The Pleasant Mother.

There are many conscientious fathers
and mothers who make themselves and
their children miserable by taking
youthful foibles too seriously. 1t is an
innate propensity Of a child possessed
OF average good health and spirits TO
make older people laugh with him--not
at him. but at the things that seem
amusing to his own sense. And the
mother who has the blithe and ready
humcr TO enter into his fun becomes
his most fascinating companion. He
heeds her rebukes and bends to her
correction without ill-feeling. where
stcrnncss would arouse his pride and
ire, for he Is assured that she is ready
10 share all his innocent pranks. and
that her dlsapproval has no foundation
in Impotence or injustice. And when
the day arrives that "childish things
are put away" and the grown men and
women look backward to their early
homes. with what a throb of pleasure
they say. when things happen, Mother
would appreciate this: she had the
quickest sense of humor of any woman
YOU ever saw And underneath these
licat words is the thought, How
happy that dear mother made me, and
how ! love her.

one Of those connected with the art
department of the st. Louis Exposition
is quoted as saying:
woman will stand on an equality
with man at the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition. No special classification in
exhibits is made for woman's work,
and no building as Mt Chicago. but in
all the manifold ramifcations of eX-
position work woman participates.
Woman will hold a place in the jurics
of award. Woman sculptors and
painters have done some of the finest
work on the Exposition buildings.
Women have had places OH Govern
ment, State and other boards in the
collection of exhibits and in the ex-
plotation of the Exposition. There
are even women concessionaircs. and a
woman contractor competed with men
in the actual physical construction OF
the Exposition"
