The IKsntisth Century Baby

The superintendent of a well-known
hospital has the following to say about
the twentieth century baby:
A baby's day begins at o'clock,
when it should be taken from its crib,
fed and put back to remain at least
an hour and half During this time
the bath and everything pertaining to-
it should be prepared and made ready
for the bath itself The modern baby
has its own bath tub. bath thermome-
ter bath towels and all appurtenances|
that go toward accomplishing the pro-
cess of ablution in the best possible
way. The tub should be placed we'll
out OF the way Of draughts, and if near
the heater. with the foot, and not the
head toward t. The temperature of
the water should be 95 degrees and
never below CASTLE or good
pure soap suited to the tender purpose
of washing a baby should be used. No
acid soap should ever be employed. A
flannel blanket, large Turkish towels.
smaller towels Of soft linen and wash
cloths Of cheese cloth are all needed in
the process of the bath.
The blanket is spread over the tub,
the baby placed into it--gently sinking
into the water. the flannel making a
soft floor to the tub as it were. The
child should be lowered feet first, with
the back and head well supported by
the hand of the nurse or mother The
bathing should be accomplished as
swiftly as possible and not take more
than five minutes. The child should
then be lifted into the Turkish bath
towel on the lap Of the nurse. This
howell wrapped around it will dry the
body while the soft linen towel is used
for the face. neck and ears. Ordinarily
a baby does not have to be powdered.
Should there be need Of it, however,
powdered starch is best and next to
that talcum powder.
The dressing and undressing Of q
baby are important functions in its
everyday life. The first article put on
is a knitted abdomen band This
should never be tight The little shirt
comes next and should be of wool
Then a small, plain flannel petticoat
fastened over the shoulders. The slip
ought to be of some fine, dainty stuff
and should always be fastened in front
A baby should on no account be al
lowed to lie on pin or button
Napkins of cotton should be used.
The dressing of the baby after the
bath should take but fifteen minutes,
and il should be turned as little as pos
sible At night the baby may wear
the band and shirt it wore during the
day. but has another skirt and a night
gown instead of the slip.
A baby's second feeding is at s
o'clock. Then it should be put into
its crib, which has been freshly made
and the room thoroughly aired. Warm
air should. however be let into the
room until the temperature is about 40
degrees. at which il should be kept
While baby sleeps a room should al
ways be partially darkoned. A healthy
baby is said to sleep half and perhaps
three-quarters of the time
Regularity of feeding is of the ut
most Importance If every two hours
that time should be kept to, or every
three or four. whatever it is. A baby 8
day goes on divided into regular inter
walls Of feeding and sleeping It's night
is from 10 until 6. during which time
it is fed once-at o'clock.

The smart girl has taken to wearing
flowers again and never has she looked
more bewitching.
Not long since violets were the only
flowers permissible for street wear.
Now a big bunch of lilies OF the valley,
orchids. or even a cluster Of roses, for
certain occasions, may be substituted
for the violets.
The girl Of the mode and the moment
wears flowers on her muff, flowers
tucked in between the frills Of her boa,
flowers in her hair. flowers on her hat
and flowers pinned at her corsage.
With a calling costume 1t is quite
the proper thing to wear a cluster OF
roses fastened at the left side of the
bodice. AS many as nine half-open
roses may be worn if one is attending
an afternoon tea. The roses are al
ways ted with narrow gauze ribbon
which exactly matches the flowers in
color.
A handful of roses to wear with a
calling costume are so arranged that
a few of the flowers fall below the
waist line. And when wearing roses
at the side of the bodice in this fashion
it is also the vogue to have a rose or
two decorate the muff one carries.
For theatre wear flowers. are decid-
'edly modish Many a theatre bodice
displays a large bunch Of flowers tied
with many loops NJ homstitched gauze
ribbon. Even for violets the gauze
ribbon has quite taken the place of the
purple silk cord and tassel.
