HERE’S A WAY FOR MOTHER TO CURE SON OF LAZINESS

Toil Him He Has to Wc"k or Starve !Vari !, ° ’ Also £ Thinks Many Children Are Disoi:?' From Parents’ Suggestion. By Martha Lee •We hear a great deal about the power of >,u;_ . *u these The most enthusiastic of its advocates declare we think riches sick or well, rich or poor and that if we don’t like con- , tions about us,- we can just set in and change 'em with our oughts.

Wasn't it Hamlet who said, "There nothing either good or had hut inking makes it so?” Anyway, hat their parents think about K in. what they say, and constantly .-ok to impress, all have tVemendous caring on the minds of their children. "I just can't do a thing with Johnnie,” many an unwise mother has told someone in Johnnie's presence. Can’t she? Johnnie wasn't entirely convinced of it before, but the more he hears of that sort of thing the more he's convinced he’s a perfect little devil and he tries to live up to it. Older folks aren't much different. Unconsciously, we all try to live up to what other people—especially those nearest and dearest —think of us. It’s easy to establish the inferiority complex in the minds of others, and it’s not so easy, but it’s possible to do just the opposite. Many a man has stepped from meinto success, from careless, HQwute ways into straight and honorable living because his wife was sure he could do so. and made him believe it. Many a man has declared that he achieved the. seeds of his success through his mother's unswerving faith in him. He Doesn’t Appreciate Dear Martha Lee: What can a person do with a laiy. no account boy, who is almost. 19 years old and lets his mother support him. even giving him money for cigarcts? This is my son. and he lets me zo out and work and he doesn't get up before 0 or 10 in the morning, and nothing that I cook pleases him. He doesn't seem to appreciate anything I do for him. when r fairly work my fingers to the bone and have to bring him up. Instead of being grateful to me. he talks awful mean. OVERWORKED MOTHER. I’m not surprised that he talks "awful mean" to you. Overworked

Mother. He does so because he knows, even if he doesn't reason it out, that you've done him a great injustice. You’ve taken his pins from under him by your mistaken, kindness and softness and you’ve helped decidedly to make him the loafer he is. It may be rather late, but, at least, it’s worth a try to put him on his own strong boy feet. Stop supporting him at once. You don't mention whether he's in school or not, but his late hour of rising would indicate that he is not. Tell him he'll have to find a. job or he'll have to go hungry. That will bring him to time. This will make him indignant and you'll probably feel that he'll hate you, but he'll be far more appreciative later if you force him into action now. For his sake, be firm. A ‘Scared Kind of F e eling’ Dear Martha, T.ep: I am in love with a Fount: man who is two years younger than myself. Miss Lf<*. 1 have had little love affairs before this, but none of them have been like this This one admires me, but I don t know whether he loves me or not This love I have for him is a seared kind of feeling and T am afraid to let go of myself because I am older than he is. Please tell me what to do T. K. If your fright at being in love wtih him comes solely from the fact that you are two years older. I think you can smother your fears with a clear conscience. Two years is not Important one way or the other. You’d better not "let go of yourself,” however, until you know the state of his feelings. It might place you in an embarrassing position.

Just when the moon was rising ' "high, and darkness spread across the sky, the Tinymites oil figured that they’s have to ride all night. It i didn’t seem that they could make the whaleback trip and stay awake, but there was nothing else to do since land was not in sigiit. And then a startling thing took place. The whale just seemed to stop its pace, and all the Tinies wondered what was due to happen next. Another spout of water ros and drenched the little fellows lothes. The actions of the monstci Ad the Tinies quite perplexed. The whale then took a sudden flop. Its great big head just seemed to drop and in the air its tail flew high and flapped around like mad. One 1 moment more and down it went. The Tinymites w*ere quickly sent a flying in the open. Such a thrill they’d never had. j The whale, of course, was out of i sight, and every little Tinymite was floundering in the water, trying to j reach their little boat. Alas, this ■ was their only hope. ’Twas well ! 1 that they’d hung to the rope that j pulled the boat along behind and kept the thing afloat. Wee Scoqty finally reached the raft, and as he climber aboard, lie laughed. The thrill had struck him unny and he couldn’t keep it in. And then he heard the others shout, "Hey, lend a hand and help us out. We're getting tired of swimming and it’s time you pull us in." So Scouty started paddling fast, ! and working hard until, at last, he had the Tinies in the boat, a kindly thing to do. "Thank goodness we are safe tonight,” said funny downy Tinymite. And then the bunch was Iso tired out, they slept the whole night through. (The Tinies sigiit a dirigible in the next story.) j (Copyright, 1927, NEA Service, Inc.)

Cherry is indicted .a degree murder. The news t lulai to her mother NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY , Stephen Churchill shrugged his massive shoulders skeptically. "Shoot!” “The man who murdered Uncle Ralph is a cripple, a man who walks on the toe of his left foot. His left leg is shorter than his right, or Is drawn up as the result of an operation on the knee, so that he cannot touch the ground-with his left heel. Like this?” And Bob rose from his chair, placed his right foot flat upon the rung, and, with the knee sharply crooked, rested only the toe of his

"I measured those footprints in the snow befpre they were obliterated by added layers of snow. Morehouse watched me measure them—he can verify what I say. Then I made footprints in the snow myself, and measured them, to have something to go by. I am a pretty tall man myself— six feet —and I wear a size nine shoe on a C last. Fairly narrow, you see,” and he thrust out a foot for the lawyer's inspection. "But these fotprints were made by a man who wore a size eleven shoe, on the narrowest last made. That Indicates that he had a very long and narrow foot. I've talked to a shoe dealer here —showed him these footprint measurements, too —and he gave me the dope on them. He says that a man wearing a long, narrow

shoe is almost invariably a very tall thin man. If he were fat, his foot would thicken, and he would wear a shoe both long and wide. That is not * inevitably the case, of course. We have all remarked on the oddity of thin legs supporting a short, heavy body. But the extreme length of this man’s foot, with the extreme narrowness of it, certainly points to only one conclusion—that the man who made these footprints is exceptionally tall—six feet two or three, probably—and thin. Very tall men are rarely fat, if you’ve noticed.” Churchill nodded. "I’ll check up on the detectives and policemen who were first on the scene of the crime.” “I’ve already done so. Morehouse was Interested,” Bob told him quickly. "There is not a man connected with the police department who wears an eleven A shoe!” "You may have something here,” Churchill agreed thoughtfully. “Any

'‘Yes!” Bob thrust a hand into a breast pocket of his coat and drew out the bit of stained, worn leather strap. ”1 found this under the window, bulled in the snow. "The cripple who murdered Uncle Ralph wears some sort of brace to ease the strain on his bad leg. Probably a knee brace.
