Under this head short articles will

FEEDING THE BABY DURING THE
FIRST SIX MONTHS!
This refers only to breast feeding;
the subject of other kinds of milk will
be taken up later.
The baby should be put to the breast
during the first six hours in order to
get the first milk that the breast se
cretes, which acts as a laxative. The
nursing of the baby will also stimulate
the breast to secrete more milk. Be
fore and after each nursing the nip
ples should be bathed in a solution of
boracic acid and the baby’s mouth
should also be washed with the same
solution. This is important because if
the nipples become cracked and chap
ped and infected from the mouth ab
scess of the breast is very apt to occur,
which sometimes results in loss of
function of that important organ. Ev
en with the best of care it sometimes
occurs. During the first three days
there will not be much milk for the
baby and it is best to give him a little
warm water with a medicine dropper
to supply the necessary fluid that the
body demands, but the continued nurs
ing will soon start the milk to flow
and the baby will show a degree of
satisfaction after each nursing. It
may be best to let him nurse from both
breasts at the same period, particular
ly when the milk first appears, as then
it is apt to flow too freely.
During these first few days the in
tervals between nursings should be
about six hours, gradually lessened as
the milk appears, to three hours and
unless there is a reason for a change it
may be kept at this interval. But the
important thing to observe is regular
ity. A baby should be fed by the clock,
and not by the wishes of the baby/
The period of nursing should not
exceed 20 minutes and as it has been
shown that in the majority bf cases 75
per cent of the meal is secured in the
first five or six minutes it is often un
necessary to continue the period for
more than ten minutes; never any
longer than 20.
The best schedule to follow in the
matter of interval is to begin the day
at 3 a. m., the next nursing at (i a. m.,
then at 9 a. m., at 12 m., 3 p. m., 6 p.
m. and the last at 9 p. m. It may be
necessary for a while to feed at 1 or 2
a. m., but this should not, be continued
for any longer than is absolutely ne
cessary, and it is not often that it is
even well to do it at all. The baby
and the mother need this time to rest
and the baby’s stomach needs the time
too. There is a time when sleep is bet
ter than food and this is one of them.
.Never get into the habit ot letting
the baby nurse between proper hours
because it cries. Its stomach needs all
the interval for proper digestion of
the milk and if it does digest properly
the baby should sleep from one feed
ing to the next, practically the same,
day and night. They should have at
least 22 hours sleep out of the 24.
Then if the baby is fed when it cries
it will soon acquire the habit of cry
ing, because it will learn that it re
ceives this attention, and that is a
very hard habit to break. Likewise,
it is bad to picld Up and carry the
baby wheit it cries, it is far better to
see if there is any good reason why it
should cry and if so, relieve it, and if
not let it cry as long as it wants to
and then it will soon find that it does
not get the attention and will quit.
They learn good traits early as well
as bad ones. It is sometimes neces
sary to protect the face from scratch
ing at this time by^ little mittens.
As soon as the cord is off the baby
should be given a daily full bath and,
for this purpose there should be pro
vided a small bath tub over the bottom
of the tub and undel* one end of it a
half-filled water bottle for a pillow,
which will greatly 'relieve the hand
when holding the baby in the tub.
Use a soft cloth for a wash cloth and
some mild soap such as Ivory; there
is no better. The temperature of the
water should be such that the elbow
can be placed in it with comfort. The.
bath need not take more than two min
utes in the water, after which the baby
AT THE EMPRESS
All Comedy Tonight—Sunday and
Monday Two Famous Triangle
Plays.
A program combining a rattling
good drama story, with an equally
good comedy relief is the novelty off
ering at the Empress theatre Sunday
and Monday, March 11 and 12.
In the drama we have Bessie Bar
riscale, the fascniating and versatile
star of many notable productions of
the speaking and motion drama, but
it is said that she is at present at her
best in “The Golden Claw,” the drama
to be presented Sunday and Monday.
