BV 31 1 IS. lriHKL ;. Yor.;. Vhe development of self-reliance

is of vital importance in child train

ing, and one cannot ; e'1n too early to tea"h chi'dren to help themx-lves. Often, it is very much harder and may take more time to let them do something than do it oneself; but. time and effort are not wasted when they are thus spent. Th best way to help a child to become self-reliant i- in ive hini simple duties at lirst. addinsr more lifficult ones as he rrrows older. At an early a'-e. every baby will try to take off his shoes.

er in the day. I east a quick, frightened glar.ee at Lillian, then threw my shaking hands over my face in a

ruiue enon to snut away rrom me for a moment the knowledge which or.ee would have transported me to the seventh heavens of delight. Lillian's firm hands took mine away from my face, her kind eyes looked reproachfully at me. "This is no good business, Madge," she said firmly then she added "And it Isn't fair." I caught her thought, and it steadied ino, enabled me to put a firm rein upon myself. "I know I have been aetinc like an idiot. Lillian." I said contritely, "but you won't have to complain about me again. And please you'll understand I'd like to l.e alone for a little while." "Of course, child." she said, and left tho room immediately. And then I faced the future, the wonderful, bewildering, terrifying future. A little child was coming to Dicky and me! Mlxetl Joy and Doubt. How I had longed and prayed for this boon. And now that it was vouchsafed me there was more mis

ery tnan happiness in the thought or its granting. j For two miserable sordid facts I stared me in toe fare. !

Dicky did not want a child. He might hide his displeasure, although, knowing Dicky. I wasn't confident of that fact, but he would be sorely dis-

Ihem on again. After learning this, he will soon try to manage the rest of his clothing; before long, he will be able to dress and und re..-: himself with very little ht lp. Ht-lf-reliance and orderliness may be developed in a child at the Rime time, for the little one who can take out and put away his nwn toys, may play with them when ne will. If he has a place for everything .and keeps everything in its place, he can have

much more freedom for play, and will not have to wait for someone '

to come to his assistance. Often a child asks for help in doing something which he could do for himself If he only knew how. Too often a busy or impatient mother will wait upon her child to save time, and then the next time he wants the same help, he will

He did aa he was t e ld and in a few minutes came running to me with a beaming face saylrg, "I'm a bi? boy now; I can get a drink all by myself." .elf-reliance means contlden-e in oneself. If one can rely upon his own power?, he most certainly develops them. A child who is taught how to cross the street properly develops his hearing, seeing and reasoning powers. Of course, we as mothers, must frnido the child who Is s-lf-reliant in the right direction and the best

Washwomen are, as all of us, but human at the best. The cold and storms of winter bring them ills, for frequently their living conditions are not of the best. When sickness come to them, or many of their family, your washday troubles. ; If, therefore, your laundress be one of those who has been unable to ' a continue vour work, either through lack of inclination or force of circumstances, SEND IT TO THE LAUNDRY. "V In every emergency our FAMILY LAUNDRY SERVICE is at vour disposal.

Our Family Washing methods conserve as well as cleanse vour

clothes. There is no boiling, no rubbing, no scorching and no buttons broken or torn off.

Our way, the modern way, is one of sousing and rinsing in soft water and suds of pure, white soap. Right now, in midwinter, when outside drying is unsatisfactory at best, when the servant problem baffles the best household manager, call us up and we will instruct the driver to call for your family bundle and washday troubles. ar Davies' Laundry & Cleaning Co.
