The plan succeeded from the first Most of t..i' young married people in the community were of modest means and did not keep a maid. They were glad to find an intelligent and respon- sible person to stay in the house when they wished to go out. "Of course the baby never wakes up, but if he -should Susan would know what to Ho," was the way they ex- prcs.sed their approval of the scheme. The business soon grew to satisfy- ing proportions. The girl's friends quickly told others of the plan, and in a short time the project of keeping house for sleeping babies was bringing an income of three, four, and some- times even five, dollars a week.
