Don't Make aToY
Out of BabV
Babies Have Nerves
By RUTH BRITAIN

Much of the nervousness in older
children can be traced to the over
stimulation during infancy, caused
by regarding baby as sort of ami
mated toy for the amusement of
parents, relatives and friends. Baby
may be played with, but not for
more than a quarter of an hour to
an hour daily. Beyond that, being
handled, tickled, caused to laugh or
even scream, will sometimes result
in vomiting, and invariably causes
irritability, crying or sleeplessneSs.
FretfulneSS, crying and sleepleSS-
ness from this cause can easily be
avoided by treating baby with more
consideration, but when you just
can't see what is making baby rest
less or upset, better give him few
drops of pure, harmless Castoria.
It's amazing to see how quickly it
Gains baby's nerves and soothes him
to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or
opiates. 1t is purely vegetable-the
recipe is on the wrapper. Leading
physicians prescribe it for collie,
cholera, diarrhea, constipation, gas
on stomach and bowels, feverishness,
loss of sleep and all other "upsets"
Of babyhood. Over Is million bot
ties used a year shows its over
whelming popularity.
With each bottle of Castoria, you
get book on Motherhood, worth it's
weight in gold. Look for Chas. H.
Fletcher's signature on the package
so you'll get genuine Castoria. There
are many limitations. - Advertise

KINGS BAY, Spitzbergen, July 5.
Three of the twenty-four men
who have been trapped within the
bitterly cold Arctic wastes have
come out alive, while reports are
reaching here that three others
missing since May 30-have been
seen.
The three men who came out
were the Russian aviator BabuShkin
and his two aides.
Babushkin started Friday an air.
plane search for members Of the
crew of the dirigible Italia. He was
working in connection with the
Russian ice breaker Maligin. He
SCARED away in his specially
equipped polar plane and hours of
silence followed.
Four days passed without a word
of the Russian hero, who had Of
fered his life in an attempt to aid
the stranded Italia men. His radio
was of small range and signals were
not picked up.
Fights Way Back
A strong fog held over the terri
tory. The Soviet government ex-
pressed the hope throughout that
Babushkin had landed because of
the fog and that as soon as the fog
lifted he would rejoin his mother
ship.
Babushkin flew back to the Ma
1igin yesterday. He told how he had
been forced down in open water be-
cause of the fog and how he and his
two companions had battled for
hours to prevent the floating ice bars
from crushing the fragile seaplane.
Finally he was able to take off
and return without having sighted
any of the missing polar explorers.
Meanwhile, reports drifted here
that the Stockholm Dag Bladet had
printed an interview with Capt. H.
Riiser-Larsen saying that the men
on the ice encampment, started by
Gen. Umberto Mobile and now con-
trolled by Lieutenant Viglieri, had
traced Finn Malmgren and two

Three Men Missing
These three men were landed
with the Dirigible Italia. After the
ice encanpment had been built,
they started walking toward Foyn
island to get rescue for their COM
panions.
Nothing has been heard from
them since, despite that the best
three dog sleigh teams are search
ing for them now.
Captain Riiser-Larsen here said
he could see no reason as yet why
Malmgren and his two companions
should not be alive, provided they
were able to fight off exposure and
any polar animals.
They had a food supply for fifty
days, provided it was properly
rationed, the flier said.
Meanwhile, no word has come
here Of Road Amundsen and his
five aids, who started to search for
the crew of the dirigible, nor has
there been any word of the six men,
who drifted away in the envelope of
the great polar craft after it had
made its forced landing.
