Keep the birthdays religiously. They

some token, be 1t ever SO light, to show
that It's remembered. Birthdays are
great, even to children. For one day
they are heroes. The special pudding
Is made expressly for them a new
jacket or trousers with pockets, or the
first pair of boots, are donned; and big
brothers and sisters sink into insiguifi-
ance beside little Charly, who Is "six

tie ones to care for are apt to neglect
birthdays, they come too often, some
times when they are busy, and some-
times when they are nervous but If
they only knew how such souvenirs
are cherished by the children, years
after, they would never permit any
cause to step between them and pa
