Common sense in Clothing.


Don't overhead the child with fan
nels and heavy clothing. The cloth
ing should be light particularly in hot
weather. After the child is three or
four months old, the flannel band is
unnecessary; it is uncomfortable in
hot weather and often affects dig
estion. 1t is more sensible to put on
light wrap mornings and evenings,
if the weather is cool
Give the baby its daily bath, at all
times. If the weather be very hot, it
will add to its comfort to sponge it
two or three times day with little
cool water.
Don't keep the child in hot, stuffy
room See that it has plenty Of pure
fresh air; encourage it to stay out in
the air. Even a child with fever, and
bowel complaint, does better out in
the air in pleasant summer weather
than in the close, hot room.
It Is well to allow young children
the utmost freedom compatible with
their safety. Let them do those
things that nature and instinct de-
mand. Let them sleep as much and as
long as they will. Insist that they
live in the open air and after they
have developed a sound and rugged
constitution, ample time will be left
them for mental development.
In a word, keep the child clean, and
keep it's food pure and clean. See
that it's food is of the right kind, age
and condition of health considered,
and don't give too much. Cut it down
when teething begins and in hot
weather, and give more water. See
that it is properly dressed and not
overheated give plenty of fresh air.
A careful observance of these rules
will conduce to the health, the proper
growth and development Of the child
and, necessarily, to the happiness OF
the mother.

TOWN NAMED ny ERROR.

It is not often that town is named
BY mistake but about one hundred and
f.ity years ago this thing happened, not
to ON, town, but to three towns in Yer
mont At that time grant Of land was
made by New Hampshire TO some Con-
nccticut settlers. This tract then, as now.
was divided into three townships: Bur
lington. on the hillside OF Lake Cham
plain. Colchester just north, and Willis
ton. cast The three towns We're charter
ed ON the same day, and 1t was at this
time that the names We're mixed.
The Burlington family took mp their
land I'm the north section CColchcsteD
and it seems to be true that their name
was TO have been given the town, so that
II should have been called Burlington.
other settlers took up the eastern portion
CWillistonD and the rest remained in tn"
part by the lake CBurlingtonD Among
these last was the Willis family, and
there is evidence that they expected to
call the city Williston. However there
was So much confusion in the entering
of the records that the town where the
Rurlings settled was called Colchester
the town Of the Willis family was named
Burlington. while the town to the east
was called Wiluston. And SO they have
remained to this day.-ENchanga

Salvatore Noccro's whole life was ccn-
tered in his lS-year-old wife, whom he

Daniels Gathers Eggs;

CECRETARY Of the Navy Daniels
y the other day disclosed the fact
that he keeps at his country place
near Washington some ninety chick
ems, that yield him every day twenty
eggs, and he thereby put himself in
line for a lot Of trouble.
For when Secretary Of State Bryan,
who keeps a riding horse by the name
of Rex, but who owns no chickens,
heard about his colleagues wealth. he
made the proposal that Mr.. Daniels
ought to divide those fresh eggs
the other members Of the cabi-
net. Mr. Daniels has not yet been
heard from on the proposal. but the
general opinion is that If the secretary
OF state wants any Of the eggs from
the Daniels chicken coop. he will have
to mount his horse Rex some morn
ing before daybreak and ride out and
get them himself.
Secretary Daniels said incidentally
that he is opposed to having the
clerks Of the government departments
report at 8 o'clock, because 1t would
necessitate his making his morning
rounds to gather eggs at least In hour
earlier each day. Mr.. Daniels allows
himself to be an hour later than the
clerks Of his department, but makes

Had Two Points Of Beauty.

Tasmania's pretty girls of European
lineage have never been tempted to
follow the fashion of the native Tas-
manian women, who had all their hair
removed with a flint and went bald.
The last pure blooded Tasmanian
woman died in 1876, aged seventy-six;
the last man In 1876. aged thirty.four.
A traveller says that the native had
two fine points-eyes and teeth. The
eyes were prominent and often Of
great beauty and brilliancy, and a
dentist Of wide experience knew Of no
teeth equal to the Tasmanian's for
strength, size and enamel. But the
nose was bridgeless the chin ran on"
and the upper jaw protruded.

ACanned0 indian SONGS to Be Placed in Archives

the monographs under the direction
of Mr.. O'Hara. The Indians could
hardly grasp the idea at first Of how
they could sing into a tin horn and
thereby record their music. After
the first song had been sung, how
ever, the reproduction wal given them
in a few minutes and the magic Of the
operation was bewildering to them.
They thought 1t was the most 0
derful of all the wonders. they have
seer since their invasion Of the east.
Mr.. O'Rara is arranging to visit
Glacier National park early this sum-
mer and complete his records of the
Blackfeet tribe there.
Through the interior department
arrangements were made to take
these records privately in New York
in an out-of-the-way loft. There is
one song in particular which the
Glacier Park Indians sing, in which
musical critics find considerable
merit. This is a song descriptive Of
the Blackfeet Indians love of his
home environment. Big Top. the In
dian interpreter, says:
MY people always sing this song,
because when they go away from the
mountains their hearts are lonely,
and 1t makes them think of home,

KEEPING. THE CHILDREN COOL
Back Yard Shower Bath Which Fresh
n Them and Helps to Pass the
Hot Days Pleasantly.

