THE HISTORY OF ME BY ME
CHAPTER XVI


I don't thing I exactly live to eat
but I certainly look forward to my
meal-time. AS I have told you many
times before. I have a very special
milk made for me alone by my beau
tiful Mama herself for her own baby
boy.
AS she is very careful to eat the
foods that supply all of the elements
needed for my growth and develop
ment, naturally I am speeding along
at great rate; and, fortunately, the
same foods that are good for me are
good for my Mama also.
She watches my weight-and she
watches hers, too! Our Doctor has
emphasized the importance of her
not getting overweight. Many times
mamas, knowing that they have to
eat to supply their babies also, do
not watch their own weight and they
become very fat and their health is
liable to suffer, and then their milk
is not so good I have told you this
before but I think it is worth re-
peating because it is SO important
MY milk my Mama makes is the
most delicious food I have ever tasted
in all my life! You will laugh at
this for you think I have never tast-
ed anything else, but you are mis-
taken, my dear. I do know what
baby calves food tastes like now! And
I don't like it. j don't like it little
bit
Yes, since I wrote you last d big
change has come into my life. The
other day when my mea1-t1me came
and I saw my Middle coming to get
me. I wiggled all over with excite
ment and happiness, not simply be-
cause I wass going to be fed am
not such a gourmand as that, you
Understandable I love that precious
woman beyond all power of express
sion.
Well, Middle took me UP and we
sat in our litter rockerf. L cudd1ed
down to her breast, but it was not
given to me! Wondertngly I looked up
I found her holding my bottle that I
take water from sometimes, and IN
| it was a whitish looing fluid. Take
this, baby dear" Middle said. I took
it, thinking perhaps it was a new
kind of nice water. But it wasn't. 1t
was a nasty tasting stuff made of this

spat it out, IT can't take it, on my

He waited, but there wasn't an an
swer- Ed spurred his pony, and the
latter started on a weak walk into
the MARK mLsts that were now flood
ing the a1kali flats. The rider set
his face on the sky, still luminous
and rosy, and a split in the black
outlines of the distant hills showed
MIN the route he had to go.
The pony and it's rider were swal-
lowed up in the blackness, which
might as well have been the body of
the ocean as a stretch of sand.
Ten minutes passed. There was a.
movement on the ledge. The suppos-
ed sleeper raised his head. He listen
ed and waited. The devil of the
Canada had also whispered in his
ear.
He felt back on the ledge. He
CROPPED for the missing grub and
found the empty pail. He laughed in
hysterical way
II knew it, came the words from
his cracked lips. How does it run?
My minds wandering, I guess. Tried,
Ell? And found wanting. Yes, that's
the right phrase
. Silence settled on the ledge again
The man there had crawled off and
fallen onto the sand. He lifted him
self and went off across the flats. He
sta ggered, it is true, but he showed
more latent strength than would
have been expected Of him. He kept
on and on awkwardly through the
light sand, not minding the little ed
dies of a1kaH he raised. He seemed
not to suffer very much from the
dry and acrid dust he was inhaling-
He must have gone on in this way
for at least half a mile, always keep
ing close beside the cliffs, when he
came to some ground where the all
kali hadn't yet killed the sterile soil.
Hearing the soft nickering of a
pony, he laughed and stumbled on.
In a minute he came to where the
animal was tethered to a greasewood
BUSH.
You're going to water, Billy" he
murmured, patting the pony.
Releasing the animal, he guided his
way through the darkness as before
still keeping close to the granite wall
| until he reached the small water
| hole between the broken rocks.
Both of them drunk greedily. The
man now mounted his pony and rode
| off across the flats, but, instead OF
| to the west, he was going south.
| The desert of the Canada was life

and the other no less.

