Usually it is not necessary for a girl
to ask a man outright to tell her
about his past. He does this volun-

nation which have come through

the matter over with the young man.
However. as your fiance has neglect

should have, you are justified in ask
ing him for it. You should not try
to force his confidence too much by
insisting upon unimportant details.
but you should know enough about
him to satisfy yourself that you are
making no mistake in marrying him.

BATHS IMPORTANT IN CARE OF BABY IN SUMMER
USE OF BRAN BATH IN CASES OF PRICKLY HEAT
By MRS. MAX WEST
child-Care Expert of the U. s.
Childreu's Bureau.

Every healthy baby should have
daily bath.
In very hot weather he should have
two baths a day-one In the morning.
and a cool sponge bath before going
to bed at night.
When hot weather brings to babies
the plague of prickly heat there, 10
nothing better and more soothing than
the bran bath.
Cure for Prickly Heat.
For this fill a salt bag or muslin bag
with ordinary bran. put the nlled bag
into warm water, and soak and squeeze
the bag until the water becomes milky.
Put the baby into the bath for FIVE
or ten minutes. dashing the water
gently over his whole body, and dry
him gently with a soft towel, and
without rinsing of the bran. Use no
soap. Just lave the babys skin gently
with the milky water. The bran bath
may be repeated daily as long as the
skin Is infiamed.
The ordinary daily bath is usually
given the baby in mid-morning, after
the bowels have moved, and before
the mid-morning feeding.
Giving Bath. }
Battle the baby in a comfortably
warm room. being sure he is protected
from drafts. Use q small infants
bath tub for babies under a year old.
Test the water with the point Of the
elbow. When 1t feels neither hot nor
cold to the elbow it is right for the
baby's skin. Never add hot water to
the tub after the baby is put in. Never.
leave a young baby alone in the tub.
Watch and hold him constantly. Be
fore beginning to undress the baby
for his bath gather all the materials
needed. A mild soap, soft towels.
powder. the clean clothes. the rubber
apron for the mother, the tub. water.
etc, should be placed in easy reach.
Soft cheesecloth Is excellent to use in
washing the baby. The towels should
be old and soft
Use Little Tale.
Before the baby Is entirely un-
dressed, wash his head and scalp
