At the corner of Stanyan and H streets a foundation is being dug for a buflding. In one corner of this some refugees had erected a tent. The water from Ashbury Heights came with a rush, and they had scarcely time to get out when it was over the floor of the canvas home. The family owned two handsome dogs, and these re- fused to leave the tent until the water was 0 deep that they had to swim. They were seen mournfully guarding the flood- ¢d tent by hundreds who passed on the Beach cars.

Scott Makes a Depot of Her Fine Home. i |Apparel Is Now Ready for Three Hundred Little Ones. Is there a little infant in your fam- ll]y. my good man?. And are all the | bootees and pinning-blankets and | wrappers lost, that your patient little wife had gathered together with in- finite love and care? Then cheer up! Things aren’t nearly so bad as they might be, for I know just where you can get the wee thing every bit of ’clntmng it needs. But you'd better be quick about it. Those “little wee things'” have awful tempers if they aren’t cared for prop- erly. In babyland there must be plenty of warmth and ¢omfort. Besides, it’s up to you to start the baby off with the best possible im- pre ns of his new habitat—which certainly calls for apologies on your part, though the fault may not be all your own. Schlitz P Now, for that repository of the cunningest—I was almost on the verge of perpetrating ‘‘sweetest' aggregation of relief things in town. | It's out in the beautiful home of |the A. W. Scotts at 305 Buchanan street, where Mrs. Scott has main- tained a depot for helpfulness, aid and good cheer. And of the latter she has given of her own illimitable store to the heavy-laden. Yesterday I chanced to drop in there—the temporary home of the California Club, by the way—and this is what I found: The reception room a third full of nurses’ “outfits, crisp and new as a new dollar note, the chairs and tables laden with “comfy” underwear; the drawing room piled high with baby things, with every- thing necessary for the wee tykes, from bootees to bonnets, all duly labeled and enumerated. Of course, there were other things for needy brethren, such as dresses, coats und aprons for little maids, and dresses for mammas, not to mention an assortment of clothes for papas— or other men. | But it was things that caught my woman’s eye, for well I hno“ the griefs that the loss of the little wardrobes must have wrought— for where indeéd among the poor was the money to purchase new ones? And now the problem is being solved by Mrs. Scott and her faithful co-workers, Mrs. Alexander McCal- lum, Miss Provost, Mrs. A. P. Wird- nerel and Mrs. A. V. Brown. In that drawing room lie three hun- dred outfits for three hundred babies —think of it. And over three hun- dred have already been distributed, which is something of a record for one station in one month. (Washing- ton, D. C., papers please copy.) And the knowledge that the prom- ised little ones will be welcomed in warm flannels and cosy gowns will go a long W to lighten the load of many a weary little woma heart.
