27.-Keeping the Baby Well.

To keep baby well is much easier
than to cure him when he becomes
sick.
In a room crowded with strange peo
pie, there always is likely to be some
one who is suffering from catching
disease, or who may have come from
home where such disease is pres
ent. For that reason, little baby
should be kept away from crowds and
from crowded places in order to pro-
tect him from expoure to disease.
Most healthy grown persons carry
disease germs in their mouths They
do an adult no harm But in kissing a
baby on the mouth, these germs may
be transferred to the baby tender
mouth and make him i'll or even Kill
him. Kissing the baby on the mouth,
even by his own mother, should not be
permitted.
