Talk Goo d Language to Your
Baby.

Call tho little ones ''prec Gus pets"
and ''rosy posies' and "prelty pearls :"
By no means abolish the one beauty OF
baby talk, its lovingness. Administer
every sweet and endear.ng epithet You
can lay your tongue to, but don't let
the good old English words degenerate
into gibberish and jargon. Put your
caresses into your voice, and put not
your trust in dropped or transmogrified
consonants 1t isn't so much what
you say rs the way YOU say it that mat :.
ters. Some of Milton stately but melo-
dious lines would fall upon baby's tym-
panum with far sweeter and more
soothing sound than the senseless slop
that is usually ladled out to him. You
might call him paralellopipedon, and,
provided you pronounced the polysyIa-
bic torture of O'Connelrs fish fag with
caressng softness, I'll be bound baby
would like it better than YOUR pitt
itty sings" electra and nauseam.
Baby talk is all well enough. It's
true inwardness appeals to everybody.
1 animadvert only upon its abuse and
perversion by the thoughtless. The
truth is that baby talk las it is spoke"
is luxury ndulged in only as Il dissi-
patton by tho adult without regard to
the demoralizing effect it may have
upon the infant ear and tongue.
Most of YOU who are addicted to the
practice PROBABLY think baby likes it.
But does hep Bless that little apostl e
of sweetness and light, and abate no jot
or title of his JOY. Give I'm pleasure
in full measure, pressed down and run
ming over, but why take it for granted
that this display of idiocy delights
himp
Oh, We of little faith! Why insult
baby by presuming him as big fool as

Modernized Paradise.

1--WE had pantomimes and charades
at our place last night said the young
man that boards on South Division
street. "Adam and Eve was the first
one"
"Were you Eve?"
No. one OF the elderly lady boarders
was Eve. 1 enacted the role of the
serpent and my roommate was Adam.
He wasn't very realistic Adam, how.
ever. AS i remember the Scripture
story Adam didn't wear three-button
cutaway or celuloid collar. Nor, il
/ recolect Alright, did the serpent trip
about with patent-leathcr pumps on
his feet and clothcsline-colorcd
mustaehe. In spite of these little
detractions. however. contrived 10
persuade Eve to hook tho apple,
though she was rather coy at first.
We didn't have n tree 10 hang it on. so
the girl brought in clothes-horse and
we tied it to that. Eve had taken
but one bite when the read-headed
Adam skipped in and snatchng the
fruit from Eve ate it, core and all He
said that was the way it was done in
the revised version. But as there
wasn't a copy of that around the place
Adam was chased out of Paradise with.
out moments delay and the
pantomime broke up in disorder. -

A Picture.
My an idle moment,

Only an idle moment,
Only thoughtlcss son,
Spurning mothers counsel,
And the work of ruin begun.
Only small beginning,
"a glass for friendships sake"
That will lead him on to his ruin
And many a tear-drop make.
Only mother weeping
For reckless, hayward son;
All of her bright hopes shattered
And fading, one by one.
Only bar-roOm quarrel;
A fight that began in fun.
The fatal blow is given,
And the fearful work is done.
Only heart-brollen mother,
Homeless, and roaming the street.
Only a newly made grave,
And there is the plcture-complete.
