Eeetliop the BABY.

When a baby is to be fed from bottle
choose a common round one, with black
rubber nipple. Bottles with feeding tubes
are an abomination. They cannot be kept
clean without more care than is likely tC
he given to them, and if the tube is not
clean it is a fruitful source of disease
Keep the nipple in cold water when not in
use, and in summer add a pinch Of baking
soda to the water to prevent any suspicion
of sourness, rinsing the nipple in clear
water before using.
Warm the food by setting the bottle in
hot water. Remember that it needs to be
only warm, not hot-about the temperature
that the mothers milk would be if the
baby were being nursed.
When the child is satisfied pour out the
remainder Of the food, if any is left, rinse
the bottle in cold water, wash thoroughly
in warm water and scald with hot water
The mother or NURSE cannot be too partic-
ular in the care Of the bottle, if she wishes
to keep her charge healthy.-Ladies' Home
Journal.

Never Whip the Baby.

I would submit as a treatment for the
baby who insists upon playing with the
poker dangerously near the fire, not
spanking, with its sobs to follow; not the
dark closet, with its horrors to influence
precious life; but just what 1 saw my
friend do. There was a tender Towering
plant, with green leaves and bright
flowers in winter, and the little child was
seized with a desire to caress the sweet
bloom-not to pluck it. His mother said,
Come here, pet.'' He started from the
impulse of habit, but like older ones
tempted he could not leave the flower, but
returned and fairly crowed in his glowing
good nature, unmindful of his disobedi-
ence. Come" said the mother, ''see this
kitty" Still he fingered. The mother
waited no longer, but avoided all danger
of starting the babe on the road to ruin by
encouraging him to display anger by pick
ing him gently upand attracting his atten-
ton to fayorite dog outside the window.
The flower was forgotten that instant. 1t
was moved soon after without attracting
the baby's attention, and what might have
been a stormy scene ended in pleasant
romp and a laugh.-Cor. Detroit Free
Press.

Philadelphia club Of the Players league.
He is also the lively young man that made
things very interesting in baseball circles
during the winter months. 1t will be re-
membered that he signed q three years
contract with the Philadelphia club at that
time, thereby, it is alleged, jumping his
contract with the Kansas City team and
preventing President Speas from selling
him to the National league.
For a while the baseball cranks had
plenty to talk about, and when the Phila-
delphia court Of common pleas granted an
injunction restraining him from playing
with or selling his services to any club
other than that Of Kansas City they fairly
howled with excitement. Inasmuch az
the Kansas City management had paid St,
Paul $4,000 for Pickett it is not TO be won
dered at that they did not want to lose him.
However everything is all right at last
Pickett is playing with the team of his
choice and the Kansas City management
have relinquished all claim to his services.
Pickett is one Of the best players in the
country. He is an average batter, his
fielding is pretty, rapid and accurate, and
On bases he has few peers.

4 Pretty HOnse Dress.

A pretty house dress is a princesse in
pompadour stripes, with an overdress pre-
cisely like a pattern of apron dear to house
keepers, falling TO the feet in front, with
wide straps over the shoulders, crossing at
the back, while the apron itself covers the
hips, meeting in the back The effect is
good, whether in summer brocade with
apron of plain silk, or the striped chalHes
with plain wool or baialine overdress, or
the striped bingham with plain Hprons.
The costume is finished by long five inch
sash round the waist, tied once in front,
with ends hanging nearly to the feet

How to Wash FIanneIs.

after my laundress has had my under
wear under her care for two or three
weeks, said some one the other day, they
are harsh and stiff and shrunken out of all
fit. 1t is very discouraging to pay high
price for undergarments and have them
ruined in one or two washings."
Let the lauDdress put hannels in hot
suds and rub them well between her hands,
rinse and dry as quickly as possible, and
they will retain their soft texture to the
end. To rub them on the washboard is to
full and stitfen them, and to rub soap on
them is to ruin them.-Cor. New York

Legal Impertinence.

Honest witnesses anxious to tell the
truth the whole truth and nothing but
the truth, do not receive from the bench
the protection to which they are entitled.
They are bsdgered, browbeaten and some
times made to commit involuntary perjury
by smart" lawyers the court smiling
the while and seeming to enjoy the over
bearing insoence of the bar. II is a dis
grace to the dignity Of justice that such
things arc permitted and even tacitly en-
couagsd.
Why should a respectable citizen be
brought into court TO be made a butt for
the stale wit and libelous innuendoes of so
called professional gentlemen? Why do
judges allow the ordinary Courtesies Of
life TO be violated every day in the tri-
buDals, where, if anywhere. the rules of
decsncy and decorum should be rightly en-
forced? Why should a pert attorney be
permitted TO imply by his mode of exami-
nation that q gentleman and q man of
honor, whom he knows TO be such, has ap-
pe2Ped on the witpess stand for the express
purpose Of porjuring himself, and is, upon
the whole, a suspicious character?
Is it net enough that an honest man
should be taken from his business without
compensation to testify in a case in which
he has ne personal interest, but he must
also have his reputation assailed and his
feelings wrIng by lawyer who Is paid

at is, Mr.. Hardy" groaned Wellman.
''P,r'aps," went on the torturer, "p'r-
'aps you may be able to sell those fetish
yous 1900 shares to a somebody for suth-
in, but I don't keer for 'em. Iemme
see, think you clever people, you with
the dedicated intellecks, calls this ar
rangement corner. believe you used
that word to me once. Didn't your"
Wellman's answer was a convulsive
shudder. There was silence for mo-
ment, and then Hardy fairly shouted:
Look up, Mr.. Wellmanr'
Startled, the broken Spectator raised
his head. Hardy stood up, and looked
down at him for full minute. Then he
said slowly:
1--we been lookin' for'ard to this a long
time, an now you've got to settle. n'you
can't, you can't do it.
''For Gods sake, Daniel Hardy" cried
Wellman, "de not continue this useless
cruelty. I am in your power. You have
ruined me; it viii take much more than
l possess to satisfy your claim, but name
your figure and let me do my best"
Cruelty, is it, Huh, Ispose It's. That's
what I've cornered We fer. / could ha'
thrown you over the falls at Posket. Now
I've licked you at your own game"
Wellman was completely broken by
the sudden blow, morally as well as
financially. His nerve and dignity left
him, and for an hour Daniel Hardy kept
him fawning, begging and crying in alb
iect misery. Then other ruined men
were admitted and a settlement was
arranged on terms that need not be de-
tailed here. Some Of the unfortunates
have not vet recovered. Wellman'S ap-
parent failure was the worst of all, but
TO everybody's surprise he secured credit
somewhere that enabled him to slowly
pick himself up.
The fact is that Daniel Hardy, having
glutted himself with revenge, felt some
thing as near as revulsiOn of feeling as
his hard nature would admit; and within
twenty-four hours Of the scene in Browns
private room he had secretly supplied
the credit that his enenly's house needed.
The Shawnee deal was his first great
operation, and his last Of any kind in
Wall street.
Except in names, this recital is one of
facts. The man and the woman, the
hero and the heroine, still live. Many
men in Wall street today will recognize
them, even under the filmy mask have
givea to their identity.
