Summer Suggestions
For Baby's Mother
SEASONABLE ADVICE on THE
HEALTH OF CHILDREN IN
HOT WEATHER.

No one requires as much food in
summer as In winter. Do not over
feed children during the hot weather.
Serve only the lighter and more cas-.
lily digested foods, and make sure the
bowels keep normally active.
Most of the troubles to which chill
dren seem particularly susceptible in
the summer have their origin in a
constipated condition, The first care
of the mother should be to see that
the children are regular. At the first
sign of disposition to neglect this
important function a mild laxative
should be administered promptly.
Cathartics and purgatives should nev.
er be given to children as they are
harsh and violent in their action and
tend to upset the entire system. The
combination Of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin, sold in drug stores under
the name of Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup
Pepsin. is now very generally used to
correct stomach and bowel trouble
and issespeclally adapted for children,
being pleasant to the taste, mild and
gentle in action and free from oplate

Kenosha.-George Koscak, defen-

mite case, was released after being
locked up for eighteen months. Judge
Belden admitted Koscak to bail and
fixed the amount of bail at $1,000.
Bail was furnished within fifteen
minutes and Koscak was brought in
to court and released. It is thought
that he will never appear as defen-
dant in this court again.
No notice had been given OF Kos
cAk being released and the first that
his wife and children knew of it was
when he walked into the home just
as they were sitting down to dinner.
Koscak served seven months in jail
before he was sentenced to prison,

that he be brought back to Kenosha

Madison.--Attorney General W. G.
Owen officially advised State Treas
urer Henry Johnson that the law
creating the state life fund, prOvid-
ing for life insurance of citizens of

TO PUT REFORMS IN FORCE
Shehoyqan Commission Directs Police
to Enforce Laws Affecting
Saloons and Resorts.

Superior.-Stringent law enforce
ment is in sight for Superior if a
formal resolution adopted by the city
commission is followed to the letter,
and Chairman Teasdale of the state
legislature vice investigating will no
longer be able to point with pride TO
the discovery of Superior "as the
worst city in the state"
Some months ago District Attorney
Mckay closed the segregated district
and since has followed up this action
with other reforms, the latest OF
which are closing gambling rooms
and questionable hotels. The action
of the commission makes it a good
job by serving notice on saloon men
that violation of the law means re-
vocation of license, and directing the
police to strictly enforce laws affect
ing saloons, immoral resorts and
gambling houses.
Rewards are offered for evidence
of violation OF these laws, and assur-
ance is given that any commissioner
who is derelict in regard to their en-
forcement will be impeached. This,
it is pointed out, eliminates any ne
cessity for constant recall move
ments"

EXPLAINING SONGS or BIRDS
Beautiful Notes Of the Nightingale,

Paternaa Love.

Ii is generally assumed that a bird
sings because he is happy, but sci

of the why and wherefore of the
birds song. Natures optimistic JOY
In constructive progress Is expressed
In the singing Of the male birds who
charm their mates to further their
wooing, and continue after eggs are
laid to encourage the fHlfillment OF
Matching.
The song stops when the little birds
come out of the shell. The nightin'
gale. for weeks during the period OF
nest-building and Matching, charms
his mate and human ears near him
with the beautiful music of his love
song. Bat as soon as the little night
ingales come from the eggs the song
changes to a sort Of cultural croak,
Implying anxiety and sense Of respon'
Bibility.
If the nest and contents were de-
stroyed the nightingale would at once
resume his beautiful song to inspire

nest and start all over again the low.

observation-disclosures people will
have the immense sum of $7O,OOO,-
600 invested in automobiles long be-
fore the end OF the present year;
Alex. J. Cobban, who has charge OF
the issuing Of auto licenses and rev
gistration of the same, said that be-
fore the year was over 10000 licenses
would be issued. 1t is low estimate
of $1,000 for each car. This would
make the investment In this sort of
vehicle amount to the vast sum nam
ed
Mr.. Cobban said the total number
of licenses issued since Jan. /, from
the department of secretary of state.
was 3,80S. The total number issu~
ed in 1914 was $3.50. With but
three months Of the year gone the
number Of auto licenses is within
10000 Of what was issued in the en-
tire year just passed.
To be sure, the bulk Of the licenses
are issued at the beginning of the
year, but even with the statistics
show that an increase Of over 80 per
cent can be expected for the remain
ing months of the year.
This led Mr. Cobban to predict
that the 10000 mark would be easily
reached before the frosts come next
fall. This estimate he based on the
manner in which applications were
being received, in spite of war and
business depression.
