Tho Ws,fare Of Children.

There is a distinct advance in intelli-
gent grownup interest in child life.
Mr.. Howells, Miss Laroom and Edward
Everett Hale have all given US interest
ing books embedying their own recollec-
tons Of childhood. Mrs. De Land is
writing charsning novel whose main
interest is in prsblems Of childish psy-
chology, and Mrs. Pnrnett promises q
similar volume. Daring the recent
meeting of the Association Of College
Alunanse it was evident that one Of the
most interesting branches Of work taken
up by college bred women is systematic
and scientific study of the development
-physiologic, psychologist and ethical

ton of the interesting points Of the
young human animal is significant. 1t

thousands Of dollars 8 year on dress sent
for ne and gave me an old garment to
make over for house wear, says dress
maker. "There were trimmings and
Innings to buy, but she gave me no
money. Of course it Yves taken for

waited in the hallway of the rich wom-

speak to one of the servants about it.

inquire about it. Soon she returned

The Doll Sale.

The doll sale at the First Parish opened
at the parish house yesterday afternoon.
The rooms presented a very attractive
appearance with their evergreen trim
mings and gaily dressed dolls. The cafe
is separated from the main room by a
beautiful screen, made entirely of spruce
and here light refreshments are served.
But the dolls are the centre of attrac-
ton. There are all kinds Of dolls; big
dolls and little dolls, American dolls and
foreign dolls. In one group are flower
girls, in close communication with a
Dutch washerwoman, Red Riding Hood
and Russian peasants. Little Eva, Uncle
Tom and Topsy are also there. Priscil-
la, lady of 1850, and the Three Little
Maids seem to be on friendly terms. But
the most fascinating of all is the Mother
Goose table. There is an unmistakable
Mother Goose, surrounded by crowd of
her children. The Three Wise Men of
Gotham are there in their bowl, and Lit
tie Miss Moffet is trying to escape from a
truly terrible spider. Jack and Gill,
with their up-turned pail, Tommy Shocks
and Betty Brooks, Little Boy Blue, and
great many more of those delightful
friends of our childhood, looking as
though they had just stepped out of the
story, were a source of delight to both
old and young. At circular booth in
the centre of the room is sold delicious
homemade candies. In the evening,
cradle songs of different nations were
sung in costume. This was very effect
i've, the songs being sung behind the
screens, and the children were grouped
to represent home scenes of various ma
tons. The sale will continue today, and

Raphaers Theological Virtue.

1t is vain to accuse Raphael, as did
certain of his contemporaries, Of not
having sufficient theological virtue, in
asmuch as he painted virgins that were
too humanity adorable. Raphael con-
formed his painting to his ideas and his
sentiments. He expressed his soul, just
as Lippo Lippi, Botticelli, Mantegna,
Bellini and Perqgino expressed their
souls, each one differently, and in man.

There is no indication of any disposi-
tion to 20 on with the gas board inves-
tication. What stands in the way2 Is
there no desire to give to an honest
man the benefit of this ready method Of
vindication2 AS there is not likely to
be an investigation, why doesn't the
board act on the suggestion already
presented to it through the columns Of
the INrELlIdENcER2 Its auditor being
asked by the INTELLrsENcER for the
truth of the charges, refused to throw
any light on them, and being pressed
further declared his readiness to tell all
he knows if the board will unseal his
mouth.
This is even better way, because
shorter way, to get at tho facts and
bring out the vindication. The auditor
knows. Let him tell. and let him tell
it all. The INrELIIoENcER believes that
the people will be satisfied with this,
no matter which side may be helped
by it. Sides have little to do with it,
The board owes at least this much to
the people and to its late secretary, who
finally concluded to ask for an investi-

Tho Truth OF the NIatter.

The esteemed Register is hereby pc.
litely informed that West Virginia Re-
publicans are not disturbed by the COM
ing of General" Adlai Stevenson and
shall be at no pains to try to break the
force of any demonstration of which he
might be the central figure. It is, how
ever, true that West Virginia Republi-
cans have taken pains to 90 to the
bottom Of General Stevenson's labor
record, as it is further true, as the Reg
iaer alleges, that an intelligent and
trustworthy miner went to Illinois to
investigate on the spot the truth Of the
charges against the valiant warrior
whose only triumphs have been over
fourth class postmastera and organized
labor.
OF course the Register neither under
stands nor appreciates this original
method of investigation. Its own habit
is to take at secondhand the campaign
documents sent out by Democratic COM
mittees. On our side OF the house we
prefer to know for ourselves and to be
able to speak by authority.
The publication made in these col
umns with regard to stevenson's labor
record is based upon personal investi-
CATION and is true. The Register is at
liberty to make out of it all it can. 1t
may be said, however, for the infOrma-
ton OF the Register, that the INTELLIGEN-
cER's publication has made very deep
impression and has not yet run its
course.
