is a mothers aspirations for her chill

self she wants her children to be good.
Have you ever watched the express
sion on the face of a mother as she
looked down upon the babe on her
breast. particularly If that babe was
man child? In her face you see all love-
all tenderness, all hope. all ambition,
It is the look that artists have tried
to paint and that we call the Madonna
expression.
other people may see in the child
only an ugly. red-faced mite of hui
manity, with rudimentary features, and
no hair or eyebrows, and with about
as much indication OF intelligence in
the face as a cream cheese
But the mother sees the hands OF
Paderewski in the pudgy little fists. or
the brow Of a Webster in the bald head.
or the strength of a Jess Willard in the
feeble little legs Always she sees
great and good. She never
sees the weakling the derelict, the
tramp, the drunkard, or the THIEF that
the baby so often becomes. And that
is Gods mercy to mothers

her brief courtship and marriage as
novelists would have US believe Her
real romance begins when she holds

4 RE you one Of those foolish folks
~ who have a pet bugaDoo.. What
l. \ will people say?" Nothing can
handicap you more hopelessly than
paying too much attention to pubic
opinion BE sure you're right-and
then go ahead" is a much better motto
for the conduct of life.
good many people who have moth
ing better to do spend all their time
discussing what more energetic folk
are doingi And a cowardly fear or be
ing criticized by the people who really
would not dare criticize you If you mad
the courage Of your convictions, VIII
keep you from rising above their level
One of my favOrite aphorisms is this:
BE as independent as you like and
can afford to be. But If you are a
tail be a logical tail and don't try TO
wag the dog"
There is The gist OF keeping up ap-
pearances. Do the thing your circum-
stances justify you in doing; strive
toward the thing your ambitions make
you long for and work out your destiny
with the same appreciation of the fact
that you can't spend a hundred thou
sand dollars in advertising the merits
of what you sell If you have capital
stock of one thousand.
Don't let comment and criticism IN
fluence you unless it comes from peo-
pie whose opinion you honestly value
both because of their own worth and
of their knowledge OF the matter in
hand.
If you recognize the fact that your
duty in life lies in working to obtain
comforts for an invalid mother, don't
let lot of uniformed people persuade
you that youth must be served"
II you are in a way to make a splen-
did success in the business world don't
let people make you believe that your
