THE MEMORABLE LAW,

waterloo
Perhaps it is the privilege of any
man to do with his money as he
pleases. This is true only in so far as
such expenditure does not injure 9TH
ers. Stamford White is reputed to
have had an annual income of $250,000.
He prostituted it to lavishment upon
strange women and in the qualification
of sensual passion He might have
over-drawn his bank account and es-
capped reparation. but when his drafts
upon human nature became heavy he
was compelled to pay them to the last
farthing, even TO his soul. Had Stan
ford White an income of only $4,000 a
year he might have been better man
and been living today. Statutory law
may be ignored or defined, but moral
laws are as memorable in their eXac-
lions as the law that governs the
swing of the Pleads or the course Of
Orion.

THINGS THE BABY NEEDS.
A Few Simple Rules for the Guidance
Of Young Mothers.

The less noise baby hears, the less
he is carried about and played with
for the first six months of his life, the
better It will be.
1t is seldom necessary to take him
from his crib, except for his bath and
meals. The habit of tossing him about
and trotting him on the knee makes
him nervous and wakeful, and cannot
possibly do any good.
His undeveloped system calls for
rest, yet he Is often denied that priv
ilege
Children, as we'll as older people,
are to a great extent creatures OF
habit, and they cannot acquire habits
that are conducive to proper develop
ment and health of the body at too
early an age.
1t Is during sleep that the building
up forces work without interruption
and the child gains in flesh and
strength.
Have regular hours for his maps,
and see that everything is favorable
for sleep at that time. There should
be no tight bands to hinder respira.
ton.
Place his crib in such position
that the light will not shine direct
y upon his face-preferably in cool.
quiet corner. Do not cover him too
warmly; change his position occa-
sionally, and he will sleep longer.
II baby is restless and does not
sleep WELL, 1t is well to remove some
of the covering. Baby should not be
covered too warmly. but should have
just enough covering so he won't be
cold.
Never give your baby soothing sirup
of any kind, except on the advice of
your. physician.
Whenever baby shows the slightest
symptoms of sickness 1t is best to call
a physician at once, since much harm
may be done by only few hours de-
lay, and the little life is far too pre-
cious to be sacrificed needlessly.

Rules for Panama Hats.

Mr.. William c. Hesse, who Is the
government authority on Panama
hats, gives the following rules for the
care OF your best Panama, says Tech.
nical World Magazine. Don't crush
up Panama hat as though 1t were
a cloth cap. 1t cannot stand such
treatment; it will break. The stories
of the indestructibility of Panama
hats are untrue. Don't attempt to
clean Panama hat yourself except
with soap and water 1t is folly to
use lemon or acid on this sort of
hat, and 1t is the height of folly to
let the irresponsible and ignorant
street fakir do your cleaning, for he
invariably uses the rankest acid. Don't
fail to brush your Panama at least
once a day. Straw hats should be
brushed as often as derby hats.
brush mine twice a day. and it is as
clean at the end of the summer as 1t
was at the beginning. Don't fail to
remove crease that may be any
where In your hat. Such crease Is
bound to cut the straw. Don't be
careless of your Panama hat. Treat
1t with consideration, and 1t will last
you all your life.

BEST WAY TO HANG PICTURES.
Should Never Be Placed at an Angle
to the Wall.

Does anybody still hang pictures at
an angle to the wall? Has 1t not
been impressed on everybody that a
picture to show to the best advan-
tage should hang fiat against the
wall?
IL was not long ago that every pic.
ture dipped at an angle maybe Of 30
degrees. The grouping of pictures
was, of course, impossible, when this
practice was followed, because no two
could ever be made to hang at the
same angle. Now pictures are hung
fiat.
The tendency to put as little fur
niture as possible into rooms has had
its effect on the walls. One picture
is now hung in the center of each
wall Broad ribbon-like hangings are
frequently used instead of wires-at
least the wires are hidden by these
ribbons, which fall from a rosette at
the ceiling. Sometimes a very heavy
silk cord conceals the wire and the
cord is tied In fiat bow at the cell.
ing line.
Small pictures are hardest to ar.
range in accordance with the present
styles. The best treatment of them
is to make a mass effect by hanging
them all together.

Camping In Germany.

The latest discovery in Germany is
camping! r. Julien writes about
1t In the Berlin Tageblatt as "die neu.

camping summer amusement comes

The Americans, he goes on to inform
his countrymen, convinced that the
comforts OF life in cities tend toward
eheminacy, make regular sport Of
camping. Not only during the SUBJ
mer vacation, but often over Sunday
they go-alone, in couples, in fam.
lilies, In clubs-to forest or shore.
Sleeping in the open air steels their
nerves, while rod and rifle provide ad.
ditional recreation. Mr.. Julien sus.
poets that "Trapper-romantik" and
inherited ancestral love of adventure
throw light on this American spe.
cialty. Possibly, he adds, the paucity
OF "Erholungsstatte" has something
to do with it. There he is, OF course,
mistaken, but his guess suggests the
main reason, no doubt, why the Ger.
mans themselves have not heretofore
known the delights of camping. A
German never takes a walk or excur.

wrap another paper around this and
