be opposed to him politically.

Baby Dont's.

Don't feed baby every time it cries.
Don't take it up and hold 1T because
it cries.
Don't let visitors and relatives
pinch, poke and pat baby to make it
laugh.
Don't let all the children in the
neighborhood kiss baby. 1t may con-
tract disease.
Don't imagine that woman does
not like your baby because she does
not kiss it or ask to hold it. She
may think it very lovable, and her
heart may be yearning to hold the
little baby close to her, but she prob
ably does not believe that the baby
has no rights.
Don't forget to give baby a drink
of water often. Sometimes it cries
for it and is given food instead.
Don't give baby a "pacifer. -
Every child who uses one has home
ly mouth-one resembling that of a
sucker fish more than that of human
being.

Mothers Contributions for
Baby.

For constipation inject one teas
poonful of warm glycerine into the
rectum with an infants syringe. This
is more satisfactory than medicines
in the stomach.
If nose is stopped up insert small
piece of vaseline about the size of a
grain of wheat into each nostril.
Rub slightly and dry particles can
soon be gotten out.
For swollen gums when teethlng,
pour hot water over pinch of borax.
When cool wash mouth with absorbent
cotton dipped into this borax solu-
ton. Sometimes add few drops of
camphor to a little water and rub
gums. 1t will allay inflammation and
ease pain.
For collie put hot water into the
hot water bag, lay baby down and put
bag over the little stomach. Have
some cloth between 1T and the soft
flesh.
For sweetning the little stomach and
regulating the bowels, give prune juice
instead of drugs. Wash and soak
sweet prunes over night. Cook long
time until the juice is very dark.
Dose one teaspoonful for young
child. One tablespoonful for larger
one.
Give baby a drink of water often,
especially when fretful.
If you are going on a journey get
two thermos bottles. Your druggist

what it means to child to be welcome
and to be received with feeling of
deep responsibility, to not only its
physical and intellectual develop

them in. The inside was lined with
pink cambria put on smooth and fast
ened with brass headed tacks. The
outside was covered with a greenish
shade of cretonne put on in box
pleats. The box was padded, then
covered smooth with the cretonne
and all finished with the tacks. This

to look at. The little garments we're
all twenty -four inches in length so
there will never be extra work "put-

skirts we're made to button on the
shoulder and under the arm so that
they can be removed without taking
off the dress. The bands were of soft
flannel simply torn, no hens at all to
chafe the flesh. One yard made six
strips. The shirts were ready made
The squares we're bird s eye diaper and
cost about ten cents apiece, which l
was assured was no more than would
be if made of any of the ordinary
coarse materials. 1t would take too
much space to describe the garments,
but the material was fine enough to be
dainty yet heavy enough to give good
service. The number considered
sufficient was three dozen squares,
six bands, four shirts, four flannel
skirts, six white ones, one dozen
dresses and six night dresses. Then
there was all sorts of sacques. kimonas,
blankets, etc.

Baby Blindness.

In the department devoted to health
of the child welfare art exhibit recent
ly held in Chicago a startling exposi-
ton was made of the prevalence of
blindness due to Inflammation of the
eyes at birth or soon after. Sixteen
out of thirty two at the school at
Jacksonville, Illinois are blind from
this cause and in other schools the per
cent is as high as forty. Since 1881
it has been known that blindness from
this cause is easily prevented, and if

How the Baby Came to Town.

(By Nelly A. M. Cook
A great white stork on the window
tapped
Sing . bye low .,t
With his long red beak on the window
raped,
Sing o bye low
Good people, " he cried, ''get ready,
pray,
"For in just three days | shall pass
this way,
"And I'll bring as a gift wee small
boy
'For Mothers comfort and Fathers
joy"
Sing o bye low, bye low!
The great white stork to the marshes
flew,
Sing o bye low!
With his long red legs he waded
through,
Sing o bye low
And there 'mong the flags and grasses
Was the dearest baby that ever was
seen;
SO the dear old stork flew far and fast
Bringing our baby boy at last.
Sing o bye low, bye low

remedy there would never. again be
case of blindness from this cause.
The medical department of New York,
Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Ohio,
Indiana and West Virginia give every
physician or woman attendant a. vial
of the remedy who ask for it.
The simple treatment is just to put
one drop of two per cent nitrate OF
silver into each eye of the new born
baby. 1t kills the germ which causes
the inflammation. 1t does no harm to
the normal eye.

