AN OLD SKULL

A human skull was lately found in
China's ancient stored ground, and
scientists looked on and said, THE
owner of that skulls been dead at least
million years, by jings; he's classed
with prehistoric things" No one can
now identify that poor. old lost and
nameless guy; no one can say what was
his trade! or whether he had made the
grade; when ones been dead a million
years no sort Of evidence appears by
which to reconstruct his life, or place
him in the mundane strife. The skulls
declared the greatest find In all the
story Of mankind. It differs from the
modern head in divers ways, so it is
said. It seems to show the owner was
man with heavy InuScled jaws with
which he might have bitten through a
good sized marrowbone or two. His
brow is low, to indicate a brain of no
impressive weight. He must have had a
bestial ARID hate to meet him any
where. But there is naught. in size or
shape, that is suggestive of an ape. The
skull Is human, every way, and shows
that on that distant day man Still was
man, as he is now. which is suggestive,
Wen allow. Always hoped to prove our
claim that upward from the apes we
came for that would show we had the
pep to struggle upward, step by step.
There's inspiration in the thought we
once were monkeys, rude, untaught, who
swung from branches by our tails and
filled the forest with our walls, that with
q higher goal in mind we left the
tribes behind, and took our
place at last as men, and went to Con-
gress or the pen. But that old skull
bone indicates that We were always hu-
man skates. WALT MASON.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Some of the most pathetic letters we
read are from young mothers who are
being torn this way and that. in an AT.
tempt to rear their children in the wav
doctors and child psychologists of to-
day are advising, yet still keep peace
with the usually disappearing older
generation.
From experience we have one word
of advice for the young mother. Don't
make the first mistake of turning the
baby over to grandmother just because
YOU want to run out and be free of
baby's care, and then demur when
grandmother Spoils the child, feeds him
wrongly, and, as will inevitably happen
sooner or later, turns this domineering,
spoiled child over to the mother say
it's your turn"
The first step is so easy to take.
Young mothers are so insure of their
own opinions. They are so ready and
willing to listen to their elders, and
when they find that things don't work
out. they alone must take all the COR
receive steps. The adults are willing
enough to spoil the child, but are never
willing to do the subsequent disagree
able work that will undo what they
have done.

parents to spoil their grandchildren.
Even if grandmother disciplined her
own children and showed them what
was what, she Is weak as water with
her grandchild. She is also sure to
feel that her daughter, who may be
no sterner than she was, is too harsh
with the child. She pitieS the baby
for being put to bed in a dark room
because she loves to cuddle and rock
him. She hates to have him cry when
he is refused food from the table, so
she sneaks him what she knows her
daughter would not give him. The two
generations are inevitably at cross
purposes. The grandmother has as her
ally all the female adult relatives
whether they have ever had children
| or not. The sterneSt disciplinarians
who haven't an ounce of sympathy for
the growing child are those who have
| never had child to deal with, but are
ready to tell the world what they would
do If that child were theirs.
A mother cannot shed her response
| bilities onto any ones shoulders. She
| can't ask help Of grandmother and then
expect that grandmother will stick to
all the details Of regular hours and
| feeding that the young mother knows
are so important. Only the two young
parents concerned have one word to
| say in the matter of discipline. Nc
| one else has the least right to inter-
| fere or even criticize.
There is no doubt that If the young
mother follows every ones advice

There are tricks-much Of the fascin-

women who hold their beauty long
past middle age is trickery-which you
and every other woman should learn.
There are tricks to make a Stodgy fg-
ure look slender. Some of this IS in
the sort of corset worn, a great prob
lem which either an expert corset mt
ter should solve, or the woman herself,
after q great deal of experiment. Cor
sets can be made to hold in the hips,
or to hold in a f1eshy abdomen, or to
do away with fat over the stomach.
They are made to straighten a back
that stands out, to cover hips only, or
to hold in the whole figure, including
the bust, but so cleverly with supports
and occasional bones and straps, that
defects in the figure are corrected and
one never suspects they were ever
there at all And the choice of colorS
helEs-dark colors, of course, and lines
that cut the figure at just the point
where its possible defect needs hiding.
