Your Baby and Mine
Trials of Prospective Mother.
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDREp.

One Of the real crosses borne nv
the prospective mother is the nausea
which almost invariably accompanies
this condition. The nausea of the
early weeks is perfectly natural, and
is probably due az much to nervous
ness incident to this condition as any

see that this nervousness would lead
to that.
Now we arrive at the next step
The mother is mel vous about herself.
She becomes nervOusly nauSeated and
Athen she vomits. Having vomited. the
Edea becomes fixed that she can't take
food without vomiting. After that
il becomes increasingly difficult tn

nothing wrong with her and that she
can eat without vomiting if she will
only make up her mind to il.
Taking some food before arising III

Is or 20 minutes afterward will settle
the stomach so that she will he able
to take her breakfast without any
trouble. Several mornings of this

ting better, and from that point il is
a short step until she does get better.
Eating five or six times day. and
small amounts at time, or directly
after vomiting spell. will give the
mother sufficient nourishment to srs-
tain her and settle" the stomach
Solid food is better than liquid as il ~
mere difficult for the stomach muscles

II there is persistent vomiting after
one has taken these simple steps to
ward an abatement of il. then there
is some more serious fault than Just
a mental state which was the initial
cause of the vomiting. and a habit
state which made il continue.
An examination will tell the doctor
many things and Ivy means of this
knowledge he can advise the correc-
tive medicines.

between man and the anthropoid ape
is not yet filled up and the missing
link" not yet discovered. This is a
most perverse statement, and can only
arise either from ignorance of the
anatomical, embryological, and paleon-
tological facts, or incompetence to in
terpret them Alright. AS a fact, the
neurological chain that stretches
from the lemurs to the earlier western
apes, from these to the eastern tailed
apes, and to the tailless anthropoid
apes, and from the direct to man, is
now uninterrupted and clear. It
would be most plausible to speak of
missing links between the earliest le-
murs and their marsupial ancestors,
or between the latter and their mono
IRENE ancestors. But even these gaps
are unimportant, because comparative
asatomy and embryology, with the sup
port of paleontology, has dissipated
all doubts as to the unity of the NAM
malian stem. It is ridiculous to ex-
pect paleontology to furnish an un.
broken series Of positive data, when
we remember how scanty and imper-
feet its material is.
l cannot go further here into the
interesting recent research in regard
to special aspects Of our simian de.
scent; nor would 1t greatly advance
our object, because all the general
conclusions as to mans primate de-
scent remain intact, whichever way
we construct alphabetically the spe-
cial lines OF simian evolution. On
the other hand, II is interesting for us
to see how the most recent form of
Darwinism, SO happily described by
Escherich as Ecclesiastical evolu.
tion,' stands in regard to these great
questions. What does it's astutest

phibians, which no BIOLOGIST hesitates
to admit today. The relationship is as
close as was claimed by my former
fellow-student, the Berlin anatomist,
Robert Hartmann with whom sat
at the feet of Johannes Muller fifty
years ago), in his admirable work on
the anthropoid apes 1889. He pro-
posed to divide the order of primates
into two families, the primarii (man
and the anthropoid apes, and
simianoe (the real apes, the catarrhine
or eastern, and the platyrrhine or
western apes.

Dubois, discovered the famous re-
mains Of the fossil aape-man (pithe-
canthropus erectusy eleven years ago
In Java, and thus brought to light "the
missing link" a large number of
works have been published on this
very interesting group of the primates.
In this connection we1may particularly
note the demonstration by the Strass-
burg anatomist, Gustav Schwalbe, that
the previously discovered Neanderthal
skull belongs to an extinct species OF
man, which was midway between the
pithecanthropus and the true human
being--the homo priniigenus. After a
very careful examination, Schwalbe at
the same time refuted all the biased
objections that Virchow had made to
these and other fossil discoveries, try
ing to represent them as pathological
abnormalties. In all the important
relics Of fossil men that prove our
descent from anthropoid apes Virchow
saw pathological notifications, due to
unsound habits, govt, ricketts,, or other
diseases Of the dweliers in the dilu-
vial caves. He tried in every way TO
impair the force Of the arguments for
our primate affinity. So in the con-
troversy over the pithecanthr5pus he
raised the most improbable conjec-
lures. merely for the purpose Of de-
stroying its significance as real link
between the anthrop6id apes and man.
Even now, in the fcontroversy over

L Of 100000 workers belong to no
unions at all or are affiliated to the
company associations. This large body
Of unorganized presents a definite
problem to the organized section of
the workers in their efforts to secure
wage increase. To build and
strengthen the weaker organizations
therefore becomes of prime impor-
lance. Some of the unions, such as
the Switchmen, Telegraphers, and
others, have been for some time con-
Quoting vigorous organization drives
and making encouraging gains. At
the recent convention of the Railway
Employees Department, representing
nine of the railroad unions, a resolu-
ton was unanimously adopted calling
for a united organization drive by
those unions. This campaign will
soon be under way and by concerted
action and the united support of all
other unions substantial results will
be obtained.
The Company Unions.
TOGETHER with the unorganized,
4 the company unions constitute a
most serious barrier to the progress
Of the organized workers. Being
under the complete domination of the
companies they will be used by them
to check the wage increase movement
among certain classes of railroad
workers. The fight against the COM
pany unions is now taking shape. All
standard organizations are conducting
educational work among their own
members, as well as reaching large
numbers of unorganized and those ac-
tually in the company unions. The
unions are coming to the realization
that the company unions are one OF
the greatest hindrances to secure a
raise in wages and to build and
strengthen their organizations, and
that they must be entirely eliminated.
A GENERAL wage increase cover
A ing all railroad workers, organ
ization of the 100000 unorganized
into the standard unions, and the
elimination of the company unions are
the immediate issues confronting rail-
road labor. To be successful in them
