WHAT EVERY MOTHER WANTS TO
KNOW ABOUT HER BABY
By ANNA sTEESE RICHARDSON
ofth Wonans Home Companion

! with olive oil or vaseline. Then he ts
wrapped in a soft piece of wool. old
| blanket or shawl while the nurse at
| tends the mother. After the latter Is
made comfortable, the nurse makes a
| warm suds of pure CASTLE or white
soap. and washes off the oil with clean
old linen or gauze. Then using a
| fresh piece Of cloth, she r1nses of
the suds with clear warm water, and
pats the tender flesh dry with old linen
or towels. The flesh of the very young
baby must never be rubbed always
patted dry, and then powdered with
talcum, especially where the flesh
forms creases. This sponge bath on
the nurses lap is given daily until
the baby is a week or ten days old,
the baby has a daily bath in a tub
OF its own.
2.-My baby screams when lay him
in the tub. Should I give him q bath
under such circumstances
Try to learn the cause Of the
screams. The water may be too hot
or too cold. 1t should register 100 de-
grees F. until the baby is at least
eight weeks old. After that it may
be reduced gradally to IS. Cold water
shocks a baby. Perhaps you do not
hold the baby properly in the tub and
he may be afraid Of slipping or falling
under the water. Never let his head
slip under the water, so that it can
run into his eyes, mouth and nose.
Support the back and head HrTnfy I'M
der your left hand, and grasp the an
kles with your right; then slip the
little body gently under the water.
Continuo to support the head and back
with YOU left hand and wash the baby
with your light. Never let him lose
the feellnG of comfort md support
given oy your left hand ANA he may
be less fearful TT this does not cure
his fear, consult your doctor. The
baby may be highly nervous and need
medical attention.
SIS a sponge better To- z young
baby's skin than clotns-
No. sponges hold germs and can
infect childs skin, if it is scratched.
Soft old linen, old towels or gauze
are better. Throw them away after
using, or wash, boil and rough dry
them with great care. Never use on
baby a towel used by older per-
sons.
Any baby's eyelids are a little in
to stick together with mucous. What
shall 1 do?
Send for your physician. Iriamma-
ton is often the symptom Of the dread
disease responsible for two-th1rds OF
the blindness in children. If the in
fiammation is not q symptom, 1t is
due to lack Of care and cleanliness.
Wash the babys' eyes night and morn

ing with absorbent cotton, dipped into
a Iukewarm solution of bortc acid. one
even teaspoonful to a cup OF water.
Use a fresh piece of absorbent cotton
every time you wash the babys eyes.
Never expose the eyes of q young baby
to strong light. Keep the nursery or
bedroom dark. Turn crib and car
riages so that the light does not fall
on the baby's face. Even when show
ing the new baby to guests, do not
allow the light to strike his eyes.
Slow can cure the scales which
form on my baby's scalp?
Rub the head nightly with sweet-oil,
vaseline or pure cold cream. In the
morning wash this off gently with old
linen or gauge, pat the scalp dry and
apply witch hazel. Never use a fine
tooth comb or rough towel to remove
the scales. If this treatment Is not
effective, consult your doctor.
S.-My baby suffers greatly with heat
rash. How should 1 treat IL?
Stop the use Of soap. Tie a cupful
Of bran in a. piece OF cheesecloth and
squeeze into the bathwater until the
latter turns milky. Battle the baby
in this, pat dry and powder with tall
cum. Be sure that the little slips
worn by the baby are not starched nor
trimmed with lace or embroidery to
chafe neck and wrists. Be especially
careful about the diapers. Never use
diaper the second time without
washing. Wash with good soap and
rinse thoroughly, dry in SIN, fold but
DO not iron.
How do wash my baby's
mouth?
The mouth Of the very young baby
should not be washed. The mucous
membrane is very tender. If broken,
the mouth may become infected. If
the mouth looks clean and sweet, and
has no tiny white threads or fakes
on its pink surface, it needs no at
tention. If these appear. the mouth
must be swabbed out with absorbent
cotton wrapped round a blunt wooden
toothpick, dipped in bortc water, one
even teaspoon OF borax to three ounces
or six tablespoons Of boiled water. Use
this after each nursing or feeding.
When the baby is three months old,
wash the mouth daily, and as soon
as teeth appear, cleanse then with
soft cloth at first, and then with
tiny soft brush.
