the world: There is one time in girls
life when she can usually have anything
she likes. 1t is when she is about 10. The
neighbors begin to wonder why she is
given so many new dresses, and why heI
mother and father seem so anxious to
please her. She has the air of ruler who
has been offended by her people, and who
is debating whether she will forgive them
or not, When she comes into the house
her mother looks at her anXiOusly, to see
if she is feeling any kinder toward her
Her father shares her worry, and il is at
this time of her life when she is given the
gold watch she has always begged for in
vain. Do you know what the trouble is:
There is a new baby expected in the family,
and her parents are are trying to recon
Gle her to it.
