One Of the most curious things IN the
world is that when people arc going to
have n child Of their own they almost
invariably importune the stork TO
bring them a baby boy, yet il they are
going TO adopt child they nearly
always choose girl baby.
Orphan asylum officials tell you that
they have a never ending demand for
female infants, while scracely anybody
IL willing TO take as gift the male OF
the species. Yet in the family circle,
where peoples babies are wished on them
instead of their having a chance TO choose
the kind of one they want, boy babies
are universally regarded rs valuable
family asset, while girl babies are always
below par, and generally below M. A.
in public estimation.
OF course it il easy TO sec why boys
should be in demand in Europe where
there arc titles to be inherited, and great
names TO be pcrpctuated, and where q
dot has TO be thrown in. like chrome

WHAT THE MAN SMITH THREAT

of the man who called himself smith,
