CLOTHING THE BABY.
HOW TO MAKE LITTLE DRESSES,
LONG AND SHORT.

The Newest styles For the Wee Ones
and How an Outfit May Be Manu-
featured at Home-Pretty Summer
Garments.

The tiny, newborn baby now has
its little woven shirt half silk and
half wool and as soft as thistle down.
Next to that comes the long woven
flannel band, and this has tapes and
buttons for fastening. Then comes
the little absorbent diaper made of
soft and flexible waterproofed mate
rial. Tiny knitted socks of the finest
zephyr keep the mites of feet warm.
After these come the barrie coat"
This is open down the front in the old
way, but buttons fasten 1t, and there
are armholes to keep it up. No pins
are needed, and so the flannel petticoat
Is made in the same way as to the
waist, and so is the pretty white main
sock one. These used to be made dou-
BILE. They are not now And they
considered sufficient to keep the body
firm. Then comes the long dress. This
is of thin white stuff, the finest and
best that can be afforded This little
dress is not over one yard long now,
and the surplus length is put into a
yoke and sleeves. The flannel shirt
has long sleeves too.
Small close hoods of lace, siIken lin
ed, and long elder down cloak made
double and with long sleeves and
small knit veil for cold days complete
the outfit of most babies now. This
does not count the sleeping wrapper,
which may be flannel or doubled out

such material is far better for the baby

PAIN KILLERS.
Easy Meank of Relieving Suffering.
Dry Heat the Remedy.

Dry Heat the RcGeOy-
The following easy means of reliey-
ing pain, Endorsed as especially prac-
teal by a number of expert physicians,
are presented in Good Housekeeping:
When patient is not confined to the
bed, it may be well in a case OF throat
trouble TO use cloths wrung from hot
water, bur under no consideration is it
safe to use water about patient in
bed, Notwithstanding the belief of
many in the efficacy of hot water as a
cure all.
1t is heat, not moisture, that quiets
pain. Wet cloths retain heat only a
brief time, but they do something else.
They dampen the bedding and the pa
tents clothing, to his great danger.
Often the dampening produces serious
cramps, causing excruciating suffering,
and those in attendance, thinking the
cramps are part of the illness, keep
up the wet cloth treatment instead Of
fastening 10 change the wet clothing
for dry. There have been cases where
death soon followed such treatment.
dry heat to quiet pain. Hot water bags
and bottles are excellent if perfectly
tight. Hot sand bags also are good to
place beside the body and limbs. A
relay of hot plates wrapped in wooden
cloth, will do wonders in giving relief
to a patient.
In any case of serious bowel trouble
it is well to follow up with relays of
hot plates, lightweight earthen, or, bet
ter still because of their lightness, are
the tin plates such as are used by bak
ers, being always careful they are as
hot as can be borne and not too hot
and wrapped in cloth.
This remedy will allay Inflammation
and pain to a wonderful degree 1t is
also excellent in rheumatism Of the
hip knee or ankle. A frequent change
of hot plates, well wrapped in. wooden
and placed beneath or over the suf-
fering joint as the patient lies in bed,
will bring great relief.
Hot wooden blankets greatly assist in
pulling patient through serious neu-
ralgic pains Another great help in
the sickroom is found in the use of
wool cloths smaller than blankets.
These are made by cutting one or more
thick wool blankets into four or six
pieces each. Do not finch at cutting
up blanket. Consider that the OBJ
ject is to get the sick one restored to
health. The price of a pair Of blan-
kets would go but little way on a
doctors bill, and these wool squares
will last for years, for use In the sick
room. They can be cleansed and put
away from moths between whites.
Nothing is more handy. They can be
heated and tucked around the patient
as desired, being heated often enough
to keep up the necessary warmth. This
gives much comfort and induces sleep.
Beware Of dampened beds and clothes
even in health.

Novel Conception
of Death.

Some curious doctrines in regard to life
and death have long been popular among
the natives Of Madagascar.
They believe" says Remisiray, one of
their learned men, that the body contains
a soul, but that it is not Indispensable and
that person can live for some time without
1t. The soul, too, can live without the body,
at least for a certain time and ia a hazard
Gus manner. In order to continue In life the
body must sustain itself with food, and In
like fashion the soul, in order to ward off
death, must sustain itself with the soul of
that food. The most popular doctrine is that
the soul separates itself from the body of
a man short time before his life ends-11
months say some, 13 months say others. The
soul, however, does not go forth of its own
accord and sickness is ascribed to the malice
Of some magician.
1T becomes necessary therefore to nullify
the magicians evil work, and for this pur-
pose the aid of soothsayer is sought. The
latter utters incantations in order to discov-
er some trace of the fugitive soul, and soon
he announces that he has tracked 1t to some
valley or to some mountain, and that it must
be pursued at once. Every one then goes on
the hunt, and basket with a cover is taken
along, so that the soul when captured may
be imprisoned in it and brought home.
When the spot is reached a diligent
search begins and meanwhile the soothsayer

a small baby in her arms and essayed a
story of her abject poverty, concluding
with request for assistance. The Gus

woman's request, whereupon she has de-

the jeweler.

Without examining them closely I'd say
that she could get SI5 on the pair at any

Paris Saturday.
The moment has come for thinking of win
ter costumes, which will henceforth assume
an important place.
The selection of the materials-each pref
tier than the other-their use according to
the requirements of indoor or outdoor life,
the cut necessary to be 'in the movement"
while maintaining a personal style, are ques-
tions on which this paper has taken counsel
with the arbiters of fashion for the benefit of
its readers.
You may expect the predominance Of fluffy,

Sables will undergo a change. While pre-

incrustations on boleros, jackets and skirts.
Mixed with furs they form an admirable
combination.
Among the fashionable trimmings will be
woven silk braids, embroidered in the style
Of the Empire braids used for furniture.
Bands of Persian braids, of unpronounced
designs and colors, will be a mark of great
distinction.
All the tailors have taken up narrow silk
braid, with long indentations, that can be
laid on in any direction and can be success
fully adapted to every form of trimming.
All these novelties are so attractive that
they are almost embarrassing. One longs
for one of each creation, so widely different
