is YOUR BABY THE
PROPER WEIGHTp

DR.. Holt, the eminent baby spe-
cialist, says that baby's weight tells
very accurately how well it is thriv-
ing. He recommends, the first year at
least, keeping a weight chart. The
average baby weighs at birth 7 to
z IL pounds; three months, II to 10
pounds; six months, Is to 16 pounds
one year, 20 to % pounds.
If your baby isn't weighing what
it should, give it immediate attention.
The first place to look for the cause
of underweight is the stomach and
digestive organs, if they do not func-
ton properly, baby's body is not
properly nourished. Symptoms of
poor digestion are usually sleepless-
ness, fretfulness, loss of appetite,
constipation, diarrhoea and some
times slight fever
This condition may be easily cor
rected with a good laxative, such as
Baby Ease" a perfected prepare
ton by baby specialist. The castor
laxatives have a tendency to irritate
and are too harsh for the delicate
membranes of baby's stomach. Baby

.ALLEE BOND BILL DETECTED
AFTER A LIVELY DEBATE
HOUSE KILLS 1T WHEN IT'S
EFFECT WAS EXPLAINED
Measure Would Have Restricted the
Floating of Loan for State and
School improvements

0ShOOl
Senator Alee's bond measure, which
had for its purpose the prohibiting of
the issuance of bonds by State, county
or special districts for less than par
value or at greater rate of interest
than 5 per cent. was overwhelmingly
defeated by the House last week by a
vote of Is nays to yeas.
The roll-call on the bill follows:
Yeas-Messrs. Brooks, Buckson,
Bunting, Clendaniel, Dean, Jakes. To-
tai, 6.
Nays-Messrs. Francis, Hardesty,
Hart, Hastings, Jester, Lester, Lloyd,
Lord, McNabb, Murine, Mulvena,
Parker, Quigley, ]. w. Smith, Snow,
Soper, S. ]. Warrington, Speaker Cor
bit. Total, IS.
Representative John J. Mulvena
led the fight for the opponents, argu-
ing that it meant the publication of
the loss of confidence in the officials
of the State. He referred to a recent
issuance of Wilmington water bonds,
characterizing them as gilt-edged Sc
curities, and saying that while they
did not bring par they were disposed
of for slightly less amount.
Senator Alice denied any intent to
embarrass any particular department,
saying that it was to protect the peo-
pie and future generations. He
couldn't see the wisdom of good roads
when there was a lack of labor on
farms and consequent loss of produc-
ton.
Representative Parker aimed an or
atorical shaft at the Doverite, stating
that if Senator Alice was right in his
assertion that the people wanted the
bill he was rather a little inconsistent
He explained that he meant that the
Senator knew that the majority of his
people were opposed to suffrage, yet
he voted in favor of it.
Senator Alice said the trouble was
that contracts were let and that bonds
then had to be issued to pay the bills.
Bond brokers knew this, he said, and
the bill was aimed to protect the pub
lie from being taken advantage of.
