Babies are what poor women has, but rich ladles has Pomeranian dogs, which are more styllsher. Also when folks ride in automobiles they talA along their dog, but they leave their children at home., J wlh had been born a Pomeranian with a blue bow on my neck, but I never had no luck, noway. A baby looks red like a boiled lobater, hut it sound like the fog: horn on the steamer in a fog when you go to Boston. Babies has no hair, and no teeth, but they has lota of voice. Babies is a deceit ful nature, for they look small and veak. but they la. the strongest of all known animals, arid can wear out the biggest man when he tries to take care of one. Babies sleep In fthe day time, and wake up and holler ajrinigni. tir papa ay that the reason fir. Koosevelt likes babies is because the both the Big Noise.

Ilka -the papa's folk. Then there Is the third baby that everybody says, "what a. pity," and then there's the fourth baby that all the near relations and friends says la "out rageous," and that they dpn't blame tho papa, for taking to drink. t People who have four bablea are con sidered Queer, and nobody invites them to come to see them, for fear they wll bring the babies along. The funniest thing about babies. Is the way they make folks talk, and act up. When a grqwn-up sees, a baby he begins grinning and punches the poor little baby In its s)de, and says, "Beas It's Uty heart urns, does It googly-goo"1 And If the grown-up fs a woman she' kisses the baby 4,7S9,t21 times, and the baby, squalls every time. I don't blame the, baby. My mother says that there used to be a great many more babies than there are now, &nd she can remember when very family had six or seven. But my father says that was before the day of the automobile, and that nobody can afford to have a car and a baby too, and that you can take your choice between them, because it takes about the same amount of money to run them. And. my mother says, "well give me a runabout instead of the go-cart, besides, they wouldn't let us live in a desirable apart ment If we had a baby." This Is true, for" If you will look you I will see that those people who have 1)14 model machines have no ml babies. east atSark Gfrmue3&ol5rft slopes; when spring romance has unfolded from a timid bud to tho pasaionato flower; when brides aro 1 earing a lonely couple ono settled into tender, cosy amplitude, the other spare and gaunt under tho hand of years leaving them a tho sign post where the path she has walked with them suddenly splits in two and takes itself off orer the hills Ella By ELLA WJIEELEU WILCOX. Copyright, 19H, by the Star Company, Woman la supposed to be a love-craving and a love-giving creature, yet the woman who really loves In the full mean ing of the word Is aa rare as a whlto blackbird. The woman who marries for love, or who marries loving fully and absolutely, la one in one thousand of all the brides on earth. Vmen marry because they are (Rkpd; because they want a home or an establish ment, because they think It is time to bo settled; because they fear they may be splntere; be cause they like the man who proposes; because they think he will get on In the world; because he is a "good catch." ' But these reasons do not Include love. Love may Include them all, or it may exclude them all. The w6man who really loves Is to ut terly absorbed in the emotion that she does not stop to consider the advantages or disadvantages, the benefits or dangers of marrying her lover. She does not hold the man up to in spection to dissect or, analyze him. fiho wraps him about with a great shin ing mantle of love, and sees in him all the manly virtues of her Ideal, and sho is so persistently imaginative in her thoughts and feelings regarding him that she creates In him the very qualities of this ideal, and in the majority of cases causes these qualities to express them selves In the real man. This Invariably occurs with the lover of a woman who loves absolutely unless she has selected an Inanimate manikin. Instead of a man, as Ihe recipient of her t devotion. Iov is the creative power of the unl verse, and every woman who loves abso- lutely becomes a creator. , AH men are una wakened sods, and the Wheeler Wilcox on "Real woman who loves deeply enough brings out the the divine nature of the man she loves. , When a woman Joves a man she goes to the uttermost ends of the earth with him, or the desert places, and 'finds greater happiness than she could' find In places without him, There are some things which a woman who loves a man never does. fihe does not argue with him over trifles or dispute with him over rerlous things. She may discuss matters, but as soon as discussion becomes dispute she finds a way to change the topic, Cupid packs his bow and arrows and By ADA PATTERSON. Women have suffered by comparison. Not comparison with men, for they are maintaining a high average in that respect by the public rating than they did, hut with objects. They had been likened to flowers, and against this classification they have made no pro tests. One of their own sex has compared them trf animals. An ele gant Parislenne said that there are ani mal prototypes for every woman In the world and that every woman should accept hints In dressing from that foretype ot hers. There are rabbit women, she said, who should Imitate the demure manner and staid color and furry effects of the rab bit. Tha tiger woman should dress In a different style and the peacock woman Is Justified In her fondness for brilliant ef fects. And who has not heard another woman characterized as a "cat," the. characterize displaying feline qualities has dlieotered a resemblance In woman one of Its halves marked "To the Now Country" and tho other "The Lonoly Trail," and down ila arm that flown away to tho right goes tho littlo bride and her strangor-loyor, and down the other go tho wounded twain, with tears and smiles shining through.

( Mie noes not show pleasure ir she re ceives a compliment which reflocts upon him. If a tactless woman .or a designing man tells her she Is superior to her husband. A New Office for Women to cloths. There aro women who are like broadcloths, others like chiffon, and yet others are velvet women or cloth of gold women, according to their com mentator. Recently a young actress said sh saw In every woman a similarity. to a landscape, Come I announcing that some womon are like cement. A woman grows restive under that com parison, foment Is not a pretty nor an Inviting object aa we seo It, gray, semi fluid, commonplace, waiting to perform Us function In a new building. Hur roundfd by heaps of shavings and lath heaps, by small mountains of sand and nails In various stages of newness or of decomposition into rust, its appearance Is not attractive and Its outlook dull. Yet how neces5ary Is the cement. How weak a thing the house would be without It. The function of the cement la cohesion. It holds together objects that would oth erwise separate or would wear upon each other. Recall the women you know who perform that office In tho home, In busi ness or In society. One such woman I know is a mother. Her husband Is a tyrant of the old school, Ills family crest should be a man with his foot upon the neck of wo mankind. He believes that woman wax created to wait upon man and to serv him forever. ' They have a modern daugh ter, warm-hearted, high-spirited, mettle somo as a thoroughbred horse. Love" she resents It Instead of being flattered or pleased. Bite does not tell people how her hui hnnd neglects her or talk of his short comings In order to obtain sympathy. 8ho does not compare him with other men 'to h'a disparagement. However much a woman may flatter herself that she loves a man. she does nol love him If she is guilty qt any of there things, For love creates tact, kindness, sym pathy, unselfishness, good taste, wisdom and patience, as Its spirit guards and they always accompany t, wherecver It n ay be led. These two bricks would wear unon tph other continually and In the end might cruan eacn other, but for the cement woman. At her post between them she curbs the father's tyranny by gentle rea soning. Hhe appeals to the daughter "not to quarrel with your father for my sake," an appeal that never falls. With an em brace of the patient shoulders, a pat of the silvering hair, the girl always an swers; "Well, dear, for you. but father cer tainly Is trying, I don't know how you ever happened to marry him." The girl Is engsged to a msn of the new school, who regards women neither aa pretty toys nor as household drudges, but as able comrades on the march of life. They will get on together because they talk things over In tho temperate spirits of partners In business. They will spend their lives together because they are capable of taking the mutual view of considering Ihe good of each and of both. In their household "I" Is not the supreme. "We" rules. The little cement woman looks on and smiles. But her smile fades as she thinks of what might happen to those two bricks If left to themselves. To a dear friend she said In a rare burst of confidence over their sewing: "I believe they would grind each other to powder." "It Is more likely that Alicia would leave home," replied the friend.
