GLASS. “YES, THERE IS,” REPLIED THE BOY, POINTING HIS FINGER CERTAIN DIRECTION. “THERE IS A . Perhaps William James Stillman, the | American journalist and artist—better | known, perhaps, for his writing than for HNis painting—noted an unusual number of supernormal occurrences be- eause he was on the lookout for them. | He was, indeed, an experimenter in peychic matters, but his conclusion was that he had obtained no valid evidence through professional mediums. Of many happenings inspiring specu- lation which Mr. Stillman has ncted, none is more interesting than those in the case of Mrs. H. K. Brown. wife of the noted American sculptor, and John Ruskin, the English art ecritic and author. Of Mrs. Brown it should be said that she was a charming woman of remarkable intellectual powers. Not only Mr. Stillman, but William Cullen Bryant, the American poet, and others testifed that she possessed the ability to read thoughts. “She has recounted to me events in my past life unknown to any living person but myself,” Bryant told Still- man, “In her presence there was nothing in my past life beyond her perception,” s the comment of Stillman. He recounts, too, that “she answered readily any questions proposed in. the minds of her interlocutors, often even before they were completely formed.” Mrs. Brown claimed to have an inner Voice which fermed words stating con- ditions or situations which she did not herself know. Like Socrates, she was ::le to obey this daemon with confi- nce. A trivial incident reveals the man- ner in which this inner voice even spoke cantrary to her conscious observation. On a fishing trip in a wild part of New York ‘State, Mr. and Mrs. Brown had a breakdown while returning to the raflway station, and had to take their ‘wagon to a blacksmith for repair: ‘were still some distance from tion when Mrs. Brown said: lose our train.” “The inner voice spoke up: “No, the IN A ‘WOMAN THERE RAKING LEAVES” ‘They arrived at the station just as the train came in sight. Mr. Brown had such great belief in | his wife's “inner voice” that he always | followed it when its dictums related to himself. This seems to have shown wisdom, for he was regarded' as the ablest American sculptor of his day. Nothing which W. J. Stillman noted in reference to Mrs. Brown possosses the fascination of the adventure which his friend Ruskin reported to him while they were spending a Summer in Swit- zerland. It was while Ruskin had been so- journing in the Valley of Chamonix that his guide had told him of a ghost ah!rc that eould only be seen by chil- ren. According to the guide, the children in the Autumn often came upon a woman raking dead leaves. “The children say,” said the man, hat when the woman locks up at them they see only a skull instead of a face.” Ruskin's curiosity was piqued by this story. Time did not press. He was merely sketching and idiing. He re- solved to see if there could be any truth in it. He had a boy from a neighboring valley, who knew nothing of the story, brought to him, and, giving the child some plausible service to perform, wandered off with him to the scene of the reported ghostly visitations. “What a lonely place!” said Ruskin. “There is no one here but ourselves.” ‘es, there is,” replied the boy, point- ing his finger in a certain direction. “There is a woman there raking leaves.” “Let us go nearer.” suggested Ruskin. ‘They walked in the direction ‘he boy had pointed. But in a little while the youngster held back. “I don’t want to go nearer,” he said. “But why not?” “The woman looked up at us,” ex- plained the other, half afraid, half em- barassed. “She has no eyes in her head, only holes.” Ruskin went back to his lodgings. frain_is late; you will arrive with a minute to spare.” The Sidewalks pondering deeply.

