Give the baby plenty Of fresh air.
Keep 1t out of doors as much as pos
sible and when In the house the win
dows should always be open (but
screened). Keep the baby out Of the
sun, however, and be especially care
full to keep the rays OF the sun from
It's head.
Let the baby sleep all 1t will. While

regularly through the day. but never
wake 1t for feeding at night. That It
sleeps well is more important than
night feeding. Sick babies don't sleep.

hours; from three to six months seven
feelings in "a hours at intervals OF
three hours; from six to nine months

Clean bottles, clean nipples, clean
bedding-and clean baby.
Plenty Of fresh air plenty Of sleep
Regular feeding.
No coddling-leave the baby alone.

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 25.-He got

Dick and Burton have set-4n- motion
the report that Burton wants to back
Speaker Granville w. Mooney, OF Ash
tabula county.
Mooney, however, asserts that he Is
a candidate for secretary of state and
expects to be nominated. but there IS
belief that IL the exigencies OF the
situation demand 1t Mooney may be
sprung as a dark horse in an attempt

As the politicians now understand
Il the race now lies between Garfield
and Warren G.. Harding, OF Marion.
The shadow OF Foraker is growing
more and more dense about the Hard
ing camp. Since the establishment OF
headquarters for the former lieuten-
ant governor and the apparent be-
wilderment of the organization lead
ers, the old Foraker followers have
emerged from the woods with a
semblance of their old fighting en-
thusiasm.
The situation is Samusing to the on
lockers and there will be many sly
wink at the discontinue of Senator
Burton II he is compelled to nominate
Harding with the help of the Foraker
crowd. Such situation would rebound
to the political credit OF the man
whom Burton and his friends assisted
In driving into private life.
The latest word from the organiza-
ti,s camp leads TO the belief that
Burton has told his friends another
term OF Harmon would be better than
Garfield for governor.
