IncubatOrs for Babies.

What dismal dirge would that arch.
pessimist, old Marthus, sing, if he
could see the infant incubators at the
Pan American Exposition He prophe-
sled that, with population increasing
in swift geometrical ratio, while food
products multiplied in slow arithmetical
ratio, starvation and dire distress
awaited the race. From his point Of
view. incubators would be the height
of folly
That they do the work intended by
their inventor IL we'll attested. They
are the salvation of infants prematurely
or weakly born. Statistics show that
only 25 per cent. of that class of babies
ordinarily live; by means of the incu.
bator about 85 per cent. are saved to
walk this vale Of tears.
In individual cases the incubator is 9
Godsend. 1t finishes the work rne
mother was too weak to perform and
saves her happiness and the child . life.
From the scientific and the sentimental
points Of view the incubator babies are
highly entertaining
In y pleasant room we'll lighted BY
stained glass windows stand dozen
metal cases that look like show cases.
They are elevated from the floor on steel
rods so that they are about the right
height for the ordinary observer. The
chamber in which the baby lies sleeping
is glass-covered so that the little mite
is plainly exposed to view. He Is
suspended on a bed Of woven wire,
soft-covered with appropriate padding
and linen. Dressed like an ordinary
infant, except that his little legs and
feet are pinned up In swadling clothes,
after the German fashion, there Is
usually nothing except his size to
indicate that he was handicapped at the
start In the race Of life.
Above each incubator Is card on
which are stated the child's initials,
the date of its birth its admission to the
incubator, the circumstances that make
artificial care advisable, his weight, and
any other details of significance. The
boys are distinguished, French fashion,
by blue ribbons, the girls by pink ones.
The most important consideration for
child prematurely born is temperature.
The temperature OF the incubators Is
kept uniform byImeans Of an automatic
contrivance. At the side OF each case
Is metal boiler which holds about two
gallons Of water that may be heated
from below by eiter Bunsen burner
or an! ordinary lamp. Through the
proper| introduction Of cold water the
circulation Is controlled In the pipes
that heat the incubator In the same
manner In which 1t Ia done In a home

good amount of the business Of the

reelected to this position. so there is
no change In any branch Of the school
force.
