Mothers nipple was a litle fiat. I wonder how much the style of wearing tight bras sieres to give the stylish, boyish form had to do with it? My doctor says that in the Balkans the women wno have been under Turkish customs so long, bind their breasts with their very tight Zouave-like jackets and many of them have fattened and in verted nipples. So they have terrible times trying to nurse their babies, and many of them cannot, and the babies die in consequence.
 I tried a little longer-then quit. Looking up, I saw such despair m my mothers eyes, and such a tender, inn ploring look, that I made one more supreme effort, and succeeded. Oh gosh! l made up for lost time- Moth CT murmured some soft stuff over me. Isn't she wonderful-how I love her! I must say the nourishment was pret- ty thin, but it tasted good to me.
 It wasn't milk; colostrum, they call it, and we need it. Nature says so. It has even a greater per cent. of the growth vitamin than milk. and it also acts as a physic to carry away the contents of our intestines, the dark, tarry-looking material called mecon- ium. A midwife once told my doc tor that she gave a baby some physic to carry away the economy! And the doctor said it wasn't ecessary-that the co1ostrum was all that was neces- sary for economy or meconium or any thing.

 Miss PringIe laughed at these words She knew only too well the slogan of most Wellington mothers. Dear, guile less souls that they were with their hearts wrapped up in their children to the exclusion of the world without. She also realized what lay ahead for the ambitious Mrs. Cameron, as far as planning for the ordinary ca reer, matrimonial, for her new daugh- ter.
 You know, Miss Martha, it just doesn't seem decent for women folks to f1irt about and be pretty-pretty like the girls here do, for a few years only to marry and then shut the door, and shut themselves and their little do- mestic affairs safely in. There are so many wonderful things happening, so much to be done. that women can do.

''Tve just got to be doing something more'n being a butterfly and watch. ing other butterflies. They'll never make a doll-baby sort of girl of me.

I want to go out and be at liberty to rub elbows with the mob, feel the wind in my hair. to be in lonely places where I can think to it's soothing sound And want most of all to be happy. in my own way" she said wistfully.

Miss Pringle let the girl see pretty plainly that she liked her company, and that it was a decided relief to find some young person in Wellington who was Interested in the world at large. not only in the narrow local affairs of the hour.
 ! "It sure do seem strange to think that you are Truda's sister-blood- kin" she remarked one afternoon, when, after hard ride on her new horse. Ilona was sitting at the table in the rear room of the shop sippinS a cup of Miss Martha's delicious tea as she read the news from an English magazine, to which the enterprising owner of the shop subscribed.

How l should like to be on my way to all of those cities now If only I was my own mistress l would be, too, you can take it from me And I'd never stop going, Miss Martha, no sirree not until I'd been half way round the world! They do say that life in Berlin just now Is something marvellous, and dear, old London! I'd so love to meet that brilliant Rbecca West. She does write so as to fair make you ache to get out into the real world where things are happening. And someone who's been in London, told me a while ago that she is as beautiful as she is clever. Seems wonderful. doesn't it? Specially as mother always says that women writers are usually plain,opin- donated sort of people Mother has some very queer ideas, though. She
