HyVfene for Babies

Food.-At year old the child must be en-
tirely weaned, and soon he must have daily q
little under-cooked meat pounded up into q
pulp. and to which little gravy and salt are
added some potato finely mashed and covered
with gravy; an egg, or q little milk pudding.
On no account should he be allowed any wine,
beer, tea or coffee. though he may have cocoa
and milk. He should be given his meals regu-
larry, and ne should not be allowed to "pck" at
intervals. Children flourish best on fresh foods.
The worst nonrished patients that see at the
hospital for sick children are those reared on
Swiss milk and various patent foods. Rule Do
not give baby food or physic that is adver-
tised.
Clothing Babies and little children must be
kept always warm. They cannot be hardened"
by scanty clothing or cold baths. Their necks,
thighs, legs, and arms need to be covered as
well as their chests and bodies; they should
wear long sleeves and stockings, and, when old
enough, cotton or flannel drawers.
Fresh Air.-Children should be taken out of
doors each day that the weather is fine. II they
are sent out In perambulatOr, care must be
taken that the feet and legs are warm to start
with, and that they are so well covered through
home. Every day, unless bitter wind is blow
Ing, or 1t is foggy. the windows should be opened
children as fresh food.
Sieepin9.-At night. II q child perspires freely
or kicks of the 6ed-clothes, he should wear q
flannel bed-gown long enough to be tied below
his feet, and the bed-clothes must be securely
tucked In. He should not be rocked or patted
to make him sleep; sleep should come naturally,
and, like the food, at regular intervals.
misunderstanding and night he should be
washed all over In warm water, but should not
be exposed long enough to feel chilly afterward.
A handful Of sea salt, thoroughly dissolved, may
be added to the bath. Except In the very warm
est weather no little child should be put In q
cold bath.-Edmund Queen

I had been sent to Springfield and interven-

was to see at Springfield was tough case
and to put the demand at once in the hands of
me reliable attorney and If he got the

at Springfield just before dinner With the
zeal of a boy on his first expedition 1 did not
wait to 'wash-up" and get my dinner.
tackled the landlord who was busy and nat
urally cross. Said l: "Where will find
lawyer who is reliable and will tote fair with a
10 GO and see Old Abe" said he. "Old Abe
who" said /. 80 bother, )" said the landlord,
ego out on the street there and inquire for Old
Abe. Anybody can tell you where to find him"
walked along the street and asked the first
man met where could find Old Abe. That
now famous little One-story office was
pointed out and 1 went in. There with an
open law book on table before him, with his
hands clasped just below one knee, sat man
who turned that genial but rugged face and
looked at me. then and there fell In love with
him. ! was an original Lincoln man from
that hour. Abraham Lincoln never impressed
me as homely or ungainly man, but always as a
lOvabe man.
i said: 1.-The landlord up there, when I asked
him where could find lawyer who would talk
fair and square with green boy
80, yes" said he with that peculiar twinkle
Of his eyes. II suppose he said, Go and see
Cid Abe?'"
Eyes sir, he said that. and when l asked him
| who Old Abe was he said anybody would tell me
where to find YOU"
with grave but unOstentatiOus dignity he
| said: my name is Lincoln-Abraham Lincoln.
What Is it can do for yOu!''
i stated my business. He said: 81 understand
what is wanted. Go and get your dinner and
spend your time as pleasantly as may be, and
| l will call this evening after supper and report
| progress"
Before dark he came to the hotel and beck
| oned me into a room across the hall. sat down
| at a table, took out a specie-bag and shook it
| merrily, saying. In q confidential undertone:
1--WE got it. dollar for dollar"
| He counted the money, put it back into the
| bag, and handed it to me, saying: 'There, my
| boy. think that job is worth $50" was per
fectly elated and showed it. / took out of the
| bag $40; and hustled it across the table toward
| him. Taking half of it, he said: IL only want
/ $40. ] think 1t worth that" $50 do l. forty
Pa said IL you got the money to give you $40
1t is yours" at is not mine" II won't take
1t back. Pa told me to pay $40. You shall keep
It."
| II met Mr.. Lincoln casually several times
after that; the last and only time after his cleo
ton, In the White House, In April, 1869. HI
looked carewOrn and preOccupied. But, witt
the old twinkle In his eyes, he asked:
"What was 1t pa saId?"
