Training Baby's Ear s.
FROM tho Washington Post.


The day for the ear that stands at right
angles to the head is over. There's been a
clever little arrangement patented for cor
recting the tendency some babies ears have
to stand out. 1t is olose~fitting cap made
of white tape that holds the ears close ia
the head and ties under the chin. IL Is
really merely the framework OF a cap, and
80 Is less troublesome and less heating than
n muslin cap would be, and can be worn
day and night. There are few less pardoua.
BILE dishgurements than outbranchlng ears,
aud they are less often the result Of a nat
ural tendency than Of the careless handling
OF a baby.
Few mothers and fewer nurses notice
when they lay a baby down whether the
soft little ear is crumpled under or lying
close back to the head, aud they rarely take
the trouble when they hold a baby to soc
that it's ears are in the natural position, but
will hold 1t for the longest time with its
head pressed against their bosom and the
ear turned forward instead Of back "As
the twig is bent the tree is inclinedn appler
with as much force to the physical as TO the
moral growth of a child. Babies, when
nursed constantly by the one person, often
suffer from being always carried on the
same arm and in the same position.
