MAKE THEM LAUGH.

you want to know how to invest

had my to invest. l suppose it's the

less, l am fond OF children, and never
having had an opportunity of raising
any Of my OWE, l am critical about the
way other people, more fortunate than
!, raise theirs.
my brother has a y~oungster, a boy
about six years old, and everything
that kid wants he cries for. The min
ute he begins to cry he gets 1t, which.
according to my reasoning, is all
wrong.
tsWhy not make him laugh for It'll
It's Just as easy for 8 child to laugh as
to cry, and it's far more healthful, be-
sides being much more cheerful for
the surrounding populace.
ssI've tried the experiment with him,
and it works like a charm. II / hap
pen to have anything he wants. and he
cries for it, l make fun OF him. That
Isn't the way to get It, / say. Don't
cry for 1t. Laugh for it.
s'It took only about two lessons for
