The Care of Sick Children.

The young. mother who is far from a
physician may remember for her comfort
that child very seldom really requires
medicine. What it needs is what she can
give without danger-proper food, pure
air, cleanliness and rest. Most of the dis
orders of children, particularly of infants,
arise from some arrangement of the diges-
tive tract. The food is not of proper guam
tity or quality. 1t is not assimilated; that
is, taken up by the blood for the nourish-
ment of the tissues, and the child suffers
1t is pale and fretful, throws up its food in
undigested masses and does not thrive as
a healthy child should. The first thing to
be done is to change the food. Add a
tablespoonful of limewater to each six of
food; if this does not succeed, try using
one-fourth cream instead of all milk with
water. Vary the strength of the food by
adding more or less water If still unsuc-
cessful, try some of the artificial foods un-
til one is found that does agree with the
baby.
With older children an error of diet is
very apt to be followed by feverishness and
restlessness. High temperature does not
mean as much with children as with grown
persons. A child may have temperature
of 103 or 104 degs. at night and yet be COM
paratively well in the morning. A simple
enema of soap and water, given with a
syringe such as should be in every htese-
hold, is the safest way of producing a
movement if there is constipation. A child
two years old may have half teaspoonful
of spiced sirup of rhubarb or teaspoon
full of liquid citrate of magnesia, if there Is
reason to think that indigestible food is
the cause of the attack. When this acts
there will probably be an immediate i'm.

PROGRESSIVE HAMMocKiNe.
A Girl Invents a Game on Which Thar
Would Seem to be No Flies.

A Girl Invents a Game on which Thsre
Would Seem to be No Flies.
The young people in one of st. Louis
prettiest suburbs are in a state of feverish
excitement over new game that has been
devised by some of their number It is
called progressive hammocking," and is
so full of golden opportunities in a senti-
mental way that it is destined to become
very popular with the youth of both sexes.
A bright young girl. to whom, with sew
eral others, is due the credit of having
given this new diversion to the world, thus
describes it:
"You see, each girl is provided with a
hammock in which she reclines grace
fully or ungracefully, according to the ex-
tent of her experience in hummocking,
during vhe game. The hammocks are
hung far enough apart so that no one can
see or hear her neighbors, and above each
is suspended Chinese lantern with a
number on it; but these, Of course, will be
blown out early in the proceedings.
"a chaperon is required-preferably
two-a lady and a gentleman. To start
the game the boys draw numbers from a
hat, and then each hunts up the ham
mock which corresponds to the number
drawn. At a given signal he begins to
tell the girl in it love story. By the
rules the stories must be impersonal.
''But of course they won't be. That"
she added, with laugh, ''is a matter that
lies with the story teller and his con-
science. Well, at the end of fifteen min
utes the chaperon beats tomtom and
the boys move up one hammock, and each
tells another story to new listener. The
stories, mind you, must all be different
that is, one cannot tell the same story to
two girls"
"And they must all be love stories2"
asked the reporter.
Certainly. Oh, it's more fun. The
boys out there are securing the town for
short love stories. Well, when the rounds
have been made and each of the six, say,
has told six amorous tales to six tender
maidens a secret ballot is taken, the girls
voting for the best story teller and the boys
for the best listener. That's where the
real funny part comes in, for of course
each girl will vote for the man she likes
best, and vice versa; hence the chaperon
will become the sacred repository of one
half dozen true love tales"
"What about the prizes?"
"There will be six first prizes on each
side and no boobies" and the fair schemer
laughed heartily at the success of her
efforts to devise something new and start
ling in the way of summer amusement

Dangerous Places in the Home

To what end are all of our we'll ordered

violated, where colors blend by a law of

uncanny places Of the home, sending out

the first condition of good housekeeping,
and this implies cleanliness which is
akin to godliness. And this should per-
