LITTLE TALKS ON BABYOLOGY

sands of mothers have become we'll &C.
through these lessons in Babyology.
They have found out why their babies
are delicate and how they can be made
strong. They have found out why
small chests were sunken and how
they could be developed, why small
stomachs and abdomens we're distend
ed and sore and how they could be
reduced to normal proportions; why
some babies who cry ought to be smil-
ing instead and how the smiles can
be coaxed back. To sum II up, the
study OF babyology has taught these
mothers that puny, sickly, fretful
baby is not a dispennation of provi-
dence but an unnecessary family bur
den, and grave reflection on the in
telligence of it's parents.

CONTRACT FOR COAL

The members of the board of dlrec-

received and opened three bids for the
coal supply for the coming year at a
meeting held late yesterday afternoon.
The Rock Island Sand & Gravel com.

cepted. This company offered fuel at

offered coal 10 the board at S3.S5.

Y. TRUSTEES ARE
NAMED BY BOARD
Prominent Rock Island Citizens
VIII Hold Title to Property
of Association.

ne title to the new Y. N. c. A.
building and grounds is to be held by
board of trustees, which has been
created under the revised constitution
of the association, and the members OF
which have been named by the board
of directors. The trustees elected are
as follows:
F. c. Denkman, H. f. Casteel, Will
H. Dart, H. S. Cable, C. w. Halves,
C. J. Larkin, Mrs. Mary l.. Robinson.
J. H. Hauberg. C. d. McLane, presi-
dent Of the association, is ex-officio
president of this board. These trus-
tees have but one duty, which is to
hold the title to all property owned
by the association, and to see that
the same is kept free from incum-
brance, and that it is properly used
for the work of the Y. NJ. c. A. When
the building is completed, it will be
turned over to this board by the build
ing committee, to be held in perpetual
! trust for the association.
This is the situation which puts the
building committee into such an en-
barrassing predicament just now. They
have to turn the building over to the
trustees to be held free from debt, and
they are having difficulty to clear
| the plant from debt in order to turn
it over. That is why they have been
compelled to take the position that
the building cannot be opened until
it is paid for
The building fund which was
pledged a year ago last March pro-
vided ample funds to pay for the plant
which has been erected under the di-
rection of the committee. All payments
were due on September l, so that those
, who have not yet paid up are about
six weeks in arrears. All payments
to contractors who have worked on
the building are falling due rapidly, as
the work is being completed, and sc

himself in the unpleasant situation Of

for some time, unless it is collected

already taken care of their payments

average physician has turned the baby
over to the parents, and under their
care it has. remained until 1t developed
some acute malady, when the doctor
re-appeared on the scene. The cure of
! the malady, not it's prevention, has
| long been the office of the family
| physician. They do it better in China,
where physicians are paid only so long
as the health Of the family is good.
! The world has also proceeded on
the theory that with the birth of the
baby was born in the mother some
heaven-sent knowledge Of how TO raise
the baby. To be sure, she was taught
to read and write and cook and sew,
but there was no need to teach her
/ how to raise her baby. BY some mys-
terious process, God supplied that
knowledge.
That He did not is shown by the fact
that 25 per cent of the deaths in our
! country are of children under l year
OF age.
The responsibility for baby-life does
not lie with the Creator, nor with the
mother, but with those whose duty II
is to see that every young woman is
taught babyology along with tie other
"ologies" included in the course OF
study set forth in public and private
schools.
i Another mistaken belief about ba
bies has been that they are born deli
cate" or strong; and, IS they are
born, so must they live-that is il they
live at all. The delicate baby has been
regarded as a dispensation Of Provi
dence, TO be accepted with patiencs
and resignation. Mother trotted and
dosed it by day, and father walked tbs
floor with it by night, and the neigh
bors pitied them both. The idea thai
the poor little tot was born with tht
, right to acquire strength and health
was not preached. The thought o.
calling in science to transform the dell
cate baby into strong one is compar
| atively new. 1t ia part of this won

During the past six months, Amer
lean women, leaders in progressive
movements for lettering humanity,
have brought to the attention of their
home-making sisters a new popular
science of great value in the family
circle.
At first, 1t was studied by few
mothers who found that it could sim

| brighter Then a few physicians who
had specialized on ailments of chill
dren saw its educational possibilities
and began to read, and then to write
about it. Health officers and city of
ficials who were fighting sickness and
poverty next took it up. Now fully
half the women's clubs of the country
! have included the subject in their pro
grams for 1894, and the gospel is
spreading from coast to coast
For lack of more technical term

TWO FIRES LAST WEEK.

Friday afternoon about $40 o'clock
to Huston Bros. confectionery on the

basement had caught fire from some
undetermined origin. The blaze
made considerable smoke, attracting
a large crowd to the scene, but II
was soon extinguished. The damage
was estimated at SIS, and the loss
was covered by Insurance.
The fire alarm was turned in Sat
VI day afternoon about 3:15 o'clock
calling the fire department to the
east end OF Arrow street. A pasture
had been set on fire. supposedly by
boys. and the neighbors feared that
adjoining property might be en-
dangered 80 the alarm was sounded.
The blaze was soon put out.
