'0’0NTR.ARINESS" A PHASE IN CHILD'S GROWTH

Mint is often mistaken for per- lel'SelleSS in a small child is simp- ly his unwillingness to imitate any longer

At first, when he is toddling around after mother at her work, he will gleefully copy everything she does. He "telephones,“ calls people by the names she gives them and copy-cats her very tone of voice. Then gradualyy he loses thrill of it This is because he is getting into the constructive stage. and that means the development of imagination with a vengeance All is grist to his mill now, and he resent; any interference with invention. What he does is his own idea, right or wrong. He does not stop to think of that.

A wise mother will allow for it as much as possible. she will not become impatient when Jimmy won't copy the boat she has drawn, but instead, makes a cross and calls it a_ man. In this child's pride and stubborn newborn ego, he rather glorlfies in discarding suggestion.

some accidents in the home can be prevented easily — thus sav- lns the harassment of a. domestic accident and the pain of the cure. One such accident which in fairly frequent among women is the pain- ful hammering of a thumb when trying to hammer in a nail! Here is a scheme to prevent such a crushing possibility! Next time you are ready to do odd Jobs about the house which involve hammer- inz in of nails try sticking the nail through a piece of stout cardboard and holding it with this-—“mis-hits’ are then harmless, and your thumb remains whole!

most mistakes. great lovers who can set our h man or woman and be uithf E deatih. Ratgleog go are _ candy op. surroun so many we 3:; don't know which we like the best. or which to oose.

'- Also, time and place have so much to do With our emotions. A man can think himself in love wlth any prebty irl in a white dress on a moonlight night. A girl can see the hero of her (£18-m8 in any personable outh with a fresh shave and haircut and a. flower in his buttonhole. .1150, our tastes change as we grow older so that the cuties we adored at 20 revolt us as much at 40 as would the steady dlet 01 chocolate creams that we once craved.

Furthermore, our darned old hearts are too choosy. They love Arabella because she Ls beautiful. and Sara because she is intelligent, John bcause he is such a grand character, and Dick because he is such a fascinating helllon. And so there we are. Lacking glove detector, how are we to tell which love is going to last and which one is the real, true, blown-in-the-bottle one?

No wonder so many boys and girls can't. decide between the rival attractions of Mamie and Susie. or whether it is John or~'I‘oln Who captured their maiden fancies. No wonder that so many men and women discover after marriage that it was the men and women they didn't man‘! with whom they were really in love. instead of the ones they did marry.

Of course. science having left us flat in solving this problem. there is no absolutely infallible way in which youngsters can analyze their emo- tions and tell whether the thrills and chzllls and hectic fevers they ale experiencing indicate a fatal case of love sickness. or Just a slight attack oi romance that will pass in a few days.

There are. however. a few tests that any amateur can HPPIY 1:0 I-11° party of the other part that will go a long way toward giving him or her a. line on whether what he or she is experiencing is real love, or near love, or Just a temporary delucion. If. for instance. u think a homely girl is Miss America, or an ugly man better looking an Robert Taylor. or if you, see the ugly du as they really are and they still look better than any swans to you, that's love.

If you can see all of the fa.u.!ts of an individual; it you can see that a girl is high-tempered and rlaggy and bossy; if you can see that a boy 8 dictatorial and selfish and conceited. and not care just because they are Mary's or John's little ways, that's love.

If what. you feel for a. girl makes you want to~roll up your sleeves and go to work so that you can take care of her; if what you feel for a boy makes you willing to cook and wash and scrub for him and go with- out pretty clothes and s just to be with him, that’; love. If

Spoil the Child and You spoil the Adult

Dear Dorothy Dix—Why do mothers who rm: their children to be l-otters duck all resporlsibi-lity for their handiwork when the children are grown by blaming the child instead of themselves, and saying: "I dn't raise you that way?"
