Harry was well taken care of aboard the liner ‘and had no lack of mothers, for every woman on the ship “wanted to hold him just a minute.” | Rot guilty Six months ago Mr. and Mra, J. B. Jager, the parents of Harry, decided to leave their home in Hamburg and come to America, Harry was ill and the par- ents decided not to risk him on an ocean voyage, so the buby was left in the care of relatives, Papa and Mamma Jager have been yearning for thelr boy and asked that he be sent to them.
