The music loving element of the audience expressed their appreciation of these selections by giving the players the glad hand This act is one of the most popular cnes here this season.
 Margaret Burke, the queen of the rag-time singers. is one of the most pleasing entertainers that the man. agement has engaged for some time.

WHAT EVERY MOTHER WANTS
 TO KNOW ABOUT HER BABY

 NO 5-How to Guard Bottle-fed Baby.

measuring milk and water, a wide necked porcelain or glass pitcher holding two quarts and pouring easi- ly, glass funnel fitting easily into the neck of the bottles, a sauce pan and tablespoon of enameled ware, a quart preserving jar for gruel or boiled water, wire bottle racks and a clean ice chest.
 7.-How should the milk be heat ed?
 By placing the bottle. still stop pered with cotton, in a pan of warm water and letting it \ stand until it reaches body temperature. Test by dropping on the bare forearm. Never boil the milk and return it to the bottle.
 S.-I have only an old-fashioned ice chest, with ice and food mixed. The bottles of milk are often broken. Can you tell me of an inexpensive refrig- orator for milk alone?
 Any house furnishing or depart ment store can supply a nursery re- frigerator at $5 or more. This uses about five cents worth of ice per day. A husband or son handy with tools can make little ice chest for the baby's milk as follows:
 Get wooden box large enough to hold an ordinary zinc or tin water pail. Fasten a lid on this box with hinges and a stout hook or clasp. Set a large pail in the center and pack it all around with sawdust. Set a much smaller pail inside the first one, and pack ice between the two pails. Place the bottles holding the baby's milk inside the smaller pail, and cov- CT it tightly. Line the lid of the box with newspapers, covering them with oilcloth to keep them dry. This keeps out heat and prevents melting of Ice. The pails can be bought at a five and ten cent store. This homemade ice chest finds favor with country moth CTS in particular. It can be run for five cents day or less and is a real baby-saver.

The deep pointed girdIe makes an attractive feature of many of the newest and smartest gowns. This bodice shows one with a combination of the drapery over the shoulders that seems especially we'll adapted to the present season for 1t provides admirably for combinations of thin and thick materials. In the illustra- tion, brocaded silk makes the girdle while net makes the shoulder drapery and straight lace banding the under portion of the bodice, but there never was a time when it was easier to make changes in combinations and fabrics than this one when there is almost limitless variety. While net is favorite, any thin, soft ma- terial can be used for drapery and, if something less transparent is wanted, crepe de chine makes a good choice, or net or lace arranged over chiffon. There Is foundation blouse over which the drapery and trimming of banding are arranged but the girdle Is boned to pro- vide its own support. For the medium size, the blouse win require yd. of material 77, 36 or A in. wide with I yd. any width for the drapery, 2X yds. of banding, 5s yd. 77 in. wide for the girdle.
 The pattern 82So is cut in sizes from & to 47 inches bust measure: It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Department of this paper, on receipt of ten cents.

 Home Companion)
 1.-I must wean my four-m onths- old baby. What sort of bottle is best?
 The perfectly round or cylindrical bottle is best It comes in two styles, with neck as large as the bottle, requiring very large nipple, and a small tapering neck which will ac- commodate a smaller nipple. The latter is more comfortable for the baby to nurse. Never buy bottle with corners in which particles of stale milk can settle, and never use an old medicine bottle for the same reason. The bottle with measure ments, blown into the glass, is best. These hold up to ounces.
 2.-How many bottles should I buy?
 As many as the baby has feelings in twenty-four hours, and one or two extra in case of breakage. At four months, the baby is fed every three hours, starting with A. M., and ending at g or 10 P. M. There fore six bottles or more will be need ed. You should also have wire rack for holding the bottles. This Is economy as it saves breakage. There should be absorbent cotton or sterile cottonwood for stoppering the bot ties.
 3.-What are the best nipples?
 Plain dark rubber, without glass tubes. Bacteria lodge in glass tubes. They rank among baby-killers. As the size of the hole is important some physicians recommend buying nipples without holes and piercing them with hot needles. The hole should be just large enough to permit the milk to drop or drip through when the bottle is inverted. It must not flow. If the hole is too small, the baby is ex- hausted by the effort to draw out the milk; if too large, it suffers from choking or gulping down the milk.
 4.-How are nipples kept clean?
 They may be boiled for minute or two when new. After that boiling is not necessary and rots the rubber. After each feeding, wash the nipple thoroughly with hot soapsuds made from white soap. Rinse in borax wa ter, then in cool, pure water, shake, stand on a small plate or saucer. and cover with an inverted glass. This is considered better method than leaving it to soak in borax water.
 Never test the temperature of the milk by putting the nipple in your own mouth, and never handle it with your fingers nor allow flies to light on it.
 5.-Shou1d bottles be boiled?
 Not necessarily, but they must be thoroughly cleaned. If the baby does not take all the milk in the bottle. throw. away what is left, and inn. mediateIy scrub the bottle inside and out, using brush which comes for the purpose, and suds <. made from pure soap. Rinse with. hot water. then fill with water in which borax or bicarbonate of soda has been dis solved. Stand in rack until the food is prepared the next. morning. Then turn upside down to drain, rinse thoroughly with clear water, to remove the borax. Turn upside down to drain and cool, ready forsrefilling:
 6.-Is there any special equipment for modifying milk?
 You can secure the equipment from any, first class house furnishing store. You need six graduated bottles. three nipples. a graduate or measuring glass holding sixteen ounces, for

