By preparing the older child for the advent of the new baby the wise mother forestalls his jealousy. To effectively dispose of any cause for jealousy she promotes the attitude that this new baby is to be his brother, some one to. love and some one to play with and help care for. Unlegs some preparatory step has been taken, the 'der child is very likely to show evidences of re- sentment against this interloper in the family. He tries to hurt the baby. He develops into a crybaby and a whiner who demands constant attention from his mother. ¢ The whole situation would improve if the ‘mother kept firmly in mind that the older child still needs the same kind of attentive affection which he had before the younger baby arrived. ‘The newcomer in the family turns the older one, even if only two years older, into a big boy who should be able to shift for himself. Mother’s care is centered on the baby. The eyes of mother and the whole family are fixed upon this new and interesting member. ‘What happens to the older child is so obvious and typical that we always wonder at the mothers who fail to un- derstand it. B We have a leaflet on “Jealousy” which is helpful in both preventing this state and dispelling it after its appear- ance. Any reader may obtain it by sending a self-addressed, stamped en- velope with each request to “Your Baby and Mine” department of this news- paper. With the usual bewilderment, Mrs. R. ‘W. describes jealousy in her older child: “I cannot understand my older boy. He is 3 and his brother is 18 months old. have, and when I explain and them away he cries. He will not share his toys with other children, and when his brother is playing quietly takes his from him.” ‘ou are not conscious of it, but you are displaying partiality toward the younger child. You are holding him up 28 a model and the older boy is as aware of it as I am. ‘When the older boy is requested to help you, do not let the younger one carry out the request. Walt patienfly and expectantly, repeating your request if necessary until the older one fulfills it. Next time ask’ the younger boy and let each have his turn. Your present course develops smugness in the younger —*“See how nicely he waits on mother?” iped.| —and bitter unhappiness and jealousy in the older. At 3 years you can ex- 't neither ess nor anything t curiosity about the possessions in the home. Our leaflets, “Qlunelin;;l:’:.d “The Touching and Curious " ‘help help you deal with these problems.

Forgive us our suspicions as we for- give those who are suspicious of us. It is rather pitiable, the frailty of our bellef in the essential goodness of humanity, when put to the test. Recently I had two tickets to a horse show and was unable to use them. Find- ing that none of my friends was able to use them on such short notice and unwilling to waste an opportunity which might afford someone pleasure, I went from door to door of a hotel in which I happened to be, endeavoring to give them away. I might have been a confidence man. a bill collector, or a quarantine officer, to judge from my reception. A pleasant-faced woman answered my first knock, but as I explained my mis- sion the smile faded from her face. Her husband appeared behind her, guardedly, and gave his wife a meaning look. “No, I don’t think I care to,” she replied stiffly—and shut the door. An efficient-looking girl was my, next encounter. sell them? L I explained again that T wished only to make a gift of the tickets to some one who could use them. “But how much are they?” she persisted. Finally she, too, withdrew. A middle-aged man answered my third knock. My explanation obviously embarrassed him. He made several lame excuses, meanwhile backing away from the outstretched tickets. At last he dismissed me with a kindly gesture— “I'm sorry I can’t do anything for you" —and vanished. After my sixth venture I gave up in despair. To some one behind those six doors I could have given an afternoon of pleasure—had I been able to plerce the wall of suspicion. A man who is something of a phi- losopher one day in the course of an explorative ramble found himself in that section of town where street auctioneers hold forth. On a sudden impulse he mounted a *“soap box” and extended a $5 gold plece above the heads of the crowd. “Five dollars for a dollar!” he shouted. “Five dollars for a dollar!” ‘There were no takers. While a certain amount of doubt and suspicion may be necessary in our modern life, would it not be better for all of us %o cultivate more confidence in our fellow men? (Copyright, 1930.)

HE WALKED OVER TO ADAM AND SHOOK HIS HAND, The eminent Dr. Johnson said of Charles James Fox: “He is a most extraordinary man; he has divided the kindgom with Caesar, so that it is a doubt whether the nation will be ruled by the scepter of George III or the tongue of Fox.” Now, though Fox was a fluent con- versationalist, he never talked freely in the presence of Dr. Johnson. It could not have been that he feared the old lion’s caunstic tongue, for he was quick at repartee himself. Johnson gives a more plausible reason. “Fox never talks in private company,” sald he, “not from any determination not to talk, but because a man who is used to the applause of the House of Commons has no wish for that of a private company.” It appears that in certain private company, however, Fox did talk and jest freely. Like his father, Lord Hol- land, he maintained a supreme non- chalance under all circumstances and would joke about events that other folks considered disasters. For instance, when he lost a fortune at cards he merely laughed. Lord Holland paid his bets cheerfully. In unguarded moments Fox's jests sometimes brought trouble. One night at Brookes’ he made a slurring remark about government powder, which, though it was plainly intended to be humorous, offended Mr. A He challepged Fox to a duel. ‘When they took their stations, pistols in hand, Fox presented a full front to his enemy, and his second, t. Fitz- “You must stand sideways.” T The* command was given “Fire!” Adam fired, but Fox did not. “You must fire,” the seconds said. “I'll be damned if I do,” sald Fox. He walked He heaped further coals on his op- ponent’s head. Adam’s bullet had hit him below the waist and somehow had been deflected so that it dropped into his breeches. “Adam,” sald Fox, “you would have killed me if it hadnt been government powder.” JOLLY POLLY A Lesson in English.
