nurse their children during the entire year,
and many Others who ought not to, as the
nutriment which they furnish steadily loses IN
richness and power to make firm flesh and
bone and to keep baby well. This is especl-
ally TRUE in summer.
How shall | feed my babyW is, then, the
question of those mothers who cannot nurse
their babies.
.tFeed the little one on lactated food, says
the more experienced mother.
Years and years of splendid results in the
rearing of delicate children on lactated food
have given it It's brilliant reputation among
mothers and physicians. As a nutriinent
and preventive of disease it has been sub
iected to the most trying tests, and has
brought thousands of babies through the
hot summer. sustaining their strength IN the
exhausting diseases peculiar to childhood
Here is the experience of the sweet baby
boy whose portrait is given above. His
mother, Mrs. w. H. P. Caron, who resides at
No. 30 North First street, Meridian, Conn,
writes:-
Il take pleasure in sending you the pic
tlre of our. little Walter. He was a very
sick baby and would not nurse. We tried
everything we could, but he never got well
until a friend recommended lactated food to
us. We gave it to him and he improved
rapidly. This is his second summer and is
very trying to him, as he is cutting teeth,
but in spite of that he is larger than a good
many as old. He has eat nothing but lac
tated food. 1 hope that l may have many
chances to recommend it, for | know of
nothing else that deserves SO much praise as
lactated food"

OUR ABOMINABLB WATER
Greenville Citizens Complain
to the Street and
Water Board.

Messrs. Henry Lembeck, Finance Com
missioner j. J. Detwiller, Library Trus-
tee s. l.. Harvey, Tom Cogan, Adam
Reid and Michael Schultz told the Street
and Water Commissioners at their meet
ing last night what vile abominable
stuff is supplied to the citizens as drink
ing water. Each of these property own-
ers explained how greatly the real es-
tate in Greenville is damaged by IMPURE
drinking water. When out of town peo-
pie come to ask about rents of houses
in the suburbs they are delighted with
the location between the two bays; de-
lighted with the rapid transit of the Con-
solidated Traction Company; but imme-
diately they see and smell the drinking
water they skedaddle as quickly as pos
sible. Consequently those who have in
vested largely in laying out lots n
building pretty houses can find no ten
ants. Why so much money going out
in taxes and nothing coming inin shape
of rents, the Greenville house owners
lot is anything but a happy one. All
these and more reasons why something
should be done with the water were ably
advanced by the delegation. W
The commissioners listened attentively
and even President Macarthur, who, a
few days age declared that the water
was good enough. and he was getting
fat on it, looked as if the subject was
worthy of attention. On motion the mat
ter was referred to the proper committee.
When the .Grenvillians bowed them
e. Banks presented a petition urging
Waldo street. This was also referred.

heads the list of five expert tennis players
who began yesterday an invitation toul ma

other four cracks are w. A. Larned, fresh
from his victories at Southampton; Richard
Stevens of Hoboken. the expert of the base
line games; Malcolm Chace, the Tuxedo
champion, and NJ. F. Goodbody, the Irish
expert. The cotestants will play each other,
matches to be the best three in five sets, the
same as at Newport. As all of these players
are candidates for national honors their
play this week will be their last appearance
in singles before the Newport meeting.
The courts were in excellent condition, and
a fair crowd was on hand when Champion
R. D. Wrenn and w. A. Larned began the
first match of the day. Wrenn has had but
little practice thus far this season, and will
have to put in great work in the next three
weeks to successfully defend his title and
trophy. Larned beat the champion in three
straight sets, and seemed 10 have the best of
the play all around. Wrenn's strongest
point formerly was to play the net, but he
seemed afraid to do so this afternoon, and
generally put up a base-line game. Larned's
victory OF yesterday will encourage his
friends, who believe that he stands an excel
lent chance for first place in the national
event of this year. The score:
