The American League of Professional

games under association rules in six of
the larger Eastern cities The gentle

the Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday. All

Committee. The schedule will be ar

A form of contract was adopted, and
it was also decided to have a distinguish
ing uniform. When at home a club will
wear a white uniform with black stock
ings. Away from home the suit worn
will be black in color. or some other
dark shade with white stockings.
A number of the League ball players
have signified a desire to play the game,
but it is not likely that the first season
will see many of them in the ranks. The
philadelphia and Washington clubs have
aEeady made contracts. with a few play
ers. and full teams will probably be Sc
cured in a short time. The promoters of
the scheme are very enthusiastic over
the prospects for success.

MAKING DEAD MEN BREATHE

Many methods of restoring the apparently
dead have lately been advocated, but the
most original plan is that inaugurated by
DR.. De Baum. DR.. De Baun took it upon
himself to state that if a man died simply
for want of breath there isl good reason
why he should not live, and the medico pro-
ceeded to prove his assertions. He passed a
small rubber tube through the nose OF an ap-
parently dead infant andd down into thethroat.
Closing the mouth. he forced air through the
tube from a rubber bag, initiating the lungs
He then released the pressure from the
mouth and found. as he expected. that the
elasticity of the muscles of the chest caused
immediate contraction of the lungs, forming
a complete respiration. This is said to have
been kept UP, for forty-fve minutes, at the
end of which time natural respiration was
restored and the life of the child was saved.
The success of this experiment induced DR..
De Baum to make further tests, and he is re
ported to have discovered that animation
may. often be restored by this means within
fifteen minutes.

OH, the BABIES!
LIS Died in Boston
in a Week.
Cholera Infantum Is
Raging Now.
Lacfatsd Food Should Be
Fed 10 the Little Ones.
August a Critical Time
for Thousands.
Every Mistake in Diet Must
be Avoided.

The death rate goes up with a jump.
There were almost a hundre cases of
mortality due to cholera infantum alone
in Boston during the last week, says the
Herald" of that city.
One hundred n se~venty-fve babies
died from this and similar, causes.
h fearful jump in the infant death
rate that comes in August is due 10 I'M
proper feeding during hot weather.
In thousands OF homes where love and
watchfulness seem to have surrounded
baby with every safeguard, these two
conditions that lead to cholera infantum
often exist-improper diet and POSSIBLE
ii. OF c~ontagion in food.
These causes are p~reventable, and ev-
cry death from an intestinal disorder
shows either neglect or ignorance On the
part of the parents.
There is no reason today why baby
should not receive proper nourishment,
and be kept absolutely free from any
possibility of c~ontagion.
Lactated food is always o~btainable.
Physicians ard mothers who have
brought up a family of children know
how nutritious, how easily digested,
and how absolutely pure lactated food
is, and how eagerly it is taken by chill
dren that cannot take other nourish-
ment. Lactated food saves babies lives.
The diet of a child from six months
to three years old should be as care
fully regulated as in the few weeks OF
it's life. And during hot weather, es-
pecially, the first symptom of diarrhea
should cause ~redoubled watchfullnes.
Children who are evidently not thriving,
who show a lack of energy, who are be
coming l~istless, %fretful, thin and weak
must quickly gain strength, or the slight
attack of diarrhea that a strong child
readily overcomes will prove fatal.
There is always a chance of slight mis-.
takes in feeding baby, and in hot wealth.
err such errors often result in cholera in
f~anturn, in case baby is not strong and
abundently nourished.
Babies properly fed on lactated food
| never succomb to cholera infantnml
The experience OF hundreds of physi.
clans, public Institutions, and thousands
of mothers prove hat lactated food is
the safest article that can be used as the
diet of young children during the no
months.
Mothers who have never used lactatet
food should remember that it is so in
expensive as to be within the reach o.
! the humblest home. Enough meals car
be made from a dollar package to las
nearly four weeks. The food thus pre-
, pareG from plain directions on each pacl
| age costs less than five cents a quart
and lactated food saves babies lives.
