BABY'S SLEEP.

Sleep for the child is even more of Il

room at certain hour, the baby will
form the habit of falling asleep, and
will never know any other way. A
light should not be left burning at
night; it vitiates the atmosphere, and
sleep is not as sound as in the dark.
A child thirteen months old was so u.s.
ed to assOciating the ideas of sleep and
darkness that, in travelling, whenever
a tunnel was entered, he would drop
down for nap, and seemed very much
astonished at the shOrtness of the
night.
Don't let the baby learn that he can
keep you with him by refusing to go
to sleep. He will soon come to have
an instructive knowledge that mamma
desires to go out for the evening, and
become tyrannical. A child accus-
toned to going to sleep on the bed will
not readily go to sleep in arms, but
will try. to slip out of them, and when
put down upon its bed will draw a
sigh of relief and drop to sleep at once.
A child will have more profound and

CLOTHING IN COLD WEATHER.

Dress as warmly in November and
March as in january. The damp chill
of early spring and late fall abstracts
bodily heat more quickly than does the
dry cold of winter. Light garments
are worn too late in the fall and too
early in the spring. Hence pneumo-
mia and pleurisy. Wear flannel or
heavy merinO underclOthing. During
warm days in fall and spring wear
lighter outside garments. Flannel

warmer when worn rather loose. If it

night by abundance of blankets. In

Cold garments attracting warmth

than you deem necessary. Heavy hose

WHAT TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS
MEANS.

Mr.. Vanderbilt was worth $500, 900,
900. If we say that he was worth
$500, OOO, 900 or ST. 900, 0OO,0 900, do we
get perceptibly different impression
about the bulk of his fortune? Most
people do not. To the average mind
the conception of enormous wealth is
much the same whether it be reckOned
in millions or vigintillions. The hu-
man mind cannot grasp these great
sums or clearly appreciate the differ
ence between one hundred millions
and two hundred millions.
Let us try and describe Mr.. Wander
bits great fortune in terms of linear,
square, and cubic measurement and of
weight. Everybody understands these
terms, and they make a definite i'm
preston on mems minds.
If this sum of $2OO,OOO,OOO were in
standing silver dollars it would present
such features as this:
Put lengthwise, dollar after dollar,
it would stretch distance of 1872
miles, making silver streak from
New York across the ocean to Liver
pool.
Piled up, dollar on dollar, it would
reach a height of 355 miles.
Laid fiat on the ground, the dollars
would cover a space of nearly 60 acres.
The weight of this mass of silver
would be 7 ,16O tons.
To transport it would require 358
cars, carrying 20 tons each (this is the
of the strongest freight cars)
and making IL train just about d miles
long.
On ordinary grades it would require
IL locomotives to haul this train. On
roads of steep grades and sharp curves,
Is or 90 locomotives would be needed.
In one dollar bills this two hundred
million dollar fortune would assume
such shapes as this:
The bills stretched lengthwise would
extend 1854 miles, or nearly the Cir
of the earth at the equator.
Piled up one on another, close as
leaves i'm new book, they would
reach a height of IL miles.
Spread ont on the ground they would
cover 746 acres, or nearly the whole
surface of Central Park, including
ponds and reservoirs.
A safe deposit vault to contain these
bills would require to be 23 feet long,
p feet wide, and 20 feet high N. Y.

