Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

The first breath the infant draws IS
accompanied by a cry. In that mo-
ment his blood circulation changes, the
lungs expand and begin their lifelong
| service of contributing oxygen to the
blood stream.
The small baby spends some por-
tionS OF every waking moment in cry
ing. He may cry when he wakes up,
he may cry when he is picked up and
likewise when he is put down. There
is nothing in any of this crying that
indicates suffering: it is the baby'S
usual response to change of any kind,
Up to the age of three months, or
thereabouts, it seldom means desire
for anything. It is just loud, healthy
vell causing baby to turn red wave
his arms and legs vigorously, and ends
as abruptly as it began, if the child
is left alone
Hurrying to pick up baby and de-
tract his attention is the most sue
cesSful way to teach him to cry for
that attention. Babies during the first
month will learn to stop crying when
picked up, and it won't be long until
their cries are directed definitely to-
ward the accomplishment of that end
Obviously it is this habit which is
deplored by persons helping young
mothers in rearing their babies. For,
however willing the young mother is
to hold and carry the new baby, this
slavery rapidly becomes irkSome, and
as 1t does the child no good and actu-
ally depriveS him Of the Test periods
which he would enjoy if left alone, it
is not to be encouraged If the cry
continues for lengthy period it GER
tainly has meaning above and beyond
mere physical exercise and the mother
would be cruel to ignore it.
Hunger and cold will produce s'ltfi-
cient discomfort to stimulate the small
baby to cry, and pain will be unmis-
taxable, for the child will then cry
even while being held, and will Strug-
gle, have cold hands and feet, and If
it is collie (Which it probably Isl, a
hard, taut abdomen.
The cry of the sick baby is thin and
fretful, not a vigorous yell or cry Of
pain. His every wall is indicative of
his thorough unhappiness. If he is con-
stantly fretful and irritable his condi-
ton is not good and should be attend
ed to without the excuse that baby
needs certain amount Of crying"
Such an attitude will blind one to the
obvious facts.
Inc nIanC SpenuS more tIIIle cry
ing than the older child. unless the
latter has been spoiled, and it is in
teresting to find in a record of the one
baby's whole day in Ges-
sells Mental Growth of the Pre-school
Child" that this healthy infant spent
nearly 90 minutes, from in the morn
ing to $50 at night, in crying, and this
was exclusive of fretting. But at no
time did he crV longer than 20 min
utes, which would give mothers bet
ter idea of what to expect in the length
and numbers of crying spells.

pie who did not know his key; even
then he was easily set right again.
He had the art of disposing his time
so well that his hours glided away in
one continued round of pleasure and
delight, till an unlucky minute put
period to his existence. He departed
this life, wound up in hopes OF being
taken in hand by his Maker and OF
being thoroughly cleaned, repaired and
set a-going' in the world to come"
From H. D. H.
"As father Adam first was fooled,
A case that's still too common,
Here lies a man woman ruled,
The devil ruled the woman"
From the same reader we received
the following:
Tread softly, mortals, DER the bones
OF the worlds wonder, Captain Jones,
Who told his glorious deeds to many,
But never was believed by any.
PoSterity, let this suffice:
He swore alls true, yet here ne lies.
In a Pennsylvania cemetery, accord
ing to A. F., is the following epitaph:
Here lie two dead children, dear,
One buried at Baltimore, the other

And fopS around them f1utter,

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

November 2, 1S61.-Franklin Square
is now occupied by the Sd Battalion of
Regulars, which is a remnant of regi-
ment decimated by 13 years of struggle
against the Indians on our Western
frontier.
This battalion served with distin-
guished bravery in the Mexican War.
Immediately after which it was dis
patched to New Mexico. where the SOL
diers were employed against the Navajo
Indians and other tribes hostile to the
whites Operating mostly in small
scouting parties, they chased the In
dians from point to point, inflicting
much damage on them. Occasionally
there would be pretty big fight.
Upon the breaking out of the Civil
War last Spring these troops were Or
dered to Washington, where they are
now serving as a provost guard. Their
encampment is regarded by military
men and civilians who have inspected
it as a model of cleanliness and good
order Their evening parades are fire.
quently attended by large crowds of la
dies and gentlemen, who have expressed
the highest admiration of their eyo-
lutions
Their services as provost guard are
thoroughly appreciated by the citizens
of Washington, according to opinions
heard on all sides, and it is stated that
many of the residents in their vicinity
are petitioning the authorities to allow
them to remain in Washington.
This might suit the men themselves,
while the Union Army is resting on its
arms, but when the expected advance
begins. it is considered probable that
they will prefer change of their quar-
tiers in Franklin Square for term Of
active service against the Confederate
forces in Dixie, where they can have
some real ighting-something they
have grown to like during their long
years of campaigning against the hos
tile Indians.
The 5th New Hampshire Regiment
has gone into camp near Bladensburg
Md. 1t consists of 1,034 officers and
men and is considered the equal, If
not the superior, of any regiment yet
sent out by the Granite State. This
regiment is commanded by Col. Ed
ward E. Cross, formerly of Arizona.

bill, and will be unable to check UP
on any item in it. AS for guessing the
weight. or size of a piece of ice try to
do it. You will be surprised to find how
easily one may be deceived regarding it.
Many households run telephone bills
in blind way. There are long distance
calls, overtime local calls, suburban calls
and the like, but when the bills come
at the end of the month nobody seems
to remember who made the calls that
run up into real money.
When you drive your car into the
corner gas station do you sign receipt,
or do you accept the monthly bill with
out question? 1t is difficult to question
such bill without receipts.
If your milk and bread deliveries vary
from day to day, or at all, have you
any record at the end of the week or
month of just what you have used, or
do YOU run along blindly?
If we do not watch out measures be-
come approximate, or accounts become
doubtful, but we have no protection un-
less we have accurate records or re-
ceiptS. Many women are running blind
ly into needless expense.

Running Blindly.

Quite few women run up bills in a
blind manner. This becomes habit,
so that month after month bills are re-
ceived and paid, and the woman who
pays them has no way of checking up
on value received" 1t is human to
err, and it is natural for some folks to
take advantake of our indifference or
neglect to their profit.
We are not advocating a bookkeeping
system for the home, nor household
auditor There are some systems prac-
ticable in business which involve too
much detail work for the home For
tunately, there is no need for any elab-
crate system of any kind.
Let's begin with the ice box. When
the ice man totes around his load in
the morning do you check up on the
weight or the size of the piece? 1t
should be observed that weight is the
only accurate test. Or do you say:
Morning, Tony, put in a large piece
today" Then do you wait until the
end of the month to learn the cost or
dimensions OF weight Of the piece?
If you do you viii have a varying Ice
