BABY SQUALLS GOOD THINGS
cit e. Not HunEryi just Exercising
Its Lungs" Says Kansas
Professor,

Let the baby squat, by all means; Il
needs to cry and it must cry, and II you
stuff It with something to eat whenever it.
squalls you are a foolish parent. II should
veil at the top Of its voice for at least an
hour every day"
This came from w. A. McKeever pro-
fessor Of philosophy in the Kansas state
Agricultural college. in a talk to one OF his
classes composed principally of girls IN
the home economies course. In this course
the young women are taught everything
about homemaking. Before this class tnst
morning came the question Of the misun-
derstood baby. the problem before the
Worlds Mother congress. Prof. MoReever
has studied child life and preached his doc
trines of child training from Denver TO
Boston. The discussion at first was from
the standpoint of psychology but later Il
took another turn,
"Why is It," Prof McKeever continued
that mothers in general believe that when
a baby cries It wants food? Nearly every
mother thinks that, so when her baby cries
the first thing she does is to apply dose
of milk for the wall. 1t makes no differ-
ence whether baby has just dined or not
il IL cries 1t must be fed. II It cries again
il must be fed some more. Then perhaps
its head aches because II has been fed too
much, and It cries again. once more II Is
fed 1t is by this time literally stuffed
You see that's wrong, very wrong.
Half the time the baby cries not be-
cause It is hungry, but because It needs
axercise. Nature intended that II should
develop in that way. squalling Is baby's
calisthenics-the best kind OF exercise, too.
It is this crying-rhe real, hard crying,
properly known as squalling-that sets the
blood flowing lively through its body. Why.
a baby ought to squall an hour day l
mean, not an hour at once. So don't run
and stuff the baby with milk or take It UP
in your arms every time it cries. Let 1t
cry itself healthy"
However let it be known that Prof. NC
<eever has only three children. Two have
passed the squalling period and the third
is a particularly well behaved baby with
| fine respect for its father.

Railroad Man Who Places
His Principle Above Money

a man who will sacrifice his ambitions

being such a man. Else, why did he re-
fuse the presidency Of the Gould lines and
the magnificent salary that goes with the
position? The place was offered him, at the
very pleasant sum Of 100000 a year. Mr.
ElIotts salary with the Northern Pacific
is said to be $4,000 a year. Every rail-
road man Of insight, and with a knowledge
OF the business, knew that the offer was
not only bona fide, but was urgently in
sisted upon. One man whose word is never
questioned and whose fame and position
in the railway world is based on his hon
esty of purpose says it was refused as a
matter OF principle. That man is Howard
Elliott, and therefore he remains with the
Northern Pacific railway as its chief exc
cutive. and carries out his ideas Of the
principle. But be it said to his credit for
we all like a human man, Il took two days
of the hardest kind of "threshing out to
determine Mr. Elliott that his duty for a
time lay with the northwest.
Il am conservative man and do not like
to make changes, is the way Mr. Elliott
expressed himself last Wednesday in his
office in st. Paul. The development Of the
great northwest has for eighteen years
been under my own eyesight, and l have
modestly endeavored to assist in that
grand work. Eight years Of this time l
have been at the head of the Northern
Pacific: the remainder on the Burlington

work. 1 have many friends in the states

they are termed. The apple shows Of the

Mademoiselle," the ragpicker had
name though nobody in Lyons knew it
until She was found dead on the floor of
her garnet, dead OF starvation and old
age combined. Her name was Marguerite
Carrel. And to her name there hangs a
story. Seventy years ago. in 1870, when Mar
guerite was 90 the Carrels were among the
silk magnates of Lyons. The silk magustes
formed an aristocracy as proud i'm its own
way as the old aristoCracy of France mad
been before the revolution. Marguerite was
the Carrels only daughter. She was eN-
tremely beautiful, and before she was Is
had as many admirers as tho Lyons silk
merchants had grown-up sons, But she
would not listen to or look at any of them
And then one day a young Englishman
came to Lyons. His name has not survived.
He was the heir of an English silk firm
of importers which had business dealings
with the Duval firm, a rival Of the Carrols.
Between the families was a feud as bitter
as that between the Montagues and Ca
pulets.
Marguerite met the young English friend
of the Duval house one day and fell in
love with him, and he with her. The Eng
lishman was rich and did not care whether
Marguerite came to him with or without
dowry He went to old Carrel, her father,
and asked him for his daughters hand.
Old Carrel picked up the long cane Of
tortoise shell with the ivory crutch with
which he used to walk abroad. The young
man put his hands behind his back.

