Girls for Doing Housework.


The people of New England not many
years ago were "wiser in their generation y
They designated the female who was EN-.
ployed to do housework as the "help," though
she discharged the same duties rs the SHRED
girl" In q western village or tho domestic
servant" in any Of our large cities. "Helpa
sounds much better than ''hircd girln or any
kind Of servant" 1t implies an associate
and suggests some sort of equality. The In
ference Is that helper Is somewhat inferior
10 the person she assists, but reasonable
explanation Of this is afforded by the cir
cumstance Of youth and inexperience, condi.
tions that are very fattering to young
woman. The word "help' or "helper" dos
not suggest positive inferiority, but intl-
mates that the person TO whom tho term is
applied is fairly capable, trustworthy and Is
In the way Of advancement. A bad word
or phrase often does a good deal of mischief.
When this Is the case il IL best TO allow it TO
become obsolete. Many good woman has
lost her "help" by referring to her as her
servant Most persons are servants one way
or another, but no one likes to be called so.
The question Of how to obtain and keep
reliable, efficient and capable girls for doing
housework, like the poor, is always with US.
The demand for such girls constantly in

Food for an Infant.

Q small wineglassful OF course by stretch
ing--for 1t Is very elassic--it can be mado to
hold several times that quantity, but, when

pushes them out Of place and causes pain.
When this fact Is known, the folly Of allow
ing the child to feed froma bottle containing
half pint or more Of food viii al once ap-
pear evident When the stomach isdistendcd
vomiting Ia often the measure Of relief. In
distention. when the superfuous food is not
thrown Off, tho baby ia fretfsl and cries with
pain. 1t is overlooking the stomach which
frequently excites collie Mothers seldom
recognize the fact, however, and, as a rule,
interpreting the little ores cries as an evil
dence Of hunger, go on giving 1t more food
and making matters worse. Permanent dis
tention Of the stomach is Lot infrcquenIy the
consequence Of overfeediyg, the organ. which
Is elastic, losing its power Of contracting to
