Your Baby and Mine

Mrs. w. S. A. writes: 81 secured one
of your feeding leaflets when baby was
2 weeks old and have used 1t ever
since with wonderful results. Baby
weighed pounds and 10 ounces at
birth, and now at IA months weighs u
pounds. He has II teeth, walked at
one year and has been an almost per-
feet baby. I credit this to his feeding.
AT months began giving him
a bottle after each nursing and at
7 mont hs he was entirely weansd.
always gave him orange Juice and
water from a cup. so that at 10 months
he refused a bottle and now takes all
his milk from a cup.
He cut his stomach and eye teeth
will eat the ready-cooked kinds. Is
this all right with his fruit and milk
at night?
He cut his stomach and tye teeth
and lower molars all within two weeks.
Now he is cutting some upper teeth
and his gums are red and swollen. At
times he just stands and shakes his
bed and screams. Could his teeth &C
count for this, or is it temper? What
would you suggest to rub on his gums
Answer am always gratifled to
hear of readers success with the leadet.
We feel that the new one is going to
be even more helpful.
Ready-cooked cereals are all right
for child this age. Some types are
not as nutritious, tablespoon for table
spoon, as the whole-grain, unlocked
cereals. For a change you can use a
ripe, sieved banana or a baked potato,
as these replace cereal in the diet.
Rub the childs gums with ice water.
This is soothig and harmless. Perhaps
he is lust tired of being penned up in
his bed. Teeth may make him irritable,
and restriction of his activity may, also.
He can only express his disgust by
screaming and shaking the bars OF his
cage. Take him out of bed and change
his surroundings when he screams this
way. that is, unless 1t Is bedtime.

John c. Calhoun once had his resi-
dence there.
And during the Civil War it was
converted into a Federal prison where
secessionists were incarcerated.
The history of the "Old Capitol" dates
back to the year 1914, when invading
British soldiers set fire to Washington.
The Capitol building and practically all
other Federal structures in the city
were burned.
There had to be a place where gov
eminent could be administered.
There were many in favor of moving
the seat Of Government to some other
city. It was argued that Washington
had been defiled by an invading force,
the city rendered helpless, and was in
constant danger Of again being at
tackled.
But there were as many who opposed
removal of the Capitol from the spot
selected by Washington himself. And
among this number was John Law.

til the Capitol was rebuilt.
BY a close vote his proposition was
accepted.
December 8, 1915, Congress moved in.
Law estimated the cost of the struc-
ture at $4,000. exclusive of the value
of the site itself Some IS, 900 Of this
amount was employed in equipping the
building for the use Of the National
Legislature.
The annual rental was placed at
81 $50. The Government had to take
care Of the insurance.
Congress held sessions there until
December 7. 1919. when the Capitol had
been rebuilt sufficiently to provide a
meeting place for the body.
