The Baby Sheds His Band
By WILLIAM BRADY, MD.

7 S the baby's band eEicaclous.
Does II really serve the pur-
pose for which II Is intended7
Once more We find ourselves at
variance with old. accepted ideas.
II is the ancient Argument that
the baby band makes his little
tummy warm and helps digest his
food: that II strengthens his back:
and that babies have worn abdom.
inal bands ever since cloth WINS first

the habit.
Science holds that the only func-
tion or excuse for q baby binder IL
to retain the umbllIcal dressing.
Science deposes and says that band
won't keep the baby any warmer
than his shirt: that the band Is so
loose and twisted out OF place half

ciable support TO the back. and any.
way the back needs no such support.

poisonous dopes have been poured
into babies who were endeavoring

At the age Of three weeks In most
instances. and surely at the age OF
one month. every baby should shed
his binder. whether his parents like
the idea or not. This advice we
give the babies In the interest of
the health and strength of the com
ing generation. II babies would only
use a little common sense and not
be guided by foolish old tribal Gus
toms handed down by our savage
ancestors. the binder evil would
soon be corrected.
