For Your Baby
BY C SAM. M. d.

.' w.
At birth, a baby's head is larger In
proportion to his body than is an
adults. The abdomen Is big. The
arms and legs are short and the
legs are slightly bowed.
Soon after birth, a baby develops
sense of contact and temperature,
that is, he knows when he is being
held and ne can appreciate heat or
cold. He learns to see light and to
hear during the first three or four
days.
-aimlessly about. During the second
mouth, he learns to put his hand to
his mouth and tries to lift his head.
During the third and fourth
months, a baby will make an effort
to grasp what is held before him
and will try to sit up. He should
not be allowed to do so unless he
is supported. About this time, he
begins to recognize others and de-
velops a will of his own, which is
expressed in crying when he is dis
pleased. He will COO when he is
happy.
Tries to Talk
About the sixth month a baby
can cit alone for a few minutes. He
will grasp and hold whatever
within reach of his busy fingers. He
now begins to be sociable n will
try to talk. sometimes making
vowel sounds.
From the seventh month to the
ninth month, he will creep and will
make ecorts to stand. He likes to
initiate movements and to have
sympathy and attention shown MIN.
From the ninth month to the
twelfth month he learns to stand
and from the twelfth to the Six
teenth month learns to walk. He de-
vel3ps a sense of desire to please
and this lads to obedience. SomC-
times at the twelfth month he can
say a few words.
AS improper feeding is one of the
chief causes of a child's failing to
develop properly, too close atten-
ton cannot be paid to the right feed
ing of a young baby.
Be Regular!
A baby must not only have the
right kind of meals but they must
be on time and at the same time
every day.
A baby must have regular hours
for sleep, and he must be put to bed
on time and at the same time every
day.

something between mother and son
which draws them just a thought
more close. in spite of the fact that
mothers and daughters are often
companions.
Mayhap the answer to the riddle
is found in the fact that right from
the start sons require mor atten-
ton than daughters and that shade
more tender feeling Is simply the
answer to an appeal. For the fem
mime heart. If it loves at all, loves
most that one who demands most.
The little son. any mother will tell
you, must be rocked to sleep. The
little daughter can be put into her
bed and left alone. Daughters are
more self-reliant.
1t is the little son whom mothers
rescue most often from the depths
of the mud puddle; it is the little
son whom they follow off down the
street and drag out Of the midst of
a moving knot of squirming bodies
and pounding hands; it is the little
son for whom they have to keep the
dinner warm and then listen to his
sadly misfit tale and perhaps laugh
a little yer it through pure joy of
having him there safely after the
worry.
And so it continues. As he grows
there are still the thousand
and one things which mother can do.

portant than such discoveries as

WEAK BLOOD IS =
A REAL BARRIER
GROWING CHILDREN OFTEN
NEED GUIDES PEPTO-
MANGAN.

Some children grow too quickly-it
saps their stength. They lapse into
careless desultory habits, or develop
a shrinking attitude. Their faces
look pinched.
The blood becomes overtaxed by
too rapid growth; and poisons form
the system take the place of strength
giving red corpuscles in the blood.
Red corpuscles are those little red par
ticles that swim in blood and give it
its color. Gradually that child loses
interest in its play.
Poor blood needs the building that
the iron in GUIDES Pepto-Mangan
gives to weakened blood. GUIDES
Pepto-Mangan enriches the blood by
increasing the number of red corpus
cles, and restores the blood by driving
out the poisons. When the revived
blood gets to work, the appetite be-
comes what a growing child's should
be. Your druggist has GUIDES Pepto-
Mangan in liquid or tablet form.
The name "Gude's Pepto-Mangan" is
on every package. Advertisement.

"A Proclamation"

Whereas, the president of the Unit
ed States has by proclamation desig-
mated the period beginning Novem-
ber 11th, and ending November Oath,
for the Annual Membership Roll Call
of the American Red Cross.
And whereas. we have by the Pro-
clamation of the governor of the State
of South Carolina been enjoyned to
pause from our work, and assemble
in our churches on the 18th day OF
November for the purpose of uniting
IN service of Prayer and Thanksgiv-
irg commemorative of the great Arm
istice Day which marked the end OF
that bitter struggle in which right
prevailed over might and in which
thousands of our citizens laid their
lives on the alter of our country and
now rest on battle fields of France.
And whereas, we acknowledge with
gratitude and thanksgiving the spien-
did achievements of the American Red
Cross, which in that violent contest
drew its protecting arms about our
sick and wounded men of the service,
and now in times of peace extends
its sheltering arms of mercy about
those who suffer from pestilence,
famine, fire and flood and other calam-
tiles and which goes without hesita-
ton, on it's mission of mercy into the
midst of sorrow and suffering and
hunger.
And, whereas, the existence and ef-
ficiency of this great organization OF
human sympathy which bind together
the hearts of the people of this great
nation cannot be maintained and sus-
tanned without the support of that
united sympathy and without financial
cid and assistance of its membership
and supporters.
Now therefore, I, W. R. Scott, may
or of the town of Kingstree, do here
by earnestly urge all citizens OF the
community while in their services OF
prayer and thanksgiving on this great
day to forget not the American Red
Cross and in acknowledgment of its
unexcelled services and achievements
in the past, and in order that its mis-
sion of mercy might be extended and
carried forward with greater zeal and
efficiency in the future, to enroll
themselves in this splendid organiza-
tion and with such further financial
assistance as you might contribute
enable it to more efficiently spread
its atmosphere of human sympathy
throughout the world.
