Again Terry smiled-a mans

turned from milling to locate
the keyhole and laid my hand or
Terry's arm. .
Terry, 1 know" I said. "I love
Betty, too. 1 only found it out last
night, but it's been trying to come
through to daylight for long
while"
Then got the door open, switch
ed on the lights, set out an ash tray,
cigarets and matches ana hurried
into my bedroom.
1 took a long time removing my
canteen cap and apron and hang
ing away my cape. When 1 felt I'd
given Terry time enough to adjust
himself to the disappointment of
finding nor word from Betty even
here at my home, went out to him.
He was striding up and down the
room, his hands clasped behind him,
his head low, but at the sound of
my approach he hurried to me al
most sayly.
Anne" he said. accepting the
new status my calling him Terry
had established. "Anne-you lust
said-you loved her."
He stumbled over the words a
bit, 1 took his hands as if he were
a little boy-as, indeed, what man
in trouble isn't?-and led him to
the big couch. 1 pushed him down
in the very contest corner and sank
into a little low chair, facing him.
Then, looking at him with the big
sister smile that no one had needed
since Neal left me, said, slowly
and quietly:
: Terry, what I said was that I
loved Betty, TOO.
Terry looked at me in the great

blocks and a variety OF other play
things could be placed on them.
Then you can make clear to him
in low voice and in a very inn
pressive way that he can take things
from his own stand but that he must
not take things from the bureau
table. Always designate the little
stand as his own little table.
So many persons make the mis-
take of refusing children in sharp
sort of way or in q way which an
tagonizes them. This is not neces-
sary at all. If parent refuses re-
quests in a very calm, quiet way
but in a way that suggests he means
business, the child very soon will
learn to take a refusal as final with
out ill-feeling.

There in the grim and secretive
apartment which Terry and Car
lotta Sturges and I were ransack-
ing for some clue to Betty, sud-
den inspiration came to me.
Betty had said Not tonight
soon; perhaps, Anne" When 1 beg
ged for the opportunity of standing
by her as she always did by me-
and l felt that was almost a prom
Use. 1 became certain that she had
written to mel would go home
and find a letter there.
Terry leaped at any suggestion
that meant action, moving toward
some clue in his search. Carlotta
volunteered to try to find what taxi
company Betty called just before
leaving.
That girls a brick" said Terry,
quietly, as we rode down town in
the elevated. Anthony Norreys had
used his very words.
Our taxi was waiting when we got
down to the street. We fairly leap
ed into the car and in almost COM
plete silence drove to my apart
ment.
When we arrived there 1 hurried
at once to get my mail.
There were three letters in the
Harrison box. l jerked them out.
One for me from Neal a typed en-
velope for Jim and an announce
ment from a milliner. That was all
no line from Betty.
1 tried to ignore the sudden sink
ing of my heart.
Come up and wait for Jim. He's
fond of Betty, too, and he'll tell us
what a pair of sillies we are to fuss
just because she goes off on some
affairs of her own and doesn't con-
suit u.s."
Yes, I'd like to see old Jim
mie," agreed Terry. as he stumbled
into the elevator after me.

to me with an announcement:
"Mistah Harrison, he phone.

I that certain things on the bureau
are so attractive to him that he
simply wants to get near them all
the time and handle them if given
a chance. II you have your boy so
that he will obey you at the mo-
ment you give your command, that
is about all that you can expect of
boy of his age. OF course, If a
proper method is used he also can
be taught that certain things are
forbidden to him altogether.
First, use the method of substi-
tutlon. This consists not only in
supplying material objects, which
| are permissible, but far more inn
portant, playing upon his imagina-
ton and getting him to play con-
tentedly. Encourage him to imi-
tate in a playful way the activities
of grown folks in your locality
which happen, particularly to i'm
press him. Enter enthusiastically
into his play-life. Use suggestion
freely.
Set him doing something like
shoveling sand into vessels with a
shovel, or anything that has ac-
tivity connected with it; and tell
him you will come back after a while
and see how he gets along. Then
make it a point TO visit him in his
play frequently to approve his "ac-
complishments' and suggest new
things.
There are books that might help
you, books such as Home Occupa-
tions for Little Children" by Kath-
crime Beebe.
If the bureau that has been caus-
ing so much' trouble happens to be
in room where the mother and
boy are obliged to be the most of
time, you will find it a good plan to
set a little stand near the forbidden
bureau, which the boy can have as
his very own. 1t would be we'll if
this little stand contained one or
two shelves besides the top, so that

POSLAM LIKES
BAD CASES Of
FIERY ECZEMA

When Poslam takes hold of viru-
lent and stubborn eczema, it soothes
and cools at once, putting a stop
to the terrific itching. On raw parts
of the skin it feels immeasureably
grateful. AS Poslam continues to
penetrate there develops just the
healing process needed. Contrast
the ease of healing with the sew
Gritty of the trouble. and Poslam's 8
work seems remarkable indeed. One
ounce of Poslam is worth a pound
of ointment less efficient.

DOES YOUR CHILD TOUCH FOR

-
OF course, your child wants to
get into things and examine them.
He wouldn't be a normal child If
he didn't.
Forbidden or not, they all look
alike to him. In fact, he simply
doesn't give thought to the matter
OF adult wishes, unless they are i'm
pressed upon his little mind IN the
proper way.
The trouble with far too much
OF our teaching is that it is hap
hazard. We attack habit, then
let 1t grow a little, attack it again
ana so on, instead of mapping out
beforehand a definite, worka BILE
plan and methodica1ly executing it.
we want our children to have ex-
perience; we want them to examine
OBJECTS and thus give needed exer-
clse and training to their senses.
But, at the same time, we can wise
ly insist upon their using objects
Tor experimentation which are both
harmless and non-destructible.
The following case was submitted
to us for solutions:
our a-half-year-o1d bov
has a great fondness for the objects
on certain bureau. Wife has gone
with him TO that bureau and fol-
lowed out the idea of letting him
handle them, then having him put
them back and finally to get his
mind away from them by stimulat-
ing his attention with other objects.
But this does not prevent him from
going right back to the same objects

wise doing in this case?"
Your wife, as you described IL
