TALKS WITH MoTHERs.-No. Q,



Much is written at the present day about
the care and feeding of infants by people
whose only capability for dealing with the
subject is a fertile brain, and whose only
aim is to appear in print; every mother
knows how unsatisfactory and fallacious
such advice is when she attempts to follow
1t. How to feed the baby is the greatest
problem met with in the happy state of
motherhood, and upon its solution depends
the health, the happiness and the life of the
child. II the mother is able to nurse her
child, the question OF feeding Is practically
settled; II she is not, she should be guided
by those who have had successful expert
ence in feeding babies and not allow herself
to experiment with different foods. There
are scores Of artificial foods offered for sale
but the best is none too good for the baby.
Eminent authorities who have thoroughly
Investigated the subject OF infant feeding,
and scientists who have Analysed infant
foods, unite in pronouncing Mellin's Food
to be the only perfect substitute for mother
strengthening; the weakest stomach will
retain and digest 1t, and the puniest child
will thrive upon 1t beyond the mothers
fondest expectations.
For convalescents, consumptives, dyspep-
tics and the aged, Mellin's Food is also OF
incalculable value. 1t is food, not medi-
cine, and the system receives the nourish-
mentit demands for its daily needs. For
those severely ill Mellin's Food will sustain
the falling strength and promote a speedy
recovery when convalescence has been
established.

Education Based on Child Study.

In order to make it possible that the
parent, the teacher, the physician, the
minister, the merchant, may know how
to treat the child, it is necessary that
the child be studied, analyzed-cata-
logued, one might say. 1t seems to me
that the best way to do this is to train
young men and young women in our
colleges and schools In the study Of the
child, and so send oOt number of peo-
pie into the various walks of life who
can get Unto" the life of the child. If
this study is scientifically and properly
carried on, there is no doubt in my
mind but that it will revolutionize all
the present methods of approach to the
child. predict that some of my read
ers will live long enough to wonder how
1t was possible for colleges and univer-
sites to have existed so long, and to
have differentiated SO many departments
of study, and yet to have waited almost
till the beginning of the twentieth CEN
fury to create a department of study
which is-shall / say worth more than
all the others put together2 They will
live to see the day when the science of
the child will have taught the world
more in so years about the child than
the world learned during the preceding
5, 900 years.-Forum.

Two Safe Profeaaiona.

A writer of verse not wholly unknown
to fame rejoices in the possession of a
charming little country place not many
miles from the metropolis, the lawns of
which are carefully looked after by a
clever young Irishman. 1t 80 happened
that during the business depression OF
last summer the young Irishman's
brother was thrown out of employment
by the shutting down of the mills which
were the chief industry of the town,
and John, the poets gardener, was very
much overcome at the prospect of hay
Ing to support his fraternal relative
through the winter. ,.....
His employer had frequently asked
after the brothers. health and encour-
aged his gardener to confide his woes
in him, believing that sympathy begets
good service, and recently John said, in
response to one of these inquiries:
"He's shtill out NV worruk, sorr.
