Everyday Psychology
Detective Stories.
BIZ DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Ever since men began TO write stories
they have made their appeal TO those
hidden feelings that seem TO character
ize the human mind. Every successful
writer Is as such q literary psychol-
ogist.
Every detective story Ia rpsychologi-
csl excursion into the unconscious. the
author must first be o careful observer
Of what goes on there In order to pro-
duce good story.
During the last few years detective
stories have been unusually popular.
As usual, there's q reason.
It is found that the modern popular
demand for detective stories can be
laid ct the door of modern occupations.
It seems that the man who works at q
desk has small opportunity for his I'M
conscious urges. At any rate, the man
who works at some sedentary employ
ment Is the one who goes to the news.
stands month after month for the next
number of detective story magazines.
Beneath this fact lies q psychology
cal reason, which may best be de-
scribad as a power complex" Some
say this feeling Is Unborn. Along with
this feeling goes q desire to exercise 1t.
Very few readers Of detective fiction
really want to be detectives. They
merely want to try out their powers.
And so they resort to the best and
cheapest method. They identify them
selves with the detective in the story
and proceed to compare their wits with
his.

If you scold and shake and threaten

Many q school failure Is due to the
fatigue. A tired child cannot learn be-

customers. Many Of these persons are
such good and constant buyers that no
comment on the disastrous habit Of
handling the fruits could be considered
The misfortune, however, Of this
practice does not fall entirely on the
dealer. The purchaser comes IN Tor his
share. Since the dealer cannot eau
ton his customers, neither can he CUES
ton their Judgment of the fruit. When
the customer feels the fruit, and trusts
to his. or her, Judgment, and picks out
the fruit desired, 1t is the dealers
province to put 1t In containers and
sell it.
But let US suppose Gas it constantly
happens) that the pieces Of fruit
selected by the customer have been
felt SO many times that they become
soft. Ripeness by maturing has not
taken place, but softness by repeated
pressure The fruit is apt TO prove dis
appointing to the purchaser who decided
the grade is poor but does not realize
it is lack of Judgment In selecting the
before him, that is responsible.
Avoid taking out a piece Of fruit
that is far down in pile. Each piece
is slightly softened that bumps down
to fill in the hole made when another
is taken away. These places win form
bruises, and eventually become rotten
specks, spelling the fruit for purchasers
and deteriorating the stock Of the
fruiterer. If purchaser must have the
fruit low down in heap, ask the
fruiterer to take it out for you. He Is
experienced in handling fruit and will
be able to remove the piece without
harm.
It is wise when selecting ones own
fruit to Judge it by weight, color and
aroma Each species of fruit, and each
variety Of q species has its peculiar
color when mature. Unless you know
it. you cannot select that fruit expertly,
nor satisfactorily to y0lrself. After
buying you are inclined to question the
grade of the fruiterer's stock, not your
judgment
Citrus fruit and any In which juci-
ness is desirable element can be
Judged in part by its weight. Melons
when shaken and give back q faint
rattle are ripe. 1t Is the sound Of the
looSened seeds that Is heard. Do not
press a melon. 1t may be soft when
you do, and so mislead you, but this
softness may be the result Of others
pressing the fruit before you did. Then
this means nothing except poor ham
ding by the inexperienced.
There IS delicacy Of aroma that Is
present in ripe fruit. This gradually
increases from faint aroma to one
more decided as the fruit ripens. It
also decreases as the fruit gets over
ripe.

OUR CHILDREN
Bx ANGELO PArn1.


We do not think enough about guard
ing the children against fatigue Fa-
tigue Is at the root of many . childish
trouble, many school dtfnculty. A
tired child can do noting wen, not even
talk. Fatigue checks growth all along
the line.
II child whines and frets without
apparent cause 1t is time that he rest.
Ignore his walls and with every gentle
ness, yet with firm intention, strip him,
sponge him on, powder him, lay him
down to rest. II he does not want to
sleep give him Q picture book and tell
him he Is to amuse himself with it In
quiet until you come for him. Let that
time be no less than half an hour and
as much longer Is you see Is necessary.
An outburst of temper is usually
caused by WEAKNESS. You see a child's
organism Is so new. It Is still unsea-
soned, and in many spots, still unde-
veloped Children go full steam ahead
and without knowing it tire themselves
to the verge Of tears. That brings on
the temper tantrum., Quietly, gently
and most impersonally undress him,
sponge him of, dry hiIn we'll and pow
der him. A rest In bed, nap If pos
sible, will mend him and send him back
ready for business.
When a child stumbles over every
thing, when he gets things all wrong,
when he does not hear what you say the
