' Chats With Parents . THE CIl'lLU'fe SIDK OF IT By Alice Jmlsoil l'eiilo It was a long rainy afternoon, and Leonard, having exhausted his toys, told mother he was going to pretend to bo the minister and pay her a call. With an umbrella from the hall stand hung over his arm and a palp of spectacles without glass askew across his nose, he sat down In the chair opposite her. He talked about tlra weather, the coming church bazar, Mrs. So-and-so's rheumatism and the like. More and more Leonard warmed to his role. "There is something I have been wanting to ask your advice" about for a long time." said mother, suddenly. "You know my boy, Leonard, don't you?" Leonard nodded his head sober ly, and his mother went on, "Well, ho Is a fine boy. but so often he's tcr- and Party Cakes Our ins for Health and Wind Up At The Windmill A Strictly Home-Owned Bakery ribly naughty." ; "You don't say," said Leonard. ( "Yes, really. He comes late for meals. He wont go to bed when It's time. He teases and whines after he has been told 'No What do you think I ought to do about him?" "I'll tell you what the trouble is, madam." said Leonard. "That boy can't ever tell when you mean .what you say when you're just talking. Sometimes you scold him for doing a thing, sometimes you don't. You can't blame him for fussing and trying to get his way. I'm very much afraid that your troubles with Leonard are your own fault." "Perhaps you aha right," said moth smiling. "I'll try to do better. Thank you so much for your help." j "Well, I must be going," said Leon - ard, who apparently felt there, ha I been enough of this. 'Good-bye. i Many a child could thus prescribe ! for himself if given the opportunity. ! When somb happy chance gives mothj ler the Inside tracic, she may well profit by what she learns. Health VNBl'ktDEMKG ONE'S SELF Patients frequently come to thfc doctor, as they put it, to. unburdeQ themselves. This is a practice useful In many ways both to the pattent and to the physician. The physician, through, such con tacts with the patient, Is better able to understand him when acute Ill ness arises. The patient, on the othet hand, frequently finds relief from be setting Ills and problems through "talking It over" with the doctor. There is, however, another form of "unburdening one's self" which has a different sort of motive, and which. Is a very plague to the doctor, and a trial to the patient. In it the patient seeks escape from soma exceedingly uncomfortable sit uation and carries to the physician complaining of some symptom com plex. , i Should the unsuspecting physician make an earnest attempt to cure the patient of his complaints, either he will find himself balked on every step of the way, or the patient will de velop a new set of symptoms to tafcs the place of those which have been "cured." . . 4. , For such a patient does not really want to bo cured of his symptom. To be cured means to be confronted once again by the very uncomfortable s'tuation from which escape was sought by way of physical illness. The histories of such persons are most disconcerting. It Is not long before; the physician -discovers the neurotic clement In the disease pic ture. f , i , Should the physician then Inform his ' patient that the physical com: plaints merely mask emotional and psychologic disabilities, he Is liable to bring down wrath upon his own head, or what is perhaps as bad for the physician and worse for the patient there will be change In doctors. -t Every physician knows of such, won dorhig .patients and, knows. .hat, It?is exceedingly d If f lculty If, . not- impossi ble, to cure one unwilling to be cured. l - SUGAR AND FLOliK , I ' PORTLAND, Apr. 1 VP)- Sugar cane, granulated 44.25 100 lbs., bo-bt !4.15. ; Domestic Hour Selling price dc-.

H. Aver 111 that there is no occasion for alarm on the part of Oregon policyholders or the public In general; and in his opinion, which is borne out fey the 'examination reports and recent fi nancial statements on rile in his of fice, the company Is solvent and In sound financial condition, having transacted business in this state for the past 23 years in a manner satis factory to its policyholders and to the insurance department. Commissioner Averlll, In ti tele phone conversation with Joseph B.

While the commissioner feelB sure that the responsible people In the Insurance business in this Btate will use ev ery effort to discredit any rumors, there are these who, for personal gain or with malice aforethought always uppermost In their minds, need to be warned.

"God lovb yo'ul" sobbed his blufr' eyed mother, with her baby at last! in Ivor arms. First efforts to drag the bnby to safety with a rope were futile.
