THOUGHT HIM DOWN AND OUT
Old Friends Meant Well, But Really
"Henry Brown" Was in No Need
of Assistance.

A wealthy and middle-aged business
mar who requests that his name De
not used In connection with this story,
likes to do his W automobile repair
ing. His garage is some distance from
his house, temporarily; that is, he Is
renting a garage about a block away
from home. And one Sunday morning
he put on his working clothes and went
over to do some tinkering on his ma
chine.
When he had finished putterins
about, he was pretty dirty. His clothes
were a mess, but that didn't make any
difference, for they were regular work
ing clothes. His hands were black
and he was sadly in need of a have.
So he hurried home to clean up. Ana
on the sidewalk, a few doors from
his home, he met a man whom he
hadn't seer for 20 years.
"Why, isn't this Henry Brown

"Yes, it is" answered u friend

CHILDISH FEARS VERY REAL.
Parents Are Apt to Underestimate
Their Effect on the Minds Of
the Little Ones.

The mother knew that her son had
been afraid Of the dark for years, but
had thought him long cured of 1t he
cause he always went up to bed at
night alone with his younger brother
SO she refused TO go upstairs with him
or let his brother go, as Peter was
amusing the company Mt that moment
Jack went out and was gone sucn q
long time that finally the mother was
alarmed and went to see what was the
matter. She found the hoy crouched
half way up the stairs, slowly creep
Ing up but plainly terrified. When
he saw her the lad started to cry con-
vulsively and said that something was
hiding ut the top OF the stairs. ending
bis statement with, "but you told me
20 go. mother, so ! am going" 1t was
the truest form Of bravery, because he
was slowly going right on up. although
almost scared to death.
Anything that might produce fear II
the child's mind should be avoided lik'
the plague, for II is just as disas
irons to the child's mentality rs SOM
dread disease might be TO his body.
Take, for instance, the practice o.
the part Of really kind-hearted par
ents Of throwing a child in the wnte
to teach him to swim. This sever
method may succeed In certain cases
but its usual effect is to teach tn
child not only to dread and fear tn
water for years, but also to lose HI
confidence and trust in his parents.
BE careful to keep fear from yot
children's minds.
