triumphant modern madonna a woman to whom mother motherhood bood has brought nothing but joy and nd whose children are her crown of at happiness she haa had all that women crave has this woman who is a darling of the gods first she bad had success and fame which she won by her own genius then she was given love and marriage and enormous wealth and high social position sho she has beauty that 13 1 1111 up undimmed dImmed but the best that life has riven given her Is 1 her children and it Is good to hear bear her say so my acquaintances have sometimes pitied me she said with a smile because I 1 have bad had so arny babies hut but I 1 have not one mild too daany I 1 have never had bad a child that I 1 md not want or that has not found a warm welcome waiting for it I 1 think that Is one beaw why my children have all jilt be beba on 0 o strong and have bad such ouch w s no dispo I 1 h kv fei felt the reap of motherhood r d aye tried to give my ray children as an good a ible by giving them sound bohlem before the they were born t I 1 took every care ot of my own health and lived as much as possible poa tn in the open even air defore before edith raa as horn barn I 1 spent births on our yacht cri cruising ising around as it waa was au summer trimer la in fact eie was born b orn et at sei se ahn I 1 have nursed ray my babies myself except twice when illness rendered it impossible for me rae to do so I 1 do not believe lieve in sterilized eternized milk nor patent baby foods A baby la Is like a little puppy if you want it to grow fine and strong and fat you must givy give it the tight right start and nothing baa has yet been discovered that tales tho the place of the food that nature intended for a child in raising my children my plan haa has been to bring them up to be simple and hardy not ono one of my children haa has CIO 43 was 4 M P A AD GLOW dflia ever had on a stitch of flannel not even a tunnel flannel petticoat they davd warm wraps when they go out wit of doors but in the bouso house they wear tittle little socks and low necked and short sleeved cotton or woolen clothes they live also on the simplest cimpl est and plainest food cereals and arid ediss tender steaks and good roast meat with plenty of vegetables and fruit and the simplest sort of dessert they have any at nil all no pies and pastry and no at candy all day for them I 1 also put great stress on absolute regularity in eating and no matter who else waits the children have their meals exactly on the stroke of the clock we are a very domestic family and the children have their breakfast and lunch which Is really their dinner with mr gould and myself but until they are 16 years old they havo have their supper at a little ater after six oi ock and only have something very light tv to eat they never come to dinner unless upon their birthdays it Is permitted as a great treat why marjoree Marj orle never came to dinner regularly until last year and she is still so attached to the nursery tava 1 that when we are down at georgian court she often eats with the children by preference Z of course I 1 have so many other duties that it Is g not possible for me to be always with my ba ates and eo so I 1 kept a trained nurse for each one until he lie or she he was two and a half years old and past tho the teething time but there I 1 is never a night even to this day that I 1 do not go into each room the last thing before going to bed and tuck the covers dorn with my own hand hands good and tight around each child and I 1 have u nursed every one of tn children with my own bands hands when they their were sick I 1 had tr ard nurses of course but I 1 sat up with the sick child too when marjorie Marj orle had that fearful spell of scarlet fever in franco franca the hummer before last and when it seemed utterly impossible for her to recover her father and I 1 never left her day or night tor for the doctors bald said that it waa was the mot malignant case thy ever saw sau and that nothing but her marvel ous ou sart ditth pulled her th oetigh they said that it ehe she had been a french girl she certainly would hare have died 1 I believe that the chief thier about raising children up to be well and strong ie Is to bring them up in the country whore where her they can have plenty of treah fresh air and room for and freedom it was tor for the bent fit of our children that we went down to lakewood and built georgian court the second door floor of the bousa house Is devised especially for the children and the sunniest cunn lest room in it ie Is for tho the baby and the next murin sunniest lest for the ex baby and wes always had great times and ceremonies when the reigning monarch had to give sive way for a new king or queen of the nursery and have bis his or her little belongings packed up and moved on everything has been sacrificed for the good of the children for ten yeara years we lived at georgian court only in the winter and took the babies very every summer up to the quietest and dullest lit little ue place in the world to in the catskills ten miles from anywhere aay where at Geor georgian glan court we pra provided Tided every sort ct 5 COD diversion tor for our children to en courage them in athletic sports we have a polo ground and a riding ring and tennis and squash courts and the children have their ponies and ride and drive a great deal the boys were particularly interested Inte rAted in polo and kingdon my oldest sen at 15 was considered one of the beat best polo players in the country jay waa vas also a fine ar V 4 I 1 t 4 A af y a i A WJ COULD affo AND 77 HISSES gioria player but after kingdon went to columbia the game was somewhat broken up so as there was a fine ane professional tennis player at lakewood he took up court tennis instead it ie Is a game that re quire quires unusual strength and quickness 0 ol 01 f motion but he boon soon became so expert at it that when h he e was van 17 he won the american Ame championship and an d when he waa was 18 he be carried off the championship pion plon ship which ie Is of course the championship of the world neither mr gould nor myself Is an advocate of boarding schools we believe that the very beet best associations that children can have lave during the formative years of at their lives are homs homo assoria as socia j eions and that no guardianship Is equal to the loving watchfulness of a father and mother there for i we have kept our children right in the home nest and have had them educated by tutor tutors and govern it li educating the children we have tried to develop each one along the line of hie his or nor her own 1 natural bent benl for instance marjoree Marj orlo orle adores read ing particular poetry and romance she ie Is a good musician and as I 1 said speaks four I 1 but ehe she does not care for what you highl call the drudgery of study and I 1 have not afflicted her with it IL but milan bas a profound mind she loves to study and to delve into deep subject subjects 1 I am very proud of my two big boya boys they clever aro are and they are strong manly manir boys and beet best of all in a mothers eyes they are good neither boys of them has ball ever caused me a moments uneasiness or a single heart pg p g kingdon Is 21 and jay jar is 20 and neit neither her of them smokes or ha has ever tasted
