' AX EAST SIDE CHARITY. JUSTICE TOWARD THE POOR AND LOVB FOR THE UNATTRACTIVE IS MRS LATHROP'S MOTTO.

No. m Water-at. "The mountain of negligence," she continued, "dwelling within our city 1s trembling and sliding away from Its resting rlace upon the hearts of the poor. At any rate, to those who are eagerly look? ing for such signs, there seem? to be h more hope? ful effort of activity than ever before. The Ameri? can fiaste Is distinguishing Itself on a plane as noble as that of liberty?namely, .?ustiee toward the poor and love toward the unattractive." Yet. In spite of her courage, Mrs. Lathrcn's work Is anything but encouraging, and one can only wonder, when she tell?? about it. hcv.? she contrive to see the smallest glimmer of light in the sltun tlon. "One of my protegees," she said. "Is a widow with three children, only one of them being able to Obtain steady work (at reduced wap.es). For sev? eral years the mother has been unable to move upon her feet without agony, and she is now also suffering from a terrible cancer In her side. 8hrt has sewed on a machine until lately, but I have for some weeks been paying her the sum she could earn, in order that she may lave som? chance of recovery.

"The needs In this family ar?? really harrowing. but 1 can only supply a little food, sherry wine for the mother vvhtn she I? faint, a few pieces of clothing, and the pittance which the mother used to earn at the risk of her life and the greater tor? ment of her cancer. ' A widow who is too lame to walk, because of two terrible sores, has been wholly dependent upon me for six months, and I may soon be obliged ? give up the care of her and let her go to the poor house. "I pay her rent monthly <$4 50?. and pay $1 a week for service given by another needy woman who receives treatment from me. I give about M cents a day for food and fuel: buy medicines, washes and '? salves, and some clothing for her. "I wish some persons who care for the truth in such matters as these would come and see how : simple and genuine and sad are the needs of the poor who call upon me for help. "The few case? ? know are representative of a boat of others not vet unearthed, whose existence, though burled In dar .ness and silence, Is the city'? disgrace, the country's cancer."
