Your Baby and Mine
One Difficulty Of WEAVING.
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

The longer the baby is nursed the
more difficult 1t becomes to induce him
to take bottle. Almost all the prob
lem children of the weaving period are
children who have been nursed one year
or longer. They determinedly refuse
the bottle, shut their mouths and turn
away their heads and want only the
breast.
Obviously, when weaving time has
arrived, one must go through with II.

Evidently the psalmist spent d great
deal OF time gazing into the heavens
and contemplating the handiwork Of
God. From such contemplation there
came 70 him the grandeSt conceptions

vulgar, frivolous, coarse, narrow and
sordid. Their thinking b all earth

"A british man knoweth not" A

there are many men who are nothing
more than creatures Of the dust living

He does not understand because he has
