Mrs. Rose Ponnell was sitting with two
of her children. Clifford and Goldle, In
their home, 2213 Dodge street, Friday
evening when they heard an odd sound
on the front porch.
"Oucrs it's Just the cat." said Clifford.
But it didn't sound like the cat. So
Mrs. Ponnell went to Investigate and
found a baby! Yea, sir, a regular human
baby ! . ' j
Ah, the glorious mystery of a baby's
effect on woman's heart!
How Mrs. Donnell fluttered about! How
soma women roomer In the house arrived
there as' If by maglo ' when they heard
the bahy'fl voice!"
How they fondled it! How they fed It
with milk from a spoon! How they car
ried it into a darkened room and sang
lullabys to Itl How they smoothed its
clothes and kissed Its dimpled cheeks
and chubby hands! ,
Mrs. Donnell finally called up the au-
thorltles and soon cams 'Detectives Dunn f
and Kennelly.
They looked upon the baby with mas
culine calmness. They poked stubby
flngerr into baby's velvety cheeks. They j
spoke In baby language thus: "Da-da,"
"Kltsy-ltsy."
Dunn looked at the pretty little waif
and sagely remarked:
" 'Bout months old."
But he didn't go away with his pre- '
tense of wisdom about babies, for Mrs.
Donnell exhibited a note found pinned
on the bundle. It read:
Born February 19, 1918. I can't keep
her. Please give baby a home."
It was the farewell note of a sorrowing
mother making the greatest sacrifice that
poverty can force a mother to make.
The child was fully dressed and had a
cotton flannel nightgown and a thin serge '
coat wrapped around it.
And, so, after the women had kissed
It goodbye a dosen times It was bundled
up and entrusted to the two big men,
who took it to the Child Saving Institute.
One of its little hands took firm hold on
Dunn's forefinger as he carried it away.
"Oh, I'd have loved to keep it," said
Mrs. Donnell later. "If I'd only had some
way to take care of It. Tt was such a dear
little thing. I've had six phone calls this
morning from women who wanted to
adopt it."

For Your Own Protection a Paige
We want you and your family to FIND FOR
YOURSELVES in this new Paige Fleet
wood "Six-38" ($1050) all the VALUE
and QUALITY which, we claim, make it
supreme among five-passenger motor cars.
We want you to find for yourself the tre
mendous POWER, sturdiness and reliabil
ity of the motor. You will need this on
steep hills, in sand, for all those road-condi-
tions that bring out the real worth of a
motor. We want you to find for yourself
the flexibility of the motor (from a speed
of 2yi miles an hour to almost a mile a min
ute) and the remarkable ease of control.
We want you to see for yourself the beauty
of line and design, the elegance and the
luxury of the equipment and furnishing
throughout.
We want you to find for yourself the REAL
VALUE and QUALITY and SUPREM
ACY of Paige cars.
Last year the "Six-36M sold for $1095. Now wt
offer you the Fleetwood "Six-38" with a longer
wheelbase (117 inches), with even more luxur
ious roominess, with even more elegance in up
holstery and furnishing throughout, with a motor
even more powerful and flexible. Now we offer
you in the new five-passenger Fleetwood a .
greater car a larger car a more luxurious car
and a reduction of $45 in price.
In their efforts to keep pace with Paige cars the
Fleetwood and the seven-passenger "Six-46"
other manufacturers of Light Sixes are introduc
ing radical features new designs new power
plants new engineering theories. These are all
experiments.
Why should YOU risk an experiment?
Why should YOU consider anything but the na
tional standards of six-cylinder value the five
passenger Fleetwood "Six-38" at $1050 and the
seven-passenger Fairfield "Six-" at $1295? '
Taige cars have won the overwhelming endorse
ment, of the American people. They have been
perfected to the current hour of motor car build
ing. They are built and backed by one of the
strongest companies in the industry.
Why buy anything but a proven, an established
success? Why anything bat a Paige?
