A great many mothers have the
habit of taking their babies to the Ia
BILE. and allowing them to eat little
az anything and everything they can
ind. This is pernicious habit and
breeds a great deal of trouble. Solid
food is improperly masticated in the
mouth and improperly digested after
swallowing, thus passing as an irritant
the whole length of the intestinal tract.
Starchy foods are allowed infants at
times, and We know these must be
changed to sugar before being ab-
sorbed, and in the child this change
will not take place until about the
sixth month of life. The undigested

Slaughter of the Seals.

Year by year the war of extermina-
ton against the seas Of the north
seas continues. A recent report from
st. Johns, Newfoundland, states that
fleet of thirteen ships has returned
from the seal hunting grounds after
