cannot contain any source OF contagion. 1t
is perfectly prepared to be pleasing to the
weak infant stomach. 1t quickly makes
solid flesh and bone, and tides sckly babies
over summer days and nights when cholera
infantum and disrrhea threaten the lives of
every poorly nourished child
The greatest reprosch to practical medi-
cine has been the fearful loss of infant lives
at every return of the hot weather. The at
tention of the whole medical world has
been directed to this great subject of prop
er infant feeding, especially during hot
weather.
Under the advice of the professors in the
medical department of the Vermont univer-
sity. more especially thnt of Prof. A. Z.
Grinnell, dean of the university, and DR.. s.
NJ. Roberts, professor of diseases of chill
dren, and under the investigation and direct
supervision of Prof. G. s. Boynton, the
manufacture of lactsted food was begun.
1t has saved thousands of baby lives and
enabled thousands more to grow up strong
and big and blessed with sturdy coDstitu-
tons.
A host of mothers have to thank lactated
food for the Joy of seeing their dropping,
silent, " white-faced little ones turn to bright
eyed, charming babies, that eat and sleep
and grow in way to delight any mothers
heart. Great numbers of such mothers
have written that nothing else would agree
with their children but lactated food.
A trial of less than two weeks will tell its
own story in baby's weight, eyes, checks
ard spirits. Nursing mothers fird lactated
food just adapted to their peculiar needs. 1t
nourishes both mother and child. And this
is what one would expect from knowledge
of its rich, blood-making ingredients; using
pure milk sugar as basis, because it is also
the basis of mothers milk there is added
the richest gluten flour of wheat aud oats.
These are subjected to high steam heat un-
der pressure, and while in constant motion
and perfectly cooked, the extract of the
finest malt barley is added making thus a
partially digested food that i, easily as
simulated by the feeblest stomach.
Inval'ds and aged persons find lactated
food the most grateful to their weak
stomachs Of any nutriment they can take.
Here is the experience Of the sweet baby
girl whose portrait is given above. Her
mother, Mrs. +. 4. Reynolds OF Fair Haven,
VT, writes
"Our little girl is a perfect picture Of
health, having used lactated food since she
was two months old. She has always been
perfectly well and we think it i, largely due
to the food"

GETTING BABY TO SLEEP.
The Cradle Out OF Date. but Grade Songs
Remair-Better Infant Food Brings
sounder Sleep. With Lille Need Of
Rocking.

In the old New England Cabin at the
Midway Plaisance, among the quaint bits
of furniture there was an old-fsshioned
cradle such as busy mothers used to push
with their feet while they hummed soft
lullaby.
The cradle is out of date and the tiny,
lsce-draped crib has taken its place. Cradle
songs remain. No better ones have been
written since mothers hushed their tired
ones TO sleep with "Roek-a-bye, Baby"
and bye, Baby Bunting" but the art of
infant feeding has gone far ahead of the
old ways.
Mothers no longer give sirups to still
babies cries; little or no medicine is now
given, but better food. Lsctsted food is
now known to every mother. In the great
majority of homes in this country and in
Canada this best of infant foods has found
a permanent place.
Nexs to healthy mothers milk it is the
most perfect diet for infants.
Very often it is much superior to the
natural breast milk, because it never be-
comes deficient in nutIitive qualities. 1t

There could not possibly have been better
day for the opening of an agricultural fair
than that of today. The weather was
simply perfect, and, as a result, the G3d
annual exhibition of the Kennebec Agri
cultural Society opened most auspiciously
the receipts being considerably in excess of
those of one year ago. The stock show
was in place at an early hour in the fore
noon and was most credi,able one We
do not believe that any farmers in Maine
have better cattle or take IN re pride in
them than those who exhibit at our county
fair.

PAT EN- rs
Notice to Inventors.

There was never a time in the his
tory of our country when the de-
mand for inventions and improve
ment in the arts and sciences gen
orally was 50 great as now. The
conveniences Of mankind in the
factory and Workshop, the house
hold. on the farm and in official
life, require continual accessions
to the appurtenances and nipple
ments Of each in order to save labor,
time and expense. The political
change in the administration of
government does not effect the pro-
gress of the American inventor,
who being on the alert, and ready
to perceive the existing Deficiencies,
does not permit the affairs of gov
eminent to deter him from quickly
conceiving the remedy to overcome
existing discrepancies. Too great
care cannot be exercised in choos-
ing a competent and skilled attor-
ney to prepare and prosecute an
application for patent. Valuable
interests have been lost and des-
troyed in innumerable instances by
the employment of incompetent
counsel, and especially is this adj
vice applicable to those who adopt
the "No patent, no pay" system.
Inventors who intrust their bus
mess to this class of attorneys do Sc
at eminent risk, as the breadth and
strength Of the patent is never con-
sidered in view of quick endeavor
to get an allowance and obtain the
fee then due.