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

Canned spinach is a great resource when the winter comes; also. a supply of spinach juice should always be made for coloring.
 To save the cook book keep in it piece of glass the size of the pages, and hold down the page you happen to be reading, by it's means.
 Bread cutters can be had now in the shops, which cut bread any de- sired thickness for sandwiches. and prove themselves great time savers. A few drops of glycerine put on the edges of the fruit jars before screw ing on the covers will prevent mold from forming on the fruit
 The little brass rings that can be bought for few cents make excel lent hangers for boys clothing. Sew tn erings in armholes or wristbands.
 To cover jelly glasses, cut letter paper in circular pieces that will just fit inside the glass, and dip the paper in brandy, cover with tin covers or large pieces of paper pasted down.
 Watercress stands at the head of all vegetables as blood purifier and 1t is not always necessary to make 1t into a salad to be palatable for it is appetizing eaten plain, with bread and butter.
 Never cover spinach while boil- ing; and remember, that a pinch of soda will preserve the green color while boiling if you would have the flavor slightly acid.
 To relacquer brass bed, rub the brass vigorously with a flannel dipped in whiting, then dissolve 10 cents worth of shellac in enough alcohol to make it thin. Apply with small brush.
 When stewing fruit of any kind in a steam cooker, always place it in a basin or some earthenware dish in- side the cooker. Fruit should never be cooked in a metal saucepan, as both flavor and color will be spoiled
 Rose geranium jelly can be made with apples prepared as for ordinary apple jelly. Just when the jelly is in the syrup stage pass a bunch of rose geranium leaves (which have been carefully washed) through it several times.
 Garlic, like cayenne, is good servant but a very bad master Cut clove in half and make a cross at bottom of salad bowl. or write a magic number, as do some of the French chefs, and you will have plenty of the garlic flavor.
 Don't allow dirt to become in- grained in hands and nails. If you have rough work to do, wear gloves as much as possible. Rub lemon and glycerine we'll into the hands before washing them after washing up greasy dishes.

To make banana jam, slice a dozen large bananas. To every pound of the fruit allow three-quarters of a pound of preserving sugar. Take the juice and pulp of five lem mons and add them to the bananas and sugar. Add little water. Then chop up half an ounce of preserved ginger and add. Simmer very slowly for fifty minutes.
 Garnish for lettuce or any other dressed salad may consist of rings or quarters of hard-boiled egg, slices of tomato, nasturtium flowers, chopped parsley, or tarragon, tiny shapes of beetroot, and the yolk of a hard boiled egg passed through a sieve so that it makes golden dust It is not wise to mix tomatoes and beet root in garnish, as the colors do not contrast nicely.
 A fragrant scent ball to keep in lace and handkerchief boxes can be made with an orange and some cloves. Take perfectly sound orange with a thick skin, stick it all over with cloves, forcing them in to the heads, and planting them as thickly as possible, and leave the orange to dry. When dry, it will emit delicious odor, and will re- tain the scent for nearly a year.
 To make a Roman pie, mince up any cold meat, add a little we'll cooked macaroni and a little good thick, brown gravy, season to taste. Make a short crust. Line an ordi- nary cake tin with it. fill up with the meat and lay cover of pastry on top; decorate to taste; brush over with warm milk, and bake in a mod crate oven for one hour. Turn out and serve with brown gravy.
 A good luncheon dish is made by boiling three or four eggs until hard, shell them carefully, cut in half lengthwise, take out the yolks, and mix them we'll with four or five sar dimes (boned), a little cayenne and salt, a few drops of vinegar, small piece of butter melted, and a sprin- kling of chopped parsley. Fill the white halves of eggs with the mix ture, heaping it up. Arrange on glass dish and garnish with sprigs of fresh parsley.

nurse SHOULD be IN
Each School FACULTY

st. Louis, Mo-, April 2S.--A nurse
should be a member of the faculty in
every school, according to Miss Helen
w. Kelly, superintendent of the
School Nurses of Chicago, who spoke
before the National Organization for
Public Health Nursing here last night.
Such rapid strides were being made
she said, that since 1901, when New
York was the first city to employ a
school nurse, there are over 500 cities
and towns which have established
school nursing.
"The ideal condition." according to
Miss Kelly, would be to have a nurse
in each school as a member of the
faculty, charged with the responsible
ty for the health of teachers and pu
pills, with authority over all agencie:
affecting the hygiene of the school
She would be the instructor of hygiene
physiology, first aid and the elements
of home nursing"
