THREE charming hats for the little
j miss who j. not far beyond the
dignity of her first hat are shown in
the illustration given here. They are
of the simplest kind, and the home
milliner can hardly fail If she chooses
to copy the style and trimming.
When the child has been fitted with
q shape, here are shown three attrac-
tive styles of trimming from which to
choose in finishing it. At the bottom
of the picture shape is shown
to which a velvet crown has been ap-
piled. The crown is made by cut
ting circle from silk or velvet, from
IA to 16 inches in diameter Tor little
longer for an older girD This is gath

RISKED LIFE FOR GLASSES
And the Conductor, With Some Rea
son, is Wondering Why He Had
to Have Them.

A well-dressed man stepped in front
of an autobus at a point on Riverside
drive, New York.
Next time you do that you'll prob
ably get run down." growled the chauf-
feur. who had stopped the bus with
the emergency brakes.
''Well,' protested the man, fully
half dozen stages have passed me
and | was determined I'd stop this
one If l got killed in the attempt.
"Climb aboard and quit your argu-
ing yelled the conductor.
Il don't want to board your old bus, "
replied the man. Il want to ask you
to do a favor for me. Just climb up
to the top of the bus and reach out
to the furthest twigs among the limbs
of that tree that overhangs the drive
Among those twigs you'll find a pair
of eyeglasses. They were whisked of
my nose last night as l was riding
home on the top of one of your
stages"
The conductor followed directions
and found the glasses.
Thanks" said the man.
Say" remarked the conductor" any
man who could see those glasses up IL
that tree as you did doesn't need foul
eyes,"

a thin wash silk and kept on the head
by fiat elastic cord.
At the top, val lace in dainty
pattern is gathered in two rows about
the crown at its base. Velvet ribbon,
an inch and half wide, is laid
in fittings (that Is shallow round
loops) in wreath between the two
rows of lace.
Little bouquets of roses and snow

ing food and a tonic. She must not
take the advice of neighbors nor pat
ent medicine, nor alcoholic drinks. If
the baby has diarrhoea, the mother is
probably eating food which does not
agree with her. She must correct her
own diet And she must not nurse
the baby when excited or overheated.
If this treatment does not correct the
baby's condition then he must be
placed on modified cows milk as de-
scribed in Article 2.
6. What is the proper diet for a
baby in his second summer, from IL
months on?
Breakfast-2 to 4 tablespoons of
sweet orange or pineapple juice,
strained, or pulp of prunes. Half
an hour earlier or later, never at the
same time, 16 tablespoons of whole
milk with stale bread, toasted, or
zwieback.
Mid-morning-Same amount of milk,
with or without zwieback or toasted
biscuit.
Noon-12 tablespoons of clear soup,
or tablespoons of beef juice, with
stale or toasted bread.
Mid-afternoon-Mil with or with
out toast,
Supper-Gruel made from oatmeal,
farina barley, hominy rice or wheat
ena, cooked thoroughly. Mix table
spoons of this thick cruel with the
same quantity of top milk. Serve
with zwieback, apple sauce or prune
jelly.
Be sure to strain all soup that is
fed to children of this age, especially
in summer Thick vegetable or corn
soup is dangerous. Half-cooked cereal
is indigestible.
A child of year to 1S months old
should drink from one to IA quarts
of milk daily.
q, Should bottle milk be warmed
in summer?
For the young baby, yes. Breast
milk is warm the year round. Cold
milk is not so easily digested. II
need not be warmed for the baby q
year or more old, but it must not be
served ice cold.
Las Vegas optic., 1914-07-24

l. What is pasteurized milk?
Pasteurized milk is fresh COW
milk heated to 155 degrees or 100 de
grees Fr and kept at that tempera
ture 80 minutes. 1t is prescribed when
the mother is not sure of the source
of milk fed her baby. 1t will make
fresh milk safer. IL will not freshen
stale, old milk. 1t should not be kept
more than "a hours.
2. How can l pasteurize milk at
home?
Fill bottles with milk, cork with
sterile absorbent cotton, set in pail
with boiling water up to the top OF
the bottles, cover tightly and stand
aside for 30 or As minutes. Cool the
bottles rapidly and stand on ice.
8. Should milk be boiled in sum
mer?
Not unless your doctor orders It.
Clean milk, does not require boiling
Regular feelings of boiled milk may
cause scurvy. If your baby is subject
to attacks of diarrhoea, the doctor VIII
order boiled milk, with teaspoonful
or two of strained orange juice be
tween feelings.
Il What shall feed my baby while
travelling?
If possible avoid travelling with &
bottle-fed baby. But if it is necessary
and the journey is short, buy wicker
covered ice box made for travelling
purposes. Prepare and pack the milk
as in your refrigerator at home. For
a long journey supply unswee+ened
condensed milk in small cans. Re
member that condensed milk spoils
when open; also that it is twice as
strong as plain or whole milk, and
must be diluted accordingly. If con
densed milk is fed the baby for any
length of time, give strained orange
juice between feelings, to supply a
fresh element.
5. If the mothers milk does not
agree with the baby IN summer, how
shall the change be made to artificial
food?
Concult a physician as to the moth
| er's condition. If she is anaemic sh'
must be built up with more nour1st
