Rock Your Baby Lengthwise

The latest researches tend to prove
that the rocking of babies to sleep Is
all wrong-but the reason is that they
are rocked the wrong way. If the
cradle were suspended at the centre
and swayed up and down there would
| be no injury to the child and an In
creased resting of the nerves.
| In Scotland they have devised bed
which oscilIates from head to foot,
but not from side to side like the old
fashioned cradle. This particular bed
is not for children, but for grown
persons who are suffering from in
somnia, says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer.
No attendant is required to sway
the bed, but there is an automatic
device by which the patient may start
the machinery which continues with
out further effort. Experts in nerve
diseases have found the effects of this
beds motion very remarkable In
soothing the tangled nerves and In
ducing sleep.
No one has been able to explain
why this motion is 50 soothing, but
II you stop to think you will remem-
Der that your grandmother often
rocked herself to sleep in her rocking
chair, which had precisely this same
movement. In this way it appears
that we are going back to the rocking
chair as one of the soothing infiu-
ences upon disordered nerves.

Ink Stains and Finger Nails

NJ dear Miss Doom:
\ III you kindly publish a formula
TO- . polish for gold?
And inform me what will ren1ove
an ink stain of long standing from
black and white check wooden cloth?

without success.
Also, will you publish instruc-
tions for manicuring the finger
nails? ELIZABETH M.
Here is q good polish for gold:
Cover with a soft paste of pow
dered whiting and salvolatile and
remove when dry, with a stiff
brush. To clean gold chains put
them in a small glass bottle with
warm soapsuds and a little pre-
pared chalk. Shake until clean.
then rinse.
You might try the following on
the ink stain:
Wet the stain and spread 1t over
a bowl of boifing-hot water. Rub
the spot with a feather dipped in
muriatic acid, or touch with the wet
glass stopper of the acid bottle. Re
peat as often as necessary. then
rinse in diluted ammonia and then
thoroughly in water.
Or. dissolve ten cents worth of
oxalic acid In a pint of soft water.
Dip the stained part in quickly. then
rub well in clear cold water Re.
peat. If the color is affected, put
a little ammonia in some warm
water and moisten the spot.
Strengthen the ammonia water, If
necessary.
None of these remedies may COM
pletely remove the ink spots, II they
are of long standing.

Begin by fling the nails In any

lay the file aside. though it may be

Then put one hand into a basin of
soapy warm water and soak it for
Eve minutes; longer IL you wish.
Then wipe gently, by no means
thoroughly. and use the orange
stick. With this push the cuticle
gently toward the base of the nail.
Wet the stick end and rub it to

who was pointing the gun at him.

"oh, Father! Please don't let
the bear get shot" cried Dorothy,
excitedly clutching her fathers
arm.
Father Dear frowned. He felt
that IT wasn't fair for Dorothy to
interrupt at the most exciting part.
And 1t wasn't. DO you think SO?
Just as the man prepared to pull
the trigger Bruno began to dance.
He went through all his steps in
such a coniicaI way that the chill
dren, who were peeping through
the crack In the door, opened it
wide and came down the steps.
Don't shoot, JIM said the
mans wife, Its a tame bear. Per-

his shaggy head. And then he went
back to the well and poked his head
In the pail for more water but 1t

filled the bucket. Bruno waited POI
litely and then took another long
drink, after which he tried to poke
his nose into the mans pocket,
granting in the most friendly way.
Hes looking for sugar, said the
mans wife. who had seen perform
ing bears in the city, and the little
girl In the pink gingham dress
quickly ran into the house. coming
out with a handful of sugar and a
big piece of ginger cake.
"She threw the cake on the ground,
because she was little afraid to
approach too near, But Bruno did
not mind at all. He ate the cake
with a relish and grunted with sat-
isfaction when the man fed him
three Jumps OF sugar.
"'Oh, let's keep him for always,
cried the little girl in the pink
gingham dress, he's as gentle as
can be, and I'll love him, WILL
And I'll play circus and have
the fellows over. Will you let us

anxiously. If you will I'll never

head, to the bears delight, for he
was a very friendly. Bruno, you
know. and adored being petted.

''Father-ri You're rested nov.
Please tell US more" insisted Davie,
resting his elbows on the arm of
father Bears big leather chair and
looking anxiously into his face.
What did the bear do thena"
Father Dear teasingly. kept his
eyes closed for another whole sec
ond, while Davie fidgeted, and Doro-
thy showed signs of pouting. Then
he opened them and said: ooh,
yes," as blandiy az il he had no
idea that the children were wait
ing. And at last he took up the tale
of Bruno and Rocco, his master,
once more. -
''Bruno hid behind O big tree and
watched said father Dear, land
then he ran to a tree that was a
little nearer, and watched. And
then he ran to q tree that was still
nearer, and watched from behind
that. He kept on doing this until
he was right on the very edge Of
the barnyard.
children were playing about
happily, with never suspicion
that a. medium-sized brown bear
was so near. Bruno kept Wishing
they would go In, because he was
very, very thirsty, and wanted to
get to the pail of water that stood
by the we'll.
IF they don't go in pretty soon
I'll Just have to walk right up, any
way said he to himself, In his bear
language, which sounds to us like
nothing but growls and grunts.
"A little boy that was standing
near jumped up. I heard something
growl,' cried he, and 1T sounded

tree, nodding his head politely. as
Rocco had taught him to do. Both
of the children screamed, and the
little girl in the pink Bingham
dress was the first to take to her
heels, her bravery having quite
disappeared.
"a bear! A bear!' she cried. and

boy behind her. Bruno paid no at

reached the bucket and was taking

The Nails and Hands

Dear Miss Doom:
Let me know how to care for my
f1ngernails and what will whiten the
hands. Thanking you in advance,
RUTH II.
See directions to Elizabeth M. rec
garding the care of the nails.
The following lotion is said to be
excellent for whitening the hands:
Strained honey, one ounce; lemon
Juice, one ounce; cologne, one ounce.
Mix and rub well into the hands
at night; then wear a pair of large
kid gloves, the palms split fer ven-
tilation.
Constant care must be used if thd
hands are TO be kept nice during
the cold weather. Grease in SONS
form is necessary, to counteract the
drying, chapping effect of cold.
A paste that will restore Redeemed
skin to wilderness is made from ono
ounce of powdered myrrh, four
ounces of strained honey, two
ounces of yellow wax and six ounces
of rose water The wax is melted
in cup set in a pan Of boiling wa
ter. While the liquid Is warm the
myrrh goes in, the cup then being
removed from the heat. After 2.
thorough heating the honey and
rose water are used, adding the lat
ter slowly. If the paste Is too thick
to spread easily 1t should be tMnned
with glycerine.
This application Is excellent for
the arms and throat, as we'll as the
hands.
