Anything that gives baby comfort dur
ing the heat of summer is of interest to
mothers of infants.
New pieces of furniture, such as the
wicker enameled crib, the lightest, dain-
tieSt kind of a cot imaginable, far SUI
perior to the bassinette, are particularly
desirable for hot weather 1t is fash
ioned on the order of an iron crib, stands
on castors and can be moved convenient
ly to any part of the house. 1t costs
Sl5 without fittings, but is of a size to
accommodate a child three years of age.
For use with it there is a lovely soft
padding covered with pink china silk,
tufted, that can be tied around the sides
of the cot If desired. On very warm
days this padding may be dispensed with.
Being MADE in sections one or more may
be used to ward off draushts at head,
side or feet. In the case of young
baby ii may be desirab bic to use all til"
pads for few months, afterward leav-
ing the crib open to the air The little
mattress to fit the cot costs $50.
The cot comes enamcled in white,
touched with blue or pink. There is
another model decorated in raised
bronze flowers. 1t was handsome, but l
should not want it, because soon as
baby made an effort to get out Of bed
he or she would probably tumble and be

hence my reason for preferring the

Another novelty in baby furnishings
is the cabinet. This takes the place of
the baby's basket and comes iii round
and square shapes. TIE former re-
sembles an enameled willow soiled
clothes hamper. and the latter a table.
Four trays are set one above the other,
each having a bottom of enameled wood,
