THE CHILD MIND

To most grown-ups the child mind is an enigma, and it is reasonable to sup pose that the grown-up mind is an enigma to the child. So that, if there be sudden twilight" for few hours, great changes would be apparent in the behavior of the one to the other.
 Take, for instance, meal time-a pe- riod when youth and maturity wage eternal warfare-Mary and Robbie would appreciate mothers dislike to messy, noise meals, and mother would realize in flash how tiresome and dull it is to sit quiet and be careful and clean and good right through all the courses.
 Naturally, compromise would be eff fected. Mary would only prop her spoon once, and not see how far she could lean over to pick it up, capsizing the chair and herself and knocking her glass of water over at one fell swoop. Robbie would tip his plate (probably), but not at such an acute angle that the tablecloth would be drenched with rhubarb juice. .... As for mother, in stead of losing herself in gloomy con- temptation of the years to pass be- fore she could have her meals in peace, she would chat companionably and limit considerably her number of "don'ts. ."- Westminster Gazette.

he could crawl cut for air at a place where the bank overhung the water and he couldn't be seen. There he licked his wounds and then whimpering soft ly made his way down the Laughing Brook toward the Big River, taking the greatest care to keep out of sight. He had lost all appetite for young king fishers.
 As for Rattles and Mrs. Rattles, they flew about excitedly watching for Billy and ready to give him more punish ment. At last when they were quite sure that he had left and there was no more danger they flew to q little tree near Peter, and then how their tongues did fly as they talked it all over. As for Peter, his heart fairly bounded with joy. The little kingfishers were safe after all. He, like Billy Mink, had forgotten all about Mrs. Rattles. He might have known that with babies there she would not be far away. As it happened, she was right in the nest with them, as Billy Mink had found out, to his sorrow.
 Peter watched Mir. and Mrs. Rattles for few minutes. Then he kicked up his heels and started for the dear Old Brier Patch to tell little Mrs. Peter all about it, and that it really is true that Rattles the Kingfisher lives in a hole in the ground.

Coquette Honors Are Accorded
 Cleopatra

TLEOPATRA, the last of the Ptolemaic Queens of Egypt, was
 the worlds greatest coquette, and the most fascinating female sovereign of antiquity. She captivated the worlds greatest conqueror, Julius Caesar, she entranced the heart and senses of Marc Anthony, and tried to beguile the wary, Augustus Octavian, the three greatest men of her day. With charms irresisti ble, she never hesitated to make full use of them, and consequently men were her slaves. She had many lovers, many of whom herself wooed with great ardor. When Antony suffered defeat and ruin at the battle of Actium, he blamed his reverses to Cleopatra having betrayed him. She, alarmed at his vehemence, fled to a splendid tomb she had pre- pared as a refuge near the Temple of Isis, and caused the report to be spread this, reproached himself for his cruel words, and throwing himself on his sword inflicted mortal wound, dying in Cleopatra's arms, after the Queen had had him conveyed to the tomb.
 Caesar Augustus Octavian, whose sister Antony had married, and who was llle oHe IeSpohoiple TUT AHloiy overthrow, decided to bring Cleopatra back to Rome a prisoner to grace his triumph.
 In order to avoid this and knowing that the great Augustus would be i'm mune against her wiles, she had a basket of figs brought to her under the leaves of which an ask was con cealed. She permitted this poisonous reptile to bite her and died shortly afterward. She was thirty-eight years old and had reigned as queen of Egypt twenty-two.