tests signs of awakening, nor should 1T
be allowed to lie without attention.
Take it up as soon us fairly awake, re-
Numbering always the formation of
habits of cleanliness and regularity
A child should never lie wet, either by
night or by day. For the first few
weeks animal heat is best maintained
by sleeping with the mother, but on
no account should child of any age
sleep between two persons, as by SO
doing it must, of necessity, breathe
the emanations from their bodies, and
scroftlla and other evils result. A
crib can be placed so near that the
mother can at any hour satisfy herself
as to the child's condition without ex-
posture to herself. If sleeping in the
mothers bed, it should have separate
covers. The best bed and pillows are
of cotton batting. Feathers are too
heating. A child should never be
awakened from sleep to display to
friends. Neither should older children
be allowed to fall asleep in arms, or
on sofas, because company is present.
When the bed hour comes, the first
duty is to the child. 1t is cruelty to
let the little ones fall asleep with their
clothes on, and then arouse them to the
annoyance of being undressed. Never
put child to bed with its feet cold.
The habit of forenoon maps should
he continued as long as possible. Put
ting to bed after full midday meal
is Objectionable. Children often need
rest when not needing sleep. l have
seen a twO-year-Old child leave his
play, and stand by the bed, saying,
"Mamma, baby cross baby go bed"
He had learned the remedy for the
crOssness which arose from fatigue. A
very soothing process for children of
all ages is rubbing with the hand, es
pecially if the rubber be not physical
ly exhausted. Flex and extend the
limbs, roll them between the hands,
rub both limbs and body towards the
heart. Manipulate the bowels from
the right side up, across and down on
the left side. Turn on the face and
vibrate each vertebra gently; percuss
the whole surface with a fiat hand and
Timber wrist, and finish off with sOoth
ing passes down the spine.
Walking with the child, soothing
syrups, teas, and cOrdials, are all bad
methods of promoting sleep. If care
of the skin, attention to diet, ventila-
ton, dress and all sanitary laws will
not provoke sleep, the case should he
committed to an intelligent physician.
The habit of breathing through the
nose during sleep should be formed by
care in pressing the lips together when
ever they fall apart. The Indian
woman is said to be wise enough to do
this. By this means colds and con-
gestiOns of the lungs may be avoided,
and dangers from contagious diseases

party, who was boasting of his nerve,
was challenged to hold up small tin

weakened and declined. A young lady
present at once offered to hold the tin,
and did so unsliakingly while it was
pierced by II bullet, fired ut IL distance
of twelve yards. She then held up a
smaller ohject-a small plate which
met with the same fate, and picking mp
one of the pieces, held it for further

After the Revolution of 1913 an

va, where he began the publication of
u weekly paper devoted to promulgat-
ing the great idea of the equal division
of all property. In due course rela-
tive of the refOrmer died and left him
a legacy of $4,000 francs. The paper

No Wonder She Was AiIing.

"The editor of the Orange County
Farmer saw in farm house, in a closet
adjoining the kitchen, about Is empty
bottles, which had at one time con
tanned patent medicines of various
sorts. The medicines had all been
swallowed by the farmers wife, who
told him she was constantly ailing. 1t
was surprise to the editor that the
lady still lived"
The explanation of the surprising
fact that she still fingered is that she
really took less than she supposed. A
chemical analysis would doubtless
have shown that the bottles for which
she paid a dollar contained less than
ten cents worth of all kinds of drugs,
poison or not poison. But poor deluded
fools are annually paying millions of
dollars for these nOstrums, and the
most of ii goes to enrich knaves.-

Keep a Diary.

Amid the stereotyped jokes about
diary keeping the Century magazine
has the courage to come out squarely
and seriously in favor of it, claiming
that a complete family history might
be thus easily made by the mother Tor

which would be of invaluable interest
to posterity near and remote, if the
keeper of the diary would only faith
fully perform the little task of record
ing each days important occurrences,
dates of events, etc. The article fur
ther says, "No one who has ever kept
il diary through one year will need To
be urged to keep one ever after"

Care of House Cellars.

1t often happens that members of
farmers families are taken sick, and
no one seems to know the cause until
some physician is called in who may
ask the condition of the cellar under
the house where the person resides. In
former times, more than now since the
introduction of furnaces, large quanti-
ties of vegetables were kept in house
cellars. In addition to decaying vege-
tables might be found the decaying
wood of shelves, bins, racks. skids,
old barrels, etc, with possibly other
accumulations, all helping to produce
tainted and corrupt air that was con-
tinually rising through the house above
to the great injury of the inmates. In
many such cellars there would be no
ventilation the whole winter through,
and possibly little or none late into the
spring.
This state of things we fear is too
common now in some sections. 1t is
all wrong and should not be allowed.
1t is far better when possible to keep
all vegetables in cellar built for the
purpose under a barn or other out
building, and even then all house Gel
lars should be kept clean and neat, and
well ventilated. This ventilation may
be secured by opening the cellar win
dOws during the day. 1t is we'll to use
air. slaked, or even quick lime which
will soon Stake, to scatter about the
cellar to sweeten the same and destroy
germs of disease if possible. No de-
caying matter of any kind should be
allowed to remain. Some may regard
this as Il light matter, but it is an i'm
pOrtant one. The older the cellar the
more essential it is to take good care
of it to prevent bad air from rising up
through the house. No one should be
so busy as to neglect thing of such
vital ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
