largely proof against other germs

velop poisons in it.
The tactic acid germ or mi

one most highly appreciated by

quickly to conserve his precious
milk against the heat and all
pervading germ life with which
he is surrounded.
Milk soured bv the friendly

longer than either sweet milk or
milk scured by other bAotoE1A-
What In true in AxablA, in

is equally true in the United
States Of America.
The germs of Tactic acid
abound in the alimentary canal

act better on mothers milk thar
ON either cows milk or condensed
milk or substitute foods.
That IL one reason why the
mother who wishes to protect her
baby against easy invasion by
germs that cause serious disease
should feed that baby at her
breast.
This rule applies with special
force to babies up to the eighth
month.
What I have just said does not

children beyond eight months.

<<T'M SUSPICIOUS Of that
couple" said the cynio
- thoughtfully." They call
each other dear and darling too
often and too loud"
When Shakespeare said, "The
lady doth protest too much" he
meant much the same thing. And
when Paul urged that love does
not vaunt itself, he too had the
same idea in mind.
For real love il often inarticu-
late, when sham emotion can
find words to express more than
it feels. It 10 not by what you
say, but by what you express in
understanding and sympathy

that you prove the reality of
your feeling.
Don't judge love by the words
1t employs, nor yet by the still
ness it maintains. The love
which cherishes you most dearly
may be wordless. The heart that
beats most tenderly for you may
never inspire lips to flights Of
poetry and wooing. Cordelia-
