lie, him to a post. with his hands
firmly fastened at his sides, and leave
him there for hours, with the files

is q tribute to Chinese ingenuity,
It will interest American mothers to
know that many nursemaids are
humble and unconscious imitators Of
this Celestial custom. A walk through
any large park on any bright summer
afternoon reveals dozens Of baby car
riages, whose inmates have been left
to their own infant devices, while the
nurses chat together OF with their
friends.
Some Of the babies are too young to
manage their hands inteiligently;
Others have had their hands safely
folded away under the carriage af-
CHAN by their intelligent nurses. All
are the victims of the flies, which
buzz about their rosy faces and set

their helpless baby eyes. Some Of the
babies suffer in silence; others Shrek

cool shade Of the trees around them
and the peaceful murmur Of the
branches above them must seem a bit

reaches the water so near his lips,
some Of these babies never get the
benefit of the beautiful green little

THE WORLDS GREAT
MONEY MASTER

Comparatively few people possess
any very clear conception of what Mr.
Morgan is or does in Wall Street. He
is vaguely compared with Mr.. Keene,
who is a Spectator; with Jay Gould,
who was a wrecker; with Hill and
Hartman, who are strictly railroad
men: with the Astors, who are prlmar-
lily real estate owners; with Mr.. Car
negie, who was an iron master. But
Mr. Morgan's business is purely that
of a banker-a worker with money. He
is not a practical railroad man, nor a
steel manufacturer, nor a coal dealer,
although he is interested in all these
things, because he is constantly buy
ing and selling railroad and steel and
coal stocks.
Sometimes for some specific purpose
he buys so much Of a railroad COM
pany's stock that he and his clients
practically own the railroad, and he
takes a strong position in directing its
policy Not long ago 1 heard an ap-
parently intelligent speaker who con-
veyed the impression that Morgan
bought a railroad out of his surplus
cash as a farmer buys COW. Moth
ing could be furtIa' from the truth.
While Mr.. Morgan must make use Of
his own large means it no doubt forms
but a small part in his vast deals. The
essence of successful banking is con-
nections, otherwise friends. While
coveting large earnings capital is pro-
verbally shrinking and timid, fearing
to strike out boldly for itself. and yet
ever ready to trust itself with conf
dence to the leader whose skill, fore
sight, and cautious daring have been
steadily fruitful of success. Such a
money master is J. Pierpont Morgan.

Magazine for October.

THE NECESSITY OF
BEING A MOTHER

The play (''Miss Multon') had twice
failed in Paris, which was, to say the
least, discouraging. But after brief
reflection, 1 concluded L would risk it,
and then, just by way of encourage
ment. Mr.. Cazauran, who had already
been at pains to speak as kindly Of my
work as it would allow, when he was
critic of the different newspapers, de-
clared that all my acquired skill and
natural power of expressing emotion
would prove useless to me-that Miss
Moulton was to be my Waterloo; and
to all anxious and surprised Why's p"
sapiently made answer: mo children"
mother in reality, 1 could not be one in
imagination.
