"For both of them? Why I just telt sorry for the little girl: I wonder what she was crying about?" Jerry: and his 'mother were resting 'on. the lawn .under'their favorite tree 'after their trip to town. Although only six years old, Jerry was learning ;ko think reflectively. Both were silent for a while, then the boy continued, "You wouldn't have done that way if something had both- ered me until I cried, would you?" "I hope not, Son, but a mother gets quite nervous andupset sometimes. What do you think I should have done?" "Well,. I. believe you would have said, 'What's the trouble, Jerry boy, ,can't you stop crying and tell me about it?' Then I'd have tried to stop and if I ootildn't you would have stood ;still and talked it out me, Then everything would have been all right. But I'm too big tol ccrryso a test set though •glad ou are my mother and_ that we can talk together the way. we do" "That is Sweet of you, Little Man, and I appreciate it very muoh. I'm just as glad you are my son as you are that. I am your mother." "I guess we are chums," the boy said as he smiled' up at itis mother. Then he scampered of to inset his clog: The mother sat wondering about the woman who had impressed het son so unfavorably. Why had she not tried to discover the source of the trouble and to remedy it instead of being so. rude and unkind? "Why isit," she thought, "that mothers so often forget that children arepersons and should be treated with respect? How humiliating to a little girl to be handled so roughly and spoken to so rudetyia public! "I wonder if the child will ever feel like goiug to her and talking over her troubles, Will she tell her mother they are chums and she is glad to be her little girl? Why I'd almosthave halted tragic, I believe, if necessary to see what caused tate child to be un- happy enough to cry like that. Why didn't the woman. lead her gently to one side where they could have dis- cussed the matter quietly until uuhap- piness was erased from the sweet young face? Then this child, too, could have said, 'Pm glad you're my mother'." — Issued by the National ICiadergarten Association, 8 West 40th Street, New York City These articles are appearing weekly in our columns.

Nicotine Absent "It was noted. during a preliminary study of the seed," the report con- tinues, "that nicotine, while entirely absent from the uusprouted seed, was present its conspicuous amounts in the sprouts that develop in about 12 days when the seeds are scattered on blot - thug paper moistened with distilled water. It is evident that this alkaloid is synthesized very early in the life of the plant" The experimenters are trying to find out where the nicotine, a deadly poison in its pure state, comes from. Chain'. cal analysis shows that the seed con- taiue a high proportion of fat and a very low proportion of carbohydrates, thus somewhat resembling the soy beau -and various oily nuts. A method has been devised, the re- port states, of extracting the protein content of the seed, and a study of its chemical properties now is under way. The investigators are especially in- terested in the various water-soluble substances which may be present in the alkaline content. Thus far they have demonstrated the presence of live biochemical sub- stances—choline, au alkaline sub- stance found tit the yolks of eggs; be- taine, found in beets; adenine, a pro- duct of growing plaut cells; arginine aatl guanine. But there is no trace of nicotine, the alkoloid peculiar to to- bacco itself.

G. Perry, vice-president of the Ottawa Flying Club. Ho exhibited it at a meeting of the Canadian section of the Society of Automotive Engin- eers at Toronto. The coutrivanoe is constructed to be operated on land in runways of snow or ice and to provide protection against mud in the spring. It has been tested out in these conditions and found to be practical. A hydraulic jack was used for oper- ating, and when the wheel was not in use it was placed to a shoe. The ski, as he illustrated it, was made to keep out 01 harm's way or to be lowered and the wheel placed itt its pocket. In case of the cratt getting stuck in the arid, the ski could be lowered partial- ly, so that It touched the ground and assisted it pulling the machine out.

In connection with the chemical work, it is announced, an easy method has beett found for the preparation of nicotine of high purity. The workers also isolated pure nicotimino, a little known volatile alkaloid that accom- panies nicotine in tobacco, but is quite different, chemically, from the poison itself. _ It is also reported that an abund- ance 01 vitamin° E has been. demon - drilled lu tae leaves of watercress.
