WOMAN’S PAGE. BEDTIME STORIE Jerry Muskrat Explains. Mistakes. no matter how you try, Are difficult to verify. —Peter Rabbit. The night Peter Rabbit was chased away from the Smiling Pool by Mrs. Muskrat he did not venture back again. Indeed, he was in doubt about going back the next night. He was fearful that Mrs. Muskrat might be hiding somewher to spring out at him. Cer- tainly she had been in a terrible temper when she chased him away from the Smiling Pool. But somehow Peter couldn’t keep away. He was so anxious to see Jerry Muskrat that he had to gb “THAT'S A FOOLISH QUESTION,” REPLIED JERRY. over there. He took care. however, to approach the Smiling Pool at a different point altogether. Peter had been sitting on the bank of the Smiling Pool quite a little while when at last he saw a silvery line mov- ing in the waters where the Black Shadows lay heaviest. He knew it was made by some one swimming. It might be Mr. or Mrs. Quack. It might be Jerry Muskrat. “T do hope it isn’t Mrs. Muskrat,” said Peter to himself, and kept his eyes fixed MENU FOR A DAY.

The flavor of the pie will also be greatly improved. Look ears Younger Sallow, Dingy Skin Made Lovely— Coarze Pores become Fine—Stops oily skin, removes blackheads.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €., THURSDAY, JUNE 26 19%. Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. ! The older and younger generation | both need to practice courtesy and re- | straint if they are to live together in harmony. When this situation is un- | avoidable and unalterable, it must be | managed tactfully or there is extreme | unhappiness on both sides. | My mail is filled with protests from | grandmothers who deplore the “gad- about” . proclivities of their young | daughters-in-law, they having been of ‘thr type that considered 24 hours' at- { tention to th® baby was the only atti- tude which spelled motherhood. Lives | are made miserable by spoken or un- spoken criticism of modern ideas and | methods of child care, in which the older generation often refuses to uphold the young mothers. It is a relief and a change to recelve a letter of the fol- lowing type, which many young mothers in a similar situation mignt imitate with benefit: “My husband and I live with his peo- ple and they are simply ‘foolish’ about | their new grandson,” Mrs. C. A. M. | writes. “But you know all young mothers are not pleasure-seekers and I am very consclentious about my baby out in the Smiling Pool" said, Peter. | 5, CORSCCRCIONs SOOUE My baly |law_ situation. “My husband is an only child and his mother was a martyr to the cause, thus making, as I have learned, a selfish and spoiled baby of him. He stayed up late, sucked his thumb, was jounced and rocked, in short had all the habits which I so much wanted to prevent in my baby. I determined that they should be. “I made it clear when I returned from the hcspital that as far as baby I have been gentle but firm ever since. “We got along beautifully, and I have a happy, healthy, unspoiled baby. He | is naturally good-natured, but I dol think the mutual understanding from the beginning and consistency on my part has helped, don't you? My baby eats and naps regularly, sleeps all night, and is & joy instead of a care. This is ideal when one is with elderly people who might otherwise be disturbed.” Consistency in sticking to one’s pro- gram in rearing children is one of the most vital features of its success. And your mother and father-in-law deserve ommendation for their restraint. It isn't easy to see young persons handling their precious grandson, and to keep tight rein on one’s own opinions. They are bound to feel that they have had more experience than you, and I think you should tell them frequently how much easier they are making it for you by their willingness to allow you to go your own way. This would be a kind- Iy appreciation for them and make your path even easier. People are too much inclined to say a lot when dis- pleased and nothing at all when Ppleased.

June 26, 1865.—Charles Faulkner, for- mer United States Minister to France, under the administration of President Buchanan, was pardoned today by Pres- ident Johnson, after he had qualified himself legally in accordance with the President's recent amnesty proclama- tion relating to persons who have taken part on the Southern side in the recent War Between the States. Mr. Faulkner's pardon was described at the White House as having been “gratuitously” extended by President Johnson, in accordance with a promise made to the wife of a diplomat by the late President Lincoln. Friends of President Johnson say his action in this instance speaks well for his opinion of Mr. Lincoin, as well as for “his own goodness of heart.” They declare that thus far every suggestion, as well as order, of the lamented President Lincoln has been sacredly carried into effect by his successor, President Johnson. President Johnson has caught a severe cold. He was so much indisposed today that he was unable to receive visitors. Col. Browning, his private secretary, who has been ill for several days, is still confined to his room. ‘The new steamship line on the route from Washington to Richmond went into operation on schedule time this morning, as predicted. The steamer Keyport left here at 7 o'clock with pas- sengers and freight for the former capl- tal of the Confederate States. For the present, until the rallroad from the Potomac River to Fredericks- burg, Va., is put in running order, pas- sengers will be landed at Belle Plain and will be taken from there by stage to Fredericksburg, and from there to Rich- mond by rail, reaching the latter city about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and thus saving about nine hours over any other line of travel between Washington and Richmond. Passengers do all their traveling in daylight. Tickets are now being sold at the Camden Station of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, in Baltimore, over this route. When the passengers reach Washington they are transferred by the city railroad to the steamboat wharf. For the present the Keyport will leave here daily at 7 o'clock. As soon as the railroad from the river to Fredericks- burg is in working order another steam- boat will be added and two trips will be made on this route every d: Harsh cleansers are so likely to scratch and mar.
