Mrs. A. H. writes:
II would like to start my baby girl

ings. She is months old and weighs
20 pounds. She wakes up about every
two hours and feed her. This makes
me think that she must need some
other food. She Is teething right now
also. II you advise the bottle feed
ings, does one use certified milk and
how shall | prepare it,"
Answer.--A baby Of 6 months weigh
ing 20 pounds could not possibly be
undernourished.
If he keeps on gaining. he will be
a tremendous size. Stop nursing at
night and give only boiled water
when he wakes up and shortly he viii!

Mrs. P. j. S. writes: Il can't un-
derstand why my lS-month-old baby

babies weigh more. There is nothing

Answer.-The baby is much under.
weight, and for one thing there seems
to be no necessity now for using any
dilution in the milk. Four cups of
whole milk would be all right, and at
her age should be easily digested.
Perhaps you are giving her too little

HOW 1T STARTED
BY JEAN NEWTON.
IF Worst Comes to Worst.

II we analyze It, there is not much
sense in this expression. Its signiti-
canoe in everyday speech Is CLEANED
from its old and repeated use in our
language rather than from the sum OF
its individual words. IF the worst
comes to the worst" means something
to US, even though on the face of 1t
the words seem illogical.
The phrase is traced back to that
veritable mine Of epigram and pithy
saying, the romance of Don Quixote,
by the great Spanish author, Ger.
vantes. II appears in the first part OF
the old classic, which dates back to
1905. A very short time later we find
it used in an old English play, The
Phoenix" by Thomas Middleton,
where in act 3, scene l, we find THE
worst comes to the worst" Cotem-
porary, too. is its use in Marston's old
play. THE Dutch Courtezan," where
we find it in the first scene of the
third act.
And from such ime.honored and lit
erary beginnings the saying was
launched into everyday speech, where
it has survived to this day.

he was smart enough to profit by that
| lesson. He was a changed young
Grouse. Mister Snlarty didn't fit him
as a name any more. AS a matter OF
fact, he soon became the smartest of
the flock. But he never showed off.
Every time that he did a smart thing
and knew he had done a smart thing
and was tempted to show off. he would
remember the time he had thought he
was so smart. but wasn't. At once he
would become very humble.
He got to thinking this thing over
one day Its queer" thought he.
but my brothers and sisters seem to
like me better than they used to. Yes,
sir, they do so. l don't know just
why they do, but they do. After all.
its is a great deal nicer to have people
like you-really like you-than just
to admire you because you are smart
My, 1t is surprising how much there
is to learn in this world II ever

anything. Now | know better. |
know that there is something TO learn
every day, and the ones who do not
learn are not the ones who are going
to live the longest"
Now this shows that little Mister
Smarty really was smart. From the
time he started out in the morning
to hunt for his breakfast with his
brothers and sisters until he went to
bed at night he was busy every min
ute learning something. He noticed
just how his mother was continually
listening So as he watched her he
would continually listen. In this way
he soon learned what different sounds
meant. He soon learned to tell when a
sound was suspicious. He soon learned
to pay no attention whatever to harm.
less sounds. He watched his mother
and copied her movements. He was al.
ways at her heels. doing exactly as
she did. Many times he did things
that she did without having the least
idea why they were done. But after
a while he began to understand some
Of these things. So it was that after
time Mister Smarty once more de-
served his name, only with a different
meaning. First he had been called
Mister Smarty because he thought he
knew It all. Now the name fitted
him because he was truly smart. Yet
he never showed this smartness off.
He never appeared to think he was
any smarter than his brothers and
sisters. This is because he was hum
BILE as we'll as smart.

of self. and when this Is accomplished
self-consciousneSS is baniShed.
All this may sound reasonable and
theoretically satisfactory, but how is
the desired aim to be attained in a
specific way? 1t must be remembered
that whatever else lies beyond our
power we do have control of our
thoughts, or we can have II we wish
No one can prevent our thinking what
We wish. We ourselves are absolute
rulers over our thoughts. If at times
they do seem ungovernable, we can
turn them or supplant them by per-
Sistence.
Eliminate Fear.
One thing to be overcome is fear. A
self-consciouS person is afraid she Will
not appear to advantage, that she
may say or do the wrong thing, that
her dress is not correct for the occa.
sion, that her house will not seem we'll
kept. or any one of a thousand diner
ent things may come to mind TO dis
turb her poise.
Think Of Others.
Instead OF attempting TO stop such
thoughts. thing hard OF something
else. Let that something else be the
comfort or pleasure of the person you
are with or the company in which you
are. You will become absorbed in
ideas outside yourself as soon as you
can benefit others or help them to
have a good time. Before you are
aware of it you have lost your self.
consciousness. You have overcome it
in the finest way.
Ways to Interest.
II you know a person we'll, you will
realize the subjects that interest her.
Ask her about them. Talk about them.
She. or he. will become absorbed in
the favorite topic. You will be eonsid-
cred a good talker merely by putting
in a word now and then TO stimulate
the conversation. Remember all you
can that relates TO the subject. Your
thoughts Will be kept busy, and there
will be no opportunity for selfcon
sciousness. If you meet a. person and
have no idea in what their interests
lie, watch carefully for some hint. The
weather will form topic only until
something better occurs to one of
YOU. Perhaps she Tor hel casually
says, This is a wonderful day for
golf"--or it may be tennis, or a walk
in the woods, etc. Follow it up with
something. about the game, the course.
the courts, the country, etc. Or II the
weather is stormy. perhaps the sub
ject Of reading. sewing. indoor games,
etc. may be brought in, and here is
The lead to follow. How can a person
think of self when using every effort
TO think of what would be interesting
to some one else?
Happy Arrangements.
If persons call think OF their com.
fort. Try TO seat them where they
will have the best view. either out OF
doors or Of viStas in the house. Oc-
cupy yourself for as brief time as
possible in getting tea and buttered
bread, cakes, or merely tea and crack
ers. Or, II people call in the evening,
offer chocolate or coffee with cakes or
crackers. Nothing is more conducive
to pleasant conversation than such
homelike hospitality. Forget self in
seeing that the people have things to
their liking. 1t is apt to be engrossing.
Then be ready with topics of the day
to discuss. Show yourself acquainted
with what Is going on and you will
be sure OF finding a topic Of mutual
interest. Self.consciousness is gone.
