WHY DOES
A BABY CRYl

Because it is either hun
CRY or in pain. Properly
nourished it will usually grow
up right and be comfortable
that's the principal thing
for a baby. If its food lacks
strength and nourishment
add SCOTS Emulsion at feed
ing time. A few drops will
show surprising results. IL a

Sanitation and Critics.

1t is very right and proper that
the United States government
should use all its influence in be-
half of a campaign against yellow
fever in the countries of tropical
America. While Cuba was a focus
OF the fever there were periodical
epidemics in the southern states of
the Union causing enormous loss
of money, not to speak of the dis
tress and sorrow brought upon
families. The government of Mex
leo, which takes always the en-
lightened modern view in practical
matters, is cooperating with the
American government in a most
commendable sanitary campaign.
Cuba is alive to the necessity of
maintaining her new and creditable
record in sanitation.
There are some newspapers in
the United States which are max
ing foolish talk about Cuba, and
/ are prone to get excited if a case
or two of yellow fever develops in
Mexican towns and ports. These
journals are unfair; they should
give some study TO the causes Of
the epidemic of pneumonia in New
York and other American cities,
and instruct their readers about far
more immediate and pressing dan
gers than yellow fever in some
Tehuantepec village. Very sen
sibly, the New York Sun says
Peril of epidemic turks in all
cities. Typhoid, pneumonia, tuber-
culosis and diphtheria menace
American cities more dangerously
than does yellow fever any Cuban
city.
Not long ago the Sun said there
were more bad odors in New York
than in any Cuban city.
All this talk does some good; it
keeps the public mind alert and
convinced of the need Of sanitation.
Mexico may be fairly proud of her
present campaign in behalf of the
public health. She is doing her
duty, spending all necessary money
and doing il with whole-hearted-
ness. Mexican Herald.
