The penal board has announced the
appointment of F E. Snyder of Bel
Iaire as parole officer, the appoint

]. D. Botkin succeeds J. X CodGSng
as warden of the state prison. Sny-
der was sergeant at arms in the house
during the recent legislative session
and for a number of years has taken
an active hand in political affairs in
northwestern Kansas.
Because of the appointment of
Thomas w. Morgan of Ottawa, to the
wardenship of the federal prison at
Leavenworth, there is a vacancy on
the penal board which must be filled
sometime this month. There are a
number of candidates for the place,
but their names are being carefully
guarded. Morgan, who leaves the
prison board this month, has served
on the board for six years. The last
two years he has been president of the
board and was regarded as a strong
man in prison work and management.
Last winter he was offered the ward
enship of the Lansing state peniten-
tiary by Governor Hodges, but de-
Der of the prison board is appointed,
w. L. (Ironjaw) Brown will act as
president
The board was in session this week
at Lansing and made a contract for
disposing of the old iron and brass
from the recent prison fire. Work on
the new prison buildings started this
week and the Irvine plant will be in
operation early in August. New ma
chinery for the plant has already been
purchased.

HE "PUT ONE OVER. "
Deputy Assessor Made Policeman
Holding Horse Look Foolish.

It remained for one of the deputy
assessors who recently completed the
personal property assessments for
1913 to put one over on a new
member of the police department.

There is an ordinance in Topeka
forbidding anyone to leave horses I'M

which will affect the baby's digestion

mother who is very tired from her

Perhaps you are not strong. Perhaps

They did. That mother learned that
her baby was drifting toward the dan

Babyology was how to alternate the
breast milk with a bottle feeding Of
modified milk.

The last article on this fascinating
fsubject of Babyology defined the
science of baby-study, and told how
1T had sprung from the Better Babies
contests.
Perhaps the most amazing feature of
my visits to these contests, where /
watched doctors and mothers examin-
" ing the babies, was the large number
I of women who did not know their own
babies. Oh, yes, they knew Babys
name, the color of his hair and his
eyes, the exact point where his cheek
1 or his chin broke into a delightful
4 dimple, the side of his family from
: which babyldns got his many good
: points and his few bad ones. the day
I when he had first sat up or toddled
across the floor. these and many other
: things the mothers knew, but still they
did not know what was going on inside
of baby, in the digestive apparatus IN
which so much OF his health and hap
piness depend.
OF course if Baby could talk, Mother
would know exactly how he feels, be-
cause he could explain where the ache
is located. But when ones means Of
communication is limited to wriggling,
and rolling up his eyes, and emitting
disturbed yaps, Mother must look for
signs or symptoms to take the place
OF worded complaints.
And there are SO many ways In
which the flesh, the skin, the eyes, the
very actions of a baby indicate that
his digestion is not in working order.
And when the digestion is not working,
Mother must go directly to the Cause
-Baby's food. We who are old and
strong and seasoned know what ills
follow the trail OF indigestion. How we
should sympathize with a tender baby
whose sufferings we can, alleviate by
just rightfng the system Of feeding.
IL the food does not agree with Baby

be drowsy and Hstless or fretfuI and
restless; he may be out of proportion

Here are some Of the things saw

physicians for physical proportions,