Mrs. L. O. D. writes: “I heartily in- dorse your article on manners begin- ning, like charity, at home. “We maae it a definite practice even before the children could say ‘thank you' and ‘please’ to say it to them, and, more im- portant still, to each other. At times I felt shame-faced at this politeness. for it was not wholly natural to me, but my dear husband’s kindness and constant politeness has been an inspiration to me and the children. “Now our Billy, who is 3 years old. 7278 “thank you' and ‘please’ without ef- fort and it is a most gratifying experi- ence to hear him. I often hear him say to the baby, who is 18 months old, ‘How do, I am glad to see you' I am happy that I was convinced of the policy of teaching by example instead of precept. “It is always alarming to see one's self mirrored in one's children and to know thet one’s unconscious acts have becon:v definite patterns. It is hard«<o keep the nectessary stamina to bs always on a par with one’s children. When I see | mothers work to the point of fatigue and crossness on a relatively unimpor- tant task and then come wholly unpre- ared to solve a problem in discipline, wonder if ‘apple-ple’ order houses are worth while. “I read your column of mothers who say in effect, ‘I leave the housework in order to give more attention to Baby,’ and I wonder why more women do not ut the proper emphasis on tasks. lainly, the children come first, for in their rapid development each day is an_important milestone. ~What price well starched clothes if it means that there isn't a moment to teach the child some bit of knowledge!” 3 Answer—If we carry the spirit of the early portion of your interesting letter to its logical conclusion, then we must also imbue an orderly consciousness in the children by the example of neat ana orderly homes, It is true that many mothers are slaves to their househola. ‘They have a poor sense of relative vai- ues, but to leave the house in helter- skelter condition and the dishes uu- washed, 5o as to sit down and teach the child, as you express it, “a bit of knowledge,” does not fill me with en- thusiasm. If it is a tiny baby, then the mother may well forego some of the household slavery in order that he should be kept to a regular schedule, but even this can be accomplished without sacrifice of or- derliness. It resolves itself into better management, But we are talking of the child past 1 year, presumably, wno is quick to imitate, and who picks up his knowledge by seeing what we do and helping us to do it, rather than by being told what to do. So let us use the same methods as in teaching manners. If we show him that orderliness is 1m- portant and let him help us keep things orderly, he will learn more than if we lured him to our knees and tried w teach him. AUTUMN BY D. C. PEATTIE. The rains of Autumn work no miracles like the showers of Spring. No windflower blows when the storm is over, nor crocus on the lawn. Only the asters look more sodden, and any leaves that linger still upon the trees are likely to be brought down in the last wild rains. They fall upon the forest floor quite unremarked, but in the city streets they bring the foliage of elm and linden, maple and poplar, down to the sidewalks, to lie there in a wet and unbeautiful decay. The house- holder takes his broom and, with a rather surprising amount of difficulty, | he_sweeps them away. If he pauses for a little to look at the sidewalk after he has swept away the clinging, wet leaves, he may see somethi that will surprise him. He may find that on the sidewalk has been etched in sepia the tracery of the leaf—not only: its outline, perhaps, but sometimes also all the intricacies of the veins. Tiny bits of acids in the leaf have beem released by the rain, and have stained the sidewalk. In- cidentally, the.moral of this is that. though well decayed leaves enrich the garden, fresh leaves are acid and may sour the garden. It is not of this that I am always reminded, but of fossils, rather, for, in a fleeting and miniature way, the leaf of the season that is dead and will never come again endeavored to leave a visible impress of its day of glory. I always used to think of fossil botany as a subject fit only for fossil botanists —the dullest subject in the world. With time I have learned to retract that Jjudgment. There is a strange and ex- citing fascination in !.ryh" to plece to- gether the fossil record forests that vanished before the creeping glacler's icy breath—groves wherein, perhaps, sang birds that we shail never see. A fossil leaf was once a living thing, filmy and wav and green, and the STAR, WASHINGTO DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Daughter Who Has Been Left at Home Should Insist on Rest of Family Helping to Entertain Mother. { DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am the only daughter left at home out of a large | family and have my mother to care for. town and, of course, have few amusements, and the dull life I lead, with only my mother for company, is getting on my nerves and telling on my temper both at the office and at home. Now I do not want to hurt my mother's feelings in any way, but do you think it very selfish of me to go out with my friends occasionally and leave her alone? conscience-stricken that it spoils the