Boiled Water—Eighteen ounces. Sugar of Milk—Four level tablespoonfuls. From this point until the baby is eight mpnths old two ounces of skimmed milk' should be added and two ounces less` of boiled water used The sugar of milk in the formula should be reduced one-half teaspoonful every three months: Formula at Eight Months:— Cream—Nine ounces. Skimmed Milk—Twenty-seven ounces. Boiled : Water—Twelve ounces. Sugar of Milk -114 level tablespoonfuls. At this age the formula may be made from whole milk as follows: -- Whole Milk -Thirty-six ounces. Boiled' Water -Twelve ounces. Sugar of Milk -41/2 level tablespoonfuls. From this point on to thirteen months the formula may be increased by replacing' the boiled water with whole milk two ounce each month. At thirteen months the boiled water may be omitted from the formula, one ounce a week. Beginning at the age of eight months the sugar may be gradually reduced one tablespopnful each month: At the age of five months or at any time after that, barley water is a very good substitute for the boiled water in the formula. A sign indicating the use of barley, water is the failure of the baby' to gain in weight. Gain in weight is one of the best signs that the baby is doing well. Another indication for barley water is the appear- ance of the baby's movements. If they are not well digested try the use of' barley water. Barley water is made by mixing two level ' Earley Water teaspoonfuls of Robinson's or Brook's barley flour to enough water to make a paste, add water to one pint. Boil for twenty minutes in a double boiler.. Strain through two thicknesses of cheesecloth. Add enough` boiled water up to one pint to make up for what has boiled away. Lime Water. This is added to the formula if the baby spits up its food or if the stools are too frequent or slightly' green in color. if used it and tt should be added in the proportion of one-fifth of cream and skimmed milk. re staiilf For example in the formula for a new-born baby there are four ounces of lenete' milk and cream. One-fifth of this is about three-quarters of an ounce. The. boiled water should be reduced by this. quantity. - Boiled Water. All water used by the baby should be boiled. In addi- tion to. the quantity given in each feeding the baby should have some boiled. water'..,a couple of times a day, At first it may have ere -half to three-quarter; of an otrnce, twice a clay. This should be gradually increased until at tbreY months he is taking four or five ounces a day. Give it before the bath in• the morning end in the later afternoon. • Sugar”of Milk. The best sugar to use is lactose or sugar of milk. EE EL .5. r;. CHISELHURST Despite the ;stormy night a large crowd attended the Cowl supper here on Tuesday [night.

This may be used when the baby does not digest sugar of milk well, does not gain in weight, or is constipated. It should not be given if the baby vomits or has loose movements. Cane' Sugar. Cane sugar Or ordinary granulated sugar is often used, It is cheaper .;and more convenient and many babies do well on it, but- it i,5 not so satisfactory as -sugar of milk. Changes should not be made excep' on: the advice of a physician. Amount at a Feeding. The stomach of a baby is quite small. 'If toe much food is given or if it is given too often the stomach becomes distended, indigestion is set up, and the babymanifests its discomfort by crying or; restlessness. At birth the average baby will take with comfort from one° half to one ounce, This amount may be gradually increased at the rate of an ounce a week up to eight ounces at a feeding. The average amount of food. for a baby to take ,,is one ounce more than he is months old. Big healthy babies will take more than small delicate ones. • Method of Feeding. Do not prop the bottle up and leave the baby to teed,, itself., Hold it throughout the whole nursing. Occasionally take it away to let air into the bottle Each,feeding should be given slowly, taking twenty or twenty-fiVe minutes (To Be ;continued Next 'Week,) 12.

Dear Mr. Editors— Thanks for your kindness in allowing me the privilege of appealing to your readers this Christmas time on behalf of the Hospital for Sick Children, the "Sweetest of all Charities," which has as its ni's fou the care of the helpless, the sick, the crippled and the deformed. There never W4 S. a yea!' in the his- tory of the., Hospital when funds to carry on the work were more needed than now. , Your purse is the Hospital's Hope. Your money lights the candles of mercy on the Christmas trees of health that the Hospital plants along the troubled roadway of many a little life. So I am asking you for aid, for the open purse -of the PIospital's friend is. the hope of the Hospital at Christmas, just as the open door of the Hospital's mercy is the hope of the little children throughout the year. elO Calls on generous hearts are many in these times.' Ca1Is on the Hospital are many at all times, and especially when food and fuel and drugs and ser- vice costs are .'soaring high. YOU,. know the high cost of living. Do you know the high cost of healing—of. helping the helpless to happiness? What you do to assist is the best in- vestment you will ever make. Do you realize what this charity is doing for sick children, not only of Toronto, but for all Ontario, for out of 'a total of 3,740 in -patients last year. 646 came from 254 places outside of Toronto. The field of the Hospital's service covers the entire Province- from the Ottawa to the far-off Kenora —from the borders of the Great Lakes to the farthest northerly district. The Hospital is -doing a marvellous work. If you could see the children with crippled limbs, club feet, and other deformities, who have left the Hospital with straightened limbs and perfect correction, your response to our appeal would be instant. In the .Orthopedic Departments last year a total of 330 in -patients were treated; and in the Out -Patient Department there were 1,946' attendances. *Let your money and the Hospital's mercy, lift the burden of misery that curses the lives, cripples the limbs and saddens the mothers of the suf- fering little children. Money mobilizes the powers of help and healing for the Hospital's drive day and night against the trenches where disease and pain and death assail the lives of the little ones. Remember that every dollar given to the Hospital Is a dollar subscribed to the Liberty Loan that, opens the orisons of pain. and the J3aetilles of disease', and sets little children free to breathe the pure air, and to rejoice in the mercy of God's sunlight. Will you send a dollar, or more if you cern, to Douglas .Davidson, Secre- tary;'Treasurer, ,or' 3. ROSS- ROBERTSON, Chairman of tt.e Board of Tnisteoa. WILALEN.

Of all things a sweater coat, wnieh is seen El so much, must be kept soft, fluffy, fleecy and "new" I in appearance. You can keep yours that way and wash it again and again if you do this: MOR Pour boiling water over LUX flakes—pure essence of soap—allowing 3 or 4 tablespoonfuls for every gallon of water you use. Whip into a creamy lather—a few seconds is needed. Then put in the garment and stir it about. Let it soak until cool enough for your hands to squeeze the water out of the coat -the dirt just runs away. Rinse in twoor three relays of tepid water, and hang to dry. Very simple.
