 Children cause their parents in cvitable limitations in personal tree. Gom and in the pursuit of pleasure They demand sacrifices in time, energy and money
 Only d really mature individual is in q position to meet tr.e demands of parenthood without feeling d certain amount of resentment to- ward the child who occasions them.
 Then, too, there are the antago- pisms which arise from the real or fancicd resemblance of d child to some relative with whom the parent has unpleasant associations.

The roof on the Smiling Pool wasn't a dream but this must be. Yes, sir, this certainly must be dream" He closed his eyes tight and kept them closed for a minute or two. Then he opened them and as before millions of little sparkles flashed and twinkled. Moreover the whole Great World had changed!

 And what is snow?" asked Stumpy
 Rain" replied Jerry. Tt is rain that Jack Frost has changed to what you see. By the time it reached the ground each little rain-drop had been changed to flake Of snow, and Jack Frost did it"

 DANGEROUS TOYS

In recent years q good deal Of attention has been paid 10 making suitable toys for children. This has been done because of the reali zation that play is the serious busi- ness of childhood, and that toys can contribute much 10 the mental an psychological development Of the child.
 Despite this however, there are still many unsafe toys on the mar l1et, and they are the cause of nu- merous accidents
 A long and thin metal horn may afford a good deal of amusement 10 a child but unless it has a wide shield near the mouthpiece it is q dangerous toy--for should the child fal. or should he, while running, strike the horn against something, 1t is liable to infict a severe inju3 on his teeth. tongue or throat.
 Many children go through the Big Injun" stage, where toma hawks and bows and arrows lend reality to an imagined existence. Unless, however, the bows are feeble and the arrows are blunt or rubber tipped, they are a menace to the child and his playmates.
 The same is true of the air rife. Numerous accidents, particularly in yolving the eye, are reported year ly as the result of this toy. It wee yell if all guns or toys that Gan throw projectiles were not allo"rd
 O children under A years Of age and then only if the child has q definite sense of responsibility and 4 Knowledge of the hazard involved in the toy.
 Sharp tools, such as scissors and knives, are also dangerous. Chill dren in the paper-doll stage can get d good deal of amusement out of colored papers, paste and scissors, but to be safe the scissors should be round pointed. Pocket-knivos should be permitted only to the older children. Here, too, the round pointed short blade is the safest.
