Ti^s Are Wages. That tips are wages has been decided by the Appeals Court of England. The case came before it in a claim made under the workmen's compensation act. in behalf of a waiter who was accidentally killed in a dining car. It was contended by his dependents that the true basis of reckoning was the man's wages plus his tips. The lower court denied this, but on appeal it was held that tips are to be regarded as wages "when the giving and receiving of them are open and notorious."

"Well, you may 'Oh, my!' all you want to, I'm not to blame. If my papa were rich, like yours, I'd have Easters, too. Maybe I'd have one every day!" "Oh, my!" Little Playmate began to look cross, and seemed on the point of springing up and running away? which was her usual manner of letting Lina know that she was displeased. But this time Lina leaned over and took both small brown hands in hers, while into her gentle eyes and* over her dear face there came such a look of love and pity that Little Playmate, Hannah, stayed.

I It has been well said that man's j mging for immortality is inherent. \ fen are born into this life with that I 3nd anticipation.

And what was regarded by iem as only a possibility was later nade manifest by the appearance of lr Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath lolished death, and hath brought life id Immortality to light through the jspel." The Christian's ideal of imor.ality, it shoud be noted, was that ! prolonged existence upon an imeasurably elevated plane.

In some children of eight months I or more there appears occasionally a i display of violent temper which is | hard to control. In such a paroxysm j of rage a child will destroy anything ! within his reach, screaming, in the ' i meantime, at the top of his lungs, t The only thing for the mother to- do is to keep him as still and as quiet i j as possible. If he persists in yelling, i j pick liim up and carry him to a quiet | place whither there is nothing he can ; injure?and leave him there. To be in solitude is the very best medicine for him at such a time. Striking him or punishing him in some manner is rarely successful in quieting him. If a child is quieted in such a manner, it ( is almost as bad as to leave him in a state of anger, for the emotion of fear has only been substituted for the emo- ; j lion of anger?and there is little I gained for the child. If mothers 1 t were only more hdnest with them- 1 j selves in this respect, it would be I better for them as well as for their j children. . ; How many women excuse their own (hasty temper with the thought that j they had only the child's welfare at : I heart, queries a- writer in Dressma- . j king at Home?
