So little Mary Louise Bobh was laden with all the gifts they were able to bring her—health, beautiful brown eyes, round red cheeks, dim- pled knees and—everything. And pretty soon mere man began to notice that this baby was favored of the gods, that she was worderfully beautiful, not only in face but in form, Bo it chanced that in the gathering places where mothers met to omng their babies and discuss their charms Mary Louise Bobb always won out And now to-day In her babylike hands she holds the awards of sixteen Prize MARIE LOVISE BODe. “*Q Tempora!

In the course of time little Mary Louise came to New York. Now she’ is frolicking around our big city, and who knows what new laurels are awaiting her in this city! When little Mary Loutse was asked whatever in the world did she eat to give her snch round rosy cheeks she replied: ‘ “Nothing.” To which Mother Bobb assented. “That's right," she sald. “Mary Louise eats very little. Milk is prac- tically her only diet—and has been. For her breakfast I give her bran and oatmeal in equal portions and six tuw prunes, Then at noon [ allow her a little bit more than this. But she Is never very hungry. As to candy, she likes that very much ana I give it to her moderately, The doctors—and Mary Louise has been under their guidance since she was born—agree that candy is good for the child who plays around all day. But she ts very funny about her candy. I only let her eat candy after lunch and she will ONLY eat it then, If she is given a plece of candy she saves it until after lunch, or else asks me if she may eat It at the time. She won't ask any one else." “But it Is to regular living that I attribute the general, good health of Mary Louise," Mrs. Bobb explained. “She 1s supposed to go to bed at 6.30 and’she DOES. That is the main thing in bringing up a child, Regu- jar hours.” Mary Louise just then decided that she was being neglected in conversa- tional lirles and chimed in: “I went up in an aeroplane the other day with the ‘Flying Parson.’ ” When asked if she wasn't afraid she scornfully puckered up her chubby nose and laughed: “No. Why should I be?” Mary Louise,-then, is not only hap- pily beautiful but beautifully happy PHOTO By WIFE STUSTS? genius performed!

ARGIE and her mother entered M their tiny three-room apart- ment with happy faces and plenty of color in their cheeks. That Sunday had been a very eventful one for them. Frank Spafford had showered his attentions upon both mother and daughter, and their spin tn his motor and dinner later at the quaint little roadhouse proved a high light, an oasis in their drab life. “Margie, I told you not to aim too high, not to have too many Ideals about a Prince Charming,"’ confessed little Mrs, Mindon,. ‘but I really bo- Neve this Frank Spafford is your prince. I am glad, after all, that you refused to run about with that necktie clerk whom Maisie wanted to bring here. Of course, it may just be that Mr. Spafford feels sorry for us and was trying to give us a little trip into the country, but when I saw you two so happy together I felt that he really cared for you." “Of course he cares for me,” laughed Mergie with a proud little toss of her head. “I don't think he will ask me to marry him for some time. He {s one of those men who are bound up in their work, and then, he is young; but he knows in his heart that 1 am his Ideal g.rl, just as he is my {deal man.” Monday, morning Margie took her place at the glove counter with re- newed Interest and the joy of spring and love in her veins, but one glance at Maisie told her that something was quite wrong with that usually optimistic young person. “You poor dear,” said Maisie, as she held out her hands to Margie. “Me? Why, what on earth are you sympathizing with me for?’ asked Margie, thoroughly astonished. “Haven't you seen this? Malsie drew forth a clipping, a small one, but one which sent the blood to Mar gie's face. It read: “It has been learned that J. D Whitting 1s to build a villa at Hunt- ington, L.

It is rumored that young Spafford !s engaged to Mr. Whitting's daughter, Lelia, and that the father |s giving the villa to the young couple as a wedding present."* “I didn't see the thing becaus: mother and I were not reading papers yesterday,” declared Margie in a cold queer little volce not at all like her own. “We were with Mr. Spafford yesterday in his machine going over the site down at Long Island upon which he is to build.” “The horrid, horrid traitor!" gasped Maisie. “How could he be so unkind to you, a working girl, as to think he could treat you so well one moment and then announce his en- gagement ton swell dame that very “But he doesn’t announce his en- gagement!" forcefully declared Mar- gle, who had ‘now regatned hér voice and refused to believe what she read “You will notice that the paper says “It is rumored.’ I can't believe It and 1 won't believeit, [hada ‘dream day’ yesterday. 1 was happier than ever before in my life.
