HYGIENIC TREATMENT.
Fresh Air, Proper Food and SLEEP
Make Infants Strong.

It is easier to keep a baby in good
health when he is strong than to cure him
when he is i'll: therefore do not neglect
the many trifies that enter into his daily
care.
The important things necessary for best
development are good air, cleanliness,
proper food and sleep.
Exercise includes an occasional. but not
frequent. fit of loud crying; not whine
that means sickness or something wrong
but a lusty cry that expands the lungs
in a manner most beneficial. Don't make
the mistake of letting an infant indulge in
1t often though.
If YOU fear that he will take cold, do
not go to the other extreme of not having
his winter nursery properly ventilated.
Unless he has pure air when indoors he
will be susceptible to the slightest change
in temperature when outdoors, and this
is bad. At least twice day the room In
| which baby stays must be swept through
With fresh air.
Take the infant into another room if for
any reason you cannot send him outdoors
and then open the window at the top as
we'll as the bottom. Open the door. too.
or another window facing. if there Is one,
so that there will be draught to take out
Tic jplu air. lnlS airing SNOulQ continue
for ten minutes. and then the windows
may be closed again except for a couple
OF inches at the top.
Windows open this way with a fire going

baby
If the child must be brought back to the
nursery BET fore he is warm enough, wrap
him in a blanket and keep him on the
bed. The cold air will be good for him
If he has on sufficient clothing.
Regularity is the keynote to health In a
baby. Whatever Is done for him must
always be done at the same hour. He
should have his bath at the same time,
always be fed in the same way. at the
stated hour: the time of being put to bed
either for a nap or for the night should
not vary five minutes. and his airing must
not be interfered with. Baby Is distinct
tly a creature of habit as we'll as of in
stinct and unless he is allowed to do the
same things day after day he will have

etc.
Helping baby to walk at too early an
age Is detrime ntal in more ways than one.
but especially harmful to the muscles Of
the legs. Walking too SOON may mean
curved or "bow" legs, a Disagreement for
which there Is no excuse and for which
the mother is responsible. 1t is far better
that he should make no effort to walk
until he Is almost year old than that
he should be encouraged to hold on to

EGG-POACHING PAN.
Egg Easily Removed and Placed
Upon Toast Without Breaking.

In poaching eggs in an ordinary skillet
the white of the egg becomes broken or
separated and the yolk is correspondingly
weakened and frequently breaks. Fur
thermore, difficulty is always encountered
by the cook in removing the poached
egg from the skillet and arranging 1t
upon the toast or other article upon which
1t is to rest. To provide a pan which
will overcome these objections and from
which the poached egg can be quickly
removed without breaking the egg in the

tween the SILK and the iron. The latter
must be quite warm, for the waist will be
wet. Pass the iron over the surface until
the article Is almost dry. then remove
the cloth and iron directly on the right
side of the silk. If you neglect the use
of the cloth the silk will form into hun
dreds of little wrinkles.
Iron Sleeves First.
Begin with the sleeves, then stuff them
full of tissue paper and proceed with the
body of the waist, or, if found more con-
venient, reverse the order and fill the
body part with the paper, ironing the
sleeves last
Not only silk waists but whole gowns
may be safely attempted if one is willing
to take this trouble.
To restore lace, make a bath as de-
scribed for silks, using the water little
hotter and adding some ammonia. I'm
merSe the lace, cover with a towel and
leave for twenty minutes. In washing
avoid rubbing. or the threads may become
broken. Never rub soap directly on the
lace. 1t makes it thick and coarse look
ing and spoils the color. This delicate
trimming must be squeezed up and down
Rinse in two OF more baths, then shake
out the water and lay it on ironing board
right side down. Cover with thin cloth
and iron until the lace is almost dry,
then remove the cloth and pick out all

down firmly in order to bring out the
pattern. THE lace should be crisp. II
very much stiffness is required a few
grains of raw starch may be added to
the last r1nsing water.
Very old lace may be restored by soak
ing in warm milk for half an hour, Their

Chiffon Cleansed Like Silks.
Chiffon and mousselines will respond to
the same cleansing treatment as is rec.
commended for fine silks, but personally ]
have had better success in pinning these
fabrics on a bed, large pillow. etc, I'M
til dry, then by ironing them. They look
more like new and are not limp as they
are ironed. For chenille dotted chiffons
this idea is excellent, as all the dots
stand out.
If one wishes starch for any kind of
fine goods the better way to make it is to
mix dry starch with cold water and then
boil it until it is perfectly clear. It
should be of a very weak consistency
The starched article must be folded In
cloth for several hours. then when
ready for ironing it must be laid on a
board and have all the edges picked out
Pin down to the board and when dry re-
move the pins and press, using a paper
between the material and the iron.
Summer stains, such as are made by ice
cream. grass and perspiration, should be
washed.
To remove spots first sponge with gaso-
line or chloroform. When dry, wash
with soap and water and rub until nearly
dry with a flannel cloth.
Alcohol will generally dissolve grass
stains. If these are obstinate, cover with
molasses then wash in cold water. II the

MADE TO LOOK NEW
HOW TO TREAT YOUR OLD SILKS
AND THIN FABRICS.

There is no reason why soiled or passe
summer frocks and accessories should be
entirely discarded. for with little care and
work most of them can be made almost
like new.
Chinons. mousselines. thin silks and
laces will, as rule, stand soap and water
during the process of renewal. Only the
best white soap should be used. however.
Other laundry requisites necessary will
be vinegar, SALT borax, ammonia and
clear cold tea.
AS soap should never be rubbed on deli
cate fabrics, the better plan is to make
soap jelly. To do this shred good white
soap into sufficient water to cover 1t.
adding half a teaspoonful of borax. Set
it on the back of the stove, but do not
allow the mixture to boil, and when quite
free from Jumps the jelly is ready for use.
To wash white or dainty colored silk
waists (only one should be washed at a
time), take a bowl of warm-not hot
water and add sufficient soap jelly to
make a lather. Lay in the waist, and, II
much soiled, allow 1t to soak for twenty
minutes. except in the case of dainty
color, which may run. Wash by sQueez-
ing-not rubbing-through the hands, then
remove and place in a second bowl OF
warm water and soap jelly, turning the
waist on the wrong side. Squeeze through
this bath, but do not wiring the garment.
Then rinse thoroughly in warm water to
remove all traces of soap, otherwise the
white silk might turn yellow when IRON
ed Finally put through cold water and
the silk will be an ivory color. If pure
white fringe is desired add a few drops
of blueng; to secure n cream shade put
teacupiut OF cold tea in the last rinsing
water.
To Preserve Gloss on Silk.
The gloss of silk may be preserved by
dipping the garment after rinsing in a
solution of methylated spirit in the pre-
portions of three tablespoonfuls of the
spirit to a quart of water
Before washing colorcd silks it is well
to set the color by LAYING in salt and
water for a short time and then adding
salt to the rinsing water. If the bright
tints appear to have raoed in the wash
one tablespoonful of common vinegar to
a quart of water will .'..vive the color, but

the purpose than vinegar Plain colors

where there are mixed colors. as in the
case of striped or checked wash silks, the
process should be accomplished quickly.
otherwise the colors may run into each
other. This would ruin the garment.
The last rinsing over, roll the wet
blouse In a thick, clean cloth and leave
there an hour or so before ironing. In
ironing use piece OF thin muslin be-
