The finger and toe ails are cleaned

This completes the daily toilet. Baby
while still very young need be ooth-

mands during the rest of the day. ana
the bathing need not be repeated until
next morning. The more the baby is
allowed to rest quietly the crib the
better he will be, and the most anX-
ious mother may feel assured that with
a daily bath the atom will get sum
cient xercise to last for twenty-tour
hours.
Weak boracic acid solution Is made
by allowing an ounce of powdered
boracic acid to stand in quart or
boiled and distilled water. Some OF
the powder will not dissolve, but 1t
NAV remain until the bottle is filled
again. Those who wish to insure the
germless condition of the solution may
boil together the water and powder be-
fore using it. The bottle should be
kept tightly cOrked. and a little poureu
ont into a glass for use at bath time.

If at any time baby should show

perhaps be better to leave baby'S band

Even then legs and feet may be sub

Sometimes, if the baby's head is not
shaped properly, the correct develop

toilet, but it should not be undertaken
except by the doctors advice and I'M

work should never be attempted by
the inexperienced.

A teacher said to me the other day,
You must never own up that YOU are

faith in you If 1 make a mistake I

Many fathers and mothers have the

totally wrong
You are far more apt 10 rose a child's
faith by blufting thing out than by
honestly owning up when you make an
error either in Judgment or in the

BY honestly owning up, you admit
to your child that you are human and
therefore liable to mistakes, but you
show your justice of intention. BY
bluffing you not only risk his faith in
