The Hauohty Master Cecil.

The waywardness Of Master Cecil
boy of six years, sometimes made it
necessary for his mother to use her
slipper. This usually resulted in Q
haughtiness of manner and expression
for some hours after Master Cecil had
been ATTENDED to- One evening his
father came home to discover palpable
proof of the fact that Cecil had been
having a private interview with his
mother.
"Well, Cecil, what's the trouble
now?" asked his father.

Much Good Known to Have Been
Result Of Baby Week Celebration
Prepared BY Children. Bureau. u s. Department Of Labor

May to is Baby Week. This ma
tionWide celebration was inaugurated
last year, when more than two thou
sand communities devoted week to
reviewing the needs of their babies.
The first suggestion Of a nationwide
celebration came from the federal
Children's bureau and the General
Federation of Women's Clubs; they
believed that Baby Week was an ex-
cellent expedient for calling attention
to the great loss of infant life and for
stimulating local baby-saying work.
Many people are still unaware of the
fact that of all the babies born in the
United States, probably one in ten dies
before it has completed twelve months
Of life. Babies die in rural commune
ties, in cities, in suburbs, and in small
towns. This great preventable waste
OF life is scattered over the entire
country, and Baby Week asks:
How many babies die in your COM
munity? Is your infant mortality rate
the lowest that any American COM
munity has yet achieved? Do you re-
alize that when all babies are well
born and well cared for, infant deaths
will so rarely occur that the infant
mortality rate will be negligible?
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1917-04-27

What is your community doing to make
life safe and wholesome for its ba-
bies?'
But Baby Week has done more than
remind people of the Importance of
these questions. 1t helps people who
are already at work on the saving of
babies lives to explain to their fellow
citizens what they are doing, and en-
ables them to extend their efforts. It
draws closer together the various
agencies which have been working
from different angles and furthers the
cooperation which is essential to sue
cess.
Perhaps most significant of all is the
effect of Baby Week in small villages
and scattered settlements and other
places where there has been no or
ganized effort to meet the needs of
babies. People have come to see, as
few had done before, that even In the
fresh air and the sunshine of the open
country many babies do not have a fair
start in life.
The seven hundred villages which re-
ported to the Children's bureau Baby
Week campaign in 1915, have faced the
fact that every community-in city and
country aIike-1as a responsibility to
fulfill which requires thought and eff
fort and perseverance. And this aWak-
ening of community has been in

HIS VOICE FROZEN TO POST
At least This Is Deduction Of Wyo-
ming Weather Observer From a.
Very Peculiar Phenomenon.

Sc0ffers have arisen from time to
time to say that United States official
weather reports are a joke in so far
as they deal with the future; but their
descriptions Of the present and past
are admittedly serious and accurate.
Therefore one must not read in too
jovial a frame of mind the report of
Wye, where they have been having
some very cold weather. Mr.. Moore
cites in his report that one night two
men stopped at his cabin, and the next
morning he tried in vain to call one
of them, who was at the barn, to come
come. So the two sat down to break
fast without him. In about ten min
utes the man in the barn strolled into
the house.
''Why didn't you call me when break
fast was ready?" he asked.
81 did," was the answer.
That was during the cold snap. A
thaw hit Castle Rock few days ago,
Moore says, and while he was stand
ing in the back door summing himself.
he was startled by weird medley of
counds. BY listening closely he could
hear the words:
Come on to breakfast !"
There was no one in sight. And then
he realized why the man had not heard
him.
The voice, his own voice, had frozen
to post and was thawing out. Bos-

Do You Neglect
Your Machinery /?

The machinery of the body needs to
be well oiled, kept In good condition
just as the automobile, steam engine or
bicycle. Why should the human neglect
his own machinery more than that of
his horse or his engine? Yet most peo-
pie do neglect themselves. To clean
the system at least once week is to
practice preventive measures. You will
escape many ills and clear up the coat
ed tongue, the sallow complexion, the
dull headache, the lazy liver, if you will
take a pleasant laxative made up of
the May-apple, Juice of the leaves of
aloes, root of jalap, and called Pleasant
Pellets. You can obtain at almost any
drug store in this country these vege-
table pellets in walls for 25c-simply
ask for DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
