Now Comes the Summer Baby

AT this season the health of the baby
becomes a matter of much care and
should engage the most intelligent
thought of every mother. for as the
warm weather approaches it will be SUBJ
ject to many ailments which a cooler
atmosphere has kept at a distance for
many months. A well-known physician
was recently discussing the subject with
well-meaning but flighty young
mother and expressed himself thus
Just leave him alone. Don't worry his
temper into a passion and his nerves
into fiddlestrings by fussing. Have plain
clothes-no ruffies and laces that will
have to be changed four times day. If
he belonged to me he would have a
Bingham gown and a sunbonnet and be
turned loose in the garden. there to stay
until the sun got too hot or meal or
nap time came around. Have him sleep
on hair mattress and hair pillow-no
feathers or elder down to make him a
good subject for pneumonia and sore
throat, Group and fever. Don't let every
woman in the hotel kiss him. Don
wheel him around in his carriage all day
Let him dig and get close to Mother
Earth and don't think he will be quite

The Franking Privilege

The franking privilege is a right en-.

letters and packages by mail free. The
privilege belonged TO the members OF
British parliament from about 1860 till
1S40, and, owing to the high rate of post
age, was greatly abused. 1t was abol-
ished on the establishment of penny
postage. III America it was first grant
ed by congress III 1776 to private soldiers
actually in service, and was gradually
extended to senators, members of con-
gress. secretaries. bureau officers, post
masters, delegates, etc The matter
thus franked covered not only letters and
newspapers. but also public documents

privilege bsing practically unlimited
Various partial re forms were, from time
to time, attempted by legislation, and on
January 81. 1873, an act was passed ell

BY the act of March 3, 1875. the frank

stored to members of the existing con-

Several officials of the Santa Fe sys-

holder in the Santa Fe and a director as
well. With him was Mr. Gleed, also a
director.

How the Plump Little Queen Gives
Her Honors

Her Majesty, being now ready to re-
ceive us, we were ushered into her pres
ence one at time. My turn was the
twelfth; hence one of my friends has
dubbed me the Twelfth Knight. The
equerry took me to the door of the apart
ment and then left me. 1t was a lofty
room, but not very large being per-
haps forty feet long and of correspond
ing width. The Queen was seated on a
very low seat at the end of the apart
meht opposite the door; behind her the
ladies-in-waiting were arranged in a
semicircle, some of the princesses being
on her left, and the lords in waiting and
the Duke of York on her right hand.
On entering l gave my best bow"
and, advancing few steps, stopped.
and bowed again, when l was intro
duced to Her Majesty (my name being
pronounced wrongly) another bow on
closely approaching her, and then drop
ping on my left knee, 1 extended the
right hand, back uppermost-for the

palms. The Queen then laid her right
hand-a very little plump one-upon

no good reason why the attempt should
not be made, especially in volcanic re-
