Fresh Air for Baby.

An abundance OF fresh air is as neces'
sary for the health of baby as plenty
of sleep and nourishing food. With the
exception OF few stormy days, the baby
should be taken out of doors ever cay.
Besides this, it must have plenty Of fresh
air in the living and sleeping rooms.
There is no danger of having too much
fresh air. In too many homes cold
weather and necessary fires mean stutfy
rooms. How common it is to see Tie en-
tire family huddled aroand the stove IN
the evening all breathing and rebrcath-
ing the foul air. The old expression,
trying to heat the whole outdoors, .
has been so impressed upon their minis
that, by trying to keep all the heat N,
they keep all the fresh air out, Some
houses never are ventilated during the
winter months. The only fresh air that
gains an entrance is the small quantity
that rushes in whenever door is opened
TO allow some person to pass in or
out.
The effect of this lack of ventilation
is seen in the pale, drawn faces Of the
family. Mothers face becomes wrinkled
and drawn, not with age, but with
oxygen starvation.

Fathers Work and Mothers Play

Fathers weary every evening
When his work is at ON end
That's at o'clock. and homeward
Then his way he'll quickly wend,
And he'll quickly eat his supper
And he'll stretch out in a chair,
And he'll get the daily paper
And he seems contented there.
Amt no wonder fathers tired;
Every morning he gets up
When the clock strikes 6 and then he
Drinks his coffee, just cup,
And he hurries off TO labor.
And he works hard ali the morn
After noon he's got to hustle,
So by 9 he's quiet well worn.
Now with mother il is different
She is busy all the day,
But she never seems to weary,
She says her works oaly play.
She gets up at each morning.
Sees that breakfast is prepared,
Then she packs up fathers lunch box,
Sees that all the rooms are aired.
Then she gets us youngsters started,
Gets us up and gets us dressed,
Helps us wash our hands and faces,
Brushes out the hair that's messed !;
Then she gives to us our breakfast,
And she starts us on our way
To the schoolhouse round the corner,
And she says, "be good to-day"
After that, she says she hasn't
Anything at all TO do,
Except to wash the dishes
And to sweep room or two.
Then of course she has some baking,
And perhaps must scrub the floor,
And perhaps she does some washing
Then she hurries to the store.
Then she thinkers round with dinner,
And by that time school is out,
And she meets us all with kisses
Asks what we have been about.
After dinner then she starts us
On our way to school again
With advice that we should always
Act like ladies and like men.
After that she'll maybe iron
Or she'll dust, or maybe sew,
Till it's time to get some supper
Father'll soon be here, you know
And she'll get a corking supper,
And she asks us all about
What we did in Che school room,
And what after school was out.
Father comes home awful tired;
Mother greets him with kiss,
Then he kisses all us youngsters,
And he says that "this is bliss"
Then when he takes to his reading.
Mother gets her thread and yarn.
And she gets the clothes and stockings,
And she starts to mend and darn.
Darns except when we disturb her
With our questions, then she tells
How to solve our little problems,
And our hardest words she spells.
Then she tells to us a story,
And she sends us off to bed,
But she sits and works long after
All the good-nights have been said.
Fathers weary every evening.
Cause he works so awful hard,
But with mother it is different
Seems that she is never Jared
By her work, but then quite often.
/ have heard my mother say
That she never tires-how could she, !
When her work is only play?

Suppose Your Baby Is Mark Twain
or an Edison or a Lincoln.

or an Edison or a Lincoln.
Kathleen Norris, writing a story in
the June Woman's Home Companion,
makes two of her characters carry on
the following conversation:
eff we women stuck to our jobs With
the intelligence and perseverance with
which our husbands are obliged to stick
to theirs said Mrs. Burgoyne thought
fully, we'd feel terribly abused But it
seems to me we don't begin to know
how overwhelmingly important we are
But you can hire lot of it done as
well as you can do it yourself, protested
the doctors wife, unconvinced.
"'Well, can you? That's the point.
Suppose, for instance, Mrs. Brown. you
and | knew that one Of those children
down there was Lincoln, or Thomas
Edison. or Mark Twain, how much
would we feel to blame for turning that
child over to a nurse, while we raced to
the club to hear paper on the Child
hood of Napoleon"
"eBut lots and lots of children dis
appoint their parents bitterly said Mrs.
Browns vigorously.
Well, we expect angels, / suppose,
Mrs. Burgoyne agreed thoughtfully.
We don't want our boys to marry little
fluffy headed dolls, or to become firemen
when we've planned their careers at the
bar. And there's the horror of the first
suspicion of bad company, and of smok-
ing, and OF drinkingl' She sighed.
Still. it's just that much more lone
for the world she added hopefully. or
attempted, at least, than guarding the
valuable life of Pomeranian, or going
to New York for new furs.'

The Tip That Charles Dickens Sent Hans
Christian Andersen.

In the June Woman's Home Compare
ion appears the following:
at is told of Dickens that he once
CHANGED ON this Persian proverb When
the Shah's horses were being shod. the
beetle stretched out his leg Immodiatc-
ly he sent it to his friend, Hans Chris
tian Andersen. saying, Here is a subject
made to your hand. Write story on
this theme And Andersen sat down
and wrote the famous story, "The Beetle
Goes on His Travels Do you know it?
If you do not, read it. The story Of an
egotstic little beetle beetle who reads
the whole world by his own little tiny
experience"
