Contract 70 Build a Town.

\ contract for 1000 buildings, to
include dwellings,, churches, schools,
theaters and other structures recently
made by the Consolidation Coal Co.
of Baltimore, indicates the magni-
tude of the operations under
way for the deN elopment of Its
great coal property of 100, 600
acres in the Elkhorn field of
Eastern Kentucky. The contract
was let to the Nichola Building Co.
of Pittsburg, and the contractors
are to establish saw and planning
mills, BRICK works and other shops
for providing material for the build
ing of the houses and the macadamiz-
ing of several miles of streets and
the building of lake. 1t Is also
proposed to establish electric light
and water plants.
This IS probably the largest con
tract for town building ever made
by one company with one contracting
company in this country. It's typ
ical of the magnitude of develop
ment work under way in Eastern

Swiss Funeral Customs.

Swiss funeral customs are most
peculiar. At the death of a person
the family inserts formal, black
edged announcement in the papers
asking for sympathy, and stating
that "the mourning urn" will be ex-
hibited during certain hours on a
special day. In front of the house
where the person died there is placed
a little black table covered with a
black cloth, on which stands a black
Jar. Into this the friends and ac-
quaintances of the family drop little
black margined visiting cards, some
times with few words of sympathy y
on them. The urn is put on the
table on the day of the funeral.
Only men ever go to the churchyard,
and they generally follow the hearse
on foot.

When the Baby Cries.

1t is astonishing to observe how
little imaginative insight most
women bring to bear upon the cry
ing of small infants.
The instructed modern woman
knows that all babes must and will
cry to some extent, and that 1t is
normal and healthy form of express
ion. At the same time, and this is
but natural, It Is much easier to
apply this theory to some other
woman's baby. y human mother,
whatever her theories, does not like
TO hear her own baby cry much.
Although her beliefs are modern,
her uneasiness Is distinctly primitive.
Crying is crying, and she does not
take pains to learn the Language
of a cry, therefore the crying baby
Is either fed, or rocked, or searched
for a safety pin.
This is not sympathetic treatment
\ baby has a multitude of reasons
tor expressing distress. and is quite
clever enough to vary Its crying
according to Its reason. Ii adults
were forcibly fed, or violently joun-
ced up and down, or stripped and
searched every time they grumbled,
this would be bad world TO live m.
Yet this is the treatment meted out
to small babies who cannot talk
back, or thump The table, or go out
aud bang the door.
1t is the duty of each mother to
study her baby's cry as if it were a
little foreign language. 1t is true,
she will soon hear the cry which
says, "lsn't it about feeding time?"
and the one that says, ri wish you
would be more careful when you
dress me- and the one that simply
calls for human companionship; but
she will also hear and learn to recog-
nize many others.
The cry fol- food usually begins
as sort of fretful, peevish whimper,
soon rising, as the baby's sense of
outrage grows, to a loud, angry
protest; but this cry is not in place
except at meal-ume. Sometimes
it means that very smart baby is
trying to enforce its will in spite of
rules. In such a case the rules must,
of course, be kept, but it Is only
fair to see if thirst is the trouble.
A baby has just as much right to a
drink of water as any one else, and
the drink Is just as good for it.
Fretful crying with restlessness at
sleeping time generally means over
feeding; the baby is suffering from
indigestion, and more food Is not
likely to be the remedy.
A loud cry, accompanied with
squirming and drawing up of the
legs, means some sort of pain IN the
abdomen, and no one could take
the explosive cry of anger or fright
for anything but what it is.
An incessant little worrying
whimper often means fatigue and
sleeplnesss. "Don't try to enter
tain me-just lay me down and
shade the light"
Make a study of this little Ian
4 guage, and save both yourself and
your baby much wear and tear.
