Mr. Mills was finishing a model of the head of an Indian chief, and as she watched it develop beneath his tooth she suddenly exclaimed: "I can do that!" With a smile at the confidence of youth, Benator Rollins handed her a piece of clay, the result being that within two hours she had produced each a counterpart of the head as filled all who beheld It with wonder: ' Realizing the puasiblltttee which so phe- nomenal a gift implied, her friends urged that she should dedicate baleen' to art, but her father's health bad tailed, and se- a !Warted member of a choir and a clerk In the poste:Bee department V%%Ma Ream was the breadwinner of the family.

"Man bas s number of fixed, old Lash - loved notions about the Ideal women which are quite apart from questions of eomplexton and dress," writes Carrie B1 Garrett lu Woman's Home Companion. "The sober truth is that while men may seek diversion with the more showy, 8ippnnt sort of girl and are often caught by mere glitter they have an Ideal far, far above this cheap type which is im- perishable. A man does not picture a completely limp and characterless crea- ture es hie soul's Ideal, however 'sweet' Yet the woman as she appears In his dreams Is not toe clever. 11 Is a pleasure to him to be a little superior to his mate, to be 'looked up to,' and al the true wo• men desires to 'look up' It is clear that nature's arrangements In these matters are not without design. The most charm- ing women of all Is she who has the con• summate wit to seem to look up' when really she stands on a level with the man who loves her or perchance a little above hint. "One thing Imperatively demanded la the make up of the Ideal woman Is me. patby, that all divining, all forgiving quality which makes the whole world akin. Sympathy le one of the prime fac- tors of charm. So le humor. A man le fearfully lonesome when his wife cannot see hie jokes.

Her wise and lovely mother sat beside her, sewing and softly humming a tune the child loved, apparently uncon- acinus of the excitement, and silently checked our spontaneous attempt at cow ciliation, an attempt vloleutly resented by the unreasoning child. This. I learned, was not her Srst tantrum and, 110 fair w etly, originated In a failure to receive desired and immediate personal attention.

When the blue eyes again opened, they bad it strange expression of inquiry, then s shade of apparent memo- ry; a frown rid a kick followed. but, like her very pteocnce, all were lowed. A long 'cogen of reflection then followed, after which she crept from her cradle and with a omlle of cherubic sweetness pre- sented herself at her mother's side for a Mae, which was cordially given with the o enol earses, and the nauyhtinese of the aneru°on wait never alluded to by mother or child, nor did that temper ever again meatiest itself.--C6rbotban Work.
