Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. A. Nee. writes: MY baby at
birth weighed not quite seven pounds
and now at four months weighs 1872.
have been feeding her every three
hours. but have changed .her to the
fourhour schedule. Do you think
this is enough. considering her
weight? She always wakes in the
break her of this?
"She sleeps fine in the morning. but
not so we'll in the afternoon. She
will not sleep at all until after 10
o'clock feeding and then she does not
go right off. Do you think she is get
ting too much to eat? Would that
cause her to be wakeful?
when should l start TO wean her?
Should [ nurse her through the Sum
mer, or wean her before Summer?
She will be months old In June.
Answer-The baby has made the
average gain in weight and will do
just as well on a four-hour schedule
as on the three. hour periods. She
should have the extra feeding at night.
So do not try to break her of 1t. When
a baby is well satisfied he will usually
break himself of the night feelings.
But when the daytime diet does not
satisfy him he will waken many times
at night to be fed.
1t Is my guess that II you would
give the baby a Complementary feed
ing after the o'clock nursing, or even
after the 3 o'clock one, that the after
noon would not be so sleepless, or the
baby would not wait until his 10
O'Clock feeding before going to sleep.
Try one and a half ounces of milk, the
same of boiled water and one-half tea
spoonful of sugar, given as a compile
mentary feeding after the nursing.
BY all means wean the baby before
Summer. You cannot do the baby
any good by continuing to nurse him
after he is months of age. Prolonged
nursing is responsible for a lot of
nutritional ailments.
Mrs. +. It. P.--Dear lady, you give
me so little to work upon that even as
good a guesser as / am is helpless. If
you want to help the baby'S constipa-
ton through his diet, it is necessary
for me to know something about the
effect of his present diet and what it
is. How much is he gaining? If less
than five ounces weekly, no doubt
more food would help solve the prob
| lem. If he is making an extraordinary
gain, seven, eight or nine ounces
| weekly, there would be other methods
| to use. Please help me with moretde-
tails and then / shall be delighted to
help you. Meanwhile. you may have

SECOND CLAIMANT OF
 PLAINVILLE SKELETON
Missing Teeth May Link It With Sadi's Dis.
 appearance

Information carried In a recent story in the Herald concerning the description of a skeleton found near Electric Field, Plainyil!e, April S, led the family Of Charles Sadis. 50 years old, of 19l High street to start an investigation which may re- suit in the body being identified as that of Mr. Sadies rather than that of Frank Tomalis of 6O5 East Main street, relatives informed the Herald today.
 According to their statements Mir. Sadis. who worked on Sulfield tobac- co farms in the summer and Sulll- vans coal yard in the winter. left home in this city last April and has not been seen since. The authori ties believed that the body found in Plainville had been there for a year and Sadis' relatives say that the body is his.
 Mrs. Sadis, in her anxiety to find out the facts has rot been able to sleep for the past few nights. Her son-in-law, John Moskall, an em- ploye of J. NJ. Curtin Co.,, is now conducting the investigation.
 According to Mia. Tomalis, her husband had no missing teeth but her description of his clothes led the authorities to believe that the body was that of her missing hus- band. The Sadis family basis its claim on the fact that Mir. Sadis had two teeth missing in the same place as those found in the skull and that the cap found near the body tallied with that of their husband and l father.

 The premium O. s24,oOo an- nua!ly was to have been with drawn from the estate of the young heiress.
 George w, Nickersham, the child's guardian, said in his ap- pICation that it was the wish of Glorla's mother to assure eco- homie security for her daughter.
 Foley ruled that an investment Of S@4.aoo Q year for 20 years would produce a larger sum than the proposed insurance policy and he also held that the guard ian had no legal right 10 incur a debt for the child which would run for three years after she be- came of age.
