OH, The BABIES!.
IT'S Died in Boston in
a Week.
Cholera Infantum Is
Raging Now.
Lactated Food Should Be
Fed to Little Ones.
August a Critical Time for
Thousands.
Every Mistake in Diet Must Be
Avoided.

The death rate goes up with jump.
There were almost a hundred cases Of
mortality due to cholera infantum alone
in Boston during the last week, says the
Herald OF that city.
One hundred aud seventy i've babies
died from this and similar causes.
The fearful jump in the infant death
rate that comes in August is due 10 i'm.
proper feeding during hot weather
Ia thousands of homes where love and
watchfulness seem TO have surrounded
baby with every safeguard, these two
conditions that lead TO cholera linfantum
often exist--improper diet and possibility
Of .contsgion in food.
There causes are preventable, and
every death from intestinal disorder
shows neglect or ignorance on the part
of parents
These is no reason to day why baby
should not receive proper nourishment,
and be kept absolutely free OF any possi-
bility of contsgion.
Lactated food is always obtalnsble
Physicians and mothers who have
brought up a family of children know
how nutritious, how easily digested, and
hoW absolutely pure lactated food is,
aud how eagerly it is taken by children
that cannot take other nourishment.
Lacteted food saves babies lives.
The diet Of child from six months to
three years old should be- as carefully
regulated as In the first weeks Of it's life.
Aud during hot weather, especially, the
first symptom OF diarrhea should cause
redoubled watchfulness Children who
are evidently not thriving, who show a
lack Of energy, who are becoming list
less, fretiul, thin and weak, must
quickly gain strength, OF the slight at e
tack of diarrhea that strong child
readily oveIcomes viii prove fatal
There is always q chance of slight mis-
takes ia feeding baby, and in hot weather
such errors often result in cholera in
fantum, In case baby is not strong aud
abundantly nourished.
Babies properly fed on lactated food
never suacumb to cholera infantum
The experience OF hundreds OF physi
clans, public institutions. and thousands
OF mothers prove that lactsted food il
the safest article that can be used AS the
diet of young children during the no
months
Mothers who have never used lactateC
food should remember that it is so In
expensive as to be within the reach o
the,humblest home Enough meals can b,
made from dollar package to last nesrl,
four weeks. The food thus prepared
from plain directions on each packag,
costs less than five cents a quart, an,
lactated food saves babies lives

DEEPENING OF The DELAWARE.

Not over a Million aud HAIR Dollars
would BE Required to DIG IL Out All
the Way TO Sea.
In long story on the proposed deepen.
ing Of the Delaware river, the Philadol-
phia Record of TO day says:
The recent grounding Of several deep
draught steamships at shoal places in
the Delaware river and bay has started
an agitation in shipping and COM
mercal circles looking to sys-
tematic improvement OF the Della
ware channel by making 10 OF q
depth, from Philadelphia TO the sea,
sufficient tocarry with ease the largest
vessels afoat.
Appropriations we're expended IN dredg
ing on the various bars aud shoal places
and In removing rock at Schooner Ledge
previous to 1885, so as to give a channel
800 to 400 feet wide aud "a feet deep at
low water below Philadelphia, and from
G 10 II feet deep between Trenton and
this city These improvements were in
progress prior TO 1885 at the following
named points, beginning up the river aud
coming southwark. PereWig shoal, Bor-
dentown, kinkora bar, Five Mile Point
bar, petty's Island bar, Milllln bar,
Schooner Ledge Cherry Island Flats and
Bulkhead bar On those places about
81. GOO. 600 was spent.
United States engineers recommended
in 1885 the permanent Improvement Of
the river between Philadelphia aud the
sea, whereby a channel 600 feet wide and
carrying 90 feet OF water at low water
was to be furnished at an estimated cost
OF 81 500. 600 These channel Dimensions
were to be obtained by dixes, dredging
and the removal Of rock at Schooner
Ledge
Upon this project about $3.50 600 has
been appropriated and expended al
Fishers Point, Miflin Bar Cherry Island
Flats, Bulkhesd Bar and Dan Baker
shoals The work at ail these places,
except Fishers Point. Is still unfinished
and consequently the Improvement OBJ
tanned is only partial.
The Delaware river has been very care
fully studied by the United States en-
/ gineers. and with proper appropriations
for the work there Is no reason TO doubt
that deep and wide channel could b'
furnished st an early date That 10 Il
