Kissing the Baby.

There are many mothers who giv'
themselves infinite trouble about th'
big and obvious things connected with
nursery management no strive brave
lyto be mp to date in the matter of plumb
| ing, ventilation and infectious diseases
who yet fail wofully when it comes to
certain details. One of the most impor.
tant of these is the disgusting and dan
gerous habit OF allowing every conner 10
kiss aud maui the baby.
y baby no doubt Is a delightful OBJ
ject and almost Irresistible but that is
no reason why advantage should be
taken Of his helpless condition TO offer
him constant hygienie outuges.
Here IS speech well-meaning
goose of a young mother made to the
father of her child on his return from
business: Mrs. Smith called to-day,
John. She has fearful cold and sore
throat. She thought the baby was just
too sweet for anything, and wouldn't
let him out of her arms. He took to
her wonderfully, too" Naturally the
baby developed a bad ease OF the snuff
fies in day or two, and then it was:
"The baby has dreadful cold. We
cannot think where he got it, we are
always so careful"
This mother and the hundreds like
her should be Taught the lesson that
promiscuous kissing is bad and vulgar
habit, productive of much danger to
adults as well as children. Adults can
protect themselves if they like, but in
fants cannot and 80 it Is the duty of the
mothers to protect them.
Even if they mercifully escape actual
infection in babyhood, there still re-
mains the fact that a silly and unclean
habit is formed, resulting in schools
full Of kissing children, and by and by
in ridiculous communities of kissing ac-
quaintances. We may learn useful
lesson from the japanese in this regard.
They are not kissing race, and the lit
tie children do not know what ii means,
except perhaps from their mothers. It
is generally acknowledged that the
japanese babies are the hcalthiest and
happiest of youngsters and who shall
say how much wholesome restraint
from the kissing habit may have to do
with this fortunate state of affairs.
To make too much of children is to
spoil them, but in one respect they
should be treated like royalty-if they
must be kissed it should be only the
back Of the hand.-Youth's Companion.

The Advertising Philantropist.

have much of anything only his warts,
and he jumped at the chance Calf

arrived, too. Oh, yes. And Jed had
all the care of it.
Come along about time when the

Moltke would read that dispatch to the
emperor and after rejecting for a few mo-

few moments in which he might seem to
refect-he would turn to him and say: In

your majesty will doubtless order so and
So The emperor would say, va va and
Won Moltke's order went out at once and

Prof. Felix Adler regards Booker Wash
ington as a greater benefactor OF mankind
than Cecil Rhodes. In his address before
the Society for Ethical Culture, Prof.
Adler in New York City said: Rhodes
was visionary, with a theatrical magma
ton. He was no vulgar money grubber for
moneys sake. He dreamed OF empire max
ing and British domination Of the world.
He was big, large, vast. but not great.
Greatness depends upon quality and not
upon quantity. His startling and remark
able will following his vast ideas OF uniting
all the English speaking races deserves
the attention of all. On the other hand,
the scheme for the union OF all English
speaking people for world domination is as
immoral as impossible, and a delusion. In
the mind OF Cecil Rhodes, as | see II. there

SignoT CalcagnO has been imprisoned sew

terances, was released only a short time
ago on account of i'll health and has fed

once to escape the police.
The Italian poet Glosue Carducci, who
is in poor health and who, like many
other authors, has found literature in Italy
not to be a lucrative profession, was
troubled by the thought that at his death
the library which he has collected with so
much care would be dispersed and sold
piecemeal. Queen MargheTita, to whose
personal influence the conversion Of Car
ducci from republicanism to monarchism is
due, has saved him from worry by buying
his library for As, 900 francs, on the con-
dition that he retain the use Of It during
his lifetime. The queens act has been
much applauded, and it is practically Ger
tain that Carducci's library will eventually
be handed over to the municipality Of Bo-
logna, where Carducci has always lived.

General Schofeld, speaking in favor OF
the new army bill before a committee in
Washington the other day, gave the follow
ing illustration: Won Moltke is probably
the best illustration in modern times Of
what the military chief Of stan may be and
should be. lie was the chief OF stan OF
the Germa emperor. A report would zone
in, for example, from the crown prince.
He had had a terrific fight and he would
say: Such and such is the military stu
alton; what are the orders?' Then Won
