Children a Ssyages.

About the time when baby begins to
put away monkey manners, and to
stand on two feet like q man, he be-
gins to show, in q very marked degree,
the characteristics of savage tribes.
For two or three years Of this part of
his life the best baby is a little savage.
His ideas Of property are intensely
savage. He may be said to be always
more or less son the grab" Il object
to slang as much as any man, but
really there is no other way of describ-
ing the tendencies exhibited at this
stage Of baby's ~career.) If he has
small brothers or sisters Tor both he
is always more or less at war with these
neighboring savages. If he is deprived
of anything he has come to regard as
his property (quite mistakenly, it may
well be), or If he see In the hands OF
his small kinsfolk any goods or chat
tells which seem pleasing In his eyes,
he has but me way Of expressing his
wishes: he goes for the possession Of
the desired object, using his hands as
weapons if he has no others handy, but
bringing down a stick, OF brush, or
book las the Ease may BEL on the head
of his enemy with all the zeal of a
Fijian or an Ojibbeway on the war
path. Girl babies are pretty nearly
as bad as boy babies in these matters,
only the girl savage differs from the
boy savage much as savage woman diff
fers from savage man. Of course,
there are many baby boys and baby
girls who show little tendency to
savagery, just rs there have been un-
cultured races of men who have been
gentle and innocent. But the quiet
babies are always weak and unhealthy.
In the struggle for existence they sue
cumb before their more ferocious
brothers, just as the quiet and gentle
savage tribes, perish before their toma-
hawk-iiourishing, spear-throwing, club
welding neighbours Belgraria.

A Curious Puzzle.

The following curious puzzle is said
to beat the celebrated "18-14-15," and
is well worth investigating; Take a.,
strip of paper or cardboard thirteen
inches long and five wide, thus giving
a surface Of sixty-five inches. Now,
cut this strip ~diagonally al true as you
can, giving two pieces in the shape OF
a triangle, and measure exactly Eve
inches from the large end Of each strip
and cut in two pieces; take these strips
and put them into the shape of an ex-,.
act square, and it will appear to be just
eight inches each way, or ~sixty-four
square inches, a loss Of m square inch
of superficial measurement with NO
elimination of surface. The question
Is. what becomes of that inchp
