Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRI There is a-conviction in the minds of the parents that they alone are re- sponsible for the abilities their child possesses at different ages. They feel that they are to be commended when the child sits up; plays with his toys and creeps or walks. In two ways only are they to be held accountable, The right feeding will insure that these abilities will appear at the regu- 1ation time, physical development is the other fac- tor that the parent can furnish. But the forcing process which most par- ents feel is part of their y is de- cidedly not a good thing. Let the baby alone. Don’t prop him up. Don't force him to walk around when he doesn’t want to. Don't do anything except give his legs and arms perfect freedom, furnish with good food, and put him in places where he can get a chance to prac- tice new trick The baby who is put every day in a restricted place (small beds are that) and given one toy to play with cer. tainly cannot develop the ability to balance himself; and he won't have a very wide range of mental activity be- cause one toy has only limited possi- bilities This is by no means to sug: the parent give the child toys, because that only baby, but offer new snes bilities of the old ones hausted. At three months the will be able to balance his head put on his. stomach he will raise his head and peer about. He may even turn and roll (remember this, mothers. when you leave the baby alone on the bed).

The main thing is that he gets a chance to creep, as it gives his Jegs and ankies just the exercise the peed. He may now spend a good deal of his time drawing himself erect by the bars of his bed and wiggling about on his feet. Let him pull himself up but don’t be too eager to let him stand for a long time on his feet Walking can wait. At 12 months the average child stand on his feet and cither walk alone or with the help of chairs or hands. Fat children will walk later probably, because their muscles are not strong enovzh to hear up their Weight. It is wise not to force any these stages.

And love is the feeling that makes us prefer anothe | happiness and well-being hefore our own. It is the feeling that robs sacrifice of all its bitterness and makes us want to serve the one we love. 1 do not believe that we can manufacture love to order or we will. We can build affection and respect on the good qualities of others, but that has nothing on earth to do with love. he We may recognize that a girl is good and sweet, and domestic and intelligent, most. Or that a man is strong and honest, and clever | that he comes up to our every ideal. And yet neither one of them raise a single thrill or palpitation in our breasts or quicken our pulses by a heart heat. On the other hand, some girl or some man who hasn't a single one of the qualities that we consider desirable in a wife or husband may have some enchantment for us that makes us feel that life without him or her would be | cinders, ashes and dust. If we could make ourselves love at will, there would be no more unhappy iages and no more divorces, for we would all settle ouy affections on the sensible girls with a_comfortable little pot of money, or the worthy and instead of picking out the flappers and rounders we with them and that later on lead us into trouble, for knowing when you are really in love, that's easy. ou don’t need any one to help you diagnose your you've got it. long as you have any doubts on the subject, you are not in love.
