HOW | WILL BRING UP MY BABY By BILLIE BURKE
FEEDING CHEF CAUSE OF INFANT MORTALITY AGAINST
BY BILLIE BURKE.

Copyright, 1916, by The Newspa-
per Enterprise Association.)
Both my nurse and doctor have
told me the chief cause of infant
mortality is excessive and irregular
feeding.
My doctor said: "Most babies are
literally killed by mistaken kindness.
If child cries from overlooking, its
mother feeds it again ard its little
stomach is kept distended, then when
the child begins to hiccough, the
mother flies to the sugar bowl-a
remedy worse than the disease"
My nurse says that when baby
begins to develop stomach trouble it
lis her plan to give the digestive or
gans a complete rest of from to II
hours, giving nothing except tea
spoonful of cool water every Is or 20
minutes, and that she keeps the child
outdoors as much as possible.
She tells me that when this method
is strictly carried out all nausea and
vomiting will cease, and a small
amount of nourishment may be given
and it will be found the baby will re-
tain and digest it.
This is the method l shall pursue
with my baby if she needs it.
Ny nurse tells me constipation, as
well, is generally due to overlooking.
The tiny stomach, overburdened
with food, cannot digest properly
each new supply of milk which comes
in contact with the serni-digested
coagula of the preceding meal and
the mass willspass into the intestinal
canal and impact, causing constipa-
ton and oftentimes serious illness.

This is part of a review of an arhcie
by DR.. Frank Barendt in the Everpooi
Medical and Chirurgical Journal on the
abuse of soap. Dr. Barendt attributes
many skin troubles. especially In chill
dren, to too much soap. Among these
are the furfuraceous patches on their
faces. Nurses, he says. often use TOO
much soap on their patients, especially
when these are confined to bed, when
the secretion of their skin is sluggish
and the excessive removal Of natural
grease leaves the skin rough aud
branny."
The delicate skin Of newborn babies
is sometimes irritated by the zeal OF
the nurse in rubbing with soap and
water .' 49, ~. .
DR.. Barendt says the best toilet soap
is combination of oleate and stearate
of sodium. But even 1t should be used
with discretion.

The SECRET OF SILK.

Story Of tho English Worker Who Stole
II From Leghorn.
The development of the silk manu-
facture in England began some time in
the seventeenth century, but was great
ly extended through the enterprise OF
John Lombe Of Derby, who in 1115
went to Leghorn, Italy, to learn the
secret Of the Leghorn silk manufac-
lures, q most difficult and dangerous
adventure. Ee s-sl.
Visitors were allowed to pass through
the factories and see the machines In
motion, but could learn nothing Of their
construction and operation. Finally.
through the good Offices of priest to
whom he appealed to find him situa-
ton, Lombe secured employment as a
workman, slept in the mill, worked at
a spinning machine by day and by
night made measurements and plans.
He worked at the mill until an English
ship was sent On purpose to take him
away.
He had scarcely sailed from Leghorn
when an armed brig was sent after
him, and he barely escaped safely to
England. It is said that he died at the
age Of twenty-nine, poisoned by the
emissaries Of his Leghorn employers,
but the silk manufacture was securely
established, became great industry
In England and has since been estab-
Hshed all over the world.-National

Singing on Carpet.

Standing upon carpet has tendency
to mufIle the voice, since q layer OF
inelastic and nonconducting material
is then interposed between the seat OF
voice production and the floor, which,
when it is not covered, acts as sound
board, taking up the vibrations and
giving increased effect and distinctness
to them. This can be illustrated by
placing timepiece first upon rug or
carpet and then upon the bare floor.
In the latter position the ticking is
much louder, because the vibrations OF
the clock are then much more forcibly
communicated to the floor and so to
the air Of the room and finally to the
ear by actual contact between the
clock and the floor. A carpet damps
or kills these vibrations because 1t is q
bad conductor Of sound. The difer-
ence, which is so audible In this case.
Is in some degree to be detected when
the voice is heard under similar con-
ditions.

Japanese Protest Against
Contemplated Legislation
May Be Forcible
JAPAN WINS
IN OREGON
Senator Borah Asks Idaho
Legislature to With
draw Measure

Washington, Feb. 3.--Japan's repre-
sensations to the United States against
the anti-alien land bills pending in the
Idaho and Oregon legislatures, although
made informally through her embassy
here, are considered no less serious at
this critical juncture of international al
fairs than her protests against Califor-
mia laws four years ago.
Absolutely nothing had been permitted
by the administration to become public
until the protest was disclosed by APP
peals to the Oregon and Idaho delega-
tions in Congress to use their influence
at home to prevent passage of the bills
at this time.
In consequence the Oregon bill has been
withdrawn.
The state of feeling in Japan, probably
much disturbed by the crisis in the gov
eminent, has been represented to the
state department as being so serious that
the Japanese statesmen who wish to pre-
serve friendly relations with the United
States fear that the passage sof more
American legislation directed against
their countrymen may force the situation
at home beyond their control.

Just word in passing. Why is it
that it never occurs to a certain type of
woman that there may be some men in

Every man with any brains at all knows
that there are some women in the world
too good for him to marry. The average
business man SHES off from the brilliant
and beautiful woman, lest, marrying her,
he should be patiently outclassed through
life. He wants woman who is lust

more-at least not so much more that he
will suffer in contrast. But women APP
parently never give such considerations
moments thought. / have seen brilliant
men loaded through life with women
who caught them very young, and who
stopped growing at nineteen, while the
men kept right on. Those women must
have known, in the days when their
fianees were quoting to them poetry
which they couldn't understand, that
they weren't the equals of their men,"
