The Diet Invariably Used in Most
Careful Homes.
Children Take Lactated Food
Eagerly and Retain It.

Only by the most judicious feeding
can children be saved from intestinal
disorders that now lie in wait for
every enieebled infant.
Children should not stop growing
and steadily increase in weight dur
ing the summer months. ANY de-
cline in strength, actively and high
spirits at such times should be even
more quickly observed and remedied
than at any other season. Any sign
of let-up in the healthy nourishment
OF the child should be met with lacta-
ted food.
The carefully studied composition
of this perfect infant diet, so accur-
ately adapted to the needs of grow
ing children, makes it easy to induce
them to take abundant food OF a
highly nourlshing quality and Of
absolutel ~ assured purity. Babies fed
on diet OF lactated TODD lose that
pinched look almost Immediately the
prouse perspirlng that usuallyaccom-
panles weakness ceases; their sleep
becomes resttul, and their pale cheeks
and white lips get full and ruddy.
All this change will be due to the
simple effect OF that richer, completer
and more satisfying diet OF lactated
food.
At the beginning of the summer the
physicians give warning that the
utmost care must be taken to use
pure food for children. That this
emphatic warning does not reach
every city and town in this state is
evident from the high infantile death
rate. But in those places where the
newspapers have published the dis
cussions that are now going on re-
garding proper infant feeding in
summer, large quantities of lactated
food are used. The result is, stats
tics show, that the fewer deaths
occur in those towns and cities where
the larger amount of lactated foods
used.
Comparisons of this sort are abso-
lutely convincing.
June is a fatal month for the little
ones and without the utmost care
the local physicians say that the
dreadful mortality and increasing
amount OF sickness among children
will continue.
The one safe plan is to feed infants
On lactated food
Physicians say that in every case
OF cholera infantum the child is i'm
properly fed and nourished, and
hence the disease.
ut is absolutely certain" says
physician, in one OF the medical
journals, speaking of the alarming
summer mortality" that. the cause of
TINS high rate among inlauts is in
DIGESTION"
Thousands of physicians prescribe
Iactated food for their little patients,
at the beginning of the summer, with
the tuIl assurance that the dread
disease is not likely to appear in that
family.
1t must be borne in mind that lac.
lated food is so inexpensive that it is
within the reach OF every one. One
hundred and fifty meals can be made
from dollar package of the food,
and prepared tor use it costs less than
I'VE cents quart.
Mothers must remember that
'holera infantum can be more easily
prevented than cured. Feed the
oaby pure lactated food, and keep
the child well and strong.

pletely vindicated the literary integrity
of Galland. who was long believed to
have himself invented number Of the
tales in Lies Mile ct Une Nuts. and
deliberately foisted them on the public
as genuine Arabian compositions. AS
those tales-"Aladdin, "An Baba,
"Prince Ahmed" the "Envious Sis
ters." etc.-are among the most fasoi-
mating in the whole of that famous story
book, this was certainly paying a very
high compliment to the great oriental
lists inventive genius, if it did impugn
his honesty.
Some candid scholars there were,
however. who strongly maintained that,
though those narratives were not to be
found in any Arabic text of "Elf Layla
wa LayIa," Galland must have taken
them down from the recitals of profes-
sional story tellers in the Levant.
But the question was finally settled
when NJ. Gutenberg discovered them in
manuscript copy of 1.-The Nights, "
which had been recently acquired for
the national library at Paris, and pub

Aladdin and his lamp, together with q

Indeed it required all her skill and

According to their plans, Jack Win
grow was to appoint himself as guard
upon that particular night
Only one man was needed, ut any
time, to act as such, for the cabin was
SO strongly built that an entrance could
scarcely be effected by force even if un-
defended.
But with n half score stout fellows
at hand they could, as they thought,
effectually defy any force that might be
brought against them.
Mabel was to arrive about midnight
and rap lightly upon the door, Wingrow
would open, and then, mounting their
steeds, they were to leave the cabin to
care for itself until their fight was dis
covered.
The appointed night came at length.

Mabel and George, leading their five
companions, fully armed and resolved
to conquer at all risks, rode out from
the settlement and proceeded toward the
outlaw stronghold.

Work. there is work to be done.
A whole days work in q day,
From the rising sun TO the setting sun
Work for all who may.
And the prayer OF the working hand
Is the prayer of the working head,
The clamorous prayer of hungry land
"Give us our daily bread"
Fame, there is fame to be won,
A name that stands for a name,
The prize when the race shall be run
And the honors a victor may claim.
Gold and better than gold
Power and the worlds good will
And better than all thousandfold-
An honest conscience still.
To suffer and know no shame,
To conquer and leave no ban,
To live as giving, through praise and blame
Assurance of n man

local conditions prevent any improve
ment, but in its entirety the country
shows marked advance. The evidence
is seen in increased clearings, a rise in
price in many commodities, general
increase in wages in the manufacturing
industries which are affected by adj
yanced prices of their product, increas-
ed loans by the New York banks and
increased railway earnings. 1t Is no.
ticeable fact that all this improvement
followed the advance in silver from so
to 81 cents per ounce. It did not pre-
cede the advance but followed it, and
there are many who consider that it is
all the result of a rise in the price of
silver. At any rate, the Improvement

can see where it will stop. The opinion
