How A Bright Elevator Boy Who I'm
derstood Human Nature Helped
Out Matters.
Fannie Proctor was very popular in
the family hotel, and Will Branford or
Willie, as many styled him, was en-
Wed.
It seemed almost certain that Willie
had captured the girl. Mrs. Williams
and Mrs. Cole thought so, and, as they
enjoyed unlimited opportunities to OBJ
serve what was going on at the hotel,
their joint opinion carried weight
with it.
These estimable women were child
less and burdened with leisure. 1t was
but natural that to relieve the tedium
of hotel life they should spend much
of their time in the first floor parlor,
discussing their neighbors within the
wallsand gathering information such as
satisfies a motherly, or, perhaps, a
sisterly curiosity. They knew how to
worm secrets out of the pleasant blonde
who oficiated as clerk. Whatever
happened in the lobby and parlor came
under their placid observation. They
had an indirect way of asking ques-
tions, and all information coming to
either was shared without reserve.
These two, putting this and that to-
gether, viewing one circumstance in
the light of another and basing opin-
ions upon their own knowledge of how
matrlmony is approached, concluded
that Fannie Proctor would become the
wife of Willie Branford.
Having settled comfortably into this
belief they were amazed to learn that
Fannie had accepted Al Maynard, q

first clothes usually re-. He wears
flannel skirts and a muslin or calico
dress made princess style, and open in
the back. These, with his napkin, are
all that he will need during the sum-
mer. When he wore bandages they
we're of flannel as soft and fine as could
be procured.
During the first few weeks of his
life, the room in which he stayed was
kept at an even temperature 900 Fah.)
He was kept as quiet as possible, and
not trotted over the floor, nor jolted
I'D and down to amuse him. Such a
course will make the most quiet baby
nervous and wakeful. He was accus
toned from the first to drinking cool,
fresh water; only two or three spoon
fuls were giving at a time, and the
quantity gradually increased as he
grows older.
He takes a bath every worning, and
the little body is dried with a soft
towel; then after he is dressed, he takes
a long refreshing sleep. A great deal
of sleep is necessary for children, and
they will soon learn to take their nap
at a certain hour each day, if one lie
careful to begin right.

WORK, A T AND PRAY.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
If we yer expect to gain the victory,
we will have to go to work.
The trouble is, there are so many peo-
pie who are sound asleep, and how are
we going to wake them9 I think THE
PROGRESSIVE FARMER, isagreat waken-
ing paper. If We could arouse them
enough to think an take in considera-
ton some things that has been pub
lished in The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
that they would awaken to a sense of
their duty. I would ask you as a
friend to open your eyes and read the
truth before it is everlastingly and
eternally too late. 1 cant see why the
people in an enlightened land have
been in the dark so long. If more
would leave off the novels and read
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER, times would
be better. We have been drifting some
time, though I thing there is a turning
point ahead and if we will put our
shoulder to the wheel and push on the
times will roll on. There is great
work to be done and the sooner we go
to work the sooner it will be accom-
plished.
There are thousands of homes
destitute, thousands of homes that
once was beautiful, pleasant and com
Portable, 10Y deprived of all the bless
ings oflife. And why is this? Did God
intend it, No. Did He intend that we
should be brought down to shame as
We area 1 can safely say no. Who or
what is at the head9 Watch! there is
a thief somewhere. Mothers it is our
duty to watch, work and do all we can
for our children and for the country.
Have we once stopped to think where
we are drifting too, and if we sleep on
probably we will wake up in eternity.
That awful fate, may the Lord help US
to watch, work and pray before it is
too late.
There is a work for US all to do. We
help our companions in domestic
affairs and why not in political, as
well?
Let us help sustain our homes. There
are so, 900 homes to be supplied with
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER and I hope
to be one in helping to supply them.
I will do all l can for the people. AS
this is my first letter to the paper 1
hopei it will be published.

CARE OF CHILDREN's TEETH.
L. Y. SURRATT

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
With a healthy child there are only
two rules to be obeyed to insure good
teeth.
One, see that they are temperate in
their diet; and the other, give them a
thorough cleaning when it is needed.
To be temperate, we would say,
it is not necessary to have the little
child cry for food which we withhold,
but just not be constantly tempting
the appetite.
1t has been proven that it is not
necessary to feed even a child of one
year oftener than atmeal times. Give
them a good meal and not offer them
food until the meal time again. They
will be healthier, and eat a good meal
every time. What we mean by a good
meal is, sometimes, not more than a
half biscuit and cup of tea, next time
they may eat two or the meal may be
vegetables, and if they are hungry
they will eat of them, and they are one
of the most valuable of foods to insure
good, free growth. If they are tempted
constantly with the -four bread, and
sweets, which are both admirable for
the childs growth, but must not be
used altogether, they will refuse the
vegetables, and sickness will follow.
Many a mother has seen the child
eat only a small quantity, and fearing
it may be suffering for food offers it
again in an hour, and the little ones
health is impaired by this constant
eating. It may be remembered, if
good food is offered the child three
times a day, and it does not flourish,
there is some other cause.

Where do we learn these things9 By
proving the good there is in fasting.
Does not our Savior say, if we fast
In secret our Father will reward us
openly. What does openly mean7
That which IS seen. And a smoother
skin, cleaner teeth, better health is the
result. y
10 the cleaning: If we go to the
Dentist for advice he will often tell us
they should be cleaned before and after
every meal, now that would be six
times daily, and the poor child will see
thai it is a heavy task, and m he can
scarcely perform, and he looks around
and q g SO many imperfect teeth, and
if they are to be saved only at that
rate, they are doomed already, and
he becomes discouraged A child will
often do a thing willingly if he can see
the need.
Our command is, whatsoever thy
hand fndeth to do, do with thy
might" This means when we see the
need, and if we do it with our might it
will be well done.
Where one is Incorporate IN his diet,
food sours on his stomach, rises to the
teeth, and of all agents most rapid to
the destruction of the teeth, it is acids.
Dentist whom we do not mean to
underrate, for they are doing a great
work, have proven this. A tooth will,
when put in acids come to be a mere
pulp, the enamel is eaten up entirely.
Before the teeth make their ap-
p~earance, the gums should be washed
and rubbed often, it will assist the
teeth in coming through.
There are many substances that are
good for cleaning the teeth. SCOT,
ashes and soda all counteract acids,
and used moderately, are an advant-
age.
Prepared chalk, which may be had
from the druggist for a small price, is
perhaps one of the best and pleas
ant of all substances to clean with.
Little children become accustomed to
chalk used, and cry for it.
Some fear the grit in many sub
stances, ana it is injurious used ex-
cessively but if they know the truth
concerning it they would fear the acid
much more. A dentist can scarcely
make an impression upon the enamel
with a sharp piece Or steel. Another
necessary article for the cleaning is a
piece of waxed thread, silk is best, but
any soft, and slightly twisted cotton
thread will answer.
The best things are in reach of the
poor.
1t is so pretty and pleasant to have
the little ones teeth white like pearls,
and it does not consume more than
five minutes time, and that once a
week, and yet many mothers will spend
that time in useless harmful talk, and
say I haven't time; and then strain
themselves to give them too much
food, and too many clothes. Oh!
mothers, why will you let the little
teeth goa
OF all parts of the body this is most
neglected. The first set of teeth serve
the child at the most important, stage
of its growth, and the beauty, and
especially the regularity of the perma-
nent set depends upon this.
When it is seen that the teeth are
going, the fond parent will give out
many dollars to have them saved.
They can be helped but the permanent
weakening is beyond repair.
Then see that the little children's
teeth are taken care of. Your work
will be appreciated some day.
