was from her that Nckola believes he
received his inventive turn. While a
boy he attended the polytechnic school
at Gratz, where he acquired his first
fascination for mathematics and the
study Of electricity. While still quite
young he obtained a position as as
sistant In the government telegraph
engineering department at Buda-Pesth.
Later he went to Paris, where his
hard work and studies continued.
Later he crossed the Atlantic and OBJ

consideration of various new products

And of course the child concludes

OF course children will cry some
times. Crying is an institution that
cannot be done away with. Crying,

of the little stranger, but the more or

are really of no Importance. treat
them as a good joke. Laugh at them,
and the baby will quickly laugh with

tears away. Besides doing away with
lot of unnecessary crying it teaches
him not to mind little hurts and devel-

does not apply to serious mishaps, but
to those numerous little bumps which
youngsters are continually getting and
which little pity quickly magnifies
into something Of Importance in child

Never giving a child anything he
cries for is another excellent way to
nip in the bud the crying habit. Ifit is
proper for him to have. promise 1T to
him when he stops crying. Reward his
