That Convenient scape goat,ps the
linotype man, didn't do thing to our
letter in Saturdays paper. He made
us to say plants could not stand
"drowth" because excessive moisture
had caused them to "rot" at the sur
face instead of root We were made
to say blowing would compel the
cover to rot deeper" instead of corn
to root deeper.
Soloons do not make more drunk

This is indeed very hard summer
on the babies and well known ply
stefan Of Fairmont said that to find a
family with baby in it was almost
certain to find family with sickness
there. II Is well for parents to bear
this all In mind and while 1t is not ad.
visable to get frightened nor excited
yet use good sense and judgment in
care OF babies and also for that matter
older ones and keep premises healthy
and free from disease germs. Air
Stacked lime is cheap and a splendid
dsinfectant to. use about all damp or
foul smelling places also 1t is well to
keep from children green or over ripe
fruit. We never saw season when
there was so much stomach and intes
final troubles and an ounce Of pre-.
vention will be worth a pound OF
cure. , FRITZ.
