Indian Babies.

Babies cry very little in India-they
obey spiritual law as flower. The
lotus bud, lying on stone bench in
a dirty room, sucks it's toe and seems
dreaming of the pranks of baby Krish-
ma, and solving problems of the uni
verse. AS it grows older it is very timid
and shy in the presence of its elders.
1t feels the religious awe around it
and does not break out into boisterous
sport when all seems at prayer. But
there is much love in India and these
humble households seem very happy.
They are all-in-all to each other and
seek nothing outside either in society
or amusement. Beautiful character
comes from obedience to law and not
from lawlessness. In India children
are the crowning gift of life. 1t is a
horror to be childless.-Edmund Rus
