His infatuation with school work is
not always immediate and irremedi'

opportunity for going to school is van.
dshing and all the rest Of his days he
will have periods of penitence over
his folly, and will frequently wish the
teacher or his parents had taken the
big stick to him unflinchingly. Some
times he never cares for what he has
missed; but we seldt m find that sort
of a man His teacher. as an essential
part of the school system, may fall
under the same reprobation, till his
period of incorrigible antipathy for
schools is over and then that same
keacher will rise into heroic stature
before his eyes.

Black Lace ParasoIs Revived.

These, II covered with handsome
Spanish lace, are never very moder-
ate in price. Yet for $50 a style now
comes that is reminiscent Of our ear
Hest girlhood. The exquisite pattern
of the lace Is set of to advantage by
the lining Of dead white chiffon cloth.
A full, ripping rufie Of black chiffon
and lace droops down over the frame.
The handle is Of black or black and
white enamel combined with gun
metal. The same model may be had
in all black, If desired.
A black silk parasol with many ribs
is finished along its edge with a deep
silk fringe, giving much the same eff
feet as the fluffy lace rufie described
above. This. however, is $40 less in
cost than the other style.-Vogue.

By DRLS.KRJLEy

II he has a brother and sister I
not, he is a most unfortunate creature
almost as unfortunate as II he had
no parents. II the home is full o.
children. all the better; and best o.
al. II they are rs near to his age as they
conveniently can be. They will dc
more to train him than the average
parents and almost as much as the
pest OF parents. The trouble Of
bringing up an extra boy or two will
pc more than justified by the extra
Ooyhood they will produce in each
one Of them.
An only child Is at a very serious
disadvantage. especially II he is q
boy. for a girl can stay in and be-
come companion Of her mother, but
a boy has fermentation going on In
side him that he must have some
help with, or the house will become
too small for him. unless he happens
TO be not boy, but only sissy Of
the male variety.
The only boy" fs apt to be spoiled.
His parents will concentrate all their
attention on him. instead OF distribut-
Ing It out to half dozen.
He grows up without that friction
between himself and other children,
which Is so necessary to enable a
child to find himself. He has no one
to quarrel with, and that is an ir.
remediable loss. He will have hard
time to learn his rights or the rights
OF others, all by himself, and will need
some very excellent parents. to repair
the deflclt. It must not be said that
the only child" Is foredoomed to
Failure. To be sure, from larger fam
dies most Of our great men and wom-
en- have come, and families with an
r'only child" have furnished more
than their ratio OF the useless and
criminal classes. and yet some only"
children have been great and good.
We are only taking averages and in
'dicating probabilities.
An older brother is simply indis-
pensable to the little boys happiness,
and the little brother is an impor-
itant part Of the older boys life. espe-
'ciRlly II their ages are close togeth-

they are both to be pitied. The little

) One peculiar thing is that he gets
, the benefit Of the other children's pres
ence in the house, without being fully
aware OF It: he may even sometimes
think they are undesirable members
of the family. From the way they
often talk We might imagine they re-
gard each other with deadly and in
durable hatred. The showers OF
verbal missiles they rain down on
each others heads surely portend life
long disaster to their friendship. But
the next moment It Is "clear shining
after rain" They are. again. conf
Dental allies against foes within and
without, whether the older, who fool.
lshly interfere, or another child that
dares to taunt them. Disagreements
and quarrels they do not regard as In
compatible with friendship or good
manners. It is not the quarreling
that is always wrong. The noise may
be uncomfortable and require suppress

Discord seems unavoidable, and
there come two very valuable COM
pensatlons. One is tina: they know
how to end their troubles without In.
jury, except to the ears and fears Of
the innocent bystander. Nature at
tends to 1t. Interference with their
logomachy is usually failure, and
brings only artificial results.
The other compensation is that the
children are training each other, even
when discordant, provided the dis
cords are only occasional. They are
getting experience in applying the
principles they have been taught; and
they usually succeed. to the satisfac-
ton of both Affirmative and negative,
plaintiff and defendant, especially, II
the principles taught have been illu-
minated in the practices Of their par
ents. These are contests in skill. and
wit and strength that augment
those qualities, for through such
things. each child learns. by
experience, where his rights end
and the rights of others begin;
he learns self-control and altruism;
learns how to take defeat without
whining or tale bearing; learns
how to meet outside children and take
care OF himself, while respecting their
rights. In a family OF several, no
child can be boss or get all he wants
or have his own way, as in the lone
child" family.
