to Care
for the Baby
BY Brice Belden, NJ. d.


This is the seventh In DR.. BcIdcn's
series on Baby Care. Every mother
should read and sdpe these articles
INCREASE in weight Is the most
reliable index to the baby's de-
- velopment in most cases during
the first year. There are several
other important ways of following
the development, which when de-
layed indicates some defect or lack
OF care.
The fontanel. an opening In the
front part of the skull of young
baby, should close at about eigh-
teen months. and IL should not be
open when the child becomes as
old az two years. 1t very seldom
becomes closed before fourteen
months.
During the fourth month the
average baby is able to hold up his
head. although the body must still
be carefully supported with the
hand. Some babies can do this az
early as the third month. At the
fourth or fifth month the baby first
laughs aloud and about the NTH
month he will begin to reach for
things and to handle his toys. At
about seven or eight months old
ne VIII De HTSt dDie 10 SIT up
At about the twelfth or thirteenth
month he will make his first at
tempts at walking IL he Is
healthy child. and he may make at
tempts to stand as early as the
ninth or tenth month. When he is
able to run about he will probably
be fifteen or sixteen months old
However, he should never be
coaxed IN walk before he shows
himself that he is willing and able
to do SO.
Postponement of any OF these
events in a babys life generally
indicates that he is delicate and
not up to the average in general
health. Malnutrition resulting in
ricketts, is one of the most common
causes Of this lack of develop
ment
The normal child talks at about
the age of one year.

At Bears hill, near oxford, Eng

which looks a little different from
the usual country store, but the
residents OF tho vicinity patronize
Il literally. Most OF the residents
arc literary personages and ono Is
likely to encounter in the store
any one of n number of prominent
English writer's. 1t is said on
many occasions the poet-laureatc

Is Marriage a
Success?
WHEN MEN AND WOMEN ARE
EQUAI.A

WHEN MEN AND WOMEN ARE
EQUALs.
From questions asked by some
readers OF this column. I've been
moved to write the following. In
hope that it will answer their real
question. sympathize with the
complainers of unsuccessful mar
riage. for 10 long as today's riddle
of social life exists as IT is un-
successful marriage will be an In
durable disease. Marriage, when
conducted under the proper laws OF
nature. is the satisfaction OF
humanity's most superb feelings.
/ mean when man and woman are
ontwined with the indestrucible
chain of love. And love is an in
destructible chain, which neither
life nor death can destroy.
Today people wonder why they
can't find true love. Perhaps 1 can
explain. Our young people, before
they can understand what love is,
are possessed with the craze of be-
coming rich. They covet the
superior state of.material life over
their fellow sand while in this
struggle they become married be-
fore they can learn to love. They
become married to man-made-law,
and not the law of their own soul.
the law of nature. This being true
of the both sexes
Some day, when the world
realizes that man and woman are
equals, and foolish superstitions
fade away. and that one without
the other Is incomplete, and that
one is not superior to the other.
then we will have love. happiness,
and successful marriage. M. s.

LONGS FOR TRUE LOVE.

In reply to "Just Dreamer"
Your failure to find "true love" is
of a very unfortunate nature. To
be deprived of 1t is crime, for 1t
is the one thing all good men and
women in this world are longing
for. What kind of men have you
met that they all prove 50 worth
less: and is 1t not better they
prove that way before than after
SO why worry? Your 'true love"
does exist You arc not the only
one who has been disappointed in
true love-" and who now longs for
it am in the same boat with YOU
Since that time my time has been
devoted to study, and oh. how i
long for a true friend and pal. one
to take an interest in.

NEVER KISSED HER.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
/ am fifteen and dearly in love
with a sailor twenty-five. l think
he loves me. He is the best girl
could get, although he has never
kissed me.
He wants me to go out with him,
but my parents object He works
across the street from where /
live. 1 see him nearly every morn
ing, but not to speak to.
l think he is jealous-minded, for
when l talk to a fellow he seems
to get angry. l would like to
know what to do to break him of
this and make him trust me and be
more affectionate.
MARGARET.
My dear girl, you don't know
what love means. What wonder
full imagination you have! He seems
to get angry. you say. You are
probably the one who is disturbed
when he talks to another girl, and
accredit him with this emotion
when he sees you talking to an
other boy. Don't be 80 silly. No
doubt he thinks of you as just a
nice little girl
