 Farmer Browns Boy stood with a pail in each had, staring over among the trees to where he could see that some animal had passed, and that moi so very long before. Even from that distance there was an untamiliar look about those tracks. Farmer Browns Boy set his pails down and went over for good look at this strange trail. When he got whore he could see the print of each foot his eycs fairly popped out of his head. Yes sir. Farmer Brown's Roy was pop-ey"d, He rouldn't believe that he was seeing what he knew h" was seeing. Those footprinis were like the footprints of Black Pussy the Cat, but they were the biggest footprints, except ing those of Buster Rear, that he eyer had seen in tho Green Forest.

 So Farmer Browns Boy went back, picked mp his pajis and con timed with his work. When he got back to the sugar house he told Farmer Brown ahout those big footprints

 "l have hcen," replied Farmer Browns Boy. "and vou can seo them, too, if you will come with me"
 "You'vo forgotten how big the prints Of Yowlor the Robcat are, " said Farmer Brown. "There is no other Cat around these parts 10 make Jig footprints. Those arc Yonlor's beyond a doubt"
 But Farmer Browns Boy was so insistcnt that finally Farmer Brown went with him 10 look al the strange tracks When he saw them a funny look swept over his face. You arc right.

 Causes of Illness

l'y DR. HUGH s. Ct' MINING 1 Surgeon General, L. g. Public | Health Service
 l There are a number Of important
 points to be remembered in nurs- ] ing a baby. It is always wise to i make nursing as easy as possible
 for the mother and to give her
 opportunity for rest, therefore the sooner the baby is satisfied and 1 gaining on a three or even a four i hour nursing schedule the better. 1 II has been found that conven-
 tent hours for nursing the baby are
 as follows: If seven musings are required within 24 hours the most
 convenient time schedule is ono
 which runs 6 a. m., a, m.. r
 noon, D. m., 2 or 10 D. m., an0 once during the night.
 If six musings are required dur ! ing the twenty-four hours. q con
 v"nicnt schodle is a. m, 2 a. m. l2 noon, D. m.. ?. n1. and at the mothers bed time.
 { Tf five nrsings in twonty-fonr hours are required, a. n., 1o q.
 m., 2 ?. m, 6 ?. m. and 10 ?. m.,
 or later is the most convenient schedule.
 The hahy should he offered cool boiled water between feelings os- 1 prcially during the hot months. The length Of time for q nursing i varies with the child and with the
 mother. The average child rarely
 nurses longer than fifteen minutes | The important point is 10 satisfy 1 the baby. r there is any doubt, the baby should be allowed 10 nurse longer but not more than twenty
 minutes, r. a child is not satisfied after twenty minutes of nursing n [ physician should be consulted. 1 It Is customary 10 nurse one
 breast at each feeding and 10 all . tl ildl's i''4llELlili-o u 4ttl PpflS tlltt[
 this method does not provide sui
 ticiont nourishment. In such cases ] both breasts should be given. In all
 cases of breast trouble a physician
 should be consulted, Breast ab- ] scosses are not unknown and may
 result if an abnormal condition is
 not attended 10 as soon as possible. Several weeks are required fol veaning. IL is dangerous 10 wean young baby and this should never he done without the advice of q physician.
 The flow or breast milk tends 10
 diminish when the baby nurses less
 than five minutes in twenty-four
 hours. When the baby is being
 nurscd once every four hours and
 is not satisfied il is better 10 give
 him after nursing enough modified
 cows milk 10 satisfy him rather
 than to replace nursing with the
 bottle. Most babies ned additional
 food after the seventh month.
