HABIT BEGINS EARLY

a large audience last night at the First
Congregational Church. Jersey City, on
THE Baby, It's Physical and Moral Edu-
cation" He said in part; Every child
has a right to a healthy start in life. TN
less his parents are strong and well he
ought never to be born, and when he is
born he should receive a hearty welcome.
A baby is something more than a toy. he
is. a serious burden, for the carrying Of
which God gives the mother an unusual
measure of love. Fortunately the parents
| think their baby is the ostswonderful
child in existence, and hence 1t receives
the tende- care 1t requires. Everything
that baby does is charming. Its crooked
little eyes. boxing two ways at the same
time are just too sweet for anything IFS
cooling and prattling is heavenly music.
Father dances him on his knee, mother
kisses him twenty times a day and gives
everyone they meet the same privilege.
The baby is q perpetual source of comfort
and amusement, but he requires a vast
amount of attention. Indeed a human
child is one of the most helpless creatures
in existence. A chicken runs about the
day it is Matched and seeks its own food,
but a baby that could walk about in six
months would be a prodigy. 1t must be
waited en- constantly, and IL its wants are
not attended to promptly. 1t knows how to
rouse the neighborhood with a soprano So
10 which has more strength than beauty.
