    210

    I don't think I could stand it if the mother changed her mind.

    211

    I don't think she has any special tenderness for them--I have never seen her caress them; but she dresses and undresses them many times during the day and handles them exactly as she has seen her mother and the nurse handle her baby sister.

    223
