PUTTING BABY TO SLEEP.
Having His stomach Well Filled Is More
Than Half the Battle.

Having His stomach Well Filled Is More
Than Half the Battle.
A writer in the Ladies Home Maya
zine has this to say about getting baby
to sleep: Let me tell you first of all to
see that he is well fed; a half satisfied
stomach is sure enemy to repose.
Have him warmly wrapped up, and be
sure the feet are warm, not hot or per-
spring. while She room should be rather
cool and darkened. Their brains and
eyes need darkness just as ours do and
what refreshment do we get from sleep
with sunshine or lamplight shining into
our faces? Should you use your bed
room for your sitting and sewing-room,
be sure that the room is properly aired
before baby is put to bed for the night.
You can take him into another room,
close the register and open the windows
and doors for ten minutes or SO. The
air viii be thoroughly changed by that
time. You can then close the windows
and open the register, and in short
time YOU can bring the little fellow
back into fresh yet warm room. If
this simple rule were oftener observed
it would save many a restless night.
Having done this the matter is com
paratively easy. If you nurse your baby
he viii probably fall asleep in your
arms: if you feed him then lay him
gently down in his crib. During the
winter months have the pillow warmed
just enough to take off that unpleasant
chill Of cold cotton. The chances are he
will nestle his little cheek in it and go
right to sleep.

The Sultan Abdul Hamid lives in a

mosque, which he must by the law OF
Mahomet do every Friday, body
Tuard of 10000 men, well paid and

Speaking of the long distances In
this country an Englishman says: ''The

MODEST DR.. PARR.
The Extraordinary Self-Conceit of an En-
glish Author.

glsh Author.
Authors are not, as a rule, excessively
modest when the merits of their own
works are concerned; but for pure, I'M
adulterated cOnceit DR.. Samuel Parr,
who was born January Is, 1747, has no
equal in history. He was learned man,
and wrote some things which gained for
him considerable fame, and he appre-
ciated the fact only too well. tits said
that those passages in his letters which
refer to himself in terms of high praise
would, if collected, form a good-sized
book. In 17SS Parr and Rev Henry
Homer published new edition of BEL
lendenus de Statu'' in three volumes,
DEDICATE" respectively to Burke. Lord
North and Fox The Latin preface was
written by Parr, who in this connection
addressed the following extraordinary
letter to Mr.. Homer: 'What will you
say, or, rather, what shall l say myself
of myself? 1t is now ten o'clock at
night, and l am smoking a quiet pipe
after most vehement, and, | think, a
most splendid effort of composition-an
effort it was, indeed a mighty and
glorious effort, for the object of it was to
lift up Burke to the pinnacle where he
ought to have been placed before, and to
drag down Lord Chatham from that en-
inence to which the cowardice of his
hearers and the credulity of the public
had most weakly exalted the impostor
and father of impostors. Read it, dear
Harry; read it, | say, aloud; read itagain
and again: and when your tongue has
turned its edge from me to the father of
Mr.. Pitt; when your ears Jingle and
ring with my sonorous periods; when
your heart glows and beats with the food
and triumphant remembrance of Ed
mund Burke-then, dear Homer, you
will forgive me; you will love me; you
will congratulate me, and readily will
you take upon yourself the trouble of
printing what in writing has cost nae
much greater, though not longer,
trouble. Old boy, tell you that no part
of the preface is better conceived or bet
ter written; none will be read more
eagerly or felt, by those whom you wish
to feel it, more severely. Old boy, old
boy, it is singer" Comment is super
duous.-Chicago News.
"A queer ordinance was passed by the
McConnelsville (O.) Council recently.
The substance of the ordinance was
to provide for building a high fence
around a certain saloon in town
known as the "Blue Goose, which ap-
pellation is suggested by the peculiarly
bright color of its front. The fence will
be placed there SOFAS to prohibit entrance
from any other than the front door,
which faces the public square, the most
prominent portion of the city.

RARE COINClDEAGE
Richard Wagner and the Fig9re lS-- Three
Elmer EIlswOrths.

Richard Wagner and the Figqre l3--Three
Elmer EIlswOrths.
In searching for ''Notes Tor The Curl
ous'' we have unearthed two that are
quite rare. one concerning Richard Wag-
ner, the composer, and his 13s: the
other a series of conincident names. 1t
is a well-knOwn fact that Wagner died
on the 18th of the month; he was born
in 1913: it takes 10 letters to spell Rich
ard Wagner; his name and the sum of
the figures in 1918 equals 13; he COM
posed 10 works and always declared that
he set his head on his after career on
Che 18th of the month. ''Tannhauser"
was completed on April -, 1915; it was
first performed in Paris March 10, 1861.
He left Bayreuth September Is, 1861.
September is the ninth month; write
9-13 and add the three figures together,
thus: 9-l-3, and you have 10.
The other coincidence concerns the
name of f. E. Reynolds. During April,
1889, E. E. Reynolds, the Utica IN.
Y music dealer, was visited by E. E.
REYNOLDS. of New Haven. Each ac-
knowledged that his name was Elmer
Ellsworth and that he was named for
Ellsworth of Zouave fame. Each was
born the same week. The publication
of the facts brought aletter from Rev.
E. E. Reynolds, of Ludlow, Vt, named
the same and born the same week as the
others.-St Louis Republic.

skeletons the Latest Fad.


Among the latest fads is the craze for
skeletons. hear requests for them at
all the bric-a-brac counters in the various
stores. Nothing larger than those? l
wanted a good big one," said one fair
dame, disconsolately. Truly this is a
prosaic age Time was when the bare
mention of the word skeleton to one of
the feminine gender caused shudder OF
disgust, and as to having one about the
house barbarous! But now frolicsome
little imp peers at you from a bracket in
a dark corner or brushes against your
face as you walk under the gas jet.
Surely we are getting back to first prin-
ciples.-N. Y. Mail and Express.
Making Up a Newspaper
Of the toll which a daily newspaper
demands, of the unceasing attention 1t
exacts, of the judicious care it requires,
the great public of readers take no ae-
count. 1t might lead a dissatisfied pur-
chaser to revise his Judgment II ne
could stand between two and three
o'clock in the morning in the composing
room of great journal and witness the
intense excitement all kept well under
in properly regulated offices, which
characterize the making up OF the
sheet he sometimes dismisses so con-
temptuously. The printer, if then in
state to speak calmly, might tell him
the great point was not so much what
should go in, as what should be le1s
out.-Printer's Register.
