DON'T CUDDLE THE BABY.
Kissing, Too, Is Forbidden by the Head of a New York.
 Nursery.

New York American babies are being loved to death. They are kiss Cd and hugged and dawdled until they die. It doesn't make a baby hap py to coddle him It makes him mis- erable If mothers would consider that a baby has rights the same as a grown person, there would be fewer sick babies and much of this harmful affection would be abandoned
 Mrs. Mary Hines, matron of the Sunnyside Day Nursery in Boston, makes this statement and pr. Walker Bersel. superintendent of the depart ment of child hygiene for the board of health, declares that it is true.
 "Unquestionably it would be better for a baby never to kiss it. or even to handle it except when necessary" Doctor Bensel said. But every nor nal mother is going to have some pleasure with her child and nobody would think of denying her.
 If baby is properly taken care of in other ways. a moderate amount of caressing does no special harm. But Children can certainly he loved to death,' if by love is meant continual handling and dawdling Their whole nervous system is disorganizeG." - Memphis Commercial Appeal.
