Facts About Babies.

IL isn't always the biggest baby
that Is the strongest nor finest, for
firmness OF flesh and bono with o
steady II slow increase in weight and
bulk Is better than any great stature
or weight. OF course children are
built on different models and one can.
not say that baby should weigh
just so much Mt such and such a
time, but some one has gone to the
trouble OF getting some averages with
which mothers may console them.
selves when they have nothing else
to think OF. At birth u boy should
weigh some o. to Z pounds, a girl
somewhat less, or about to 81
pounds. Twins are always OF lower
average weight and size than single
children, although the two together
weigh more than any single baby.
In height boy should measure Mt
birth on 'an average IS to 10 inches;
girl some half an inch less--the
range OF health lying between 16 and
22 inches. The child grows with
rapidity during the first year, faster
than during any other period of the
same length, so that it gains about
inches, measuring when twelve
months old about % inches, its
weight being about 10 pounds.
During the second year it gains only
4 inches on an average, and ) pounds
in weight, reaching n stature OF 81
inches and a weight OF 81 pounds.
But these figures represent only the
average, the extreme ranging between
wide limits. A fact that is seldom
taken into consideration with chill.
dren, with regard to their weight and
plumpness, Is that about their second
year when they are learning to walk,
they become thinner, not because
they deteriorate in health, but
through the increased exercise using
up more Of the tissues forming the
muscles Of the body.-[M milwaukee

A Big inclination,

I was acquainted with a wcll.dis.
posed young gentleman Of largc for.
tune. whose only fault was the habit
OF swearing-such habit that he Of.
ten declared that he would give half
Ills fortune to get rid Of It. This desire
came to the ears Of q Quaker, who
thereupon had IN interview with the
young gentleman, and said:
Il can cure thee of that bad habit"
Whereupon tho youth caught hold Of
the Quaker's hand and gave 1t a hearty
shake, saying:
How can You perform the miracle p
II can tell thee. I have heard that
thou art Just my size: nobody will
know thee; thou shalt come to my
house, put on tho cooked hat, the coat
without buttons, the knee. .brccchcs,
and the shoe-buckles, and thou wilt
find that the strangcness Of the dress
Will have such nm effect on thee when
thou art going to talk that It will re.
strain thee from swearing-as thou
perhaps knowest. my friend, that we
Quakers never swear"
Tho young man cheerfully assentcd
to the proposal, and accompanied the
Quaker to his house, where, after
his clothes, lie took his dc.
parture In the garb Of a Quakc~, ana
went on his way rejoicing. The period
Of the young gentleman's tour elapsed,
and the Quaker. all anxiety, started to
meet him. Having met him. he said:
swell, friend, how hast thee got ON 7"
"Very WELL" replied the young man.
"Hast thou sworn so much with that
dress on thee?"
The young man. rubbing the sleeves
Of his coat, replied:
Certainly not; but felt q great In.
clinatiOn to lie."

Too LIAtC.


In small country village there lived
a certain schOolmistress. She thought
herself and was looked upon as per.
son "abOve the common" In the same
village resided grocer's son, named
Tom. who had fallen In love with the
"schOOlmarm;" but for the life of him
he dared not tell his love to his adored
one. One day he mustered up courage
to lay his case before n ncighbor, a
woman, who advised him to so to the
parsOn at once and put the 'axings''
In for himself and the lady. The young
man did as he was told, and on the
following Sunday the banns were called
over In church. The schoolmistress
was not present, but a neighbor who
was lost no time In telling what she
had heard read In church. The "school.
marm" was of course In a terrible rage,
and said, "Wait until ! see that Toni
Ill give him something he little ex-
poets for his mad pranks!" The fol.
lowing day she met poor Tom In tho
lane-Tom had been told what he
might expect Mt such a mcetlng-and
began to give him the ''length Of her
tongue" Tom. In his fright, could only
blurt out, swell, II You dunnot like

How Cloves Grow.

The small evergreen tree from which
cloves are taken was originally ma
tive OF the Spice Islands, but Is now
cultivated in warm climates in al
parts OF the world. The Glove ol
commerce is the unopened flower ol
the tree. They are quite small, bu,
grow in large clusters among the
branches. After gathering the buds
are smoked by wood fire and dried in
the sun. Both the taste and smell
OF the cloves depend on the quantity
Of oil they contain.
Sometimes the oil is separated from
the cloves before they are sold, and
the odor and taste are in consequence CO
weakened. II you desire to know
something OF the form OF the bud in
the natural state soak a few cloves
for short time in hot water. The
petals OF the flower will soften and
readily unsoll.-lDetroit Free Presa
