THE pABY,s FIRST SUMMER.

Fortunate is the city baby who Is
born in September or october, for then
he will have but one summer to pass
through while his powers of resistance
are very low. BY the end OF the sec
ond year the child should have devel-
oped considerable strength of constitu-
ton, and ought, II properly cared for,
to triumph over many evil influences
to which the younger infant is very apt
to succumb.
The primary cause of infant mortal
ity in cities during midsummer Is the
intense heat and next comes. In the
case OF bottle-fed children, the giving
of indigestible food or Of milk which
has begun to change. The babys lie,
in other words, depends upon his be-
ing kept cool and being properly fed.
+. These matters are of such import
ance that in most of our cities the
health boards issue each summer leaf
lets containing directions for the care
OF the baby. and distribute them
among all the tenement-house jewellers.
In these leaflets, mothers are
warned particularly to keep the baby
and all its surroundings absolutely
clean. The child should be sponged or
bathed once or twice every day in
lukewarm water, dried by wrapping In
a soft towel, and then put into clean,
dry clothes. The clothing should be
light and loose and changed often
The baby should never sleep in the
clothes which it has worn during the
day, nor wear in the day those which
have been slept in at night. 1t should
sleep in separate cot, and never
in the bed with its mother. The sleep
ing-room should always be we'll aired,
the windows being open day and night.
During the day the baby should be
kept in the open air as much as pos
sible, and daily ride into the coun-
try on a trolley car, or an excursion on
the water, If there is any large body
of it accessible, will do more, per-
haps, thai anything else to keep the
little one in health.
1t should never be forgotten that
baby needs water to drink, and plenty
of it, in hot weather The water
should he boiled, then poured into
bottle, half filling it, and well shaken
to restore the air lost in boiling. This
is then cooled, not iced. and given to
the baby in small quantities at fire.
CIent intervals through the day.
A nursing baby has an immense ad
vantage over one that is bottle-fed,
and on no account should weaving be
attempted just before or during the hot
weather. If artificial feeding is neces-
sary, the physician should be con-
suited as to the choice of food, for
among the many kinds on the market
some are good and some are not.
A babys diet will be considered
more fully in another article on the
prevention of summer complaint

Sugar Cane OF China.

The sugar cane of China is said by
botanists to be an entirely distinct spe-
cies from that of India, and this fact
is supposed to indicate that the de-
velopment of sugar cane was carried
on independently by two different ma
lions at the same time.

different doctors treated Mr.. ]. o. Ian
deman, of this place for Kidney Trou-
BILE. He had been very i'll for three
years, and he despaired of ever being

Somebody suggested Dodd's Kidney
Pills. Mr.. Landeman used two boxes.
He is completely cured, and besides
losing all his Kidney Trouble, his gen.
eral health is much better than it has
been for years.
No case that has occurred in St.

created such profound sensation and
Dodd's Kidney Pills are being well
advertised, as a result of their Won

of the royal party for a day or more,
and should they succeed it viii prove
great drawing card for the exposi-
ton. 1t is also hoped that they may
visit Washington and meet President
Mckinley, or, if that is impossible,
and they can get to Buffalo, an eff
fort will be made to have the presi-
dent there to welcome them to the
United States.
Before leaving England King Ed
ward conferred the power of grant
ing knighthood upon the duke, and
many titles are expected to be left in
the wake of the party as they jour-
ney through England's colonies, the
comforting of which will do much to
bind the mother country and her coll
onies together in closer ties, and to
| popularize the ruling house of Eng
land throughout Greater Britain in
which SO little of royalty is seen.
Great preparations were made for
| this journey of the heir apparent Of
/ England and his wife. The steamship
! Ophir, in which their trip is being
made, was prepared for the occasion
with great care, and for some months
has undergone an elaborate overhaul
ing to make it a worthy home for it's
royal passengers during the time of
their journey. When she left Eng
land she was superior in many ways
to either of the royal yachts in which
English royalty have previously trav-
eled. The Ophir was first built to run
as mail and passenger steamer be-
tween England and Australia in the
Orient line. In that capacity she won
a reputation for safety and for com.
fort which gains for her the distinc-
ton of carrying the duke and duchess

horse failed to see the joke; with a
cleverly directed side kick he bowled
Stats over into the current of Wells
streets liquid mud. The bull terrier
countered with a mouth grip on the
right hind leg of the horse, and the
next instant was flying through the
air over the car tracks to the opposite
curb line. A passing hearse caught
Stats on the rebound and tossed him
onto the resilient fender of south
bound Lincoln avenue grip car; the re-
coil of the springs shot Stats back into
the funeral procession, and the horses
of the carriage following the hearse
walked all over the yelping dog. Stats
managed to escape the carria ge wheels,
and gathering himself together Hoped
on three legs down Wells street for the
side door of his home saloon.
Sampson and the expressman had al
mostreachedt the bare-knuckle point of
their argument as to whether the dog
or the horse was the practical joker,
when Stats yelps of pain and surprise,
the frenzied changing of the grip-car
bell and the warning shouts of the
oplookers broke the thread of the de-
bate. Sampson hurried after Stats,
and the expressman tore a blanket to
bandage his horses wounded leg.

THOR the purpose of showing royal
appreciation of the assistance
given the mother country in her
time of need by the colonies of Eng
land, King Edward not only consent
ed to, but urged, the world circling
Journey upon which the duke and
duchess of Cornwall and York are
now engaged. They will carry to the
loyal supporters of the home govern
ment in India, in Australia, in South
Africa and Canada the thanks of the
rulers of England for the timely as
sistance rendered by these colonies
in England's time of greatest need,
and for the loyal troops they sent to
fight England's battles in South At
RIGA.
Such a journey had first been
planned by Queen Victoria early last
fall, and for the same purpose, but
for time it was feared the death of
the queen would prevent the carrying
out of the royal programme, for it is
one thing for the heir presumptiye to
the English throne to leave England
for the greater part of year, and
quite another for the heir apparent
to do so. But King Edward would
hear of no change in the plans.
They left England on March &c. and
at this writing are well on their way
TO Australia, where the duke will
open the first parliament of feder-
ated Australia in May. His will be
the first visit of English royalty to
this PARKWAY colony, and the Aus
traiian people will give him royal
welcome.
