TALKS WITH MOTHERS.-No.3 3.



Every mother wants her baby to thrive,
because Il healthy child is happy child.
The question CT how the baby shall be fed
is demanding the attention, as never before,
not only OF the mothers in the land, but of
ne entire medical profession also, because
1t is now realized how much the health of a
child can be Influenced by proper nutrition
during the years of babyhood. AS the re-
suit Of the improper feeding of the infant,
the vitality of the child is impaired, and he
grows up weak and puny. In these days
when artificial food is being so generally re-
sorted to for in ants, the demand for sub
stitute for mothers milk has brought out
many foods for which great claims are
made. Gustav Mellin, an English chemist,
was the first to discover and combine the
requisite properties necessary for an arti-
fetal food, and with his discovery the
rational feeding of infants commenced.
Mellin' Food is the only perfect substitute
for mothers milk, and it has done more to
make babies strong and healthy than any,
thing else that has ever been invented.
Mellin'S Food possesses all the requisite
heat and flesh producing and bone-fOrming
constituents necessary to give q child
health, vigor and vitality. Infants are ex-
ceedingly fond OF it and thrive upon it when
nothing else can be retained upon the
stomach. If they have been weak, fretful
and troublesome they become happy,
healthy and active; bright eyes, rosy
cheeks, firm muscles and strong consti-
this excellent preparation. Mellin's Food,
being highly nutritious and easily digested,
is also perfectly adapted to the wants of in.

THE CIGARETTE VICE.

The use of cigarettes is not merely
self. In reformatories where the
cure of the opium, alcohol and cigar
cite habits is a business, cigarette
patients are not restricted from smok-
ing cigars or pipes.-The cigarette
works a special evil of it's own which
tobacco in other forms does not affect.
This evil result may be due to drugs,
or to the paper wrappers, or to the
fact that the smoke of cigarettes is
almost always inhaled into the lungs,
while cigar smoke is not. AS to that,
let the experts decide; about the fact
of the effect there is no doubt, and no
dearth of evidence. No other form of
tobacco eats into the will as cigarettes
do. The adult man can carry off
good deal Of poison of one kind or an
other, and his duties being fixed and
his will formed. he is usually able to
make his minor vices subservient to
his more important obligations. And
SO it happens that it is matter of
constant observation IN CLUBS, ana
wherever there are intelligent men
who allow themselves all the creature
indulgences that they dare, that these
experienced persons are constantly
swearing off, cigarettes for longer
Or shorter periods, and smoking CT
CARS instead. The cigarette fetter be-
gins to gall, and they fling it off.
But young boys do not do that. They
have not discretion enough, for one
thing, and, for another, cigars cost too
much for them, and cannot be smok-
ed surreptitiously in a spare moment.
1t is the Internal cheapness of the CT
gazette and it's adaptability for con-
cealment that tempt this school-boy's
caliow intelligence.-Ha rper's Weekly.

Edison is a great lover of practical
jokes, once upon time, when the
photograph was more of a novelty
than at the present time, he hid one
of these machines in grandmother's

One night as a friend was preparing
to get into bed he suddenly heard a
voice exclaim, "Eleven o'clock; one
hour more.''
He crept into bed and lay perfectly
still, frightened out Of his life and
hardly daring to breathe. At mid
night he heard the same voice again
exclam, "Twelve O'Clock; prepare to

This was more than mortal flesh

No one can tell when holly was first
it was certainly at Or soon after the
Christian era. Indeed it may have
been long before, for some of the ira
ditions concerning it have an appear
ance of antiquity about them which
can not be ignored. Thus it is said
that holly is or was a sacred tree, to
destroy which was to insure disease
or disaster. An early legend, ordin
airy tale, runs in this way: A youthful
hunter lost himself in a forest, and
his supplies running out he was in
danger of starving. No game could
he discover, and in the midst of his
distress wild beast, the like of which
he had never seen before, appeared.
Taken by surprise, he seized the bough
of tree, tore it off and prepared to
defend himself with it. 1t CHANGED to
be holly tree, and the moment he
disfgured it he fell to the ground and
was turned into a stone. His brother.
after many months searching, was
informed by friendly fairy of the
mishap that had befallen his brother.
whose body he was told would be
found lying under the bough he had
torn off. A charm was given the
searcher to enable him to restore the
headstrong youth to life, and after a
long journey the task was accomplish
ed, and the two brothers were reunit-
ed.-SeLected.