CHAPTER 226

-s7 CHATTER 22O
 PAVING her hat and coat in the
 upper hall, Marian Horton follow
 ed the physician into her fathers room. Obeying a motion of Dr. Hazen' s she stood out of range of the sick mans vision were he to open his eyes.
 But she could look at him, and she took in every detail of the change that had come to the beloved face.
 The rugged features were thin and sharp. The unnatural color that had once suffused the face was entirely gone. Except that the man breathed, he might have been dead. The daughter clenched her hands in an agony of grief. Then, as she was assailed by the recollection that she might have been with her father twenty-four hours ago, she looked about for the sister who had not summoned her.
 In the dim light of the hall she could discern Lois and Harold Sumner waiting outside the door to note the ef- feet of Marian's arrival upon the sick man. After one glance at them Marian again fixed her eyes on the figure on the bed
 Dr. Hagen laid a gentle hand on the sick mans forehead. James Horton opened his eyes, wide.
 ''Marian?" he asked inQuiringly. "Where is Marian?"
 The girl started forward implusively, but the doctor checked her while he spoke slowly and clearly.
 Marian has been away, Mir. Hor- ton"
 T know!" was the impatient inter- ruption.
 'Yes," the physician went on. "She was away, but she has come home, and is now here by you"
 Marian stepped quickly forward.
 II am right here, dear Daddy!" she said, her voice full of love-

 The exclamation was cry of mingled joy and longing. The thin arms were outstretched, and the girl sank into them, burying 5 her face. on her fathers shoulder.

Little Stories For Bedtime
(By THORNTON BURGESs)
Peter Rabbit Sees Things Happen

DETER. RABBIT sat on the bank
 of the Laughing Brook staring
 across at little hole near the top of the big sandbank opposite. Billy Mink had just vanished in that hole and Peter knew why. He knew that that hole was the entrance to the home of Rattles the Kingfisher, and he knew that somewhere back beyond that entrance was a nest, and in 1t were the babies that Billy Mink had entered that hole on the sandbank, that Billy meant to make dinner of them.
 Tears were in Peters eyes as he stared across at that little hole, for there was nothing he could do to save those babies. He didn't want to stay, and yet somehow he couldn't make up his mind to go. He knew just how dreadfully Rattles would feel when he returned and found that home empty, and it made his heart ache. So he sat staring at the hole in the bank across the Laughing Broo,; and wishing with all his might that there had been some way for him to save those baby king fishers.
 Suddenly he noticed sand began to trickle down from the edge of that hole: First there was little, then Lore and more. Strange noises reached him, smothered noises. There was an angry splitting sound and growls and little squeals of pain. No baby kingfishers ever made sounds like that. What could it mean? Peter crept to the very edge of the bank and stared across with eyes that looked as if trying to pop right out of his head. He didn't have long to wait More sand poured out of that hole and then the tail of Billy Mink followed by Billy's long slim body. Billy Mink was backing out of that hole, and he was doing it in hurry!
 Just then there was a sharp rattle from up the Laughing Brook. Rattles the Kingfisher was bringing home an other fish. He reached the sandbank just as Billy Mink was half way out of the hole. Dropping the little fish he had brought, Rattles shot down like fury and his sharp bill/struck Billy Mink leaving red mark where it had torn Billy's coat. Billy squealed and then he rolled over and down that steep sandbank. He didn't stop to come down gracefully. No, sir, he just rolled over and over any way to get to the water. Then rattling excitedly they hovered over the water waiting for Billy to show his head. But he didn't show it. He knew all to well what was waiting for him. He swain under water until

FINAL WEARS OF GENIUS.

The critics have always stumbled little over this final phase of supreme genius. They used to think that Michelangelo's last work was unfinish- ed. They still often think that what we must recognize in such a manifes- tatiOn is lassitude, failure of energy, a weakening grasp of brain or hand. I am not sure that there is not an ele- ment of truth in such criticism. Only let us not forget that it is the mark of high genius, less to display athletic ally Titan strength than to be able to use weakness to reach divine ends. That power, it may we'll seem to us, is supremely visible in the typical last phase of the highest genius. The ar tist has lost his early power of real istic grip, and with it lost also his early taste for such power. But he has lost it only to attain a wider and deeper and more symbolic mastery of the world. He no longer cares for the mere literal imagery of a scene he will leave so soon. But he cares more than he has ever before for it's essence, and he is conscious of at essence with delicacy of sensitive perception he never before possessed. He is no longer concerned with things; they are receding from his view. I~ he rises above the earth, like Elijah in his char tot of fire, he now sees tt only in the distance. Henceforth he no longer deals with things. It is the soul of things that he brings before us. That is why his later work faseinates us endlessly as, slowly, after many years, enlight- ened by the long course of our own experience, we begin at last to under stand what it means.-Havolock Ellis in the Forum.
