For Your Baby's Sake-Nurse IT."

The health department of Chicago is waging
a very effective war against infant mortality.
Among the many ideas used by the health de-
partment was poster that contained the follow
ing information and plea:
THE LONG vs. THE SHORT HAUL
Seventy per cent of city babies get their food
through tube so miles long.
1t takes about SO hours-often AZ hours-for
milk to run from the end of the tube to the
baby end of the tube.
This tube is open in many places and baby S
food is frequently polluted. 1t is often wrongly
kept in overheated places
Then there may be diseased COW at the coun-
try end of the tube.
And yet some people wonder why many
babies die!
On the other hand the mother-fed baby gets
it's milk fresh, pure and healthful-no germs can
get into it.
To lessen baby deaths let us have more moth
er-fed babies.
You can't improve on Gods plan.
For your baby's sake-nurse it
With but slight changes what is true of Chi
cago is true of Richmond babies. Statistics show
ing how many Richmond babies are bottle-fed are
not at hand. Chicago's statistics, however, will
probably hold true for Richmond. Of course the
tube from the end to the baby end is not as
long here it is in Chicago. Chicagos greater
baby population forces the tube farther afied in
search of baby food. But Rchmonds tube runs
just as great risk of communicating it's babies
food supply as Chicago's.
Each summer a number of Richmond babies
die. Physicians attribute infant mortality
to impure and germ infected milk or other food
Richmond mothers who bring their babies into
the world after much pain and suffering, should
value their little charges so highly that they will
continue to exercise all the functions of mother
hood. And nursing the babies personally is one
of the greatest of these.
For your babys sake-nurse it,!

that tic barometer had been low on the two
preceding days, but was then CON the 9th)
rising. 1t Is Of course possible that the
TInIdad storm was local, but the fan Of the

the wind seemed to shcw that it WAS part of
a cycloplc movement. 1t Is true that we
miss from the report all mention of the
northwest wind, which on the south side of
a cyclone moving westward should precede
the other two directions mentioned. but
perhaps its omission, assuming it to have
occurred, may have arisen from the wind
beng then not 50 strong n later when it
blew from the west, and also from its htvinp-
been earlier in the night, when tile wind
changes would be less noticed.

Auckland has doubled. and the city is
today the metropolis of New Zealand
and one of the most important ports in
Australasia. Although the coming ex-
position is not advertised as 'interna-
tional." every attention will be given
to exhibits coming from abroad. The
United States has a total annual trade
with New Zealand of about $10.75O,000.

try for 1911 was SS,20O,029. which

Oil For BattIeships.

The last American battleship that
will burn coal has been built. The big
ones now building have no coal bunk
ers and no arrangement for burning
coal. They are oil burners.
"What is the advantage?' I asked
United States naval officer.
''There are many advantages in OIL
he replied. First we can steam farther
with a given number of tons of oil than
with the same number of tons of coal.
We can also store the oil more advan-
tageously, for it will fill corners in a
ship where coal could not be placed.
"a very big advantage, however, is in
the reduced number of men required to
handle the boilers. One man with oil
can take the place of four men shovel
ing coal. Usually the oil is sprayed
into the furnace. but there are several
methods of applying the OIL"
This officer said that the United
States will have some very valuable
oiling stations in Alaska. Arrange
ments are already making to establish
oiling stations in place Of coaling sta
tions in various other parts Of the,
world.-Philadelph Ledger.

Roses in the Days Work.

To the attention Of those persons who
believe they have done all they should
do when they have worked the speci-
fed number of hours and performed
the duties specified in their bonds the
example of W. II. Bancroft, vice presi
dent of the Salt Lake road, is respect
fully referred.
When Mr.. Bancroft was a younger
man he acted as agent at way station
in a deserted part of the west. One
day the president of the road happened
to stop and noticed, to his surprise, that
instead of the usual bare surroundings
the small shack was literally set in a
bower of roses. He went inside, took a
look at Bancroft, got his name and put
him down for promotion.
"a man who will take such care Of
company property would be a good
man in higher place." he said as the
train pulled out. And Mr.. Bancroft
has been going higher ever since.
There are a good many ways of plant
ing roses about our everyday work.
Anyway, it's an experiment worth the
trying.-New York American.

Family Baseball.

