HOW DOES cHILD's MIND WORK
Some Reflections Prompted by Little
Chaps Devotion to His Shoes.

SOfne nSTeCIiOHS TIoHlPeSe " 1'sh'S
Chaps Devotion to His Shoes.
When child shows an absorbing de-
votion to an object which has nothing
to do with his entertainment or COM
fort, how is his mind working? What
does the object represent to him? 1t
has come, by some strange process of
babyish reasoning, to stand for ST.
preme beauty, and when he goes fur
Their and for the sake of the object
will endure hardship and venture dan
ger, isn't the child in the position of
the savage in regard to his fetch?
May not his devotion be called the
stirring of the religious instinct?
These reflections are prompted by
the behavior of little boy 2 years
old, little chap rather more than
ordinarily self-willed and intelligent.
His popularity first showed itself to a
his arrival. He is very shy of strang-
ers, and positively refused to have
anything to do with the newcomer,
who expended all her Establishments
in vain.
Then suddenly he came near, for
the moment quite fearless.
Where did you get new shoes?"o he
asked. Did faver give 'em to you?"
The visitor acquitted father of any
connection with the purchase of the
shoes, and the baby drew away again.
After brief interval he came back.
Have you got on stockings, too?'
he inquired. On being assured that
she had, the child inspected them
carefully and then again went away,
refusing to linger for further CONVERSE
ton. 81.
The mother explained that new shoes
and stockings were the child's chief
earthly joy. Some time before his
father had brought home a pair of
new shoes for him. He put them on
and for the rest of the day went about
with an awed expression. At night
when he was being undressed he
begged to be allowed to go to bel
with his shoes on. He was told that
people didn't do that, was tucked up
protesting and left to go to sleep.
When the family got up from dinner,
an hour after, they heard sounds of
crying from the nursery. On inspec-
ton they found the baby sobbing bit
terly. He had been crying ever since
he was left alone because his shoes
had been taken from him. When they
We're put on, sticking out oddly from
his little nightdress, he curled up and
went to sleep peacefully.
For days after that ne walked care
fully, though by nature a tomboy. He
never ran out in the rain, his favorite
trick, because his shoes got wet. He
stopped stamping his feet when he
was naughty because it was bad for
the shoes. He could be got to do
anything in the world by an appeal to
the shoes.
Stockings worked upon him in the
same fashion. If he did not go to
sleep as soon as he was left in the
nursery, he would climb out of his
crib, drag a new stocking from the
