er II ran. Soon 1t was out Of the banks
of the Laughing Brook. The two ponds
of P~idy the Beaver were 50 full that
the water was running over the dam,
making waterfalls. And it was running
around the ends Of the dams
1t roared down the Laughing Brook
below Paddy's ponds, and the usually
quiet Smiling Pool in the Green Mea-
dows became a pond and then a lake
as the water overflowed the banks and
swept over the Green Meadows, while
through the middle of the Smiling Pool
surged an angry current.
Jerry Muskrat had not thought any
thing about 1t when the rain first
started, He had noticed that the water
had been rising in the Laughing Brook
and the Smiling Pool for several days,
but this had not worried him. 1t was
to be expected this time of year The
snow sad all disappeared from the
Green Meadows and Jerry could see no
reason why there should be any higher
water than usual this Spring.
But with the beginning of the second
day of rain Jerry began to be anxious.
The water in the under part of his
house in the Smiling Pool was getting
deeper and rising dangerously near the
level Of his bed room floor. Would It
get inside the bed room? A little
wouldn't do much harm, but II that bed
room should be filled he would have to
leave his house altogether. He remem-
bered the never-to-be-forgotten time
when his house had been swept away,
and shivered at the memory.

helping make the tent. Back and forth

Famous Authority on Etiquette.

dinner, must he ask some woman friend
to be hostess, and if so, must she be
married woman?'
Answer.-Not as a hostess, but ne
should include one married woman, or,
if she be not too young, his unmarried
sister would satisfy modern proprietles.
"(3) If you have two distinguished
guests for dinner, one a foreigner and
one an American, which should De
seated at the right Of the hosteSs?"
Answer foreigner. Not because
of his title. but because he Is stranger
At a diplomatic dinner, where ottclal
rank is observed, an American of high
rank would take precedence over for
eign title without diplomatic rank. A
young American woman married to a
foreigner of title need not be given
/ precedence over an American woman OF
great distinction or age. For example
Miss Jane Addams should certainly be
seated on the right of the host, rather
than the American wife Of European
of title, though many hostesses Woulc
seat them the other way.
80 Is it ever permissible for the
rule that gentlemen stay in the dining
room after formal dinner. instead OF
following the ladies to the drawing
room, to be disregarded?"
Answer-This depends on the def
nition of the word formal" At &
strictly formal dinner, no. But remem.
ber, a formal dinner is becoming eacf
year rarer And at 80 dinners out o.
every 100, the men take coffee with thu
ladies' in the drawing room, or not, a.
they prefer.

Your Baby and Mine
Young Mothers.
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDREn.

Mothers Of two or three children
laugh at the timidity they displayed
with their first baby. They admit that
they wouldn't do one thing without
consulting their doctor or looking it up
in the book"
Most young mothers have no knowl-
edge. no experience and, therefore, no
Judgment. They have to build up
body Of knowledge given them by peo-
pie whose business ii is to know all
about baby rearing and feeding and
training. Until they have acquired
this knowledge from authoritative
sources, they should be tinid about
using their own judgment. Mistakes
are too easy to make and too hard to
correct.
l applaud the young mother who
wants every single thing explained to
her satisfaction. Mrs. F. NJ P. has re-
celved some Of my leaflets. but there
are still things which puzzle her. She
writes, My baby is three and one-half
months old, weighed five and three
tourths pounds when born and now
weighs II pounds. She gets six feed
ings Of six ounces each Of a dried milk
powder dissolved in water She gets
Two teedlngs Of orange and prune Juice
oally, One-half ounce Of juice in two
ounces Of water. She cries for more
OF TINS. She cannot be induced to take
put an ounce or so of plain water, but
VIII drink all she can hold OF water
iiavored with these fruit juices. Shall
l continue as I am doing or dilute
them more to satisfy her?
Does prune Juice take the place of
orange JUICE. or is the latter essential
IN the diet? Is pineapple Juice apt
20 upset the baby? gave her one
spoonful Of it and she seemed dis
tressed afterwards. I have been told
that her reStlessness at night is caused
by her receiving too little water. Is
that true?
she gets very little nourishment
from me. Up to 10 days ago she would
nurse before each bottle feeding Now
she refuses the breast What shall I
do about that?"
She gets 36 ounces of water In her
formula, one to two ounces of plain
water and five ounces with fruit Juices
-conserVatiYely AZ ounces in all. She
weighs II pounds. 1t is figured that a
oaoy needs two and one-half to three
ounces Of fluid for each pound of
weight One and one-haf to two
ounces OF THIS amount will, of course.
be milk Plainly there is no lack of
/
Increase the amount of orange iuice
TO one ounce, add another half ounce
OF water and omit the plain water.
Prune juice does not substitute for
orange juice. Tomato Juice does. Both
orange and tomato Juice are rich in
vltamin c, the element which is dimin-
ished or lacking in all pasteurized,
boiled or canned milks of anv type.
Orange juice or tomato Juice must be
used TO provide baby with these fresh
elements or she runs the risk of de-
Veloping scurvy. Evidently pineapple
juice does upset your baby.
When babies get used to bottle feed
ings. they spurn the difficult work of
nursing II there is little for them.
they are certain to refuse to work so
hard for nothing. That is Just human
nature. The present formula is enough
Tor the baby, and in addition give more
orange. juice. Start cod liver oil. You
have forgotten about that and the
cause Of the restlessness at night may
lie right there
