known among physicians, was one of
the first to publicly recommend the
food. DR.. J. Lewis Smith, perhaps the
best authority in the country on chill
dren's diseases, professor in Bellevue
Hospital College, New York, commends
It's use. There are hundreds of physic-
ians in New England, says the Boston
Journal, who prescribe lactated food
invariably as the nearest approach to
healthy mothers milk, and as a rich
baby food that builds up the strength
and bodies of young children and in
valids.
Most mothers are obliged to shorten
the nursing period. The long exacting
duty is far beyond their strength.
Whereas healthy mothers milk is un-
questionably the best infant food. it
becomes the source of mischief as soon
as 1t grows weak, watery and lacking
in the power of feeding.
Toward the close of the nursing
period, or when nursing is protracted
through the entire hot summer, few
mothers are able to nurse their grow
ing babies as they ought. 1t is rare
that the breast milk does not show a
decided falling off in richness. Infants
fed at the breast on such milk, insult
lCieHt III qudllty ana amount, soon
show the effect in colicky attacks and
in diminished growth from week to
week. Their dropping heads are con-
| tinually moist. and a panied, drawn
| expression-the sign of weakness, often
| steals over their faces.
No mother can be long in doubt about
what to do.
The food must be changed to a rich,
safe diet of lactated food. Parents
sometimes make the mistake of en-
ploying cows milk without personal
| knowledge of its fitness for babys
| food trouble ensues in many cases,
Diarrhoea and cholera infantum re-
suit from just such ill-advised substi-
tutes. Fully one-half the infant deaths
are caused by improper feeding.
When breast milk Is insufficient, or
the mother not well, lactated food may
be absolutely relied on to take the
| place of vigorous mothers milk.
1t is indorsed by the best physicians,
by nurses and by happy, grateful
mothers in every town and village in
the land.

CIVIL DEATH.
A Question Which May Come Up tc
Bother Courts and Enrich LAWYERS,

From the Buffalo Courier.
The fact that in this city a woman
who was married few years ago re-
Gently contracted a second legal mar
riage, though the first husband was
alive, and the ties of marriage had not
been severed by judicial decree of
divorce, has called public attention to
not generally known popularity of
the law.
The statutes of New York provide
that the penalty of life imprisonment
shall involve civil death for the felon
sentenced to it. This means that he
shall be deprived of his civil rights,
particularly property rights and the
rights resulting from family relations,
as if he were actually dead. Civil
death takes from the person upon
whom this punishment has been in
flicted all that he owned and transfers
1t to those who would have received 1t
If he had died before his conviction. It
affects his contract rights in the same
manner as physical death. He can
not, in this legal condition, become an
heir or obtain property by bequest. The
law deprives him of the legal rights of
a parent. If he has a wife she may
COIlSlueT HeT ItSdlly ulSSOlNeu,
as if he were dead. and contract an
other marriage.
Civil death was known to the Roman
law, and this term, according to Black
stone, was applied to certain legal con-.
dtions in England. 1t is also known
to the French law and to the statutes
of a number Of our states. But there
are some doubts about the exact scope
and legal effects of the penalty. A life
convict may be pardoned. That would
certainly not disturb or in any way
affect property rights or new marriage
relations that had been established as
a consequence of the civil death. But
could not the wife of a pardoned life
convict, in case she had not contracted
another marriage, claim the legal rights
connected with the marriage relation?
1t is believed that this question must
be answered in the affirmative, and II
would therefore appear that the ex-
convict, though he was civilly dead
during the term of his imprisonment,
is still bound by his former relations
II he has not been released therefrom
by an act of his own doing.
1t would seem that the law in a case
like the one to which reference was
made ought to require a judicial dis
solution Of the former marriage before
it authorizes the wife or the husband
Of person sentenced to life imprison-
ment to contract a new marriage.

Of the institution is founded upon the

the conservatory is to music and art
what the college is to literature and

a preparatory training Is necessary to

known in Scranton, where he has many
friends who will rejoice that his mag
nificent voice has been recognized in
metropolitan musical circles in a way
that will prove remunerative.

Rosenthal, the great Roumanian
pianist, whose phenominal success last
season was so suddenly interrupted by
his serious illness, which forced him to
take an involuntary rest Of almost a
year, has entirely recovered, and Is
now in Gastein the charming water
ing place in the Tyrol, preparing to
resume his American tour in the mid
die Of November He will play four
times in New York and then make an
extended tour through the United

heard in all the large cities, such as
Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chi
cago, Washington, Cincinnati, Cleve-
land, Detroit, Toledo, st. Louis, st.
Paul, Minneapolis and the Pacific
coast. Judging from the sensation he
created last year, there is no doubt
but that the great artist will again
be the reigning musical success OF the
season.

The following is from st. Lukes
Churchman for August: 1--WE have
this month to add another large item
to the already long roll of the good
works of the Womans Guild of St.
Luke's. The ladies are having the
church tiled by Mr.. w. A. Gray, of this
city. All the aisles. the back of the
church and the front up to the chancel
steps will be laid with beautiful and
durable tiles. The only point against
tiling is the light clicking noise made
in walking over it, but to that one soon
grows accustomed. In it's favor we get
durability and cleanliness, added to
greater facility in hearing the services,
for carpets absorb and deaden sounds.
Hereafter we shall not be so much
troubled with worn, ragged carpets and
accommodating dust. Tiles will outwear
dozens of carpets. and thus save both
expense and labor"
