A cool head and the gift of calm
reasoning power are virtues not to be
set aside as gifts of no significance,
for either one, or both. will often tide
the owner over troublous situations.
The man or woman who can see ahead
in the distance, and do his or her own
thinking, is not unusual, to be sure,
but so few put these gifts into use that
when we find one capable of acting
and thinking judiciously, even in mat
ters of small moment, we are apt to
applaud, as it were, and look to them
for guidance.
Usually such people have to do the
thinking and planning, not only for
themselves but for others as well, and
it is good when we find them among
us, for without their great powers of
reasoning we would often be dashed
on the rocks Of destruction, If left to
ourselves, to solve the problems which
beset US from day to day.
It is perhaps for just this reason
that we depend on the students of cur
rent events and everyday topics to get
to the bottom of the burning questions
of the day, and bring them, solved, TO
us on the speakers platform or in pub
lie debate.
In short, we allow someone else to do
our thinking for us, and applaud and
cheer when they bring us the solution
which was within our own power, II
we had but made use Of our faculties.
We permit ourselves to be swayed
by the judgment of others in things
great and small, when, If we but exert
ed ourselves we might have become
the leading power.
Would it not be better, then, to de-
pend upon our own judgment and ex-
ercise our own powers Of reasoning.
rather than to rely on someone else?
If our associates are capable of doing
so, why not us? Shall we try?

freddy Bear Patterns.

"Please let me have a pattern for a
pair of overalls for a Teddy bear" said
woman to a local department store
clerk yesterday afternoon, and If you
can I wish you would also show me
patterns of Teddy bears overcoats and
SUITS she added, as the girl turned
to the shelves.
To think we have come TO this! The
children must not only have Teddy
bears, but they must have them
dressed in all fashions and styles.
"Where and o where have the little
dolls gomez" is the lay we will all be
singing if the animal craze continues
much longer.
Even now you can enter almost any
home where there are children and
find the young rulers bestowing their
affectionate attention upon stuffed
bears and woody dogs, while in the
corners lie deserted and detected
"Sapphira Elizabeths" and MARY
James," who once reigned in waxen or
ragged splendor over the hearts of their
tickle owners.

when We Were Little Girls.

Why, when you and l were wee little
girls.f our dolls always ranked first
in our lists of playthings
They were even more than play
things, for we used to tell them all of
our secrets, finding in them ready and
patient listeners, who wore the same
sweet smiles no matter how long we
talked or to what heights our imagina-
tions carried us.
Our dolls were very real to us, and
what if we did spank them soundly
and put them supperless to bed once
in a while! 1t was only proof of the
depths of our affection and of our de-
sire to bring them up properly.
Now, how can any little girl, with
any amount of motherly instinct,
bestow her love and condolences upon
the pudgy, little, unresponsive face of
a Teddy bear?
OF course they are cunning, with ex-
pressions that make you smile in spite
of yourself, but they can never, never
properly fill the sacred place which be-
longs to Dollie, and to Dollie alone.

The "teeny'' tiniest little girl knows
just how to hold a dollie. even when
she holds one for the first time. And
the pretty way in which she smoothes
It's hair and pats its face is but a
natural expression of the deep instinct
of motherhood which is born in every
woman.
Children are receptive, and ideas they
receive are sure to obtain deep root.
Teach your little girls to love their
dollies. and to care for them as true
mothers should, and the mother in
stinct will grow, and grow, and grow.
even after the dollies are cast aside,
and your daughter will be the sweeter
and the more gentle.
"Sapphira Elizabeth and "Mary
Jane" by every right in the world,
have first place in the hearts of the
coming mothers OF the country. and the
Teddy bear shall not be allowed to
usurp their places. if you and I can
help 1t.
Let the little girls love their Teddy
bears, but do not let them love them
most. 1t isn't square. MOLLIE.
