BART'S FRIEND.
" Corns nd tee little Hal, Bart,"
u ged B-b. "Ve think be grows
i .ore i ke bis father every day."
A! babies look alike to me," laid
I jrt, uyinir to be very blase as he
I zeu iatD the cradle where the heir
t ihj botue of Hammersly was
l.nklr." aiid waving hia tiny bands.
"Ian ( be great? I didn't know bab
I i Wi.o i.ke iu.H," remarked Larry
'u a surprised tone. .
:iir-'r r.c' bad," I answered
Iuutll. "ibis baby Is a super-infant.
'llKre a.? no others like bim."
' How foolish of me," said Larry,
lifting his es to mine and blushing.
"Of course, 1 should have known
It."
"Quit youi k.du.ng." said Bart, and
shako hands with my sister, Alix.
I'lease remember you don't have to
compliment the baby to make an im
pression on her. She Is Just a weman
even If Bhe la the baby's mother. And
besides, Larry, all women like your'
eyeB."
Even Bab took pity on Larry, who
was blushing furiously. "Who's kid
ding now?" she demanded of Bart.
"Anyone could say nice things about
this baby," and she reached down and
pulled bis Royal Highness into her
arms.
As she stood there looking at the
young men I said to myself, "Why,
he makes a wonderful picture of a
mother."
Bart must have had something of
this idea, for he said: "Bab, I believe
you look more like the child's mother
than Alix does, but for all that I was
serious with Larry. We all call him
Beauty at school. Larry takes the
principal girl part in all our musical
comedies, and he Is some girl.
"Forget it, Bart, forget It," pro
tested Larry. "That 'Beauty' stuff
makes me sore. It fairly nauseates
me. I am Just about ready to punch
the next fellow who asks me to take
a girl's part In the college plays."
"Cheer up, Larry," grinned Bart.
'You are the only man In the dramatic
club who can sing and dance and look
the part of a real lady."
Larry dropped the subject there and
walked ovei cioser to the baby. To
the surprise of every one little lliil
held out his arms to Larry. It was
the first time my baby bad ever done
such a thing.
With the first self-possession he had
jhown since be bad come Into the
room, Larry answered the appeal 01
those tiny arms and took the baby
from Bab and held him up close to his
face. Tben be turned to me ingenu
ously and said: "Why, I never knew
babies were like this. So soft and
sweet and altogether nice."
"There, you've done it," said Bart
"Alix will fall down and worship you
after that. How do you do It? You
are holding that baby aa though yoi
had been used to babies all your life
I'd be afraid he'd break in two If I
picked him up. I have to wait until
children are big enough to talk be
fore I can make friends with them.'
"It is because you are so rough am
blustery," said Bab. "Even little bab
ies feel the difference between the
way in which Larry approaches them.
I have never seen a man who was as
nice as Larry Is with that baby," and
he gave Larry her most engaging
smile.
At this moment Larry seeVied so
conscious of what he was doing that
be almost dropped my son. With a
cry 1 hastened forward to catch it and
Larry's head and mine came to
gether with a great bump.
"Oh, I beg your pardon, I beg your
pardon, Mrs. Hammersly."
Again I caught that peculiarly sym
pathetic look in Larry's wonderful
eyes. I said to myself, "I hope my
boy will grow up like this one."
"Come along, Larry," shouted Bart.
"You've mooned over that baby long
enough. Bab and I will pick up an
other girl and we'll have a game of
tennis before lunch."
"What is the matter with Mrs. Ham
mersly coming," suggested Larry.
"What do you want with an old mar
ried woman like ber around?" asked
,Bart, with an impish grin. "She gave
up very properly when the baby
came."
Involuntarily I looked into the mir
ror before me. Did I appear so old
that my brother, who was only a year
younger than I, thought I could not
play tennis any more? I had been the
best tennis player of my set before
my marriage. I determined to show
Master Bart that in his own language,
IH has another guess coming."
"At least I'll come out and look on,"
I answered suavely. "I don't think I
will play today, for I know that I am
not In practice, but before your friend
goes back, Bart, he and I will beat
you and anyone that you may choose
as a partner. Preferably, I would like

POOR TYPE OF LEGISLATORS
Some Reasons Assigned for the As
sertion That Lawyers Do Not
Make Good Lawmakers.
Lawyers, as a class, should of
course be represented In any legisla
ture, but their enormous over-representation
In congress involves disas
trous consequences, according to
"Great American Issuer," by John
Hays Hammond and Jeremiah Jenks.
Observation of lawmaking bodies In
many countries leads to the conclusion
that lawyers make a most unsatisfac
tory type of legislators. It Is not (hut
they luck Intelligence but that the
whole course of their professional
training and practice tends to unfit
them to piny an Improtant purt In con
structive enterprises of any kind.
Throughout his career a lawyer Is oc
cupied, not with the realities of things
but with the appearance they may be
mode to bear In legal argument; not
with the consequences which flow
from an action, but with the legiti
macy of Its origin. He Is always con
cerned with the past as a source of
precedent rather than with the fu
ture ns a field for achievement. Pend
ing legislation is often to the lawyer
something which will later lie dis
cussed mid Interpreted by lawyers. In
stead of an Instrument designed to ef
fect a definite practical aim. It is
largely due to the lawyer's attitude to-
I wnnl legislation nun to the influence
It has exerfed upon the form and tex
ture of ennctinents thut so ninny laws
passed for the purpose of removing
nhiises In our economic and Industrial
system have, until recently resulted
In many luwsuits and little reform.

The Phils have gradually declined trom pennant winner under Pat Morau to

Wild Bill Donovan, former boss of the old New York Highlanders, will try
his hand with the destinies of the National league club this season, and the
funs are looking to him to get them some kind of a winner. Quakertown Isn t
crazy for a pennant. The bugs Just want something in basebull, not the worst.
"I'm not making unv promises or predictions, but I do think that I can

said.
"The club needs strengthening in several departments. I would like to
have some young blood la-hiud the but und a good peppery iiiQelder. But any
one who follows husebalt knows thut wanting players Jiiid getting them are
two very different things.

Dear Mrs. Ellsbury: I have been
going with a young man who some
times, for several weeks at a time,
must work until midnight. Several
times he has called to see me after
leaving work. Since I let him come
to see me at this late hour he has
not been as respectful as before.
What shall I do? I like him better
than any other man I know. L.
A. When you permitted this n.nn
to call at such mi unconventional
hour he dniilitlewt concluded thut
your standards were, nut so hlih as
he liad thought and that you would
not resent his fuiniliurity and disrt
Iiect. Itccelve him hereafter only
during the usual hour of calling. If
he Is again disrespectful have noth

a boy to become engaged to him? I
have been told that a girl can not
know whether she loves a man at
that age or not. It is advisable for
a girl of this age to become engaged
If she does not expect to marry for
