The "No Toy" Theory.

There was woman, rather promi
nent socially, who had a pet theory on
which she always fell back. Her slo-
gan was sticks and stones for chill
dren." She believed, in effect, that
children could get along quite well
without any toys save sticks and
stones, that the fewer playthings they
had the better off they were. She ar
gued very convincingly. OF course
when you found out that she had no
chick or child of her own, but was,
moreover. n spinster, your faith in her
theory perhaps was somewhat shock
ed. The theory was right nevertheless.
as you doubtless are forced to admit
when you ponder on the happiness of
the children you know. Without a
question toys do not mean happiness.
If you are a believer in the no toy
theory the summer is the best time to
put it into practice. for in summer
there are many things which an out of
door loving child can find to take the
place of toys. Doubtless the child who
has only limited number of toys and
is therefore forced to amuse itself with
out them most of the time has better
chance to develop its reSourcefulneSs
and imagination and its power OF get
ting happiness and amusement wher-
ever it may be than the child who Is
surfeited with toys.

John Donnelly, the rather voluble
Democrat who represented Nergennes
in the last Legislature, believes in aim
ing high. lie has been securing a lot
Of endorsements for appointment as
United States consul general at Otta-
wa. He probably bases his belief that
lac can land the job on the fact that
it is now held down by Nermonter,
.Iohn G. Foster of Derby, who entered
the consular service as consul general
to Halifax back in the days Of the Nc
Knley administration. The consular
positions were formerly lucrative
through the fee system, but we under
stand that nearly all of the fees have
been abolished, and that the consuls
are now paid a straight salary. The
stipend for the berth at Ottawa at the
present time is $4,000 a year.

Summer CIothinq For Baby.

In summer the baby's clothing needs
especially to be light in weight and
loose fitting. says Good Heas.h lt
goes without saying that it should be
clean and sweet The young child
is exceedingly sensitive to change of
temperature. and his clothing should be
subject to the surrounding atmosphere.
In the chill of the morning he needs
warm garments. but swathed in han-
mel in the heat of the day he becomes
overheated and perspires to excess. 1t
takes time and thought to watch his
comfort in this matter, but it does
much toward insuring freedom from
disease.

OUR QUESTION BOX

Please tell me where I can get
book written by Mrs c. P. Shelley.
or maybe by B. Shelley, on the sub
ject of the curse of science, the title,
- Frankenstein. -
. Frankenstein, or the Molern
Prometheus, is the title of the book,
which is one of the most remarkable
in the English language, possessing a
morbid power far above others of its
class. Mary Wollstoncraft Shelley,
wife OF the poet, Percy Bysshe Shelley,
was the author. Frankenstein is a
student of physiology, who constructs
IA creature which he hopes will prove
immortal. His creation turns out to
be Il monster in whom evil is ever
present and virtue entirely lacking.
The monster pursues Frankenstein and
his family to the bitter end. ANY
bookseller can supply the work?

viii YOU kindly state in your CUES
tion Box the reason why the body of
the horse which was drowned near the
railroad bank this week hoated in the
river, while the body of person
drowned sinks to the bottom and does
not rise for some days!
Herbivorous animals, such as horse,
require larger stomach and intestines
for the digestive processes than do other
animals, and they contain more gas,
hence they float. This accounts for the
fact that a horse is an excellent nat
ural swimmer. Carnivorous animals
sink for the opposite reason. \ person
is part herbivorous and part carnivor-
Gus and it requires but very little to
keep person ahoat. The body OF a
person viii rise after enough gas has
formed to accomplish that result.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Profit Taking Failed to Weaken
PriCeS-Good Gains at Close.

Much speculation on the course the
market would pursue was in evidence
among traders prior TO the opening and
in the early trading yesterday. The
initial sales indicated a frmness which
prompted those on the long side 10 take
profits, and gradually prices sold OH
until around the noon hour, when trad
ing became quiet Sentiment devel-
oped a two-sided market. but in the
main there appeared to be very good
buying power. which absorbed oi1er-
ings and kept the tone firm, consider
ing the realizing INDUCED in by those
who were doubtful regarding the near
future trend.
During the early afternoon stocks
seemed to be somewhat heavy, and the
bears began to take courage and put
out short commitments. in the eX-
pectation that prices would take an
other sharp turn downward, but IN the
late afternoon there was a squirt or
bullish activity which caused an ad-
vance, and at the close the list pre-
sented an array of good gains. not
withstanding the pressure which had
been put on the market during the
day. The American list in London
was so irregular 1t offered little sup
port 10 this side, and aside from the
generally bitter feeling abroad the
New York stock market was dependent
on local sentiment and affairs here 10
supply a basis for cheerfulness.
Foreign news touching the Balkan
situation and the European financing
outlook carried an optimistic tone
which if continued should be beneficial
10 stock markets at home and abroad.
The news having a direct bearing on
Wall Street was scarce. Subjects Of
interest which called for discussion
during the day included the sudden
change in the money market and al
fairs in the railroad world, especially
the Hartman dissolution matter and
possible arrangements that may be
made for the distribution Of Union Pa
cifc's holdings Of Southern Paclnc
stock. The local money market not
only was easy as regards call loans
but there was a decided Improvement
in the freedom with which time money
was offered, although the market could
not be called active, as lending IN
situations continued to be more or less
conservative and there was no special
demand for accommodations.
Call rates were renewed at 2 per
