MANY SICK BABIES.
Food Unified to Conditions Of
June Weather.
Stomachs Overwhelmed By an Indi-
gestible Diet.
Immediate Cause 81 So Much DIasrhoa and
Cholera lniantum.

Every close, lifeless heated spell of
crisis in babies lives.
Hot weather predisposes the child's
digestion to be easily disordered by un-
suitable food But it is always the diet
that is the directly exciting cause Of
cholera infantum. Babies taking their
food heartily and thriving on it are
never seriously affected by the hottest
days or nights.
The whole problem of keeping baby
well during the heated season narrows
itself down to question of a simple.
nutritious. absolutely pure diet. not too
bulky nor difficult forthe child's powers
of digestion. This diet is unquestiOn-
ably lactated food.
Lactated food solves the problem OF
keeping very young children well
nourished and healthy at all seasons.
In looking over my cases of summer
darrhoea for the past few days" says
Dr. Holt. physician to the New York
Infant asylum, II find that in more
than 400 Of these cases the exciting
cause was improper feeding"
Babies often become so weakened by
faulty nutrition during the summer
that they grow hstless hardly hold up
their heads and take little notice of
things aboue tnem. Time and time
again has lactated food been given to
these little pining infants TO the i'm

when fed regularly on lactated food.
No mother with sickly child should
delay putting it on a vigorous diet of
lactated food. 1t means a Strong,
healthy child. in place of a weakling.s
Read this letter from Mrs. f. Lahore

There are all kinds of

nothing has ever been devised
that will equal Chrysty.
Made of aluminium steel, of
the same quality as the best

Chrysty Bread Knife has a
wooden handle, and it has
other advantages.
We have a perfect trousers
creaser that surpasses even a
fiat iron for keeping trousers
free from "knees" and wrink-
les. Nothing bulky about
them, and they will hang out
OF the way IN any closet.
Seventy-five cents a pair.
Aluminium lime and lemon
squeezers are new as to mate
rial, but not in shape; their
superiority is in their cleanli-
ness.
Aluminium collapsible water
cups are light and convenient
for the pocket.
Many fine tables are ruined
by careless people laying light
ed cigars on the edges. The
Pendegrast cigar holder and
ash receiver obviates the dam

Chinese New Year begins on Monday
and will be duly ushered in with the
usual din of bombs, fire crackers and
rockets. Our Celestial friends, how
ever, cannot make any more noise than
was made by the white population at
the commencement of 1897. So we
must not grumble if our sleep is dis
turbed. This IS the period also when
the housekeeper mourns for her cook,
and her husband has to get up and
light the fire, and when the family is
mostly in a state of disorganization
and bad temper. But John is a faith
full creature. He works every DAY of
the year faithfully. A holiday once a
year should not be begrudged him.

keep in touch with the ad-
vanced utensils necessary for
their use, and whatever will
do the most work in given
time is an investment that is
not an expense.
We have anticipated their

minum Cane Knives. The ad-
vantage of usiug this new and
universally adopted metal in
the manufacture of cane
knives can be seen at a glance.

and the George Wosten-
holm make. These two rep
resent the best to be had.
1t is only matter of choice
with the purchaser.
The Green River Butcher
Knives, made by the John
Russell Company, are the best
on the market.
Seymour's Scissors are very
highly tempered and keep

find such a ready sale. We

and incidentally of the works of
Crockett, Barrie and the new Scotch
school.
Life considers that the pathos of the
stories is manufactured. But what
pathos in a story is not. Take Dick
ems, of the past, and Marion Crawford,
of the present, and does any one sup
pose that the pathos in their works
has not been carefully elaborated and
heighten the effect? AS an able artist
paints a picture, so does writer pro-
duce book. To take an example well
known here. Few, if any, have ever
reached the effects in pictures of the
volcano that Tavernier did. Yet anal
Use his work and you will see that it is
by certain mechanical means that he
obtains his effects. Not every one is
skillful enough to use those means,
but they are there nevertheless.
Another charge against McLaren
dialect. Why? Did not Sir. Walter
Scott write in dialect? Take the Anti
quarry and it bristles with it, from Edie
Ochiltree, the beadsman, the Mackle-
backits, the fisher folk, up to Monk
barns, the Antiquary himself. William
Black, of more recent date, also
bristles with Scotch dialect, he de-
votes himself to the reproduction of
the Highland, rather than the Low
land Scotch, as may be noted in the
princess of Thule" where the maid
always speaks in dialect and the Prin-
cess herself has pleasant tang in her
speech, which reminds one of the
rocks and the heather.
However, to leave the kindly Scotch
tongue alone. Does anyone object to
Cables stories because they are writ
ten in the dialect of the Creoles', of
Louisiana? That indication of the soft
speech of the south gives them an adj
ded charm. What would Madame Del
phine or the Grandissimes be if trans
lated into perfect Addisonian Eng
lish? Where also would Joel Chand-
ler's Harris Uncle Remus come in I'M
less we had the dialect of the negro?
Fancy the story of Brer Rabbit and
the Tar Baby in choice Johnsonian.
The same may be said of Miss Wilkins
stories of New England life and E.
Townsend's "Chimmie Fadden." But
this looks very much like breaking "a
butterfly on a wheel. There is no
sense in the charge and there seems
little use in arguing against it.
The works of the new Scotch school
are among the healthiest published. 1t
is far better for young people to be-
come acquainted with such stories as
Crockett's "Men of the Mosshags," Ian
McLaren's "Bonnie Briar Bush and
"Auld Lang Syne," Barrie Little Min
lister" and the window in Thrums,"
than to read the trash of "The
Duchess" the sensationalsm of Miss
Braddon and the hectic luridness and
unreality of Ouida. The Scotch school
set before their readers true view Of
life. They show the beauty and poetry
of the humber orders in the commune
ty and one rises from reading them
with a clearer view of humanity and
the noble aims in life than can ever be
obtained from studying the vagaries
of impossible dukes, duchesses and NIL
lionaires.

If a wife wants to have her
husband think as much of her
as he does of his maternal
parent she must look to the
larder and see that it is pro-
vided with plenty of things for
the inner man. But quantity
in this instance is not the only
essential; quality plays an i'm
portant part in food articles.
You can fill a dish with
peas, but if they are not of
good quality they will remain
full. We are now selling
genuine Petit Pois in one and
two-pound tins that are re-
markably good. ard cheap.
Another delicacy is Pre-
served Mushrooms-new here
and we are selling them to
people who regard a good dim
ner as requisite to happiness
ON this earth. Black English
Mushrooms, and many French
Mushrooms go a long way to-
ward filing a man out around
the vest pockets.
Another trihe worth think
ing about is genuine English
jagged Hare. Where is the
Briton who would not 60 a
long distance for a lunch where
jagged Hare is one Of the
courses?
We have a S ore full of such
things-too mrny varieties to
