Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELpRED.

Most mothers understand that sun
baths, such as are given children when
the temperature is mild, are quite diff
ferent from taking the baby out daily
in the sun and air, wrapped as a pro-
lection from the weather. Sunbaths, to
be effective, either indoors or out, con-
sist of direct sunlight mot through
ordinary window glass; falling upon the
childs bare skin. There are one or
two substances through which the I'LL
tra-violet rays will pass, one OF which
Is artificial silk. When the wrapped
up baby is taken out of doors about the
only areas of skin that can be barred
this time of the year are the face and
hands. These can be bare, and II the
exposure to the skin Is made gradually
1t won't be SO very long before baby
can be having a daily sunbath again.
When sunbathS are given, or ultra
violet ray treatments for ricketts,, cod
liver oil is unnecessary.
Mrs. r. l.. NICK. writes: Many
mothers find sunbaths difficult this
time of year. have found means to
eliminate wind. / put the baby in her
carriage and wheel it into the garage
which faces South. In the sunny path
of the open doorway the baby gets sun
and not wind. Unless the garage faces
north. there will be some time in the
day suitable for the sunbath. The
child faces the dark cool walls of the
garage and has the sun on the sides"
Mrs. E. C. w. writes: II have to give
the baby a formula in addition to nurs-
ing Is it worth while to continue
nursing, when the baby gets less from
me than from the bottle?"
Answer think it wise to continue
the nursing as long as possible: if this
is done regularly there is a good chance
that the complementary feelings might
later be eliminated.
