"Now is the time for every de-

says.
Here are some of the thunderous

modern women.

developed Fin the first years of mar
rled life, and the unhappy ones
have become disillusioned.
And there Is still third class
those women who have become dis
illusionai and who, for financial or
. other reasons HAVE to pretend
they are not. This, 1 think. is the
hardest lot OF all-for a spirited,
self-respecting woman to have to
close her eyes on things and go on
as If her eyes had not been opened.
It's a mans world. and any
woman who expects anything from
man, for which she does not pay
dearly. is going to be sadly disap-
pointed sooner or later. II women
would realize this before they
marry there would be Jess disap-
pointmentg and less Snhappiness.
But that's just the point-if
woman is bright enough to see
through a man he will not marry
her. Not that I mean men want to
marry unintelligent women; a
woman may be clear minded on
every known subject except one, and
that is her husband. If she Is
blinded to him and her Judgment
is warped so far as he is concerned,
then she will fill the bill. Men gam

Proper Care
of the Baby
BY Brice Belden, M. ID.


A MoNG the many important
"A points TO be observed in the
proper bringing up OF taoy
are those OF exercise and outings.
These things are quite as important
in babies, II not more so, as in older
children and adults.
A very small baby is limited to
kicking and crying foS exercise.
Prolonged crying generally means
that there Is something quite den-
nitely wrong with the child, and II
is not so good for him as some
people believe. Kicking Is the very
best thing for developing baby
from the beginning, and he should
not be hampered in any way which
will interfere with this sort OF exer~
else.
At first the baby should be car
ried about on a pillow. Later this
may he gradually discarded. In
order TO prevent curvature OF the
spine the child should be carried
on one arm and then on the other.
and when he reaches the age or
about three months he may be al
lowed to sit up with the head and
back well supported At about
seven or eight months the child
'or ten months he may be allowed
to creep.
A baby should not be coaxed to
stand or walk before he has reached
the proper age for this sort OF ex-
ercise, or even at the proper age
(about twelve. months), II he has
not himself shown the strength and
inclination.
Outings should occur every day
unless the baby il i'll. A short out
ing is advisable at first, and If the
baby starts to go out in mid-winter
1t is better to wait until he is about
two months old, and then to take
him out only on sunny days.
In the spring or summer a baby
may be taken out as early as the
tenth day after birth.
A little baby should never be
trotted on the knee or lifted by the
hands or arms, Overexercise and
excitement are very bad for infants.

of her husband. 1 scarcely ever SEQ

heavens l couldn't stand 1t! Not 50
long ago l heard him make a very
ugly remark to her. Had my huJ-
band said 1t to me, yelled 1T me as
he did, l wouldn't have spoken to
him again. And she's a beautiful
thing, too. Most occupants of the

ASTHMA.


Q. have a boy ten years old,
who. till the age Of Ave years old,
was in perfect health. He went
to bed as well as ever, and at mid
night got up with a Group cough.
The doctor said it was asthma.
He is sick three days out OF six.
He had whooping cough, but not
before the asthma. Please advise
me. 1t is possible in a certain eli
mate the asthma will leave him?
A. Investigations within the last
few years have clearly demonstrat-
ed the role of certain food sub
stances which bring on an attack
of asthma when partaken of. The
special articles of food cannot well
be determined except at the hands
of specially trained physician
with the assistance of laboratory
tests.
In other cases, asthma Is associ-
ated with bronchial inflammation
and children who readily contract
bronchitis and colds and who suffer
from asthma more frequently in the
winter and spring arc benefited by

dry and moderately warm locality.

A LTHOUGH It Is a bit early to
~. predict any of the forecasts
to suit" milady, neverthe-
less. there are some stunning
models being exhibited now at thd
fashion shows. Perhaps the most
notable thing Is the unusual sill
houette in sharp contrast to the
box-coat effects and other straight
lines of the midwinter season. Full
skirts and scant skirts, long ones
and brief ones are all represented
and combined with the smartest of
jackets.
Accessories and trimmings play
an important part in making the
new suits so attractive and so
charmingly different from any we
have had before. For instance, at n
recent fashion show was suit OF
tan Poiret twill richly embroid-
cred In brown soutache. The skirt
was short and scant and gashed in
self material with broad streemers

be taught to hang up his or her
garments when retiring at night
to hang up their face towels, to

Children should be taught the use
