Mrs. Barnhart Enjoys Life Once More.

DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM-I had been
sick ever since my marriage, seven
years ago; have given birth to four
children, and had two miscarriages. L
had falling of womb, leucorrhea, pains
in back and legs; dyspepsia and a
nervous trembling of the stomach
Now have none of these troubles and
can enjoy my life. Your medicine has
worked wonders for me. "-MRs. S.

It is the common experience of all
who have had to do with babies of
three months old and upward that
they tire quickly of toys which can
only be looked at and handled, while
something in the nature of an oocupa-
ton, suited exactly to the child's ca
pacity, will hold his attention for an
almost indefinite period. Such occu-
pations as pulling out the stopper of
an empty vial and putting it in again,
taking pins out of pincushion and
sticking them in, winding and un-
winding a spool of thread, empting
and reflling a dish with sand or wa
ter, will give pleasure for half hours
at time and for many hours in the
aggregate. The instinct for classify
ing and arranging is very early
awakened, and small objects are
placed in rows or in piles; pebbles
and shells assorted by size or color;
beads and buttons strung upon wires
or strings with never failing enjoyment
Thus toys may be- largely dispensed
with to the child's positive advantage,
and what he really needs is a supply
of play material, such as sand, blocks,
pebbles, seeds, small boxes and bot
ties. paper and string. Woman's
Home Companion.
