Your Baby and Mine
BIZ MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

I'D love to visit mother, but what
shall I do with Ellen Louise? It's so
much trouble and so hot. She's better
OF at home"
Train trips are necessary sometimes,
If only to get away from situations
which are more uncomfortable for baby
than the trip, but they are, neverthe-
less, tremendous bugaboos unless by
practice the mother has learned the art
of travelling comfortably with baby.
The nursing baby is the most cheer
full of travellers. His food arrives on
schedule and with no digestive novel
ties the constant motion of the train
usually keeps him snoozing most OF the
time.
It is the bottle baby who is an eternal
problem. Changes of food and water
are always dangerous, and when these
changes are combined with the excite
ment of the Journey, the worry rs to
their effect Is sufficient to prevent
mother leaving the safety represented
by home.
For a short Journey the baby's
formula may be mixed and boiled for
10 minutes, put into a steril1zeo, glass
lar. cooled rapidly and packed in Ice.
For long Journeys it has been found
most successful to accustom baby be-
forehand to one or the other or the
milks most used for traveling-un-
sweetened evaporated milk, or dried
milk. These can be procured every
| where and are the same under all
climatic conditions; If small cans OF
the evaporated milk are used, one for
each feeding, no ice IS necessary. Cans
of the dried milk can be kept without
ice for several days. Both drleo and
unsweetened evaporated milk ale TO be
mixed when ready for use with boiled
water, and If the water is boiled and
put into the thermos bottle while hot,
no further heating Of the formula Is
necessary.
Our leafet on evaporated milk feed
ings will be sent any reader for the
usual self addressed and stamped en-
velope Directions for feeding dried
milk can be secured from your physi-
clan.
1t Is most convenient to carry two
bags, one to contain baby's toilet
articles dresses sufficient to keep baby
clean, lightweight cover, small pillow,
cap and coat and stockings. plenty of
diapers paper and cheesecloth ones are
the most successful as the first can be
thrown away and the latter most easily
washed and dried) and some light toys
useful for wakeful or fretful periods.
The second bag can contain every
thing necessary for the feeding, steri-
lized bottles and nipples, can of sugar,
small pan, and long-handled spoon,
oranges and squeezer If baby takes
orange juice, small jars Of vegetable
soup or sieved vegetables made just for
baby's use and small enough so that
a can Is used at each feeding, salt, and
cups or plates for the feeding.
Cereal can be procured in the diner
for the older child and the milk formula
used over it. Baked potato at night
can be used in place Of the more
familiar cereal and may be easier to
get at that hour. A ripe, sieved banana
can always be used to replace. cooked
cereal.
Journeys need not be q bugaboo, it
is only the mother who depends upon
friendly passengers to aid her in anus
ing the children, or porter to solve
her feeding difficulties, who goes down
TO defeat.

For q really firSt-clasS crime story
one must 60 back to the Middle Ages.
Love and jealousy evoked actions no
more sensational than are seen today,
but vastly more picturesque. Take the
case in which the principal roles were
played by
/. The Sieur de Faiel, q celebrated
seigneur of Vermandois.
2. Gabrielle, his lovely wife.
5. The CASTELAR, of Coucy, brave and
handsome vassal of the Count Of Cham
payne.
The plot was this: The fair Gabrielle
became the wife Of Sieur de Faiel not
from love, but by arrangement of her
family, the ancient house Of Seigneurs
de Vergy in Burgundy, who had in view
worldly considerations alone. But she
was in love with the CASTELAR, of Coucy.
Now Gabrielle was pure and good,
according to the best traditions of the
fictionists. She was not unfaithful to
her husband, nor did -Coucy endeavor
to lead her astray. But when she heard
that he was about to go on a crusade
to the Holy Land in company with his
master, the Count Of Champagne, and
the King of France, her heart called to
her that she must see him just once,
for the chances were that he might
never return.
A secret meeting was arranged. The
lovers babe good-by after exchanging
gifts. Coucy took with him from her
some rings and diamonds and also a
band woven of her own hair and silk.
with knots of pearls at the ends, which
he was to wear on his helmet.
It happened that Coucy was fatally
wounded at the Siege of Acre. Know
ing himself dying, he wrote letter to
Gabrielle, put it in her hair-silk
bandeau, and ordering his esquire to
embalm his heart after his death, COM
manded him to take the articles secretly
to the lady.
The esquire endeavored to carry out
this mission. Unfortunately he was
intercepted by the Sieur Faiel on his
arrival in Vermandois, and that indi-
vidual seized the letter and the en-
balmed heart and discovered all that
was afoot.
AS indicated before, they performed
their crimes picturesquely in those days
Faiel had his cook hash up the heart
of Coucy with some other meats in q
ragout which Gabrielle particularly
liked and served it to her for dinner
When she had finished eating he told
her what he had done and produced
the letter and bandeau to prove he was
speaking the truth.
Gabrielle responded nobly
1T is true" she said, that have

