MEASUREMENTS AND
 WEIGHTS OF BABY.

Many mother is interested to know the size of the average infant, and to compare her own with what is considered as a standard. The fol- lowing measurements are given by Dr. Holt. and may be accepted as aver age:
 At birth. Height-2oh inches; chest 1311s inches; head, IA inches.
 One year. Height-29 inches; chest, IS inches; head, IS inches.
 Three years. Height-35 inches; chest 20 inches: head 19A, inches.
 The matter of the weight is one which should be watched more care fully; the gain in flesh is a good in dication as to whether or not the child is thriving. and often determines the amount and character of it's nourish- ment. During the fifth month a baby's weight is supposed to be doubled; at the end of year it should be tripled For the first six months there should be weekly weighing; at the end of the first week there will probably be a slight loss, which should be regained during the second week. After this there should be weekly gain of from four to six ounces until the child is six months of age; this rate will be reduced during the next six months when the increase in weight will be from two to four ounces each week. After the first year an annual gain of four or i've pounds is all that can be years of age.
 Special emphasis must be laid upon the advisability of weighing the baby regularly during the first year. when 9 change of food is made.-Woman's World for May

If you don't agree with me, that here at least is an item of woman's dress that even Man, the scoffer, must ap- prove.
 He will inevitably put it in the class of the simple muslin which always fascinates the masculine eye, but fre- quently disenchants him when the pocketbook is touched
 The mouse dress" has the former virtue without the latter disadvan- tage.
 Take for example this one at SIPS: made of tan linen, it's trimming was of black and white inserted as a re- yer, sailor collar and a deep hem. The suit was in one piece with a high belt piped in black and white.
 Where the sailor collar opened in front was a smart little black satin bow.
 Would you mind wearing this on a summer afternoon when you sit on the porch waiting for Him" to come home or to call? I guess not. And, say 1t over again, one dollar and twen- ty-f1ve cents!
 The second in the trio was of lay- ender linen-linen is particularly fa- vored for these little gowns of knock about quality.
 This was severely plain-a one-piece suit. save that trimming broke out in a conventional braiding on the net was inserted.
 This was s1.75.
 Getting up to the stupendous price of g, found an all white merceriz- ed foulard, which is this seasons near silk' product that can be bought for 12 1-2 cents a yard, and is really lovely.