SCOT water, made from the SCOT of
wood fires, is said to be an excellent
fertilizer of house or outdoor plants.
The SCOT SHOULD be brushed down from
the chimneys with a long handled
brush, gathered into a quart bag and
soaked in rainwater over night. The
water, black as ink, will be ready for
use the next morning. To use about
house plants it should be considerably
diluted. 1t has tendency to bake the
soil and can easily be too strong for
the little amount of earth in window
box or pot. 1t is perfect destroyer
of insects asd worms that sometimes
infest house plants and may be used
in such cases once or twice week
until they disappear.

Make the evenings pleasant, moth
ers, if you wish to keep your hus-
band and children at home. A lively
game, an interesting book read aloud,
or, in musical families, a new song to
be practiced will make an evening
pass pleasantly. A little forethought
during the day, a little pulling of wire
that need not appear, will make the
whole thing easy; and different ways
and means may be provided for max
ing the evening hours pass pleasantly,
and time to be looked forward to
with pleasant anticipations. We Wis
tied once in a large family where it
was the duty of each sister in turn to
provide the evenings occupation, and
there was a pleasant rivalry between
them as to whose evenings should be
the most enjoyable. As natural con-
sequence, the brothers were rarely alb
sent from home.

Never cut or trim the eyebrows.
Their beauty includes delicacy-de
cacy in curve, width and texture.
Trimming them destroys this by caus
ing them to grow coarse, stiff and
wild" To get the welldefned, mar
row arch many beauties pinch the
eyebrows after amounting them with
oil to make the hair glossy. A stray
wiry or gray hair may be removed
with tweezers, but should never be
cut. On the other hand, eyelashes
are cultivated by clipping them once
year. Hairdressers call it topping"
them, and the term is pertinent. Only
the irregular tip ends should be cut,
and this can only be done by another.
Cutting the lashes weakens the eyes.
Remember that.

One of the best emulsions for use in
the greenhouse or window on plants
affected with aphis, scale and mealy-
bug, is prepared by adding one part
of fir tree oil to five parts of kerosene
and diluting this mixture with water,
according to the insect to be fought.
For scale and mealy-bug, use twenty
parts water to one of mixture, syring-
ing it all over the plants infested. For
green and black aphis, use forty parts
water. To produce thorough union
of the oils and water, put them in
pail and mix them we'll with a syringe
for a moment. We have tried this
with the very best results, and have
never had the tenderest plant injured
by it. Some florists who have used
it think it cures and prevents mildew.
1t is preferable to the old kerosene
emulsion in which portion of slight
ly sour milk was used because it can
be prepared with so much less trouble.

LADIES' COLUMN.
WHEN THE HAIR TURNS GRAY.

Concerning gray hair, says a writer
in the Detroit Free Press, there seems
to be no rational theory for change in
the color of the hair, except that of
loss of pigment color and presence of
gaseous matter in the hair shaft. This
fetal causes. Probably among Amer
leans the early age at which the hair
blanches is due largely to nervous
conditions. Mental and physical dis
turbances undoubtedly often affect
the secreting apparatus of the hair,
destroying coloring matter, for his
tory records instances of the change
of hair from dark to white in single
night through the cerebral excite
ment of some great loss, bodily or
mental anguish. Neither can color
ing matter, once entirely destroyed,
be restored.
Do not believe the quacks who pre-
tend to restore gray hair to the youth
full color in any other way than by
dyeing, for science has not yet dis
covered method by which pigment,
once entirely exhausted, can be re-
newed. Dark hair may be bleached,
but no sane person could be deceived
by the dull, lusterless yellow hair SO
treated; neither does dye deceive any
one, and a woman who would look
charming with a head of white hair
kept perfectly clean and fluffy with le-
gitimate treatment, becomes disgust
ing when she resorts to such fragrant
ly artificial means for keeping the
hair dark or blonde.
When ones hair turns gray, atten-
ton should be directed toward keep
ing the complexion delicate and fine
with color, the eyes bright and the
expression animated, for a brilliant
face, framed by snowy hair, has pc
culiar charm if the hair be abundant
and becomingly arranged.
