission must not bo turned
away!
A now building must bo provided.
A now iilto has been secured on
Twenty-sixth street, hetw.con Leaven
worth nnd St. Mary's avenue. Tho
totnl cost of groilnds, a now building
and the furnishing will bu $75,000.
Mr. Georgo Joslyn has mndo n most
generous proposition without a paral
lel In tho hlBtory of Omaha to givo
$25,000 or thlH on condition that tho
whole amount bo rnlsed boforo Mny 2.
Committees nro at work collecting
money for tho building fund. A num
ber of handsome subscriptions arc be
ing received.
Scores of children from ninny Ne
braska and Iowa communities linvo
been taken in nnd cared fur In tho
Child Saving Institute. In ono caso
seven childron from a small Nif
hiaskn Ipwn wero brought In by nn
agent of tho liiBtltnto upon request
(ft Interested parties. Only n few
days ago three ilttlo girls from Lodge
Polo, Neb., wero ndmlttcd to tho in
stitute. Far yenrs tho facilities ot tho
Child Saving Institute hnvo been
available to all coiners. The Insti
tute Is n rcfugo for tho sick, help
less, deserted, dependent, children
who must havo (ho syntomntlo euro
nnd attention afforded only by nn In
stitution of this kind.
Tho officer In charge of the institute
does not stop to Inquire whether the
('liilins of tho stranded children In
country districts nro grcntor or Iosb
than thoso of childron. in tho city.
Whllo It is true thnt tho Institute
looks largely to tho benovolont people
ot tho city for Its siistonnnco, it Is
equally truo that philanthropic moti
and womon In various places of Ne
braska havo contributed to tho sup
port of tho Institute.
Tlio trustceB havo put tho execu

And you know tho only remedy is re

Of curious prayers a writer says; 'I

proceeded to translate it. Another min

boforo the Bormon. In nonconformist

words: 'And now, O Lord, I will re

Why She Shut Down,
"A charming gentleman, about four
years old, used to pnss my houso ovory
day on his way to kiudorgnrtou," said
a lady, "and hi course of tlmo 1 made
his acquaintance and gave a ponny to
him each morning when wo parted.
"Eventually his mothor requested
mo not to glvo any more moiloy to

sent tho usual ponny, Ho did not seem
to notice the omission. Tho succeed

given to him ho said nothing. Hut on
tho morning of tho third day, when tho
penny was not forthcoming, ho sidled
up (o me and whlBpered: 'Whnt's thu

Some Resemblance.
A Ilttlo girl In n Cullfornln public

teacher took Joe, thu only Mexican

tho offense, but tho boy denied It.
"Mary," said the teacher, "Joo says
ho didn't strike you."
"Oh, no," said Maty, '"twan't Joo:

LE88 MEAT
Advlco of Family Physician.
Formerly peoplo thought meat nec
essary for strength und muscular
vigor.
Tho man who worked' hard was sup
posed to requlro meat two or threo
times n day. Science hus found out
differently.
It Ib now a common thing for a fam
ily physician to order less meat, ns in
tho following letter from a N. Y. man.
"I had suffered for years with dys
pepsia and nervousness. My physician
ndvlsed mo to eat loss meat and
greasy foods geuerully. I tried ooveral
things to take tho place of my usual
breakfast of chops, fried potatoes, otc,
but got no roller until I tried Grape
Nuts food.
"After using Grapo-Nuta for tho
corral part of my meals for two years,
I am now n well man. Grape-Nuts
honollted my health far more than tho
$500.00 worth of mcdlclno I had taken,
before.
"My wlfo nnd childron aro hoalthlor
than they had been for years, and wo
aro a vory happy family, largoly duo to
Grapo-NutB.
"Wo havo been so much benefited
by Grape-Nuts that It would bo un
