When you say you resent something some one says or does, what do you mean? Sift any resentment down to its last analysis and you may be able to dis- cover that what you are really resent- ing is one of your own painful remem- brances. In other words, the some- thing that you think vou are resenting is one of your own mental sparks—a shadowy ghost of an old mental tor- ture which you thought you had suc- cessfully ‘lald away in your psychologi- cal archive of painful experiences. So much for the real resentments which actually do stir one's emotions. ‘There is a fancied sort of resentment, which we all employ now and then for the sake of keeping our real selves hidden from public view. Many a per- son will act as if he were resenting something just in order to appear holy, or elegant, or cultured, or whatever it is he would like to spread on to save the surface. Such resentments are, of course, false. They might be called intellec- tualized emotions. They are tempo- rary, accidental, shallow. Mere pic- tures of the way we think we ought to appear in the eyes of others. Resentment then falls into two classes, the real or emotional kind and the false or intellectual kind. The kind is based on memories; the second on judgment, which is merely an as- sumed attitude, & response to an imag- inary situation. (Copyrisht, 1930 Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

To find that their child is capable of sneering at the law and taking what does not belong to him is difficult for them to understand.

Sometimes they do not want to under- stand, becauss to mi» would be to make themselves culpable, too. Dishonesty in the very Lvunl child is commonplace.

If he is ever to have a sense of money values he must handle money himself—spend it, throw it away, save it—so that he vers what it is for and how to handle it. The only way to teach a child that is by experience with real money. ‘The really criminal dishonesty that mdy crop up at the adolescent period 1s an outcome of the sore spots of early childhood.

(Copyright, 1930 DOROTHY DIX. Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN Babies in Town. How much does it cost a mugla to have a baby if the couple resides in town? The question might be asked more frequently if folks were without oertain inhibitions. " Yet it is a ques- tion few married couples do not re- quire an answer to. Can you afford a baby is something you only can know after you have learned what a baby costs. Up to the age of 4, a recent survey of clgwblblu and their costs showed that expense amounts to some $630 per_year. In other words, if & husband earns $60 per week, it must be double that in ten years if he is to have a family o; m without lowering his standards - g : ‘There has been & rapid decline in the national birth rate, according to the Department of the Interior, due to this rather heavy cost of having a baby in the city. Formerly couples used to dare, on the assumption that “there is always enough for one more mouth,” but to- day it is stated that the cost of feed- ing & baby is equal to that of providing board for an adult. Those who wish to look further ahead | than 4 years of age are told that the annual expense of a child from 4 to 11 is not less than $680, and beyond that age to working age, or thereabouts, a child costs a couple not less than $880 per year. In other words, & couple must wait until hubby gets a $12 to $15 a week ralse before it can consider having a child, unless the husband’s salary ex- ceeded $60 per week to start with, These factors are important to consider by all women who do not wish to in- crease their families at the expense of happiness.

Care of Feet in Summer. When a young woman whose fore- head showed deep lines and whose mouth was set in an unbecoming line asked a beauty expert what to do about it she was told “Get yourself some comfortable shoes.” That may seem rather an indirect way to begin to eradicate facial wrinkles, but it is quite true that an uncomfort- able, tight shoe is pretty sure to cause wrinkles, so the advice was not nearly as singular as one might suppose. Feet which are uncomfortable will do even worse things than cause wrinkles, and any one who has trouble of this kind need not be told that cramped and aching feet can take away much of the Jjoy of living. To those so afflicted, Summertime is usually most trying. The first step toward foot comfort is to choose shoes which really fit. Be sure to get a shoe to give the toes some freedom. Heels shoe should fit snugly about the arch in order to give the proper support. But there are many women whose how perfectly shoes may fit, and it is special care. It is a good plm"s to change shoes and stockings several times a day if at all practicable, as & clean, cool pair of and hose will do much toward resting tired, aching feet. At least once a week the toe nails should be carefully manicured, the cuticle pushed back and the cold cream MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Nourishing Sweetmeat.
