Simple old things have their niche. I don't remember much about her views of voting ror hor social prestige nnd what her ideas on child-training diet, nnd cngenics wore I cannot re call. Tho main thing that sifts back to nie now thru the thick undergrowth of years is that SHE LOVED ME. I don't think she knew how to bring up j children; she was too much of a child herself, and seemed to like to lie on tho grass with mo and tell stories, or to run and hide nnd screnm and laugh with us children, than to homilize us along up the straight and narrow path. She was always hugging me. She would wake me up to play With me. She would kiss mo inordinately. She loved me in rather a fierce way. And I likeil it. She hnd n sunny face. To mo it was like Cod, nnd all the be atitudes saints tell of Him. And sing! Of all the sensations pleasurable to my life nothing compare witli the rapture of crawling up into her lap and going to sleep, j while she swung to and fro in her rocking chair and sang. j PARAMOUNT PICTURES The Oliver Morosco Photo Piny Company present- Lois Moridilli and "Help Wanted" "llrlp Wanted" i:imlh in i tiikui.' iniinirr ihr t.vtlnv fi.l ih.it many rniilorrs lu wmiM )i,,mI'I he on tl,tn U.i U-n.ni.. ,n i ui' home, for come rr.ixm rr.itd licr .i f.ur ,in when 'lie cnlii .in .,!!,., . an niiiiic.

Thinking of this, I wonder if the woman of today, with all hor tremen dous notions and plans, realizes what an almighty factor she is in the shap ing of her child for weal or woe? I wonder if she realizes how much sheer love and attention count for in a child's life? 1 wonder if she knows what it meant, to create memories that are going to stay green when life's hotter impres sions have gone? Thus mused the Sentimental Man. NEW YOHKEILS AIIIS TICKLED The report comes to the west that business men and manufacturer of New York arc so happy that they can scarcely contain themselves. "Ilusiness hus revived. The New York idea of "business" is not the same as we have it out here. In New York "business consists of betting on results; in other words, speculation. The European war loin set the, spe culators going. Ther.' is just enough noveHv about the Euioponn war so- that reason we judge tliero is nn im mense profit ill the manufucUire of ammunition. Wall Street, however, is happy. Hrokers who have neon without new clothes, nre now riding down in the elevated trains in brand new gunnels. They are smokig a bolter brand of ci- garcttes or cigars and doubtless drink- ing champagne between times. The New York broker is aijucor character j He lias no use for legitimate business, but is swelled up with I ho idea that his "business" is 'legitimate. :lle is not content to buy bond3 and' fuld them; he must put up money ai.d bet on them. As wo remember it, oi.r new reserve bank act was to put Wall street out of 'uisinesR; was to stop ipo"ulation; was to relieve the west jf tin. incubus of the stock exchange. No doubt the re serve bank act has dope some good, but it is evident that tho business world in tl believe thr the United States will never that business is really good until tho proclamation comes from Wall street to that effect. We must admit, However, that it is I nice 10 nave western men coming Home from the east smiling.

"Conditions in the South appear to be steadily improving. Cotton prices are gradually growing better but tin1 most hopeful sign is in the evidence that the one crop plan will soon be thrown into the discard.
