AMERICAN MOTHERS FAIL.
Too Emotional About Their Babies,
Declares Anna A, Rogers.

Too Emotional About Their Babies,
Declares Anna A, Rogers.
The modern woman is often ac-
cused of being too intellectual, but
that isn't what is the matter with the
American mother, it appears, from an
article in the Atlantic Monthly, by
Anna A. Rogers, on why American
Mothers Fail" American mothers
fail lamentably, according to this wri-
ter, not because they are too intellect
ual, but because they are too emo
tional. LESS heart and more mind
is her cry.
The emotional mother worships her
baby and neglects her older children,
the article points out, to the great in
jury of both.
THE love madness of a young
mother for her tiny infant, poetical
and picturesque as it is, is harmful in
many ways" says Miss Rogers. ut
is to great extent a sensuous obses-
sion, to which in this country the
husband and father is, all too often,
ruthlessly sacrificed. If this sacrifice
were in the least justified by the
needs of the infant there would be
little to criticise, but it is distinctly
not so justified in the average middle
class household. A phlegmatic nurse
whose ministrations are rooted in
duty alone is not only equally good
for the baby, but is very much better.
1t is but seed, and all the better, as
are other seeds, for being left undis-
turbed to sleep it's way into life.
IF the child does not need all this
frenzy of watching and excited cod
ding of the more or less hysterical
mother, then it is not only unwise
but cruel to subject the bewildered
young father to the half tragic, half
comic tyranny of an American house
hold ruled by young baby.
Those hours of needless neglect
on the part of the wife are very often
the entering wedge which some day
will separate the two. The child, in
stead of bringing them closer togeth-
er, is the innocent cause of their
growing apart"
Then comes reaction. More than
one American mother has admitted to
Miss Rogers curious sudden reac-
ton of Indifference against her once
worshiped baby after the fifth year.
The ecstatic mother passion of earlier
days has mysteriously fled, just as the
wife ecstasy had fed in its turn. She
admitted it, as if it were an interest
ing psychic phenomenon, ard she
helpless to right it-just when the
child really begins to need her ten
derness, her time, all of her wisdom
and gravest consideration"
The gist of the article is that it is
much better, when possible, to leave
a baby to nurse and give personal
attention to an older child, to leave
their material needs to others and de-
vote more time to their mental and
spiritual needs. Tits far less strain"
says one mother, ito play with chill
dren than to punish them" and a
larger percentage of the sins of child
hood are based on lack of intelligent
diversion. The sensational amuse-
ments provided for children are
strongly condemned, and law pro-
hibiting children under the age of
fifteen from entering theatre" is
suggested.
The fathers are left out of the hon.
lily because they have elected to shed
family responsibilities. save that OF
lavish monetary support"

Practical photography first saw the
light in 1880. On February FL OF
that year Talbot, who had obtained
permanent prints and camera images
s.s early as 1885, published his pro-
cess. Daguerre's was published on
August 10, and somewhere between
those two dates Ponton, in a paper
read at the Royal Scottish Society OF
Arts, made known to the world his
discovery that soluble organic mat
ter, in the presence of an alkaline bi
chromate, was rendered insoluble by
exposure of light-a discovery the
value of which was not recognized
for some years, but which is the basis
of all that is included in process

THEY GROW
Good Humor and Cheerfulness from

Cheerfulness is like sunlight. n

Anything that interferes with good
health is apt to keep cheerfulness and
good humor in the background. A