Charley Smith, father of Ben Smith,
partner of Hugh Jennings on the vaude-

professional baseball into Newark, n. I.
Charley Smith caught for semipro-
fessional team, while Ben played right
field. This is one Of the few cases
where a father and son played on the
same outfit. There are only two other
instances we can recall. One is when
Jim O'Rourke. the old Giant, played
with his son on the Bridgeport team in
the Connecticut league. The other is
when the father of Kid Carsey, the old
Philadelphia and st. Louis pitcher,
taught the Kid to pitch when he was
youngster pitching for semipro teams
around New York and vicinity. Carsey
senior was the Kids catcher.

Not Enough Goatskins.

The present demand for goat kid
skins exceeds anything of the kind be-
fore known. and the remotest places
in India, South America and Europe
and everywhere else goats are kept are
now visited by collectors to obtain
them. This demand arises from the
recent discovery of new methods of
treating the skins, which not only
make them a substitute for calf kid
as shoe leather, but also render them
suitable for US in dress trimming.
When specially dyed and finished they
find great favor with dressmakers and
are used for vests. strappings. pipings,
blouses and even for underskirts for
country wear They also play part
in recent millinery.-New York Trib-

LIGHT AND FLEXIBLE
SPRING HATS.
Made Of Such Materials as
Chip and Japanese Straw.

japanese straw forms many of the
modish hats this spring and, owing to
it's lightness Of weight and flexible tex
ture, bids fair to crowd some of the
other straws into the background.
White chip shapes, velvet trimmed,
are numerous and often very attrac-
tive. They are fashioned with close,
upturnel brims and rounds crowns.
One French miliEer has used these
shapes with no trimming save artistic
knots and outstanding loops of velvet
ribbon.
A turban of white chip had the edge
of the rolled brim trimmed with black
velvet about three-quarters of an inch
in width. while at the right side front
it was ornamented with knot and high
standing wired loops Of the velvet to
give the proper height.
Included in the same display was the
smartest of little French hats in white
chip on turDan lines, with the rolled
brim faced with black velvet Direct
ly in front was placed the new dagger
ornament Of jet.
The same milliner also showed 4 hat
of chip much on the line Of the roll
brim French sailor. with brim rolling
slightly upward but much longer at
the back than at the front sides.
There was no trimming save little
punches Of tiny roses, set closely to-
gether all around the low round crown.
No two punches were the same color,
but they covered the range Of ali the
delicate tintS. melting into each other
without a single jarring note. This
model was simple enough so far as
line was concerned, but an infallible
color sense was needed for the sue
cessful shading Of the floral trimming.
Another hat, narrower Of brim and
more aggressive, was Of chip. 1t was
built much on the order Of the English
walking hat, but the outline was sof-
tened by dull blue ostrich feather
which encircled the crown. One large
feather was poised directly at the front
of the crown.
Touches of cerise appear in the
spring millinery. and in some cases the
entire hat is made Of ceriSe. \ jaunty.
small shape had full crown of ceriSe
taffeta. and a large bow Of cerise taf-
feta trimmed the back of the hat. The
turned up brim was Of cerise straw.

One Of our best known astronomers
was talking about the difficulties and
intricacies that astronomy presents to
the lay mind.
"For instance" he said, "there is the
story of the meteorite that fell on an
Essex farm a year ago. It was valu-
able meteorite, and the landlord claim
ed it at once.
"'All minerals and metals on the
land belong to me- he said. That's in
the lease
"But the tenant demurred. This me-
teorite,' he said, wasn't on the farm,
you must remember, when the lease
was drawn up
"This was certainly poser, but the
landlord was equal to the occasion, for
he promptly retorted, We'll, then,
claim it as flying game
But the tenant was ready for him.
It's got neither wings nor feathers he
said. Therefore as ground game it is
mine

ued their argument I cannot say, for at

Is it longing for company makes you ad-

But she spoke not a word as she snug

I unused to myself as she sat there alone:

Why, surely should have the respect she

For here was chance that l never should

thought of the bliss

So I cried. II am sure as look at your

Coined "Home Rule"

In view Of the passage of the home
rule bill by the house of commons it is
interesting to recall the beginning of
that movement. according to Barry
O'Brien. author Of ''The Life of Charles
Stewart parnell," it was at a meeting
at the Billion hotel. Dublin, in 1870 that
the movement was launched. and it
was Isaac Butt counsel for the Fenian
prisoners, who invented the phrase
'home rule" He thought these words
reasonable and innocent, while the old
