BABY'S SKIN TORTURE

When our baby was seven weeks old he broke out with what we thought was heat, but which gradually grew worse. We called in a doctor He said it was eczema and from that time we doctored six months with three of the best doctors in Atchison but he only got worse. His face, head and hands were a solid sore. There was no end to the suffering for him. We had to tie his little hands to keep him from scratching He never knew what it was to sleep we'll from the time he took the disease until he was cured. He kept us awake all hours of the night and his health wasn't what you would call good We tried everything but the right thing.
 Finally I got set of the Cuticura Remedies and 1 am pleased to say we did not use all of them until he was cured. We have waited year and a half to see if it would return but it never has and to-day his skin Is clear and fair as it possibly could be. I hope Cuticura may save some one else's little ones suffering and also their pocket-books. John Leason, 1403 Atchison St., Atchison, Kan, Oct 19, 1909"

When the day of days came around I had 6 fund that enabled me to celebrate in proper style, while many of my playmates were fiat broke It was my first lesson in thrift, and it was good one.

Weighing an Incubator Baby.

perature; to observe the most scrupu. lous sanitation, and to supply the right nourishment in the right quantities at exact intervals. It Is very simple, you see-and very skillful.
 The air introduced to the glassed incubator is taken from out of doors, warmed, sterilized and conducted to the infant through a silvered pipe. A thermostat inside the incubator auto matically maintains the air at the right temperature. If the child is too small or too weak to feed itself, the milk is given with a nasal spoon; that is, fluid is administered drop by drop to the nostrils, and inhaled, reaching the stomach in due course.
 'Immediaately before each feeding, and immediately after, the infant is weighed in these sterilized scales which are so delicately adjusted that they register the exact amount of nourishment taken. This is charted so that each days totals show wheth. CT the babe has gained in weight, and how much, or lost in weight, and how much. There must be steady gain If the child is to grow. If 1t does not grow it cannot live. Hence, if the day registers no gain in weight, we know at once something is wrong. Wrong with what2 With the milk And we set about to make the remedy.

Loves Crime.

George was a manly fellow, yet, sur prising as it may seem, he was guilty of a grave charge a criminal offense- theft, for had he not many times, stolen kisses from his fair sweet heart?
 Maude, one of the most lovable of girls, was equally guilty as an access sory; she received the stolen property. Each seemed to have perfect confi- dence in the other, however, and when sentence was pronounced by proper ly qualified official, they decided to serve their time together.
 They remained loyal to the end, neither making any effort to have their sentence abrogated or shortened, but during the course of their long term together several small offenses were directly chargeable to them.-J. w. B. in Puck.

 Themselves Pious City.

There was called meeting Of the Ancient Order of Spins last evening, and papers were read on every sub feet, from removing grease from car pets to the sad memories that attach to a bunch of old letters. The Spins were having a hilarious time when visiting Spin got up to make few re- marks. She said that, while they are happy now, there was sad time com ing. Think of the day. she said, when. having no husbands or chil- dren, you will be all alone" There was a sniff and then snort as Spin after Spin recalled wives and mothers who are alone from daylight till dark, except when some member of the fam ily wants waiting on. The sniffing and snorting increased in volume as Spin after Spin told Of her freedom from worry, her independence In financial matters and the joy of doing as she pleased But we must not take offense at what our sister has said" one Spin remarked. Let us show our good intentions by calling OF every lonesome wife and mother we know" This was six weeks ago, and though the Spins have devoted every afternoon and evening since to this missionary work, they haven't made half the rounds yet.-Atchison Globe.

New York.-The doctor said: Hold him up, please-yes. that way, against your arm. So"
 He was fourteen inches long from the soles of his blanket-swathed toy feet to the crown of his forehead; and he weighed four pounds and an ounce. The age of him was thirty days, and his face was hardly the face of baby.
 The length of him reached from the fold of the nurses plump elbow to the first hinge of her palm-fourteen inches-and she had taken a gold ring from her finger and, slipping 1t easily oyer the child's hand, pushed it up, up, till now it encircled his forearm Then, enyeloping her charge deftly in featherweight bit of blanket, she car ried him off to his incubator in an other room.
 How many more days-or hours will that fragment of humanity live?" l maryeled of the hospital physician,
 It was Doctor Fischel who answered -Fischel of New York, perfector with Couney and Schenkein of the infant incubator to it's present scientific stage, and of the medical system of observation and nourishment now used in conjunction with it.
 Bless you,' answered Ffschei, whc speaks with strong German accent, that baby has an excellent chance to grow up into strong, healthy, full. sized man. l shall be much disap. pointed if he does not"
 If an infant weighs less than two pounds and three ounces, it dies on the day of it's birth he said. If it's weight is from two pounds and three ounces to three pounds and five ounces, nearly one-half can be saved by proper incubation and the most scientific care. Let the weight be from three pounds and five ounces tC four pounds and seven ounces, and 72 per cent can be saved From four pounds and seven ounces to five pounds and nine ounces, 90 per cent. And if the weight is more than that modern incubation reduces the mortal ity to an almost infinitesimal percent age.
 The incubation system. as they have corrected and perfected it, rests upon four cardinal principles. To fur nish the child with perfectly pure air; to maintain an even and proper tenn