will like it after while, truly you
will. Come, dear, that's a good boy!"
'fBut what's the idea, Muddie?"
Just this, sonnie sweet. Doctor says
that it is good thing for all babies
to have one bottle a day from about
the second to fourth month and then
when they are weaned their little
tummies are used to the artificial
food and it is not so difficult for them.
And that gives the mamas long
period once during the day or eve
ming SO that If they want to go out
to some place where it would not be
wise or convenient to take their pre-
cious babies, they can go and not
worry for fear the babies sare starv-
ing. Don't you see, dearest? You
want mama to be able to go out
once in a while and not be unhappy
about you. don't you dear?"
I'll say I do. I told her. So I
took it manfully, but Gosh, I didn't
like 1t. I think I would have pro-
tested a little longer If hadn't found
OUT by experience that my mama is
developing a lot of stickt oitiveness
when it comes to having me do
what she thinks is right for me.
For while she was so tender and
soft like, she loves me so, that I
thought I was going to have my way
with her all the rest Of my life. But
apparently she has discovered that
while I am a big fine boy with
will of my own. she really is nucn
bigger and older than I am-and as
she knows best what is good for me.
she has decided that I am not such
a big boy yet that she has to show
me. So obey her! Comical, isn't
it, how soon we babies learn.
got one ounce of the milk and
two ounces Of the water, mixed, on
the first day and mama is going to
increase the milk one-rourth ouncr
every day until I get half milk and
half water. In that way I get used to
being a little calf, I guess! I don't
like this business at all. I shall ter
you more about my formula next
week.
There is another reason I have
thought of that makes the one poe-
tie a day good for US nursing babies
after we have good STRAIT of two or
three months. That is, if our n1amas
had to go on a very long journey, or
If anything should happen that they
could not nurse US. we would then
be accustomed to the other milk and
it would not upset us SO much when
we had to be totally fed on the
stuff
L guess it is good plan, don't youp

FACE POWDERS

FACE POWDERS
once heard discussion between
two women concerning the habit OF
powdering the face. Both women had
as nearly perfect compilations as 1
have ever seen, although neither OF
them was under 40. The elder of the
two was pronounced blonde with a
skin of fine texture and without a
blenaish. She was deploring the fact
that the present generation of young
women had the habit of powdering
the skin. She believed that her own
we'll preserved skin was a reward for
never having used powder in her life.
She argued against the use of powder
as impeding the full action of the
skin.
The other one smiled sweetly and
replied that she had never known a
day in her life when she had not
either powdered or been powdered,
since both her mother and grand
mother had believed in the habit as a
protection to the skin. "I would not
feel clean without it, she emphasized.
well, I would not feel clean with it,"
was the reply. Both of these women
had excellent health, and were in
terested in SO many things that they
had kept not only their bodies but
their minds exercised; their good
compilations were a result, and TIE
power or lack of it had nothing to
do with the texture of their skin.
Unless there is a great deal of pow
der used, I do not think it could IN
jure the skin provided only a pure
article is used One of the incest
powders that I know is the plain I'M
scented rice powder. This is pure ana
very cooling to the skin, and any per-
fume may be added. There are very
few powders any more that would be
hurtful to the sin. except perhaps
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-09-15

the powders put up in liquid form and
their injury results from a clogging
up of the pores and a drying out of
all the oils in the skin. The con-
slant use of such powders would
shrive1 the skin and cause the face
to line permaturely.
In any case, use only little pow0er
mere touch over, the nose, chin and
cheeks, and only enough to soften and
remove the shine from the skin. Any
more than this is not in good taste.

thing in the cream that disagrees

VETERANS SUFFER FROM COLD
Measure Offered to Provide Shivering Men With Clothing Now Being
 Eaten by Moths.

War veterans are suffering from the cold ip the very shadow of ware houses where vast quantities of sur plus army clothing lie idle. This anomalous condition will be righted If bill favorably reported In the house by the military affairs committee is passed.
 The bill authorizes the secretary of war to cooperate with the surgeon general in providing all disabled vet erans under care in government hog pitals and institutions with adequate clothing and equipment. Thousands of dollars worth of this material is now stored away, inviting moths, while thousands of former soldiers are shivering from exposure.
 House leaders have demanded a special rule for consideration of the measure. Statements were made on the floor that if congress could rush through an appropriation of $20OOO,- 900 for starving Russians, 1t ought to be able to put through a simple bill to help cold service men.