that, therefore, we owe you hospitality %
He broke the cane Of tortoise shell across
his knee
Now 60" he said, while I remember
still"
That night Marguerite Carrel and the
Englishman left Lyons in postchaise
Their idea was to make for Marseilles, and
from there to ship for England.
! But old Carrel got wind of their flight
and followed. Forty miles from Lyons ne
caught them up, and there, on the road
side, under Marguerite Carrots frightened
gaze, Carrel and the young Englishmau
shot one another dead.
| What happened after that to Marguerite
| Carrel nobody knows for certain. She
was not seen again till 1870, the year Of the
war. Then one day an old man who had
been helping to carry food and drink tc
patients in the hospital recognized in one
of the lay sister Marguerite Carrel-a
woman of 80 now-whom he had known anC
admired as young man. She was not
nun, but wore the dress of a religious
order and the Geneva cross. She did more

the diver to look for shell. If he is

FINALLY ENDED HAPPILY.

A romance was behind the mar
riage at Shephardstown, Va, the
other day of Charles H. Hoffman of
Dallas, Tex, and Mrs. Josephine V.
Freese of Shepardstown. Thirty
years ago Hoffman and Mrs. Freese,
then Miss Hyder, who lived at
Moorefeld, ". Va, were swccthearts.
Hoffman wrote to her from Shep-
ardstown, but Miss Hyder never re-
ceived the letters, and Hoffman got
no replies, which led each TO disbe-
lieve in the other. Hoffman settled
in Dallas, Tex, where he married.
Miss Hyder married Capt. Samuel
Freese. After many years the
couple learned that their letters had
been opened by a clerk in the Moor
field postoflice, who sought to break
the engagement and marry Miss Hy-
der himself. Hoffman's wife dying
and Captain Freese passing away a
few weeks ago, the couple, who were
separated 80 years ago, renewed the
old romance.

IT HAPPENED IN NEW YORK
Typical Incident Of the Injured Wor-
an and the Driver Of the
Truck.

In front Of a wholesale house in
Park place a large truck was backed
up to the curb. Two or three long
brc pipes and a shcaf of metal rods
projected from the tail of the veg
on almost halfway across the pave
ment at a height of some four feet
or so. A woman, evidently in a
great hurry, came along, failed TO
see The obstruction and dashed
straight into it. The metal bruised
her cheek badly and 1oosened tooth
or two. She fell to the sidewalk
and a dozen persons rushed to her
aid.
Nobody seemed to know what to
do. The woman was weeping hyster-
ically and two girls led her to the en-
trance of shop and tried to soothe
her. An indignant bystander walked
menacingly up to the, driver of the
truck. hlE|

An extraordinary accident oc-
CURED at Bagneux, near Molins,
France, recently, daring an electrical
storm. A team of three horses,
each drawinga cart full of sand, was
struck by lightning and all three
horses, with their loads, were hurled
into deep ravine some distance
away, where they lay in a mixed
heap. The strangest feature of the
case is that not a grain of sand was
spilled on the road, nor was there
any trace of the wheels of the heavy
carts leading from the spot where
they were struck. In fact, the whole
team-horses and loads-seems to
have been bodily lifted and shot into
the ravine. The carter escaped with
slight shock.

HER RULES FOR HAPPINESS
Woman Gives Three Simple Precepts
That Preserved Her Joyous
Outlook on life.

An older woman who always
seemed to be cheerful and happy was
once asked by young girl how she
retained her joyous outlook ON life.
81 have three simple rules" said
the woman. (which / have followed
since early youth. The first is this;
Commit something to memory every
day, something good. It needn't be
much; three or four words will do,
just a pretty bit Of a poem, or a
Bible verse.
"The second rule is: Look for
something pretty every day; and
don't skip a day, or it won't work.
"My third rule-now mind, don't
skip a day-Do something for some
body every dayi That is all there is
to it, dear"
These rules will work always and
everywhere, for women as well as for
girls. They are so plain any one can
carry them out if they have the will.
Take the first rule, for instance.
Not only will the habit of commit
ting some beautiful thing to memory
every day make of the mind valu-
able storehouse, but it will broaden
ones outlook ON life through contact
with the thoughts of others.
If one strives to see something
pretty every day the habit will soon
become so fixed that all of life will
seem to be seen through colored
glasses. And as for doing something
for some one every day-this is the
best of all. 1t is a rule which will
turn a farmhouse warm in the chill
of winter, and a tenement cool in the
heat of summer; it will touch hard
ened hearts with sympathy and make
all humanity glad.
