.DR. APPELLANTS .| SUGGESTIONS TO
 YOUNG MOTHERS
How to Save the Lite Tots From
 Illness These Hot Days
Cleanliness and Proper Diet the Only SaNa-
 ton For Babies During Midsummer

nipple after using. Babies often gel
 "sore mouth, 7 wind colic,'' and
 summer complaint from want o1
 care of the nursing bottle.
 Cleanse the bottle immediately af- ter feeding.
 Cleanse the nipple thoroughly out side and inside. Nipples with tubes
 are convenient for lazy mother, but
 mean death to the baby.
 To prepare Barley Water for the
 Baby. When the baby is four or five
 weeks old, barley-water should be us
 ed in the place of plain water. P1lt
 two tablespoonsfu1 of pearl barley in
 to- four cups of cold water; boil m
 hour or more until the amount of wa
 ter is reduced to two cups. Then
 strain through a. clean cloth; add a
 pinch of salt, and sweeten to breast
 milk taste. Add this to. a cup of
 scalded cows milk as before describ-
 ed, and begin feeding this strength
 Use more cows milk gradually and less barley water until at about six
 months of age the child is getting
 two-thirds milk and one-third barley
 water. This will make as good food as the baby can get during teethine and Weaning. After this time, then
 one can use pure milk scalded as be-
 fore; bread and milk; rice and milk; baked potatoes and milk; oatmeal porridge (wen cooked) and milk (the
 milk always to be scalded, not boil ed). No other foods are necessary except those mentioned above. Bathing. Keep the baby clean and it will stand the heat better. q should have at least one full bath every day, and oftener during extreme heat. Never bathe the baby within an hour after feeding it. Bathe first Feed afterWard.
 Clothing and Fresh Air. Dress al lightly as possible in. hot weather Keep the baby in the open air out oi the hot sun. At night keep the windows open, but have them screen ed and keep out the flies. Wher the weather turns suddenly cool care
 must be taken to avoid chilling. thin soft flannel binder wound twf or three times around the body shoul6 Ebe wound smooth and free from creases or folds, and fitted with 2 few stitches of soft alarming cotton;
 Do not let the baby sleep in ths same bed with any other person. Ii there is no crib, the mother should putsa a couple of chairs at her bedside with a soft covering on them, and lei the baby sleep there. It will be more comfortable on summer night thar laying against the hot body of its mother. and will not be so apt to dis. turb others, or to be disturbed. The backs of the chairs will keep the Baby from falling and the mother can readily reach over to care for il when necessary.
 If the baby vomits, has diarrhoea
 or seems sick, stop all milk and give
 nothing but warm water in the nurs-
 ing bottle and send for the doctor.
