care Of Infants In Hot weather.

AT q recent meeting of the Phila-
delphia County Medical Society,
Prof. VIM. Goedell, of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, spoke on in
FAINT hygiene. He said that much
sickness is caused among infants in
het weather by too much clothing.
In regard to food, he said the in
FAINT, as long as it thrives on it,
should have no other food than the
mothers milk until it is a year old.
If the mother has not milk enough,
he thought that in cities cows milk
wasthe best substitute, and as most
of the milk sold in cities is apt to
be diluted before sold, he would not
mix any more water with it. If the
milk is absolutely known to be pure,
then it should be diluted one-ffth
and a little sugar added to it, when
the nearest approach to mothers
milk obtainable is had. He also
disapproved of boiling the milk for
infants, but thought it ought to be
given cold. To prevent the i'll eff
fects of the churning ofthe milk by
hauling it in half.flled cans over
the stones of the streets, he sugges-
ted that parents should have cans
to hold Just the quantity needed,
and have them filed and the tops
screwed on at the depots. He
strongly favored the use of con-
densed milk in cities as the best
possible food for infants that have
to be reared on the bottle. He also
condemned the use of nursing bot
ties with flexible tubes, on account
of the temptation to lay them beside
the child and allow it to suck until
it is overfed. An ordinary bottle
a gum nipple is far better, be-
cause it is impossible for the child
to nurse itself, and it is not so apt
to get indigestion by overlooking.
No child under two years old should
be allowed to sit at the table with
adults and eat the same food. Starch
are very harmful to infants.
Dr.. Atkins indorsed Prof. Good
ellis remarks in favor of the use of
condensed milk and against allow
ing young children to eat the same
food as adults.

The Turks Change Front and
Face to the Westward.
The Russians DeplOying to Face
the Turkish Line from
Rustchuk to
Shumla.
When the Movements are Complete y
General Battle May be
Expected.

LONDON, July THE military situA'
ton now appears to be as follows: The
Turks have changed their front aud
faced to the westward since the Russians
entrance into Bulgaria. The Russians
are deploying, with their left flank rest
tug on the Danube, to face the Turkish
line from Rustchuk to Shumla. When
this movement is complete a general
battle may be expected unless the Turks
fall back to the Balkans or tho Russians
mask the whole quadrillateral aud turn
it BY passing the Balkans. The Rus.
sian forces coming through Dobrudscha
are approaching the real Of the Turkish
Rustchuk and ShumIa line. This col.
umn is too strong to be opposed by any
force detached from the Turkish main
body, while the main body itself cannot
turn upon it without exposing its rear to
the Russian main force.
This situation is the creation Of a cor.
respondent. He seems to entirely ignore
the existence Of Silestria, Varna aud
K~ustendenje, and the latest information
fixes the garrisons at these places, re
spectively, at 1000, 20 1000 and 10000,
which, operating on the TANKS or rear Of
the Russian-D obrrdscha force, would
paralyze its efforts to cooperate with the
army in control OF Bulgaria. Besides
the garrisons of these fortified places
Suliemsn Pasha's army, which is now
stated to be embsrking at Antivari, could
be landed at Varna, which would make
the number of Turks On the Russian left
flank over $4,000. The Rassian.D obrud-
scba corps is expected to number only
10000.

A correspondent Of the London
Times, after toiling through the
dust and slime on the lower Danube,
reached Galatz and asked for bath.
He was told that the only bath he
could have was a hot one. Accept
ing the offer, he was shown to one
Of a range Of rooms with plunge
baths in the corner. A sturdy
Wallachian damsel of twenty-five
was the attendant. She spoke only
a few words Of German, just enough
to ask whether he would have soap
and allies. Seeing that there was
nothing TO dry himself with, he
consented to have allies, though
with some misgiving as t.. the ulti-
mate result. She told him to get
into the bath and ring when he was
ready for some one to come to him.
He rang accordingly, when she her.
self appeared with soap and towels,
bare feet, and bare, mighty arms.
She told him that the large piece Of
flannel she held in her hand was
intended to be used by herself in
cleaning him thoroughly. The Offer
was made in perfect simplicity.
there was not a touch of coquetry
about her, and her baby outside
was calling to her. In pursuit Of
her Legitimate business, with the
brawny arms which gained food fol
her child, perhaps for a lazy hus
band, she proposed to wash him a.
thoroughly as she would hay,
washed a child or a groom woulc
clean o horse.
