Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Beds are such convenient places to
stow away small, misbehaving children
that mothers first thought is TO say:
Nov, you bad boy, I'm going to put
you to bed and youll have TO stay there
until YOU are good She knows. willy
woman. that he is safe In bed, and, for
the moment, out from underfoot; she
likewise knows that enforced inactivity
is a real punishment to the active run
about child and so she has killed two
birds with one Stone-punished the
child and made herself comfortable for
the time being.
BY using a bed as jail or a means
of punishment is boomerang. Very
shortly, the thought OF bed is connected
entirely with unpleasantness. The child
hates 1t. When he is put into bed he
feels exactly the way he did when he
was tucked in that afternoon for break
ing mothers favorite pickle DISH He
howls at the sight of the bed, exactly
as he howls when deprived OF his free
dom, and then a whole new situation
arises. The child won't go to bed, day
or night, without screaming.
If the child has to be punisned, use
some other means of isolation than the
bed. Being made to sit in chair, or
Just told that he has to go upstairs
until he can be good, is quite enough
to send most children bowling upstairs
to return In five minutes with the
statement that they will be good. And
they do try. This punishment Is just
as effective as being put to bed, and
leaves no bad after-effect. Putting a
child to bed in the middle Of the day
as punishment and keeping him penned
up with nothing to do is an easy way
to train him in bad habits that are
far more serious than the original fault.
The idle child will amuse himself and
his method of amusement Is a serious
one.
The child who goes to bed willingly
has all his short life thought OF bed as
happy place, a real haven Of rest
and relaxation. He goes to bed when
he is tired. He Snuggles down in the
soft bed. and being a small bird or a
cuddly puppy for the moment helps the
illusion of smuggling down happily and
being covered for the night. The rest
full atmosphere in the bedroom, the
mothers last chats with the child for
the day, the sense of intimacy de-
veloped between the two all help to
make this period OF the day which
the child comes to with pleasure.
Adults look forward to the restful-
ness of bed, but they deprive the child
of this pleasure by making bed jail,
instead of building up day after day q
bright, comfortable picture of the hap
piness of being tired, little child in
nice, soft, warm bed. And If he is
old enough to think forward one day
and realize that he will be rested so
that he may enjoy the next day to the
fullest degree, he has one more incen-
tive to go to bed willingly rather than
being dragged to~it screaming at the
top of his voice.

The Infra-R

In therapeutics we have the infra-red
rays, and from the endless stream of
inquiries receive from readers it would
seem that these mpresSive-indeed i'm
posing-rays are raising ructions In the
imagination of the layman.
Many a morning have I lain late in
the hope OF Matching some plan to make
this ray mystery clear to him who
reads. I haven't hit on a feasible plan
as yet, but no matter-it will come in
due time. You can't drive the Subcon-
Scious; you can only give 1t free rein.
Lying abed in the morning when old
fashioned folk are up, whether they're
doing anything worth doing or not, is,
to commune with the SubconScious.
There is a twilight zone there some
where just between sleep and full con-
seriousness where ideas are conceived.
OF course, most Of them remain forever
in the unknown. The trick is to cap
ture the germ of the idea and fetch it
out into the consciousness when you
wake up.
Listen to an authority, DR.. John Har-
vey Kellogg, who says in the American
Journal of Surgery:
90" = think it worth while to
call attention to the fact that special
apparatus for the application of infra-
red rays is not needed, for the reason
that these rays are always present in
abundant quantity, available
in any quantity desired, through such
commonly employed means of making
heat applications as the hot poultice,
hot-water bag, hot sandbags, heated
stones or bricks, and the shorter and
more penetrating infra-red rays and
luminous heat rays always present in
the radiation from arc and incandes-
cent lamps Of every sort. Even the

Little Jackets for Ensembles
BY MARY MARSHALL.

be worn with summary tulle frocks.
There are quilted jackets and cretonne
jackets, lame jackets and pique jackets,
cocktail jackets that never get a Whit

tea or after-dinner coffee. and smoking
Jackets that are never Sullied with the
scent of tobacco smoke.
In some of the stores you may find

find separate skirts. And these little
Jackets suggest all sorts of interesting
combinations and ensembles. There are
separate jackets of linen-red, or blue,
or green-that may be chosen to wear
with gingham frocks of white and COL
ored checks. There are jackets of cor
duroy or pique to be worn with cotton
or linen frocks, and jackets of finely
twilled silk that may be chosen to wear
with the skirt Duplicated crepe de chine.
If you are expert enough to make a
separate skirt, but haven't quite the

make a pleated skirt and scarf for
the jacket.

SUB ROSA
BY MIMI.
Is Love Blind?

