the value of the right kind of faith.
Faith is and faith is potent No one
can deny it, nor the miracles 1t
works when given a chance.
This is true not only of faith of a
moral nature but of all fixed personal
belief. Some of the worst people have
the strongest faith. That's why bad
ness often succeeds while goodness
fails. In itself, faith implies no
beauty or strength. Only when it is
used for noble ends does it work for
rightness. And it's my personal be-
lief that most of the "autosuggestion
cures" do not work for noble ends,
but that they work for limited, per-
sonal ends and thereby counteract
the good they are supposed to do.
There is nothing essentially harm

give rise to its use. Every one wants
to be well and happy, and IL you will
regard such slogans merely as &C
cessories to mental grooming and
give them the secondary place in
your program which. you accord
toothbrushing and other exercises
they will probably help you to be
well and happy. But if you make a
creed of such things and dedicate
your strength and faith to such
purely personal therapeutics you're
going to lose out.

as long as a half hour, but they did
not fret. They probably reflected
that that was the penalty they paid
for not having bought the stamps
beforehand. Then along came two
men, obviously not of American
rearing. They sized UP the situa-,
tion and then. with an obsequious

window from the wrong side, hop

/lTF winter comes,' then spring is
on the way" Such is the
present slogan of the shops.
1t is a measure OF optimism
on the part OF those who sell clothes
tumery to be worn where the south
wind blows. The exhibition. may
dampen the dispositions of those who
are chained to snow and ice, to slush
and crowded streets, but there is
probably more stimulation than de-
preston caused by the cheerful
prophecy embodied in shop windows.
Once upon a time it was only the
fortunate few who could follow the
birds Henry Adams pointed out that
q northern winter was test of char
acter, and southerners might, add that
q southern summer was a test of
character.
But we moderns do not try to test
our characters either in the furnace
or the ice box if We have sufficient
idle pennies to permit us to get out
OF them. An amazing mass of people
follow the birds to an amazing de-
gree. We go wherever there is cold
weather in summer and h0t weather
in winter. Not only dozens. but thou
sands. of us shift our existence to
the center OF the sunshine. Therefore
the dressmakers design summer
clothes in December. the shops show
them in January. they are in full use
in February in the appointed spots.
The clothes worn this month will de-
termine what clothes are to be worn
by every one from May until October.
The French collections come over in
March and give some change to the
general outline. but as a rule the
French collection does not influence
in an emphatic measure until several
months after it's exhibition. This Is
because we are stocked up on other
styles. Our manufacturing of dress

The Best Beloved.

Every mother of small children
doubtless as many aunts and fathers
and grandfolk-has watched with
amused interest the partiality dis
played by the child Of two or three
or four or thereabouts for some one
particular doll or toy animal. to the
neglect Of some other animal or doll
usually OF greater splendor.
There is no sort Of animal that
our children lack in toy reproduc-
tions, realistic or grotesque. There
are cats and dogs, rabbits and camels,
lambs and monkeys and ducks. But
Of them all it is the bear, Teddy or
otherwise, that comes in for the most
usual alteration by child possessor.
1t Is the bedraggled bear baby that
is most usually cuddled close in baby
sleep, and If 1t has lost one eye and
singed one ear, IL the sawdust or ex-
celsior is oozing out-all the better.
John st. Lo. Strachey lightly COM
ments on this fondness of children
for bears in his autobiography. why
children delight in bears" he says.
"and have such firm belief that
they are kind. gentle and grand
fatherly animals is a piece Of psy-
chology which I have never been
able to fathom. AS to the existence
of the feeling. there can be no pos
sible doubt My grandchildren, bud
ding Montessorians though they be,
have the same absolute and unlimited
confidence in bears that / had at the
age of three"
And in your own experience. have
you ever known a. little child who
didn't wish a bear for a pet? A
four-year-old said the other day:
"Well, but polar bears are good pets.
Polar bears don't scratch and bite.
I'm going to have two polar bears
for pets and keep them in the gar
den."
Even after little children have seen
big bears in the zoo they love them.
We think OF the Russian hunters who
used to have a custom OF apologizing
to their brother, the bear. before
they killed him. Perhaps. after all,
there is something in the bear that
appeals to more than babyhood as
loyable.
