Proceedings Of the Legislature.

Proceedings Of the Legislature.
Special to the TINES.
There is to night but five bills on
the House calendar for third reading
and the appropriation bills were re
ported back from the Senate and,
were it not for the amendments to
the appropriation bills, increasing in
every case the estimates made by the
House, an adjournment could be ex
pected on Wednesday next, but it is
hardly possible, under the circum-
stances, to anticipate when the
business will be completed. Two
years ago it took six days to reach a
compromise on the appropriation
bills, and now, with the Houses diff
fering politically, it may take much
longer to effect compromise
The election bill which has been
reported from the Senate committee
retains tie Recorder of Voters, who
is an appointee of the Governor, and
vests him with the right of appoint
ment of judges and clerks of election
but gives to the Circuit Court the
right Of confirmation.
The House leaders declare they
will never consent to the provisions
of the bill, so it is quite probable
that the election law will not be
amended at this session.
The State Bank inspection law
passed the Senate only by the earn
est effort of Senator Ballard. This
bill is solely in the interest of the
depositors and was not favored by a
bank in the State. 1t provides for
inspection three times year or
oftener in the discretion of the Sec
retary of State and Is an added
expense to all banks. but while it

SAVE BABYS LIFE !
Babies Take LaCtate6 Food With
EVidedt Relish.
Safety for Pale, Weak, SiCkly Ba-
bies in Hot Weather.
A Perfect Substitute for Healthy,
Vigorous Mothers Milk.

To the thoughtful parent hot weather
brings the consciousness of increased
care and forethought regarding the diet
of the little ones. 1t is appalling to any
one understanding the subject to see the
carlessness of parents and nurses in the
matter of infant feeding.
With cholera infantum raging as it is
in the East and West this summer, these
facts cannot be put to parents too plain
ly.
This mortality is not necessary evil,
for, as every single writer ON the subject
(from the eminent DR., Routh, to whom
every physician turns for advice, down
to the honest medical student, whose
opinions see light in the popular medi-
cal iournals) agrees. it arises principally
from the improper feeding OF the child
rem.
Watch your baby's actions carefully,
especially at this season OF the'year so
trying to little children. Is he cross,
fretful or peevish? Is he troubled with
constipation, collie or diarrhoea? Is his
sleep short or easily broken? Then his
food diseases, and he is in serious dan
ger of fatal disease.
"Nvl,j can do?" we hear you ask

veal"
The '",t physicians perscribe it, in
telligGuJ mothers recommend 1T and use
it, and babies living on it prove its
worth by their healthy and happy faces
The worry and sadness that it keeps
away is alone sufficient reason for using
lactated food but it is also very econ
omical, costing less than five cents a
quart, when prepared from the larger
sizes. The small costs Only % cents,
and it will be mailed on receipt of price
by the manufacturers, Wells, Richard
son & Co., Burlington, vt. If your
druggist hasn't it in stock, do not let
the sun go down before you have or
dered some. 1t may save your baby's
life.
The mothers milk in summer is affect
ed by the heat, and is often dangerous
for the infant. 1t is much better to
wean the child and put it upon reliable
food that is always the same.
