Then, as if actually afraid of what he might be going to say next, Neal fled. As the closing door punctu ated his words I turned to my hus band with a happy laugh: "You two!" I cried —'regular men! There's Neal just dying to tell you again that your example has made a man of him and that he'll never be able to thank you enough—and in stead he shoots a few gruff sen tences at you. I'd say it for him. but my heart's so full I can't fish out the right words." "Oh, that's all right," broke in Jim uneasily, "I Just helped the kid find himself. It didn't do to let him think of himself as a slacker. I only slung a few words at him. That's nothing Anne. But, honey, what tickles me is that I'm going to be able to do something for Terry.' • Jim rose to test his ankle gin gerly. He winced with pain, but managed to grin and say that the old ribs weren't cracking under the strain at all—so, one Jajnes Hunter I Harrison would assuredly report for j work Monday. I So with a kiss on my boy's fore head, I left him to his work and I went about mine. I wanted to fling j myself into Jim's arms and engulf : him in a torrent of love and grati- I tude because of what he had done for Neal—but Jim wasn't in a mood | for heroics, so my emotions had to be stifled. During the morning Phoebe phoned, but there was no word from Virginia. The doctor's farewell visit and lunch punctuated our day.. In the early afternoon Evvy came breezing in with the announcement that Neal's remarks about sickness in the family had haunted her ever since the night before and so she had just been compelled to come | and see what she could do for us. j She greeted me with nonchalant ! indifference. She seemed to have | forgotten our quarrel and the oc i casions when she had phoned and j ignored me. I couldn't tell whether it meant serene enmity—or friend i ship too well established to be | broken lightly by a mere misunder : standing. Toward my Jim she was all sunshine —as bracing as an Octo ber day. There was no question of i her attitude toward him. "You poor lonesome boy!" she I cried. "Being sick is such a bore — if you'd only sent for me, Anne, I Bringing Up Father Copyright, 1918, International News Service - By MqManus ' M I$ 1 fAI I ' VfOULON'T II 1A \ A FEW VTEPS ) F1 Hff ' NIA44IE £ MACOf WE-NT OUT 1V?

Would he like to play checkers now.' I'd love a game of checkers, re turned Jim. "Quarter a corner— eh?" "Give us the checker-board, will you, Anne?" said Evvy with an air of cameradie. "Oh, Jim, Anne's shocked because I'm going to play for money!" "Nonsense, Evvy. Anne knows how games bore a fellow unless there's a little stake." "It isn't that," I. said, trying to persuade myself that Evvy's fond ness for Jim was merely an expres sion of old and loyal friendship; "but I haven't an idea where there is a checker-board." "Over in the carved chest," Evvy cried. "You don't mean to say Tom never showed you the secret com partment of that chest?" Whereupon Evvy ran across to the chest and lifted the lid. "Why, you never got your blue robe back from Tom! Aren't you friends with my big cousin any more? How mean! He was so fond of you Anne!" 1 felt a barb in each word and suddenly it seemed to me strange almost insulting—that Jim wasn't showing a shadow of jealousy. Yet so absorbed was I in my thoughts, that 1 didn't see what secret spring her lingers manipulated—but sud denly the seeming bottom of the chest lifted up and a narrow com partment was revealed. There — lying in a mass of papers and sealed packages was the game of checkers, i have a feeling that some day 1 will be sorry that I didn't notice the , spring that opened that secret com partment. . And even now I wish I had made a point of asking Evvy to show it to me. With an air of being completely at home, Evvy established herself and the checker game across from Jim, and then they settled down to moving those little red and black disks about, the board with com plete forgetfulness of my existence. Jim lost from the very beginning and the little pile of coins in front at Evvy was soon absurdly large. "Now I'll play .you double or quits," she cried eagerly. Jim agreed. It didn't seem to oc cur to them that for almost two hours I had been fussing about on i the edge of things, trying to busy | myself with sewing and prepara tions for tea. -Then just as they j were settling down to their cham ' pionship game, in came Sheldon to I take Evvy home. She looked up with a pout which changed to an amused twinkle as ; she made a suggestion that Sheldon I take me out for a breath of air. "That will give Anne a bit of an ! outing—and I'll wager it will, be i the very first she's had since our Jimmle took up home-life." i "Hine —like nothing better than to lure the beautiful bride away from 'the groom, for an hour or so," said j Sheldon amiably. All too readily for my happiness ' Jim seconded the idea. And so I had to go off and leave my hus- I band and Evvy cosily established in our little home —together. And per fectly contented about it. I began to wish that Jim might sometime be jealous—as I often was. I wondered if it was exactly ' in my power to make him Jealous. 