Have I daubed and striven for thia, to degen erate at last into Insanity? No; I have worked too steadily, brooded too much, perhaps. Humanity la not machinery, however much we may try to identify them. There la always the soul. Ah, that's it! With these higher powers, why might one not— Pshaw! I am nervous, run down.

Aa time goes on thia rudimentary ef figy ia exchanged for others which bet ter satisfy newly developed tastes and feelings. A girl of six is not content unless her doll baby bears some resem blance to her mother’s baby. Aided by this mirage of reality, the imagination leaps all bounds. But it la checked by too studied an imitation of life. The splendid, richly dressed creature of wax la never really loved. Its tame ness chills the fancy. It la Imposed upon the affections, not created by them. And too large a doll la seldom much liked. A small doll, not too handsome, ia usually the favorite. As girls grow older there may often be seen a touching suggestion of a fact familiar tn real life, a partiality for the weakest and least favored of the doll family.—Good Housekeeping.
