He was almost a midget and was evidently a man past fifty. His face was Cadaverous and there were deep lines round .his mouth, but In his eyes was the flash of fun and youth. And all the time that Mrs. William thanked him sedately, there was in her mind the extravagant desire to take him home with her to their warm fire and good supper and Billy and "Rabble Burns." For he had crystallized a thought for her; that the habit of pleasant ness means mental fitness; that a cross-grained person Is not a healthy animal. To desire the best, expect the best, demand the best from oth ers, and to acquire the habit of turn ing a tranquil countenance toward the world ? these Imply not what we used to mean by "good nature" but what we mean now by a good mind. HAVE YOU THIS HABIT? (? by Metropolitan Newspaper 8errl<*.) TT DOESN'T matter what yon make, What great amount of money, If you're not saving for the sake Of days that aren't sunny. Some people brag about the dough They're making ev'ry minute, Unless you save a little, though, % My boy, there's nothing In It. A dollar man who saves a dime, A little of the dollar, Is really richer all the time, However they may holler, Than those who make a five or ten. When things are rather humming, And then Just pass it on again. No better for its coming. . t Not what you make but what remains, How much of it you're saving, Will show how much you have of brains, How well you are behaving. So. when a dollar bill has gone Tomorrow through your fingers, Just see that when it passes on A little of it lingers.

Coy, married little more than a year ago, wheeled her three-months-oid daugh ter Dorothy, to a sunny spot on the sidewalk opposite her home in the Beacon apartments, Pacific avenue. Ten minutes later she was horrified to find the child dying under a heap of sand and pebbles thrown into the baby carriage by a group of small children, who had no realization of what they were were doing. The baby was rushed to a hospital, but died soon after arrival there. Parents Will Not Prosecute. Police began a search for the chil dren, but Mrs. Coy, although hysteri cal over the loss of her baby, de clared she would not prosecute them. Her husband, a Jewelry salesman In a Boardwalk shop, also refused to aid the police in rounding up the chil dren. "It was horrible!" cried the mother. "My poor jlittle baby! But I can't prosecute little children for doing something they did not understand." Mrs. Coy told police that a few minutes after she had wheeled the baby out on the sidewalk she glanced out of the window and saw a group of children playing around it None was more than four years old, she said. She thought nothing of their presence around the carriage until she went out to her child. Baby Swallowed Sand. Her screams attracted neighbors, who helped her scrape the sand and pebbles out of the carriage. A physi cian soon arrived. He found the baby i 4 8a nd and Pebbles Thrown Into the Baby Carriage by Small Children. bad swallowed some of the sand and had been partly suffocated.'

Told by the parents that they refused to have the children responsible punished, he an nounced no prosecution would be be gun. "It was a mott unfortunate affair," he added, "but as the mother and fa ther say, there Is no sense trying to punish such small children as those who threw the sand." In spite of the statement of the county physician and other county offi cials, holding the same view, some of the neighbors of Mrs. Coy began a movement to have the identity of the children made public.