In Pasadena, a bunch" of little
children have the most delightful
kind of a shower bath each afternoon,
and the suggestion may appeal to
other mothers. Their back yard bath
is completely surrounded by a lux
uriant hedge Of pomegranite covered
in turn by the beautiful morning
glories. About three o'clock the chill
dren undress In the house, putting on
a regular bathing suit. Then each
child grasps her own tin bathtub and
with her slippers and pretty lowered
Japanese kimono rolled under her
arm makes a grand rush for the a
den. The tubs are set down in any
place desired, the slippers laid aside,
kimono and bath towels hung up be-
hind the garden door and the fun be-
gins. Each child in turn gets the
hose and plays it In the tubs and on
each other until the tubs are filed
and all the children soaking wet.
Then each child makes for its own
tub which is full of Overlooking.
Down they sit until just the curly
heads and shoulders rise above the
rim. Then father or mother come on
the scene, the tubs ~splashing over are
reilled and then the children, one by
one, stand up and initiate their chests,
while the hose is turned directly on
them. Brown as berries are these
children, bright Of eye and firm OF
muscle. A little longer splashing and
out they jump n by one to strip,
rub down, and don slippers and XII.
monos for a little run about the yard
before going in to dress for dinner.

In the evening, and guests arriving for

from Mrs. Townsend's found the great
Dane at the steps.
One guest, whose dog is a dainty,

getting past the great Dane, who
seemed greater and greater as he
stood above her, on the topmost step,
across the carved walnut doors.
When she finally accomplished it.,

OLD TABLOID RECORDS FOUND
French Government Unearths $4,000
Tablets in Babylon-ShoW In
ventlons of Centuries Ago.

I'VE think we are a great people,"
said the retired army officer, taking
off his glasses, land we feel that we
are progressing at a tremendous
pace, but here's a newspaper account
saying that the French government
has unearthed In Babylonia $4,000 tab
let's, giving a history in full Of the
reign of the ancient kings. Here we
find for the first time that Babylon,
and not Rome, was the real Mother
of Law In those days there was a
system of courts and of appeals that
v suggested a recall. Sir, this re-
port also states that during the days
af NebuchadnezEar they had a free
rural delivery of mail over every high
way in the kingdom. And, shades Of
Grover Cleveland!-it has also been
proved beyond a doubt that the Egyp-
tian government in $500 B. C. had a
perfected system Of civil service.
There is a record that the first tur-
bine engine was invented by the
Egyptians, and that Archimedes de-
vised this mechanical continuance by
which the fields could be watered
when the Nile was low. This Is the
same principle that. is used to drive
the latest additions to the Cunard-
ers."
What shocked the doughty old
American most of all was the informa-
ton that four thousand years ago
the photograph was used in ancient
Egypt, and was in reality only per
fected by Edison in the nineteenth
century. There is evidence also OF
the use Of wireless telegraphy before
the Christian era, while the Egyptian
alphabet has proven to be a scientific
key to organized human speech. 1t Is
a hard blow to our self-sufic iency to
find that the banjo of the southern
plantation with It's fascinating
"thrum' only echoes the musical In,

historic times.-"Affairs at Washing

nailed to the drop-leaf; then, by
throwing the hasp over the staple
and slipping a paddock through the
staple, not only the cover will be
locked, but the drop-leaf will be also.
Procure a pair of t~runk-handIes, win
dow-sash lifts or drawer-pulls for han
dies, and screw n to each end OF
the box.
The tray should be made a tritle
shorter than the inside length OF the
box, about one-half OF the width of the
box, and three or four inches deep,
and a small strip should be tackled to
each end of the box, inside, for a
cleat to support the tray. Hooks and
pockets may be fastened to the in
side of the cover, to hold tools, and
the bottom of the chest may be par
titioned off with strips for the planes,
saws, etc.
Stain the chest any color you wish
to have it, making a stain of oil paint
thinned with turpentine, and when
this has been allowed to soak in give
the wood a coat or two of shellac.
1t Is very handy to have a tool-rack
back Of the workbench, or on the
wall within easy reach of the bench,
to hold tools between operations, and
a simple form for such a rack ID
shown In Fig. 5. The lower shelf Is
intended to rest upon the bench-top,
If you fasten the rack to the bench,
and it supports the ends OF bits and
other small tools dropped into the
holes in the shelf directly above 1t.
Cut the two shelves of equal proper
lions, Bore holes through the upper
one, spacing them about as shown in.
Fig. 6, and then with a saw and chisel
cut slots in the back edge OF the
piece and nail a narrow strip such
as is shown in Fig. 6 to the shelf, to
form a back to the slots Zig. 81.
Spools OF various sizes should be
screwed or nailed to the upper hori-
zontal pieces of the rack, to hang
tools upon.
If you fasten the rack to your
bench, screw the lower shelf to the
bench-top and the lower ends of the
uprights tosthe back of the bench.
Do not leave your tools in the rack
when you are through working. 1t
will be too great a temptation for
somebody to borrow a tool now and
then, which they may forget to re-
turn to its place. Put everything
away in your chest, and you will al.
ways know where to find 1t.
