day. and when he Is restless and the
weather very hot he may have one or
two sponge baths In addition. For a
young baby the water should be slight
ly warm or tepid. The mother may
test 1t by dipping her elbow into the
water. If 1t feels just pleasantly warm
1t will be right for the baby. After he
Is q year old the water may be cooler,
but should pever be cold enough to
shock or brighten him, for a baby
should find his bath great delight.
Use only a mild soap like CASTLE and
very little of 1t, rinsing the skin thor
oughly afterward. A baby's skin is
very sensitive and may be made sore
by harsh soap. If any redness or
chatting appears use no soap at all, but
try bran bath.
Make little bag Of thin cheesecloth
and partly fill i with ordinary bran.
Sew or tie the open side and put in the
bath water, squeezing 1t until the wa
I ter is milky.
When the baby has prickly heat he
may be sponged with bath made by
y
baking soda In two quarts Of water.
1t is important to keep not only the
skin clean, but the clothing also. The
diaper should be changed as soon as 1t
Is wet, for wet or soiled diaper is
quite sure to make the baby's skin
sore If worn for any length of time.
The country mother has the advantage
In being able to dry the diapers in the
sunshine after they have been washed
or to spread them on the grass to
bleach and sweeten. Every soiled dia-
per should be placed at once in q COW
cred pail until 1t can be washed.
The baby needs very little clothing
in hot weather. On the hottest days
he may go with nothing on but his
diaper, and, possibly one other thin
garment. The mother Will, OF course,
be ready TO dress him as necessary to
prevent him from chill when the
weather cools Clothe the baby I'm as
few soft, clean, simple garments as
will serve TO make him comfortable
and happy.
Plenty OF cool drinking water is es-
sential. Babies and young children
often suffer for lack Of this. 1t may
be given from nursing bottle before
the baby is old enough to drink from
cup The water for the baby should
be boiled and cooled, as even clean look
Ing water may contain germs of disease
which are killed by the boiling process
Give the baby drink several times
day between meals and at night
when he wakens.

Care Of
Babies In
Summer

Prepared by the children's bureau, Unit
States department of labor.1
Many thousands of babies die every
suffer from illness because Of the ex-
cessive heat Bottle fed babies form
the greater part OF the number, owing
to the great difficulty of keeping cows
milk sweet In summer, but even breast
fed babies need very particular care
during July and August.
The first and most important thing
in the care Of the baby through the
hot weather is to give him the right
food. The value of breast milk to
babies has been brought out In an
earlier article. The next most impor-
tant thing to do for the baby is to
make him as comfortable as possible
by plenty Of baths, sleep, fresh air and
light clothing.
The baby should have a constant
supply of clean air to breathe, summer
and winter, day and night. Do not be
afraid to take him out of doors. In
the country it is very little trouble to
give the baby plenty Of out of door
life. A screened porch on the shady
side of the house is an Invaluable aid
TO the mother In the care of the baby.
1t makes safe place for him to stay,
awake or asleep, protects him from his
enemies, the fly and mosquito, and at
the same time affords him the fresh air
he needs.
The poorest place in the house for
the baby to stay in is the kitchen,
which Is necessarily the hottest one.
When the mother has to be busy in her
kitchen the baby should be kept out OF
doors as much as possible, and during
the warmer weather, when the out OF
door air is hotter than that indoors.
the baby should be kept I'm the coolest
room In the house. A play pen Will be
a great help in combining runabout
baby within safe bounds. 1t may be
used indoors or out, with a rug or
blanket In the bottom.
The baby should be kept clean and
cool by frequent baths. He ought to
have at least one full tub bath every

STRAIGHT GIRDLE is HERE
Tendency Marked in All the Latest
Designs That Have Been Sent
From Paris.

The newest designs sent over from
Paris as forerunners Of the spring and
summer styles show a marked ten
dency to straight girdles passed
around the figure directly at the line
where the old waist used to be before
we allowed the natural largeness Of
the figure to have its fullest develop
ment there. These belts could not be
worn, with the frock or skirt and sep
arate blouse that shows small de-
crease of size between the bust ano
the hips.
White or light muslin frocks have a
belt of three-inch black velvet ribbon
which is a decided return to the days
when small waists were in fashion
The empire line is also accumulated in
evening frocks and short jackets, but
one does not yet see 1t on day frocks.
The individualist may try 1t out, but
the average dressmaker is content to
work out the return to the normal
waist, which is no slight problem in
itself. -''~ase'essHSSJs j.. = ....-lsi
You may think that the problem of
the women who must get small
waist is the most difficult one, as flesh
has way of remaining where it has
gained a strong hold, but, after all, the
corsetiere faces the worst Of the work.
Unless she knows how skillfully to
handle the shaping of corset and
can contrive to give it q flexible APP
paaranco OF tho Normal vuoiot lipo fha
work of the dressmaker is in vain and
the task of the woman who wants a
small waist Is almost impossible.
Again has body blow been dealt the
woman who is stout. The large waist
line was her hope to be fashionable,
and If it is taken away what will she
do to be rightly dressed?

SILK STRIPES FOR WAISTS
Some Of the Most Attractive Spring
BIouses Are Made Up Of That
80 Material.


Silks with stripes that fairly make
your mouth water are being made into
waists that admit of much originality
Of line and trimming. These blouses
come in the regulation wash silks and
In the newer crepe de chimes, with the
stripes of satin and of very daring
combinations. Dull tan grounds are
enlivened with purple, green and black
stripping, and pink and black and green
is a favorite combination on a white
ground. One blouse in a broad black
and-white stripe is made with the
stripes running vertically in the upper
part of the kimono waist, while the
lower part has the stripes running
horizontally. A crepe de chine blouse
with up-end-down stripes of pink in
varying widths shades of winter
green and teaberry sticks-has a front
vest section made of the crosswise
goods. while the collar and cuffs are
treated In the same manner. Stripes
are here with the spring breezes, so
you had better make friends with
them.
