too, to start this boy on the proper
road to good health. education and
clean living"

DR.. Wiley, at 3 o'clock in the morn

after Harvey. jr., came into the world,
drew up pure food regulations for the
baby and his mother.
The best food in the world Is what

Master Wiley If DR.. Wiley has his way.
In this case, Mrs. Wiley seconds DR..
Wiley's baby diet, and says she will
follow her physicians and DR.. Wiley's
attending Mrs. Wiley who holds the
same views as he does regarding the
feeding of infants.
DR.. Wiley did not stop at giving d.
~rections for the feeding of his baby.
He started out by getting the young
citizen Of h District Of Columbia and
Indiana (for he has already declared
him to be a Hoosier) to taking a sun
bath.
Sun and fresh air are worth as
much as food to a baby" said DR..
Wiley. "In fact, sunshine and fresh
air are really food and should be given
a baby just as often and regularly as
it's food. My baby shall have plenty of
both"
The first thing after the sun came
out from behind some rain clouds DR..
Wiley carried his offspring from its

basked in the warm rays for several
minutes. Every day that Mrs. Wiley is
in the hospital DIR. Wiley will go there
and for a few minutes have his son in
the sun parlor.