FOOD PROBLEMS
BIZ SALLY MONROE.
Going to Market.

Some women have a feeling that
there is unalloyed virtue In going per-
sonally to market every day. They
have full fledged scorn of the woman
who sits down at the telephone and In
five minutes tells the provision dealers
what she wants.
But to this, as to so many other
questions, there are two sides. If you
like to go to market, then 60 in person.
If you use an automobile, then you may
charge off the expense of gasoline
to pleasure or else you may think that
you save that much money by going
to market. There are many things to
consider in the question.
But don't allow yourself to get into
the habit of thinking that all trades
men are going to cheat you if you don't
watch them personally. They are not
going to cheat you. Most of them are
honest and give you an honest sale,
whether you stand watching them or
not.
If you do your ordering over the tele-
phone, then be as particular about in
specting the food after it comes to the
house as you would be in the stores.
And be sure that you go to salesman
over the telephone who knows your
tastes and demands. Tell him frankly,
when you begin telephoning to him,
that you will hold him responsible for
sending you goods that you ask for.
that you are willing to pay for them
and want them of first quality.
Very often telephoned orders are not
given as much attention as personal
orders simply because the voice at the
other end of the wire is nothing but q
voice. Get acquainted with the sales
man that takes your orders for lettuce
and beets, with the girl at the desk who
takes your orders for chops and bacon,
and you will have much better luck"
with them.

HearsaY--Coward.

Dear Mimi: What shall do?
am so miserable. like a boy who, my
family and friends tell me, is not worthy
of me.
His brothers and his father have a
bad reputation for drinking. Although
this boy is the only one of the family
who does not drink, he has bad repu-
tation because Of his father and
brothers.
IT know he loves me. He would do
anything in the world for me, as he
has told me many times. When / am
with him, imagine don't like him
at all. But when 1 am away from him
I can't wait until I see him again.
II do not drink, and neither do my
parents. My parents are not kindly dis
posed toward this boy-particularly my
mother, because of things friends tell
her about his family.
II have spoken to my boy friend
about what people say, but he Just
shuts up like clam and says he won t
discuss his family with any one. !
think this is admirable of him, but 1t
hurts me the way people talk. Please
advise me whether I should give him
up"
Congratulate yourself on knowing
boy who possesses singular strength OF
character-and cultivate the friendship.
Virtue which has never resisted tanpta-
ton remains yet to be proven.
If this boy can withstand the In
fluence of every other member of his
family, together with the unthinking,
unkindly criticism of acquaintance
and neighbors, the future will hold few
obstacles he cannot surmount.
The standards your boy friend has
chosen to adhere to now will scarcely
be lowered by the added wisdom and
discernment which years and expert
ence will bring to him.
1t is a strange quirk of human ma
ture-perhaps a throwback to the prlml-
tive-this tendency of ours to do every
thing in our power to down a gallant
fighter. And then, when he wins in
spite of our back-biting and criticisms,
we cheer him who needs no cheering!
You feel assured of this boys sin
cerity.
You are confident that he would do
anything in the world" for you.
You think he is admirable the way
he sticks up for his family.
You know that he is not weak.
Yet you question the ACCESSIBILITY OF
associating with him!
Learn to set your own standards OF
values.
Judee-not according to hearsay,
which may be founded upon jealousy
or viciousness-but by the truth as you
yourself have found it.
Who knows in what direction the
crowd is going? 1t may be stampeded
over a cliff. Step aside, and follow
your own vision.
