[his is one of the many respects in Which New York stores surpass the shopping arrangements ot other coun- tries. Like the resting-rooms, the writing-rooms and the many other similar conveniences of these great stores, the baby check-rooms are con- ducted for business reasons and to attract trade. On a crowéed afternoon, when more than twenty babies were | Checked, one baby in trying to grasp another baby’s ribbons upset its carriage. In its fall it toppled over another carriage, whose occupant was | leaning out to reach a bright-colored rattle. Before the attendant could | Intervene half a dozen babies and their carriages were in a crowing mass | on the floor. The attendant tried unsuccessfully to straighten them out, but it was not until the mothers returned from their shopping that the | babies were reassorted and every mother took home the baby she believed | was her own. | Suppose that a mistake was made and some baby was returned to the wrong mother, what would be the effect on the baby’s life ang morals? Would the change of environment be strong enough to re-| model the hereditary impulses or would each baby work out sub- stantially the same career as if there had been no mix-up? If without shifting mothers one boy baby would have become an architect and another a bricklayer, would the change in bringing up and educational opportunities reverse the babies’ future, or would the inherited type of brain triumph over any ordinary change in surroundings? Is the seal of destiny immovably stamped on a baby at birth, or are babies interchangeable? A mother’s answer might not coincide with the reply of a scientist. Every mother thinks no other child could replace her own. But in respect to knowledge of such things the instinct of a hen’s chicks is much more developed than of human babies. A dozen hens may cluck to a hundred ch and every chick will run not to the hen which laid the egg, but to the hen which gave the warmth of life to it when newly hatched. It makes no difference whether its stepmother was an incubator or a hen. In like mannzr a baby will sometimes cling to its nurse rather than to its mother. The babies wrongly assorted in the check-room would possibly have made no protest against the change. No two mothers raise babies alike. No two babies receive exactly the same food, treatment and bringing up. Attempts to rear babies by rule are not successful, as is proved by the high death-rate of mother- less babies even under the best conditions and with the best care of doctors and hired nurses. If a baby has not somewhere in its brain the makings of an in- ventor or a banker or a musician or a poet, would any change of mothers make possible what otherwise would not be? If the baby has the mental ability to lead, to inspire, to rise, would anything short of a crippling species akin to the Rockefellium is found in many waters and forms food for it.

AUD GONNE made the assertion the other day that “brainy” women should not marry. A masculine critie answering her dectares that the only way to ju of a woman's brain {s by her children, What is a brainy woman, anyhow? Accepting the Gonne doctrine she must be a mental and physical freak—any woman Is who does not marry when the right conditions themselves—while iecording to the standard of Miss Gonne's critic her the natural function in and the guinea hen her we present mined by her peer be ¢ bratns must which the bison superor. Men do not seem to realize that by their very insistence on the para- aising the census returns they reMgate themselves to a very incidental place in the No one would be 80 foolish as to assert that a man’s brains must be judged by the number and quality of his children. And yet if the main purpose of the world 1s the peopling of {t, and woman the appointed instrument of that purpose, how does the position of man differ from that of the male bee? Nature would not take into account what the poet wrought with-his pen, though he produced lyrics finer than those the stars sang together; or what the artist wrought with his brush, though he realized the Kipling de- sire to splash at a ten-mile canvas with brushes of comets’ hair. She would judge him solely by his children, as some men, mainly bachelors whom Nature would not recognize at all, deciare women must be judged. A { woman may be a great mother without ever having opened a book except to press flowers in it. And she may possess infinite cleverness of mind and yet not know enough to find the offending pin in the wailing baby’s gar- ments. But it is very seldom that she can be both at the same time. And Maud Gonne is right in saying that brainy women should not marry if they want to continue the mental attainments which won them the adjective. ‘All the enduring poems, dramas and pictures of the world have been as much the product of great loves as are the cherubs that more common- place unions summon from the Unknown.

One woman's cleverness, therefore, may be expressed in the chubby roundness of a ten-pound infant and another's in the beautifully-wrought sentences of a great book. And to affirm the cleverness of one it is not necessary to deny that of the other; siice, under different circumstances, one might have been the othe’ Machine that Records Every Vibration of a Far Distant Earthquake.