Cupid Is supposed to be so cross-eyed
that, when he aims his arrow at one
heart, he hits another. That's why
we fall in love with the wrong people,
suppose. Or maybe Cupid has pink
eye, for love Is contagious, although
there are some men who don't catch 1t,
no matter how often they are exposed
to it. But they wouldn't catch any
thing.
The blindness of the god Of love
really means that those who are In love
see no faults in their beloved objects.
The mans eyes don't see the freckles
on the girls face, while she Is just as
blind to his bow legs.
I guess it's good thing that love is
nearSighted, for If people based their
affections upon the charms they think
they see In their various sweeties, they
wouldn't have much excuse for their
loves. !.
Love is nearsighted all right, and
color blind, too. For there are men who
can't see that the color which charms
them means only just so much outlay
at the corner drug store. These men
are color blind for fair.
But the blindness of love is made
up to the lover in the way that he can
see what doesn't exist Romeo loves
an imaginary Juliet, while Juliet is
daffy over a fake Romeo. He thinks
she's bathing beauty and she takes
him for q collar-ad model.
It looks to me as If loving meant to
Kid yourself into believing that the
Venus of Milo and the Apollo Belvedere
are the real folks whom we meet at a
dance. If a man loves, his girl becomes
the Venus with pair Of new arms.
Love is a kind of frame on which
ones imagination hangs all possible
virtues and charms. It's peg on which
q man Grapes his gay ties Of fancy and
then thinks that that's the actual Jane.
A girl may see in her mirror traits
of beauty which are absent from other
PEOPLES eyes, but her lovers heart is a
triple mirror which reflects whstever
his ardent fancy may suggest. Maybe
that's why marriage sometimes dlsii-
llisions one. It cracks the magic mir
ror Of beauty and love.
IT'S fortunate for men that girls Wllr
love are nearsighted and or-blind. II
we were not that way, the men weu',
never have q chance to play the gam
Of mixed doubles along with famous
lovers OF the past.
But here's hoping that Cupid win not

A Sermon for Today
For Sorrowing Parents.
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.

Text-"And they shall be mine, saith
the Lord Of hosts, In that day when ]
make up my jewels. Nal, ni17.
In Jewish home two children, twins,
died both on the same day. At the time
the father was away on business. Next
day he returned, unaware OF the grief
awaiting him. His wife met him at the
door quietly and calmly. not betraying
her sorrow. When he came in she said:
IT have had q strange visitor since
you went away"
"Who was it?" asked the husband
with no thought of her meaning.
Five years ago." answered the
mother, a friend lent me two beauti-
full jewels. Yesterday he came and
asked me to give them back to him
again. What shall I do?"
Were the jewels his?" asked the
father.
Eyes, they were his, and were only
lent to me-" the mother answered.
Well" said the father, IF they be-
long to him, he certainly has a right to
reclaim them If he wishes, and you can
not refuse"
Leading the husband into the chill
dren's room, the mother drew down the
sheet from their bed, and there lay the
little forms, white and beautiful as
marble.
"These are my Jewels" said the
mother. Five years ago God lent them
to me, and yesterday He came and
asked for them again. What shall we
do?"
The father bowed his head and said
with deep emotion:
THE will of God be done"
As read this story it seemed but
yesterday when God came for a precious
jewel He had lent to me. How it CON-
forted my hearth I pass 1t on, with the
hope that IL may comfort other fathers
and mothers who have been called upon
to give back to God jewels He had lent
them.

Income Statement.

Everybody's been doing it; and what
q strain and a cfore and a penance it
is! To find out how little or how much
income you have earned, and how little
is left, and wonder where it all went to-
Then the temptation to stretch those
exemptions and forget about few ex-
tras that gave you quite thrill when
they came, but pang to spoil 1t all by
sharing it with Uncle Sam, who is really
no relative of yours at all; and yet isn't
he?
However, it's only matter Of money:
and far more important statement is
that of your psychological income for
which the proper coin of the realm is
some form Of content. If you had to
make out a statement of the sources of
your psychological income for the year,
OF all that has helped you to live and
contributed to your content and made
life worth living, how would it read?
For many the first item would be the
satisfaction they got out of their job
their work life; not the wages, but the
satisfaction. Naturally If you got on.
and had a raise" or an advancement
or recognition of some sort, that
added money income may appear on
both statements. It helped you to feel
that you were making good.
Without 1t you might, however, have
the same income" feeling Of finding
adjustment and joy in your job; and
you might feel that q little of that In
come you should share with those less
fortunate. Pay your happiness income
tax in that way.
For many the first and greatest psy-
Geological income is that from their
love life; and that doesn't refer only to
engaged or young married couples by
any manner of means. It includes all
of that. but includes your total relations
of affection, to family and friends. It's
your social income: and without 1t
many, however well off," as we call
them. would be miserably of, indeed.

pany: and when you need sympathy
and friendly counsel and bit of cheer

should be places provided for the hats.
In the illustration is shown a hatrack
which is fastened to the inside of a
closet door at q height convenient for a
little girl to reach. When she Is much
taller these may be placed higher and
a shoe pocket installed so as to cover
up the holes made by the hatracks.
AS to the finish of these, you may
have your choice of finishes; or, better
yet, the little girl may have hers. for
these are the days when 'the child is
being encouraged to decide things for
itself. If desired, they may be left in
the nickel finish, but enamel or brush
ing lacquer will give them a lovely light
green, yellow, blue or rose surface.
OF course, the finish of the hatrack
should be in harmony with the rest Of
the closet accessories, such as coat
hangers, shoe trees, etc., which have
already been given colorful coats.

Washington, May 15.-Congress, like
water, has at last found its level. The
special session has reached the typi-
cal stage in which the senate and
house quarrel over their respective
perogatives and then unite as the
legislative branch to make trouble
for the executive division of the gov
eminent. The result is a chaotic con-
dition in the legislative grist mill
which will tax the ingenuity of the
administration and congressional lead
ers.
The Capital is a hot-bed of dis
putes regarding presidents. First,
it was the social status of the Vice
Presidents sister, that created a
furore. Now, the senate and house
are at odds on the question of power
to originate legislation dealing with
tariff and other revenue matters. The
vote of the senate to include the de-
benture plan in the agricultural re-
lief bill revived the problem of con-
stitutional rights.
The debenture proposal which the
senate passed in defiance of Mr.
Hoover, deals with revenue matter
which the house of representatives
insists must originate with them. Not
the least of the problems involved is
the desire of the house to uphold the
