NO WONDER WOMEN ARE VAIN.
J. Is Cultivated by Their Mothers from
Earliest Childhood.

WoMen generally are credited with a
wonderful amount Of vanity in their
composition. And vet when one takes
into consideration the fact that this
characteristic is instilled into their
natures from the time Of their earliest
childhood the wonder is that they are
not absolutely unbearable Mothers
naturally delight in having their little
ones dressed well, and among the first
impressions that a child receives is the
attention that good clothes demand
and the amount of time and labor that
are expended upon them.
Even tiny babies realize when they
are dressed up, and rs time goes on the
love of inery grows with their growth,
and their daily actions and thoughts
are influenced largely byit. Playmates
and classmates who dress well are Sc
lected in preference TO those whose gar
mentS are not cut in the latest style or
Of the finest material.
More tears are shed because of the
inability L secure new bits of finery
than are ever caused hy rebukes or de-
mails Of any sort. Clothes are made
the feature in a little girls life that
dominates all other attributes, and
when the child grows to be a woman
people condemn her for being vain and
frivolous when in reality she is but
living up to the earliest ideas that have
been sown in the budding mind.
II parents do not wish their daugh-
tiers to be called vain and silly they
should at the beginning Undue them
with IDEAS that are not teeming with
the impressions of sslf-adornment.
Teach them that life has other aims
and better work, that the noblest ma
lures dwell in the plainest tenements,
and that though it is ones duty TO look
IS well as possible it becomes a sin
when every thought is given to the
identifying of the person at the sacri-
fee of other motives that tend to the
accomplishment of a more gracious
purpose. Philadelphia Times,

No word she answer back,
She shows that she can act sublime
To get a sealskin sacque.
Although her taste you'd not deny,
You mus admit Il mars
The seasons joy 10 have her buy
You neckties and cigars.
She makes YOU drink Of sorrows cup
To gain the kids applause;
For now she likes to rig you up
To look like Santa Claus.
Though ready for the yearly strike,
II hits you rather fanny;
She to know first what you'd iise
Then asks you for the money,