Mothers Number.

We have been asked why the Home
Department never has any thing to
say about the care of babies, that a
little on that subject now and then
would prove very acceptable to many
readers.
We admit that the subject is an in
teresting one, but we will also have
to admit that the only thing we know
about them is that we were one some
thing more than a quarter and some
thing less than half of a century
ago.
When it comes to dealing with child
rem who can be taught to reason and
govern themselves, we feel that our
past experience would prove general
help. However, we gathered a few
ideas that seem to be "safe and
sound.' Some were kindly sent in
the form of clippings, the rest we're
given by real, and prospective mothers.
A long time ago [ read one of lnger-
soils essays which contained the
following thought, but perhaps is in
correctly quoted "Men are the oaks,
women are the vines, children are
the flowers, and if there is any heaven
on earth it is in the home. 1t is
where the wife loves the husband, the
husband loves the wife, and where the
dimpled arms of children are about
the necks of both.'
Not all homes are so fortunate as to
have the little toddlers about, but there
are some where too much thought
is given to their welfare other than
to just love them and furnish them
food and raiment. A short time ago
it was my good fortune to be guest
in home where the great white stork
is expected to make his first visit in
this beautiful June month, the time
of roses. 1t was my pleasure to have
a peep at the dainty little garments
laid away so carefully in gem of a
box made by the combined efforts of
the prospective parents. AS | watch
ed the woman pick up each little
piece with reverent hand, and saw
the shy half-awakened mother love
beaming from her eyes, and heard

can get them for you. Into the cold
bottle put the prepared food without
water. Into the other put boiling
water. When feeding time comes
merely add the hot water to the food.
1t is all ready to use. Never put
the prepared food or milk into the
bottle for heat.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1911-06-15

We wish to thank those who have
written US such kind words of ap-
probation of our efforts to make
this page helpful. We also thank the
senders of clippings. We are glad of
ideas though of course we do not ex-
pect to be guilty of plagiarism.

STRATTAN APPEARS
TO Be THE VICTOR
Will Probably Be Reelected
to the School Board by
a Close Vote.

1t has been decided by the Women S
City Federation Of clubs that the name
of Miss Sarah Hill. former Richmond
school teacher. and a well informed
woman on school affairs, will be nomi-
mated for the election of member of
the school board. regardless of whom
she opposes. There was at first some
hesitancy shown by the woman club
members in opposing s. S. Strattan,
Jr., who, 1t is almost certain, will be
a candidate for reelection, but condi.
fight to the finish. The women are
canvassing councilmen for votes.
Monday nights meeting promises
to be a hot one. There is some oppo-
sition to Mr.. Strattan although the
present outlook seems to point to his
election by a close vote. The women
will present the name of their candi-
date to the clerk, who will give it to
council. 1t is not likely that Miss Hill
will be elected, but her chances would
be somewhat better, if Mr.. Strattan
would drop out Of the race.
The name OF Rev. Thomas Graham,
has been suggested as candidate.
His supporters argue that as the board
is now represented by business and
professional men. a minister, man
who could devote much time to school
work, would be an ideal official.
If Miss Hill is made a member OF
the school board the Women's Fedora.
ton would attempt a general shake
up in the schools. One thing discuss
ed was the retiring of some of the old
err teachers.
Teachers, like ministers, outlive
their usefulness, said a member of
the federation today. I'VE feel that
the old teachers have a bad influence
on children, especially old women
teachers in the primary grades. In
the upper grades. and in high school
it is not SO bad"