5 ____________ i >! Making the Most. of Our Children By , Ray O. Beery, A. 8., M. A. President of Purents' Association ' Is lour Child Bocouiing an Autocrat? 1 have seen that autocratic gov. ernment is ijad for nations. It is , equally bad for homes. In fact, the desire on trffe part of selfish adults to rule others arbit , rarily, and on a large scale, s'arts with the childish habit of command ' ing others in the faini.y. Children early must be taught that they cannot expe:t evfcrything l'or i which they ask and that the atten tion they can command of others | j has certain limits. Of course, we • j want our children to have a squa-e i j deal but we do not want them ! unreasonable. ' Let us take a concrete case. A mother writes to me. | My three-year-old boy is docile ■ most of the time and sometimes he iiis so very wilful. For example, to ' | day, when I said, "Come on Max, . J you want to grow big and strong '; like the soldier boys, so let's fake ' a nap," he began to cry and said, "I don't want to take a nap." I en said, "would you like mother to sing?" He said he would, but I , hadn't sung more than two words when he announced, "I don't want you to sing. I want a drink. I had i just given him one but I got him another and set him hack in my lap. . Then he wanted to get into his, , and then he wanted me to rock him, but,as I had my dishes to i do, I said, "Look here, Max, mother . did rock you and you wanted to [ come to bed. Now you must try to go to sleep here like a soldier and I'll play a piece for you on the Edi ! son." He cried and cried and di " rectly 1 stopped the music and he . said, "I want to hear the music," etc. Your little son evidently is start j ing out to rule your home in regular ( autocratic style. p It is a mistake to try to reason with a child as young as yours about something you want hint to do. Of course, after he has consented to j do what you request, then there is no objection to making him feel { good by talking about how the sol . dier boys do. But it really iB better ( not to try to make an appeal by tell ing what the soldiers do and then , say, "So let us." This puts up to , him too much. He feels that if he i would rather not go to sleep he does not need to. i If you didn't care whether your child took a nap or not, it would be I all right to ask him whether he wanted to and if he didn't then say i no more about it. But you certainly have decided definitely that it is best ! for him to take a nap. Then, the na l i tural thing to do is to let him realize . J this by the use of the fewest words I possible.- Simply Insist upon this t, without the least suggestion to the , contrary. Children ure exceedingly r quick to detect the slightest sign of weakness. When your child started to cry : and said, "I don't want to take a I nap r " you should not have paid the least attention to his remark. To ask him if he wouldn't like for you to sing to him shows him that he can j work you. When he tells you to stop I and you stop, he delights in his in j creasing power and ability to com mand you. Children love this sort of attention. When a child asks for a drink aft er some time has passed since he drank, offer him a drink at once, but if he asks immediately after wards, you can be sure he simply wants needless attention. Never give him this kind. Just ignore requests that are unreasonable. When your boy wanted to get out of bed, it would have been better not to go to the trouble of explaining to him that you had just been rock ing him* All such explanation is unnecessary and unwise. Your ac tions always speak louder than words, therefore do not use many words. Let him understand quietly and very clearly that he is to stay in I bed. Never let your child influence you tov change a decision by crying or tulking. When you carry out the policy in regard to steeping, he may cry hard for a time or two, but don't make the mistuke of reward ing him in any way, and after he has taken his three or four good cries on consecutive duys, he will discon tinue it as naturally as can be. Play with this little fellow en thusiastically—get him to like .you. Then show hint clearly what you ex pect of him. He very soon will be under your control where he should I.OWURg PRICE OF PORKER* J Chicago Extensive changes In average prices on hogs at various livestock centers have been under taken by' the Un|ted tates Food Ad ministration's stabilisation and con trol committee.
