The Rev. Francis J. McCon-
nell, a bishop of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, is now in the
United States after a number of
visits to Mexico, and his opinion
OF affairs in that country will be
found of interest to his fellow
Americans who are anxious for
the restoration of peace and
prosperity in that nation. Bis
hop Mcconnell has visited Mexi-
60 many times in the interest of
the denomination in which he
hold so h gh place. Five of
these tours have been made since
February, 1913. and in this peri
cd he was twice in the country
denominated by Villa and three
times in Mexico City His views
are therefore of a man who
knows whereof he speaks.
He tells us that one great trou-
BILE with Mexico is that foreign
ers have gone there for individ.
ual profit and not for any inter
est in the country. Another
trouble is the land question

lites managed to get hold of huge
tracts from which the natives
were driven by force. In Mex

A>short time ago I read a charming
story called Sister Solly." 1t was about
a little girl who had been left alone IN
the world and was cared for by an old
woman, a distant relative. Then the old
woman died and the child was sent to a
distant city to live with a clergyman and
his wife. She talked a great deal about
her SISTER Solly'' and an expected visit
from her. The story gave an amusing
description Of the gossip of the town
about this unknown sister. and the hor-
ror Of the conscientious but rigid. min
ister's wife over what she considered :he
child's untruthfulness. Then the small
son of the family. by his sympathy with

Answers to Correspondents.

Mrs. G. w. 7. asks: DO you believe
in telling stories to children
If you mean untruths. assuredly no.
If tales. yes. by all means Every child
loves good stories. and there Is no bet
ter way to teach him many wholesome
truths. to say nothing OF giving him 4
taste for good literature, than by telling
all the wonderful tales with which our
folklore is enriched. If there is a story
hour within reach at your public library
or elsewhere. be sure to send your child
to that.
Mrs. n. V. B. asks: docs standing a
child on his legs when he is a baby make
him bowlegged? My siX-months-old boy
pulls himself up on his feet now and peo-
pie tell me not to permit it as it will
have that effect
1t is not wise to permit baby to stand
on his feet too soon, as the little legs are
not strong enough in the first months of
life to bear the weight of the body. But
the more frequent cause of bowlesged-
ness, as it is called. is malnutrition and
consequent weakness of the entire body.
If your baby Is pulling himself up he is
probably a strong child and the exercise
will strengthen his legs. Only do not
permit him to bear his weight on them
yet. He can pull up and sit right down.
which is probably what he will do until
he grows strong enough to stand.

the saints Of the middle ages, who were
gifted with marvellous precocity. We are
told that Lucretiasswas sent to school
at four. where wthin a very few days,
she learned to read and write. At six
she had made book of verses and pic
lures which her mother found by acci-
dent-a discovery which greatly grieved
the child author. At twelve she was IA
milar with all English poetry-so the
composed an address to Shakespeare
that showed real poetic merit. Much
that she wrote during this period she
destroyed. At 16 she was sent to Albany
to a boarding school. where her health
failed rapidly, and the following year
she died. But the two or three poems
that she left, of which Amir Khan" and

she made the prophetic statements that
