THE STAR—MONDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1912. WHERE DID YOU COME FROM, BABY DEAR? In the morning two little girls, with tousled brown hair and wondrous blue eyes, come softly creeping to mother’s room. “Sh-e-e, hush! Is bruddie awake?” “Yes, children, bruddie is awake and you may come in.” Gently they open a tiny crack in the door and peck in at the crib where lies the wonder of wonders, soberly counting the rosebuds in the wall paper overhead. “Where did you come from, baby dear?” The innocent children sincerely ask the question that the mages Oe have failed to answer, other, quoting the , answered; “Out of the Nowhere, into Here.” What infinite, holy love binds the hearts of little children! Baby braddie is a livirig fairy; his blinking moist eyes, his soft pink lips, his cute little nose tipped up at the end so saucily, his dimpled hands and twinkling rosy toes—they are the great- est of all the mysteries that appeal to little sisters at the ques- tion age. And when he laughs and mutters “goo-goo,” it is as if the heavens opened, revealing undreamed-of glory. “Dear little brother, we love you,” and the sisters pat the soft, pink cheek. Tomorrow the sisters will be women. They will know an- other love, a love so strong that it will carry them away’ from father’s home, mother's arms, sister's bed, brother's embrace. That will be right and in fulfillment of life’s first command, Then, when heaven smiles w them, after the lightning has flashed and the skies turned black for a few days, other wonders will come and the greatest of all loves will fill their hearts, And again the sisters will ask; “Where did you come from, baby dear?” HERE ARE LOTS OF WAYS PAID ADVERTISEMENT Caldwell is Candidate for Corporation Counsel Do you think that “when a public officer keeps faith with the people he is entitled to their far- ther consideration”? sel? public official? one quest Caldwell has prac who all the people, regardless of o merely promises a “square deal vewtigation?
