"Insensibly, from the day of
birth millions of mothers are still
teaching their daughters feminine
timidity and delicacy, a sense of
inferiority, dishonesty. teaching
them above all, always to SEEM
something rather than to BE a
real character or person. Nurses,
fathers and mothers of all classes,
almost without realizing it, adopt
an indulgent tone to their girl
babies and soften and pamper
them in mind and body. Middle
class parents encourage boys to
wait upon their sisters, and work.
ing people compel the girls to
wait upon the boys. Both atti-
tudes deny equality and give to
both sexes a sense that the value
of a girl lies in her womanhood,
and not in her individuality.
Think of the middle class ladies

exact every kind of service and
respect, particularly from men,
and who, as individuals, are
really SO worthless that they had
far better not have existed. But
they have learnt all the tricks

SECRETS OF
HEALTH

UoUR child naturally resists
i most OF your attempts to
correct or train it. That is simply
because it has impulses Of its
own that must not be suppressed,
but given sympathetic direction.
This resistance is called the
Esprit of negativlsm." In other
words. a normal child is liable to
be on the other side of almost
any question that you may ralss.
There is naturally in children a
restless resistance against all
traction that is exercised in too
obvious and in too peremptory
way. This resistance Is apt TO
find expression in all activities
Of a little child's life. 1t Is a
main cause of refusal of food and
of refused to get the bowels open
and of all the ills that follow
therefrom.
The nervous aversion to food
which so often afflicts the only
child of well.to-do parents finds
much of it's explanation in this
negativism. Coaxed. urged, en-
treated, forced to eat. day in and
day out, the mere sight or sound
of the preparation of food may
provoke a paroxysm of resistance.
Yet such a child will often get
down from his chair at table and
astonish his parents by scaVeng-
ing greedily for crumbs on the
floor.
In such a case an alteration In
the management may achieve the
happiest results. The mother
must hide from the child her
ardent desire that he should eat.
Food must be doled out with APP
parent reluctance. The child must
be made to feel that the one thing
on which his parents feel strongly
is that he must not have too
much. 1t is not a question OF
deceiving the child. The trouble
has originated in, and been kept
up by the too obvious disappoint-
ment and too insistent entreaty
OF the HIOJHSI. oAC AAuSb WI 49,

being, oVer-correct her own atti-
tude in order to restore the sensi-
tive child's position to the normal.
In the management OF these
difficult little people. wise, under
standing and considerate control
is of supreme Importance. Nor
can we doubt the immense value
of physical exercise, drill, dancing
and gymnastics. The general
lines of the body of one of these
children will nearly always ex-
press exhaustion and fatigue. The
posture is the reverse Of the alert
and well.braced stance Of the drill
ground. Under drill the more
solid virtues are developed-resis-
lance to fatigue, presence OF mind,
uuickness to obey, precision OF
movement and so forth.
The lax and toneless stance OF
the nervous child is in keeping
with his conspicuous deficiency in
all those valuable qualities. His
body is apt to be balanced rather
than held erect by muscular tone.
Hence the curves of the spine
are all exaggerated, and the
shoulders are pulled backwards
and the abdomen forY Fds.

in the way of legal rights but 1t

NNHE Free Bachelor is product

They grow. they flourish, they

The Washington times., 1928-04-11

In England, a bachelor is usually
a morose or pathetic creature, the
victim of a bad liver, a depleted
fortune, or a broken heart. On the
Continent he is a freak; and in the
Orient, he is an object OF scorn,
pity or suspicion.
But, in America, any bachelor Of
over tnirty-five is invariably
bachelor BY CHOICE? He has
fought hard, long and scien-
tifically to protect his freedom and
his single-blessedness and his
sacred bachelor hearth.
He is a martial ''Bolshevist"
red revolutionist' against feminine
autocracy and the tyranny of
what he calls the spoiled modern
woman"
He has looked cynicalIy on
while other men, gay, carefree
and debonair as himself, were
caught. blindfolded. backed into
the shafts and either broken to
double harness or hftched to the
domestic pillow. He is wary!
He knows only too well. that
the snaffle and the curb are
waiting for him; and he is sus-
picious Of apples, applesauce and
sugar.