In this play Miss Barriscale is shown
as living with her mother. They are
in strained circumstances through liv
ing extravagantly. As a result the
girl determines to marry a man of
wealth. Her choice falls upon a rich
youth whom she frankly tells that she
is marrying him for his money. As
the story further unfolds on the
■screen it will be seen how the youth
by lucky deals and some equally un
lucky, has his “ups and downs,” los
ing all affection for his wife, but in
the end the estranged wife is again
safely restored where she rightfully
belongs in his affections.
xnow tnen lor tne comeuy in wmcn
appear the two famous comedians,
Weber and Fields. There has always
been a magic about the name of Web
er and Fields. For' many years their
first night performances were the
most notable events on Broadway. It
was nothing uncommon for a single
box at such showings to sell for $100
and sometimes a single seat fetched
$30. There was something irresisti
bly comic about the appearance of the
pair, and they have never shown to
better advantage than in their scream
of screams, “The Best of Enemies.”
Their great forte has been in com
edy which emphasized their difference
in size and peculiarities of gesture and
walk. Joe is short and fat, while Lew
is tall and thin. Joe is always blun
dering and Lew is coming to his res
cue but often making things worse.
«•
They are always inseparable and one
is always butting into the affairs of
the other. They usually fall in love
with the same girl and their attempts
to cut each other out are comical in
the extreme.
For a time the partners separated,
but there was something lacking as
long as they were playing separately.
Lew needed Joe and Joe needed Lew
and now they are doing their best
work as a team in motion pictures.
All comedy program for this Satur
day evening, interlaced with Pathe
News of current events. 586
should be thoroughly dried with a
soft cloth; do not rub dry, but rather
dry by gently patting the skin. Use
talcum powder in all the folds of the
skin after it is dry. Then with a warm
solution of boracic acid wash out the
eyes as directed in a previous article,
likewise the mouth and nose, the lat
ter by using small twisted rolls of cot
ton wet with the solution.
The baby should be weighed every
week. During the first week there will
be a small loss which will soon be re
gained and after this a steady gain
each week of three to six ounces should
be made. If there is no gain and like
wise no loss in weight there is no
.cause for alarm, as many babies re
main at a stantjstill for some time in
this manner and then suddenly begin
to gain and do so uninterruptedly.
However, if there is a steady loss it
should be investigated, as there will
always be found a reason, though it
may not be easy to do so. The baby's
weight is the most important single
item to watch in the progress as it is
by this alone that you should judge.
There are other things, such as vom
iting, the character of the stool, but
we are now considering a well baby.
The regular feeding at intervals of
three hours and nothing but mother’s
milk will do until the child reaches the
age of five or six months when it
should be given about half a tea
spoonful of orange juice with a little
sugar in it, at first every second day,
after a while giving it every day, and
increasing the amount to a full tea
spoon.

THE STORY OF THE FATE
OF SCOTTY ALLEN’S SLED
With an admiring: audience looking
on yesterday coming to the conclusion
that the better the day the better the
deed, Scotty Allen launched and start
ed up his new motor sled. As usually
happens when everyone is looking on
ready to say “I told you so,” the ding
banked thing insisted upon miscon
ducting itself and steered badly, but
down the ice the motor sled flew to
use a Homeric expression, like the mill
tails of hell. Going about 15 or 20
miles on the ice with three men
aboard, as luck would have it again,
the forward engine timbers broke and
wrecked the machine. The experi
ment showed the inventor that he has
ample power, for at no time did he
open it up to full speed even while the
the machine ran splendidly. The rea
son for its bad behavior on the street
was because the narrowness of the
skids made steering almost impossi
ble. Scotty had anticipated that and
contemplated remedying what he felt
certain would be a defect. He intends
to rebuild the sled at once, profiting
by experience to make the forward
timbers heavier and more strongly re
inforced for the work which will be
expected of it. On the whole the ve
hicle is constructed on the right lines
and the key to the solution of autolo
comotion in the winter time in Alaska.
