It Is absurd to whip a child who Is overcome by anger. The best thing to do Is to let him alone and let his pas sion wear itself out. If he could be taken before the anger gets the upper hand of him be might be controlled.
 What the parent should do is to study the things which win arouse the child's anger and then avoid these things. It is the height of folly for a parent to excite anger in a child and then try to control 1t by punishment It is worse than folly; 1t is brutal and Is likely to ruin the child.-MOtber's Magazine.

''Bossy" Won't Stand To Be MIXED
By Mere Man.
(By United Press Association.)

Appleton, Wis, June 28.-A suffra-
gette cow is in the possession of Will
liam Rosweldt, young farmer near
this city. She votes for women every
day when milking time arrives and
Milk for Women" is her motto.
Rosweldt, when purchasing the cow,
was informed Of her dislike for men
mixers. His wife had never initiated
into the secrets of milking so he don
ned a Mother Hubbard and bonnet
when it came time to milk.
All went well until one day some
thing went wrong which caused Ros-
Weldt to use some language which the
cow didn't consider ladylike. Bessie
got wise to the deception and kicked
Rosweldt out of the party and stable.
A neighbor's girl does the milking
now.
