Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
Premature Ba bies.

It Is so natural for mothers to
want their children to keep up with
every one else's children that the
problem Of the premature child is
made more acute. AS soon as the
semblance to q child of normal size
with other children and worries be-
cause of it's size or development or
whatnot.
This is q mistake. The premature
baby seldom equals the normal child
until 1t has attained 5 years Of age.
After that if its early feeding and
care Thave been good, 1t should be
OF normal size and development and
there will he no difference between
1t and other children of its age. But
the baby of l or 2 years who was
born one or two months prema ture
will not approximate the normal
child and should not he expected to
DO so by its anxious mother.
The premature baby must he
cared for differently from the nor
mad child. even II It is at sufficient
strength to be kept out of an incu-
hator. It's bodily heat is so low
that it must be kept warm constantly
by hot-water bottles around II. II
very small no effort should be made
to dress 1t, as the baby's meager
strength is dissipated by too much
handling. 1t should be wrapped In
cotton or lambs wool and oiled once
a day instead Of bathed.
If possible always It should be fed
mothers milk and II 1t is too weak
to nurse, the milk should be ex-
pressed from the breasts and given
from a tiny bottle. The mothers
breasts should he pumped regularly
SO that they will not cease to func-
ton and will be ready when the
baby is strong enough to nurse.
Such baby should be kept as
uuiet as possible and no strangers
allowed in the room. 1t is best for
one person to handle the child and
this as little as possible. The tiny
body has little or no resistance
against disease and persons with
colds should be kept out of the room
II the wee flame Of life can be
nursed along by these methods and
the food proves digestible there is
every chance for the baby to live.
When It's age ID approximately that

but IL is never safe to take the least

The New Teacher.

Miss Ruby started teaching with a
great thrill. Her heart was uplifted
by the thought of what she was going
to do for the children who were going
to sit in the benches before her. This
was her great opportunity. For 10
years she had studied and dreamed
toward this day when she would step
before a class as their leader and
friend. She went into the ofiice and
reported for duty.

CHAPTER XxXI.
The Green Hat.

That night Florence was in hel
room when Richard entered th'
house. She heard him come in and
in his precise way 60 to the closet in
the hall to put away his hat and coat.
Next came his footsteps on the stairs.
A. he paused in the doorway she
wheeled around on her chair. Her
face wore q set smile.
Hello" Her heart skipped beat
as she spoke. There was something
about the expression of his face that
made her sure that he had recognized
her.
He came into the room and sat
down on the bed. Usually Florence
would have insisted that he get up
and take a chair. Tonight she said
nothing.
Florence. aren't you making your
self too conspicuous with young
Thorne?"
Florence arched her eyebrows as
though surprised. with Merton
Thorne? why, 1 don't think so. He
comes to tea occasionally, but so do
many Of the other boys"
Her heart was leaping in her
breast. She was sure that until today
Richard had had no suspicion that she
carried her friendships with any of
the college men so far. If only he
weren't sure that he had recognized
her. If there were some doubt in his
mind, she might still extricate herself
from this tangle. Why not take a
chance and brazen 1t out? He would
be only too glad to believe her.
She drew her brows into a puzzled
frown. II don't understand you,
Richard. Is anything on your mind ?
What prompted you to mahe such a
statement" Her tone was the per-
soniflcation Of innocence, and as she
watched him narrowly she saw an
expression Of doubt cross his face.
She was suddenly exultant. He
that she had taken the right tactics.
Luck was certainly with her.

EVERYDAY QUESTIONS
Ansrered by DIR. S. PARKES CADMAN

lief incline toward religious training
for the children in the faith Of their
parents. unless the parents object.
The schools which give that train
ing are within the law as defined by
the Supreme Court Of the Nation in
it's recent decision upon the State Of
Oregon's statute forbidding such
schools.
Some large cities have made no
provision for the children attending
parochial schools. In New York alone
300, 900 of these children would be
without any educational facilities il
the parochial schools were closed.
This is the practical phase Of the ques-
ton.
Meanwhile home training in religion.
which is the key to the situation, has
so largely broken down that the
churches and their kindred organiza-
tions can hardly cone with it.

with him this afternoon. Mrs. Ed
redge and Andy Patterson were in
the back seat. l recognized that lit
tie green sport hat you wear so much.
but 1t shadowed your face and
couldn't be sure
Florence's laugh rippled out easily.
MY dear. half the women in town

began. They're the rage this sea-
SON. A sudden recollection Of having
seen one exactly like hers and Of
where she had seen it flashed across
her mind and she went on quickly
and a little breathlessly.
LAS a matter of fact. Jean has a
green sport hat that she wears almost
constantly. How do you know it
wasn't Jean you saw this afternoon?
She and Merton have been driving be-
fore this. Mother came over here one
afternoon all worked up about having
seen them together"
Richards kindly face grew troubled.
II can't believe 1t was jean" he said
slowly. shes too much in love with
Conrad"
And I'm not too much in love with
you, is that it," Florence forced a
wistful note into her voice. She must
play up to Richard in order to lull his
suspicious. and she knew quite we'll
that any overture on her part would
do a great deal.
"Of course. dear" she went on
quickly. II don't say that 1t was
Jean, that wouldn't be fair. But you
must remember this: Jean is very
young and II Hamilton is slow for me
it Is for her. Then. too, she and Con
married on impulse. like a couple of
brainless young idiots. They had only
just met. while Jean has known
Merton Thorne for wears"
As Florence talked she grew grad
ually aware Of the fact that she was
making things look very dark for
Jean. But. after all. what did II mat
ter. Richard would never say any
thing to any one. and it was to save
herself.
