have increased q little more than u

for much of this increase. 1t is said.

Mrs. D. Please give me advice on
how to feed my year and six months
old baby. Should he have anything
besides milk?
Answer: Half the second year
babies need four regular meals daily
with strained cereal jellies, one-third
jelly and two-thirds milk, with first
and last meals: three ounces OF beef
Juice. or six ounces OF soup for noon
meal; either zweiback, buttered toast,
graham crackers, or hard biscuit with
all meals and dessert of prune pulp
or apple sauce. Last half Of second
year, babies can digest fresh vege-
tables and rare scraped beefsteak or
chops, in addition. Second and third
year they need cereals and cream.
butter. thickened soups, sugar, more
vegetables, larger amounts and q
quart OF milk. No chops, steak or
roast beef much before eighteen
months. No vegetables much before
two years: peas, string beans, spin
ach, carrots. asparagus tips cooked
soft and colandered; baker potato.
Soup stocks should be of chicken,
beef or mutton. Cereals mean corn
meal, rice. barley. hominy, farina,
ETC.; oatmeal Is too heating In sum-
mer. Prolonged cooking breaks up
cellulose OF cereals into digestive bits.
All fruit juices should be strained:
all cooked fruit pu1ped. Up to six
years children cannot incorporate too
much cereal for their good. Give
freely OF chocolate, molasses varieties
and homemade fudge. Between noon
meal and super day-old bread layered
with butter and sugar. Regular food
and fresh air are Dature's appetizers.
+, Don't allow children to go to bed with
cold feet; see that the feet and legs
are warm and dry. This VIII make
them comfortable and ensure rest and
also prevent suffering and serious III
ness.

| It is q deplorable fact that the

that the more expensive an article
the more valuable it becomes. In the

site condition really prevails in many
cases. Take the various drinks, Tor

TO IT, and he continued, without a mis-
take of a turning. straight toward the
goal of desire which had suddenly
stirred into being with his thoughtless
little jest about the library, and
grown instantly to an overmastering
impulse.
1t was not far-nothng was far In
this town; the man from Chicago had
the sense of a toy village with toy
streets of an almost impossible steep
ness. every one of them heavily
rooted over with elms or maple. The
queer old wooden houses sat primly
in their detached gardens; many of
them still had the old time dignity of
secluding fences-wood or iron: few
only of the more pretentious had cast
this decency away, obeying the mod
ern tendency to live on the sidewalk.
And it was June-June with the apple
trees still in late blossom, and the
pregnant promise of the hot, thick
New England summer close at hand,
all unlike the keen torrdity Of the
West.
How long ago did I walk here?"
the Western man asked himself with
amusement.
To play that it all amused him was
a way of keeping the incident in its
place a measure Of self-respect, and
he played it diligently at intervals, for
in his heart he was sharply aware
Of a growing sensa,ion-somethiny
which gripped him Ike physical
pain-or was II pleasure? He
walked on up the street (for now he
was on the street,, going very slowly
past remembered spots.
Part of the way was parked and
there were benches; how many sum-
mer evenings like this he had spent
on one of them trying to solve the
problem--to call or not to call. Some
of his fellows had no such scruples;
they called seven nights in succession;
but he had had even in his youth
strain OF that dignity or caution which
had stood him in such good stead
since: he had never liked to cheaper
himself; three or four times a week,
as he remembered it. had been about
his limit. He smiled again-with
amusement Of course.
And now as he drew near a certain
stretch Of elm shaded walk he walked
slower yet. About here. he told him