good time I could have. T suppose it is the fate of the one left at nome to have to care for these things, but I do so envy my sisters with their happy homes and dear little kiddies and freedom to g0 about. SO LONELY. Answer:'I think the most foolish thing that any human being ever does is to enslave himself or herself to another. I do not believe that it is any one’s duty to sacrifice his or her own life to another. < In fact, I think that sacrifice is nearly always futile and that it oftener does harm than good. This is nearly always the case when children give up | everything for their parents. Nine times out of ten it would have been better, | even for the parents if they had gone on and Jived their own lives and carried out their own plans. ‘This will certainly happen in your particular case if you let your mother ‘monopolize you so that you cut all pleasure and amusements out of your life and me nothing but a dreary drudge. You will become so peevish and nervous that you will be hard to live with and most likely you will lose your job, because employers do not like to have irritable people who are hard to get along with around them. And you will end up in nervous prostration. Of course, your mother wants your companionship and she does not realize that she is being selfish because she dees not dream but that you are interested in hearing her twice-told tales as she is in hearing the fresh news that you bring in. Nor do the old, whose interest in the outside world is little, ever understand why young people want to go around and dance and do the things that they don't want to do. But in this matter you have to save yourself. So why not just tell your mother that you are getting stale and nervous spending all of your time at home and that you mus* have your two or three evenings out a week in order to keep you chirped up and peppy? And what about those sisters taking their turn in entertaining mother? If they live near, why don't you wish off one evening a week on them and tell Mary that she must come and sit with mother on Tuesday night and Sally on Thursday night and Susie on Saturday night. Of if they live mway, write and tell them that Mother is their mother just as much as she is your mother and that it is up to them to invite her for a nice long visit and give you a rest. ‘There is no reason why the youngest child should always be the family goat, but she generally is. e DOROTHY DIX. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I want to make money. Lots of it. Am 25 years of age, have a secretarial position with a good salary, but I have reached my limit financially in that capacity. Have entnertained the thought of a tearoom or restaurant, but do not know whether this proposition is remunerative or not. My experience has been confined to office work, but I feel that now is the time to plunge while I still possess good health and activity and have a striking appearance. Have you any suggestions to make in the matter? MISS F. D. H. Answer: One, and I want you to heed it. Before you invest yoglr savings in any business of your own get & job in that particular line and work up from we m!w!-: to the top so that you will know all the difficulties and just how meet them. Every door of opportunity in the commercial world is open to women now and there is just as good & chance for women to make fortunes as there is for men, but if they do they have to go about it just as men do and use the same tactics. They have to investigate the things in which they invest their money With & wary eye. They have to be cautious. They have. to be thorough. They have to learn to be good buyers and good collectors. And women seldom go into business this way. Tl’fiy Rlunge into a thing without knowing anything about it. Some glib talker tellsthem about the good points of an investment and they jump into it without ever finding out the bad points and so lose everything they have. It doesn't make any difference what sort of business you go into, it is the way you go into it that counts. Fortunes have been made out of tearooms and restaurants by women who knew how to cook and to cater and to buy and who picked out locations where there was a demand for such places of refreshment. And thousands upon thousands of other women have been made bankrupt by tearooms and restaurants because they knew nothing on' earth about how: to run one, and got on-the wrong street or on a country lane that nobody ever passed through. So, Miss F. D. H,, pick out ryour business first and serve an apprenticeship in it and learn where all the pitfalls are at somebody else’s expense, then' when you put your own money into a tearoom or a shop you will have at least a Chinaman'’s chance of making a success of it. Also bear in mind that a good salary is a mighty safe and comfortable thing to have and that if you will save systematically and let the interest com- pound, it makes a mighty reliable umbrella for a rainy day. Not everybody, and especially not every woman, Has the executive ability to run & business successfully. Nor does the desire to get rich quick insure your doln“t. Oftener it les to bankruptey.’ o 4 m' ey DOROTHY DIX. onyright, 1929. e BEAUTY CHATS Unusual Baths. ‘Would you benefit if you took cer- tain kinds of health and beauty baths?
