Fifty yards farther down were two figures, a man and a woman, their backs toward me, running. The woman was in front. It was a chase. "I saw at once my game and held on without a sound.

"Now. if it is a bright day tomorrow, 1 am going to begin on him." Ir was a bright day, and daddy used up eight pletes dancing about the baby while it was being dressed, taking very snappy snapshots at hien. Afterward they put him on the door in the midst of a half dozen pillows and turned the cat over to hint. The feline must have objected to being pietured, for just as daduy was pressing the button the animal turned upon her small tormentor and let out a yowl that nearly frightened Tootsy into apatite. It took mammy an hour to bring g him around again, but daddy managed to use up the dozen plates on the pair just the same. He took the filo. to town that clay, had it developed in a hurry and brought it home at night. The results of the piotures were hardly sntisfactory. The first ei,,ht contained excellent pictures of the edeas of ohairs, plocas of the rug, the zuantei, mammy'e arm and hand, and the baby basket with one small bare foot on the °deo of the picture, but the baby's face did not appear. 'i'hls was disappointing, but they turned to the other plates with hope. Tho eat picture showed a large, it regular blank blotch, covering seven - eighths of the plata, and which, when printed, proved to be the baby's mouth ae it let out a yell of fear. The picture was natural, but the young folks didn't seam to like 1t. Then daddy bought an instruction book and went into the business of amateur photography in earnest. At the end of the month Ittihad purchased n new camera and supplies amounting to $173.54 in all, and as a result had one picture in which a baby face surrounded by a lot of white, fluffy clothing could bo distinguished. But even this was not satisfactory, for tht baby's countenance had "taken" so dark that the contrast with the white back- ground was distressing. They printed and mounted one and placed it on the sitting room table, but it dill not remain there long. Bobbie, a small cousin, appeared on the scene one afternoon while mammy had a swell caller and, having caught sight; of the photograph, howled to his brother, "Come here, Tommie, and see the Indian baby picture!" That picture was retired. At the end of the tenth week an account of stock was taken. Exactly 104 pictures had been taken, out of which two ware interesting, because visitors didn't have to make more than two guesses before de- ciding directly what they represented. Then one afternoon Tootsey got hold of the camera himself, while in his nurse's arms, and the next moment it had landed in the open grate. Tho greedy flames ate it up, celluloid film, bens, box and all. The next day daddy and mammy took the baby to a professional photographer and had a regulation picture made of him. It took the operator an hour to get the baby into a good humor, but daddy en- joyed the exhibition. Ho had been there himself. -Cincinnati Commercial Trib- une. -- Was Reckless.

Toronto, Nov. 27. -The daily papers from day to day contain reports of the wrecking of onee happy homes, through the insanity of mothers, whose reason has been destroyed by illness. Women's burdens are many* and hea- vy, and hard to bear. They are, as a rule, borne in silence, for women don't want to incur the expense of calling in the doctor; they don't want to worry their husbands. They continue suffer- ing in silence, wbilte their ailments are sapping their strength, undermining their health and reason, and hurrying them to the grave.
