allow the little one CndnCe lOr lIeo-
dom OF motion. The gingham is then
cut bag shape, twelve by fourteen being
the popular number Of inches. This,
when sewed up at the sides and bottom,
is gathered into band with button
holes and buttons. In each lower corner
openings have been made. These are
hemmed and then are ready for the
chubby legs. Drawing them up over
the child's limbs you will find the
dainty clothes snugiy incased and yet
the limbs OF the toddler at liberty TO
move at will.
The Empress Frederick must have
been a deliciously naughty child, II all
the stories told of her Juvenile days are
true. Here are a few stories not quite
familiar:-Walking one day in Windsor
forest with her daily governess, the
Princess, then three years old, showed
a good deal of rather naughty temper.
Look" said the governess, lat that
very nice little girl over there. How
good she is! How quiet!" 81 dare say
she may be-" retorted the little Prin-
cess, "but then l also see she has no
daily governess." "Shall we meet every
one IN heaven?" she asked another time.
ooh, yes, my dear" was the reply.
Surely" thoughtfully remarked the
child, mot DR.. A.?" DR.. A. was an
extremely plain old man. When the
Prince of Wales was born the good news
was conveyed to her small highness.
Are you not pleased with your little
brother?" she was asked some time
later "Oh, no." was the reply. II
would so much rather have had pony"
II you want to mako child think that
1t is OF some Importance in life, teach 1t
to work as soon as 1t can understand q
request or obey an order. Make II under
stand that 1t can look at the magazines
on your table, but that 1t must promise
not to tear them, and must carefully
pile them up just as 1t found them.
That will be a good first lesson, because
every child likes TO look at magazines.
Work makes child feel important, just
as it lifts man out OF the vagabond
ranks to give him employment. A very
little child will save you many steps If
you havo but the patience to teach IL
properly, and thus sow the seeds OF a
future usefulness do not mean that
children should be deprived OF their
plav, or that they should be set to do
tasks that are difficult, but In their
play they disarrange carefully kept
rooms, or scatter their playthings, and
most mothers will fret and worry and
storm at the awful havoc they make,
and yet trail around after them and
pick I'D and replace the things, when
the child that scattered them could be
taught TO do that as well as to take
them down In the first place. Give 1t
to understand that 1t is doing you a
favor, instead Of BORDERING" it TO re-
place its toys, and very soon you will
ind that it will put them up as mat
ter of habit. Praise 1t when II has tried
to do well, no matter what the mis-
taken result may be, and II you censure,
do it in kindness Of spirit. and, above
all things. avoid hurting the self-re-
spect OF your child.
