There are witnesses enotigh to the child's degradation and to the wretchedness and squalor of his home. Men and women testified to having seen the child drunk; to his smoking eigarets and cigars; to his taste for both beer and whisky. The judge was wonder struck. In the effort to corroborate one phase of the abnormal tastes of the child he was offered a cigar in the presence of the court. The child seized it eagerly and told the judge that of all things he liked a eigaret best. This was five weeks ago. The judgment of the court was that May Tim should be sent to the Chicago Industrial Home at Woodstock, Me and there be went in the care of Aire. Styles, an officer of the court. There for a month Timmie has made -his home with Matrott W. E. 33ardwell, wife of the manager of the institu- tion and mother 'lb the forty-five children whom fate has made ,home- leSs elsewhere. Cigaret victims are not new to the hoine. They have been numerous enough there that the matron, at a glance, can mark them. But g all odds, Timmie is the youngest victim of the "colrumall" that ever has come to the notice of the manage- ment. TIMMIE'S TWO 'MOODS. When l'immy Sullivan, 5 years old, was registered at the homehe weigh- ed only twenty-eight pounds. Ile lia,d just two moods: Placed in a chair he would sit there, hour after hour, inalcing no move nor asking to be moved or fed, or he would stand in one Spot as long with never a com- plaint, or on the' other hand he would become offended at Some of the little Ones making a home in the place and would pounce upon them like a fury, using his` nails upon his victims' faces with tigerish eflect. In, the main, the victim of the child's nails would be a technical aggressor; be would have bumped in- to Timmie, or touched him with an elbow, or croevded him itt bed, When the victim bad done so he found the way of the transgressor to be hard twice& Thus one of the first move- ments toward the diseiplining of Tintmie was the cotting of his nails dose and smooth to the shin, ThiS, with an oceasioual slapping of the hangs after an attack, virtually had robbed Tinuele ef the caw interestieg Wiese of his character, when tho breaking out of the measles in the home and the innoculation of Tine - We with the disease put hiin wholly out of the tight.

Out of this experience Miss Luce- rne() Gaston has no nsoro stanch be- liever in the evils of the paper cy- linder with its unnamed and perhaps unnamable contents. "I can tell thei eigaret 'fiend' the moment / see him," said Mrs. Bard - well. .."rho look is in his eyes from the first moment. Within an hour I can tell by the boo's manner. The first marked actions of the boy who has been smoking eigarets is shown in his restlessness when. he cannot get them. From nervousness his condition becomes hysterinal and fin- ally it amounts almost to madness. "For instance, we had a boy hero a year ago wbo was crazed from us- ing them. We would find him walk- ing about the house at night, awake, but 'unable to tell why be had got out of bed or what he \vented. He had no memory for anything, and while we could make him understand that it was folly for him to go about that way, he could not re- member it. Night after night for two weeks that boy went around the place like a ghost. He showed the effect of the drugged tobacco for weeks after that, but think if you should go out in. the play room now you would find it hard to pick him out, though he is there. "As to Timenie, he never has ask- ed for cigarets or for whisky since he has been here. In fact, except when he has been. in it furious tem- per, Ile has been in it comparatiVe stupor. At times of late he has been in a state of seeming despond- ency. Occasionally we find him with tears streaming down: his face in tor- rents; he doesn't make a sound at such times, but it is marked that he is despondent. There is zio possible cease that we can discover for these moods. He is a riddle to us.all." In stature the child is normal, per- haps is a. little taller than most of the other ebildren of his age.'
