Success in life depends largely on
the care that is taken of the health
and childhood. Proper food and
warmth, cleanliness, and fresh air
are the things necessary 10 keep a
child well. All foods may be broad
ly divided into three great classes:
Tissue building, heat giving and
force producing substances. The
mother should know in what kind of
food to look for these different ele-
ments that she may supply the needs
of the baby as nearly as possible.
The test of a child's thriving on any
food is an increase in weight. There
should be a gain from six ounces TO
half a pound a week for the first two
or three months. Whatever a child
weighs when born should be doubled
at FIVE months OF age, and trebled
at the end of the year
"A baby should be fed every three
hours A baby should spend most Of
it's time in sleep. a healthy baby
should spend from four to eight
hours in sleep at night without wax
ing. Separate beds should be pro-
vided Accustom all children, even
babies. 10 sleep with windows open
in all weathers unless the rain or
snow drives into the room. a baby's
clothes should be especially designed
for warmth and comfort. The softest
flannelette for the napkins and soft
flannel next the skin and a loose out
side slip trimmed with soft narrow
lace. The best time for baby's bath
is 10 o'clock in the morning. Dry
the baby by patting, not by rubbing
with the towels"
