MAKING the Child Beautiful.

Every mother desires that her child
shall be beautiful; but beauty on the
outside is born of health on the inside.
The same is true of beauty of DISPOSE
ton, or of what we are wont to term
goodness" in the child. 1t is exceed
ingly difficult for people of mature
years, possessed of some degree of
self-control. to be bright cheerful and
amiable with body suffering with i'll
health. How much more so for the
child.
Every child may not be endowed
with perfect symmetry of face and fig
ure, but the sunny disposition, the
clear complexion, the rosy cheeks, the
cleaning eye, the ruby lips, the pearly
teeth, the plump form, together with
perfect poise of body, which all may
cultivate, will lend even greater
charm.
Early beginnings count for much in
matters pertaining to health, as with
all other things connected with child
culture. Upon the right treatment of
the little babe during the first year
depends much of its subsequent we'll
being.-Mrs. q. e. Kellogg, in Good
Health.

and though when she was elected it
was expected thai she would handle
cases involving women and children,
so far her work has been about the
same as that of her four colleagues.
The first batch of criminals consigned
to her court comprised five men, three
of them accused of burglary.

as stenographer in lawyers Office.
Within a few months she began to

Celtic RevIvaI-

The so-called Celtic revival is prac
tically the attempt to revive" and
keep alive the Irish Language. Irish
Is the classic Celtic language, and we
are better supplied with linguistic ma
terial for its study than is the case
with any other Celtic dialect. The his
tory Of the language goes back 1900
years. The Gaelic league, for the
study and revival of Irish, was found
ed in 1893. 1t publishes a weekly
journal, the Flaming Sword, and a
monthly, the Gaelic Journal In 1898
a festival was held on the same lines
as the Welsh Eisteddfod, called the
Oireachtas, and was very successful,
SO that it has been held every year
since. Most of tAe counties in Ire
land also have their local Gaelic fes-
rivals each year. The library output
of the movement has been tremen-
dous, but the language itself is very
difficult in spelling and phonetics.
