Dennis had crossed to the centre
of the stream by a way* of his own,
and we ran down to the stepping-
stones by which we had come, in
ceder to save the time which we
shauld have been compelled to waste
in feeling for a foothold as we went.
Every Second was of importance, and
I fully expected to see Dennis topple
unconscious. into the pool below be-
fore I sh•ould be able to. save him. I
knew what it was exactly; he was go-

held an ,ann pointing up the river, his
face transfixed with an expression. of
hoeeified amazement. Suddenly ail-
derman gave a hoarse, slailrehout,
breaking almost into a scream.,
"Shut your eyee!" he yelled. "Shut
your eyes! Oh, for heaven's sake,
shut your eyes!"
But I never though.t of foflowing
his advice. Dena -lies immovable arm,
pointing like an inanimate signpost
up the elver, fascinated me. Slowly
I raised my eyes in that direction.

cry, lost my looting, slipped, and fell

Before putting the baby into the
tub, wrap him in a small blanket or
laege towel, and wash his face, head,
and ears, being careful not to get soup
into 1110 eyes and mouth. Very little
soap is needed. It is most .important
that the skin should be rinsed thor-
oughly. Pat the skin dry with a soft
towel, taking care. to dry well back
of the ears and in the soft fold e of
his neck. The eyes should be cleansed
with absorbent cotton dipped in
boracie 'acid volution. Squeeze a drop
into eaeh eye, ibeing careful to use
a fresh piece of -cotton for each eye.
The mouth and nose then should be
cleaned with an applicator dipped in
ballade acid- solution. An applicato'r
is made by twisting a serial]. tuft of.
absorbent cotton upon the end of a
wooden tooth pick in such a way as
to make a rounded pad. If made cor-
re.etly, the cotton. will not slip off
