Water Puts Babies to Sleep.
, The people who live in the moun
tains round Simla have some very
curious customs. They believe, for
instance, that children benefit by
having cold water poured on their
heads, though they are unable to
state wherein the benefit lies. Ba
, bies, from shortly after their birth
to the age of four or five years, are
daily put with their heads under a
small stream of water, remaining
there for several hours without wet
ting its clothes. The water hits the |
top of its head and then runs off
without wetting it3 clothes. The
water has a decided soporific effect,
putting the child to sleep almost at
once—which may be the explana
tion of the popularity of the prac
tice. One or two women usually
remain in charge of a bunch of ba
bies.—Wide World Magazine.
Making Sura.
Two old Scotsmen were discus- |
, sing the domestic unhappiness of a
I mutual friend. “Ay, ay,” said one,
I “Jamie Thompson has a sair time
j wi’ that wife o’ his. They say
| they’re aye feehtin’.” “What else ]
can ye expect ?” said the other j
j scornfully. “The puir feckless crea- j
ture marrit after coortin’ for only !
seven year. Man, he had nae chance
to ken the woman in sich a short i
time! When I was coortin’ I coort- I
ed for twenty year!” An amused
listener to this dialogue ventured to j
, ask if this long courtship had in
| sured connubial bliss, whereupon
| the old Scotsman replied, “I tell ye
II coorted for twenty year, and in
that time I kent what woman was, j
; and so I didna marry!”
