the State Historical Society of Iowa
In the iowa Applied History Series
FIGURE lT OUT.

In the house ways and means
committee Chairman Underwood
said that the democrats did
not propose to play fayorites as
between Industries in the work Of
carrying out the party pledge for re-
vision downward; that while he hopeo
there never would be a democratic
tariff so below the reasonable com,
petitive basis as to close down any
factories in the country, he and 9TH
ers OF the committee wanted to write
such rates as would stimulate reas-
enable competition, says the Burling-
ton Hawk-Eye.
This raises the inquiry, what Is the
democratic idea Of sreasonable com
petitive basis that viii promote the
interests of the American people
How much OF Importation of boots
and shoes-the subject tnen under
consideration by the committee
would be 'reasonable?" Say, ten per
cent Of the total used BY the people
OF the United States; or is that too
much proportion? Ought it to be
not less than 20 or 80 per cent?
Whatever the per cent, is it not
obvious that the amount OF imported
boots and shoes would be just that
amount less to be made II American
factories by American workingmen
Would it not be that much less o,
American money spent in America to
pay wages and that much more Amer.
lean money sent out OF the country?
Let the reader figure it out for
himself and discover, If he can
what benefit the democratic tariff
policy would be to American prosper
ity.

Slumbers at the council board,
Seated waiting for the time.
With their swords across their knees
In that chamber dimly lit,
Chin on breast like effigies
OF the dreaming gods, they sit.
Long ago they went to sleep,
While great wars above them
hurled,
/ Taking counsel how to keep
Giant evil from the world.
Golden-armored, iron-crowned,
There in silence they await
The last warm war renowned,
Done with doubling and debate.
What Is all our clamor for?
Petty virtue, puny crime,
Beat In vain against the door
or the hill at Ingelheim.
When at last shall dawn the day
For the saving of the world,
They will forth in war array,
Iron-armoured, golden-curled.
In the hill at 1ngelheim.
Still, they say, the emperor,
Like warrior in his prime,
Waits the message at the door.
Shall the long enduring fight,
Break above our heads n vain,
Plunged in lethargy and night,
Like the men of Charlemagne?

GIVE BABY PLENTY
OF FRESH AIR

Luckily for the peopling OF the
world. babies are not apt "catchers.
That Is, they are not especially suf-
ceptible TO smallpox, diphtheria and
scarlet fever.
They do not catch cold easily.
II baby is kept In a clean, we'll
ventilated nursery and fed properly, his
chance of keeping free from cold will
be still better.
Part OF baby's luck is no doubt due
to the fact that he Is not taken In
crowded street cars nor allowed to
mingle with other children who may
have a disease or who may just be get
ting over It.
In fact, the cold-catching habit is
more result OF wrong living than
time to get that habit yet.
Generally speaking, the following
rules on temperature are wise to OBJ
serve when raising baby:
Keep the nursery or the room in
which baby does most OF his living at
6S degrees.
Until he is three months old the night
temperature should not go below 90.
From to IL months old the nursery
temperature may be So, and after that
age 40 Is proper
Be sure TO air the nursery well at
three months old the baby should have
an airing out of doors every day except

ing 10 the small ones growth and love
OF living as 10 sleep out OF doors for a
