~ NE Of the most effective means
that has been employed by
~ state food and health officials
is that OF securing the CO.
operation Of women's clubs and civic
organizations TO aid in controlling the
sanitary conditions Of places where
food Is sold
When a delegation of women Gus
toners call upon a merchant and sug-
gest that he clean up, he IS compelled
20 put his store in good condition and
70 keep it so.
When the grocerymen in town find
that a large portion Of the housekeep-
ers are buying only from the cleanest
stores there arises a wholesome form
of competition.
A food inspector can, under even the
best conditions. inspect a store but a
few times during the year because Of
the number he has 90 visit. The Gus
toners come every day, and when they
act as unofficial sanitary inspectors the
merchant with the unclean store cannot
escape detection and punishment in loss

Where Courtesy Paid a Big Dividend

The winner of the contest on 'Why
] Think 1t Pays to Be Courteous in
the August American Magazine tells the
following instance where courtesy paid
big dividend.
"A woman came into the bank quite
early, eight-thirty, an hour and a half
before the opening hour, ten o'clock She
said she was in great trouble, and had
to get some money from her account in,-
mediately as she was obliged to leave
for the South at once. She showed me
a telegram announcing the death of Ler
son by a gunshot wo7nd received in
Texas. ] condoled with her, had her
waited upon Immediately, accompanied
her to the station, secured her tickets,
&C. As the railroad station was only a
block from the bank / had ample time
10 attend to these details She thanked
me with tears in her eyes. / returned to
the bank and dismissed the matter from
my mind.
About six weeks afterward, a lady
CARRIED in mourning approached my desk,
wished me pleasant good morning and
said, You don't remember me, do youi
replied in the negative She explained
that it was she whom had accompanied
to the train. She told me she had real
lied on the accident and life insurance
policies of her late son, and though she
was offered by bank in Texas one and
Une-half per cent more interest on her
funds than we paid, she preferred to de
post them in the bank in Chicago where
the employees were courteous to her in
her hour OF bereavement and trouble"

Weaving the Baby.

The question of when and how to wean
the baby i one OF the most perplexng
for Young mothers Each neighbor has
different advice 10 offer until the mex
perenced mother feels quite at a loss
u every baby we're nur.cd BY its moth
er and all mothers lived quite wholesome
lives, the baby seldom would be wcaned
before II was a year old However, IN
der our present system OF living, IL is
usually best to commence to wean the
baby when IL is eight or nine months
old unless this is at the beginning OF,
or during, the hot summer months In
the latter case, it i wise to postpone
the change, if possible, until the days
are cooler
For the first eight months Of its life,
the baby requires no food bat its milk
with the exception OF plenty OF water
between meals aud a little orange Juice
after 10 is six months old Every baby
needs water from the day Of its birth.
When it has been decided that baby
Is TO be weaned, the mother hrst must
decide that this should be a gradual pro-
cess and no sudden changes are to be
made. The babys bowels must be
watched closely TO see that every addi-
ton TO the diet is agreeing before the
next change is made.
About the first change that may be
made under normal conditions is TO give
a little barley Cruel once a day Ii the
baby has tendency to constipation, oat !

while if the baby SENS to be lacking

To the Cruel may be added little pure
cows milk, but no sugar If sugar is
given with this first cereal food, the
baby acquires a habit of wanting sugar
on everything.
If teething is delayed, it is well to
give teaspoonful OF limewater before
each feeding. also add a little common
salt to the Cruel

or soft boiled egg may be given once

Increase the solid diet little every week

is hard to digest.
During this period OF weaving it is es-
pecially advisable to feed the baby away
from the table Ii the baby is brought

watch baby begin to eat and each men-
