Gone to a Better Place, Real Photo Postcard, Circa 1920, Reverse

This is a child of poverty who died, most likely, of disease. Despite the shabby surroundings, the photographer has managed to capture the pure light falling on the child's forehead, cheeks, and chin, giving the image a soft and peaceful atmosphere.
The writing on the reverse of this real photo postcard, appears to be Eastern European, and hopefully someone can translate it for me.
