He needs the watchful tenderness of the mother and the knowl- edge that she always understanda him. But he also required a firm masculine hand on the reins of government. I say this fs° what' He Teeds. It i not always he | or, what he gets. I suppose, as fathers and mothers are 6nly frall human beings Iike the rest of kind, they must make grave errors in the training of thelr sons and dsughters. It s a pity that it fs the poor child who suffers from the experiments of dutiful and well-meaning parents.

And As all weather signs fall in a drouth, so all theorfes must fall in certain instances. Without. meaning to show shamelese | partiality towards my own sex, I must maintain that in the majority of cases the mother understands the small child better than does the father. Why shouldn’t she? It would be strange if sho did not. From birth she has the care of the little one, Bhe is with him for hours while the father Is with him for minutes, 8he sees him, when he is happy and When he is miserable, when he {8 naughty and when he s good. There s also w bond between' a mother and her child that does not exist between a father and his offspring.

She cannot help the nature that makes it impossible for her to banish her child trom her life. But in view of these facta it 1s foolish to state that the | average father loves his child with the | self-abandonment’ peculiar to & gonuine mother. Therefore It 18 hard for & man to un-| derstand a mother's attitude of rement: ment toward her husband's dealings with some of the shortcomings of her chil dren “That baby should be foroed to lie still and keep qulet!” he declares when roysed | in the. night by the walling of his year-| old son “But he Ia teething, dear,” minds him “Teething or no teathing, he ought to bo taught obedience” the man instats. “Why don’t you spank him and tell him the wife re- to e stiul? “Spank him!" she bursts forth In horri- fled accenits. ‘ipank him because he is suffering! Never!" “Very well, then T.go into another room where I can have some peace,” ths incensed husband bursts forth ‘Now you ean wspoll the ohid to your heart's content." And, with as much dignity as is com- patible with pajamas and slippered feet, the master of the domain repairs to the vacant spare bedroom to mpend the rest of the night In comfortable and welf- righteous slumbet, And the wife, as soon as the door closes behind him, snatohes the haby from the corib and olasps him to her breast, whis- ‘pering to him tearfully that he is her ' darling, her comfort. As this ia just what the youngater wanted her to do, he sinks Into & peace- fyl slumber upon her arm. And she, al- 16wing him to remain there through Wi romainder of the night, is fulfilling her husband's prediction that she will “‘spoil the child to her heart's content.” By WILLIAM F. KIRK.

In addition to being cheap appetising and filling, Minceq Neighbor has the further advantige of being so extremely easy and pleasant to maké that no woman, however much she may loathe other forms: of ocookery, bas ever been found who- objected to taking part'in making it. in fact, it-may be sald that the chief fndoor amusement of all ladies who' live in the subufbs is the prepara- tion of Minced Nelghbors. Men often attempt to assist their wives in concoeting this delectable dainty, but +|they generally bungie the job, and .get into trouble when they do It. It appears to be only women Who can give the right slight, and do the thing up brown and &et away with it To a degree Minced Neighbor is like pash. You can make it out of anything, but paturally the better the raw material, the more.highly flavored and spicy, the results. Therefore to make Minced Nelghbors, par excellence, select a nejgh- bor, either male or female, that appears to’you to be surrounded by an air of mys- tery. Of course, if you can find a nica Iumy neighbor With a dark brown past, you can make a dish fit to set befors of the thrills, amusement or mystery to|the connoisseurs of the church sewing be found In melodrama, or detective stories. This is .why the thrifty housewife picks up her family ang moves away from the city where there are no nelghbors, to the suburbs, where the supply is only too Nelghbor therefore becomes the wtaple of faod in the suburban house- hoid, .and is the plece de resistance of every meal. Unlike most dishes, the very finest, juciest and most highly flavored morsele of it, are saved for home con- sumption in the bosom of the famjly, but n —- Sorm ,- m @ - nlwn soclety. Unfortunately, however, this species is oxceedingly rare, and seldom to be found In the suburban market, so the housewife is reduced taking & near-wicked nefghbor whom she only surmises to do what it shouldn't do. But if one of these can be found that comes home late at hight to reost, or who has finer feathers than the other hens about her. it will Serve every purpoge, and when properly up mo one will know the differs ence between that and the dish made of the simen pure kind. In making minced neighbor, the princi- bul utepsil that is needed is & sharp g tongue, whetted to a rasor edge, and a pair of curfous and spying eyes. These, together with an ability to put twe and two together and make 444 out of them, are all the tools ubsolutely required, though a country club or & Browning circle makes an excellent chopping board | and facilitates the work Having selected your nelghbor, and, as has been said, any old kind of neighbor will do, and ascertained that your tongue I8 in good working order, begin by ‘tear- ing your subject limb from limb. Dissect each of its little pecullarities and idosyn- crasies, and then chep all of -its preju- dices, babits, faults and weaknesses into minded meat. Be careful that you pul- verize almost to a pulp all such parts as the spoillipg, of children, the jealousy of & husband, the way u man indulges his wife or Bolds out the. money on her, these are the very things that give the | highest flavor and impart the greatest relish to the dish. Minced . nelgbbor, like broiled lobster, is' much-better if it is prepared while it i3 alive. This is doubitiess unpleasant for the neighbor, but it ghould not, and does not, deter the cook from concocting this wothsome morsel for the delectation of herself and her friends. After’ the neighbor is thoroughly cut up, season it wilh two ounces of sur- mises and suspicions blended together in equal parts; one ounce of the essence of envy; & tablespoontul of the tabasco of spite, and & pinch of malice. Roast in a slow oven, and pour over it a gravy mada of the sauce of curosity before bringing it to the table, where every oné ‘Wwho partakes of it is sure to ask for more. Thisa dieh Is, bowever, particu- larly sustaining, as it s what ch!ldm call “chewy." ; Minced nelghbor is always nrvn fresh and hot, as it has the advantage of belng ble to be turned out at a minute's no- tice. Minced nelghbor is never cannsd.
