"Good morning," said the old-fash-1 toned mother, pushing open the door. of the young neighbor's house. "Why, what's the matter?" she gasped. "Is the baby sick?" "Sick?" echoed the young mother. "No, indeed. Doesn't he look well?" "Yes," answered the elderly neigh- bor, "but what are you giving him medicine for ?" "Medicine? Oh, this is not medi- cine," the young mother laughed. "I'ni just giving him ,a drink of water." "Of water? Well, I never! Who ever heard of giving a little baby like that water? Doesn't he got water enough in his milk?" "Of course, he gets a great deal of water that way. But there are times when he is thirsty and nothing but water will satisfy that thirst. You know how it is, I'm sure.

"No, I can't say that it does. But a baby is different. I never gave my babies water except when they had colic. Then I gave them hot pepper- mint tea." "Yes, I know. Sonny has had one or two spells of colic, and I have given him a hot drink; I added a few drops of anise to the water. But usually he takes his water cool— boiled and cooled." "Boiled? What new-fangled idea is that?" The visitor was always get- ting surprises at her young neigh- bor's house. "Nothing new-fangled," the moth- er answered, giving the baby his last spoonful from the cup. "One can't be too careful with a tiny baby, and water may contain germs very dan- gerous to an infant. Boiling kills them all, and makes the water safe. I also sterilize his cup and spoon. "How much does he take a day?" "The quantity varies, but I see that he takes several ounces. I had to increase the amount I was giving him, for I found that his diapers turned red after exposure to the air, and that is a sure indication that his system isnot getting enough water." "Is that a fact? I never knew what caused the change in color. It often worried me when my babies were small." "Yes," putting the baby in the basket. "Sonny's never change color now.

We dressed our china closet anew and made spring meal times glad meeting times. Spring came to our bedroom: we renewed bedding and covers; added l' dainty touches of gaiety and color to • dresser and washstand, for we mean to awaken blithely to the call of the new days. Spring' came to our living room: we Put away the heavy rugs; used a lot of paint, oil and varnish; gave dusty books and magazines a beat- ing; hardened our hearts to cast out winter's useless accumulations; re- potted our plants. Spring danced all around outside the house: we put up new trellises for old vines and set out new vines , for old trellises. The dingy walls' laughed in new tints and the buzzing flies bumped in vain against newly repaired and painted screens. Spring danced on the lawn: we seeded bare spots, raked untidy spots, repaired the fences, rehung the gates. Spring hid in the flower garden: the uncovered the perennials and set out the annuals and kissed the baby buds on the "laylock" bush. Spring beckoned to us from the vegetable garden: we sowed and set and raked and made rows, casting up accounts meanwhile, for Spring, the maiden, soon is Autumn, the matron, and there'll be cans to fill and cash to count, if we make our garden ac- cording to Maiden Spring's best orders. Spring came with a rush to barn and stable, coop, corral and pen: we welcomed and housed and cherished every new young life and— Before we fully knew Spring's glad face, tan-cheeked Summer was upon US.

Desserts From Home -Canned Fruits. When the family begins to tire of canned fruit, or when a company des- sert is desired, try combining with other materials some of the fruit you put up last year. A simple and inexpensive substitute for whipped cream to serve with desserts may be made .by whipping the white of an egg until stiff, adding one table- spoonful of powdered sugar, and folding ,in the mashed pulp of a ban- ana. Do not prepare this until just before serving, as it turns dark if allowed to stand too long. Peaches and Cream—Place upon each serving plate a round piece of sponge cake or any plain cake. Lay on each slice half a canned peach, hole side up. Whip a cup of cream, flavor with vanilla, and sweeten. Cover each peach with the cream, and garnish with a bit of currant jelly. Blackberry Loaf—Bring a quart of canned blackberries to the 'boiling point. place' squares of fresh cake in a square granite pan. Cover with generous spoonfuls of the hot black- berries and juice; add another layer of cake, packing it in well, then more fruit. Alternate until the ash is full, using plenty of berries, as the cake will absorb a quantity of the juice. Cover with .a plate, and place a weight upon it. Let it stand sev- eral hours. When cold, turn it out of the mold, and slice evenly. Serve with cream. Steamed Cherry Pudding—To one pint of sifted flour add Ewo heaping teaspoons baking powder, half a tea- spoon salt, and one heaping table- spoon sugar; rub in one heaping tablespoon fat, and add enough milk to make a stiff batter. Grease cups and into each one put a layer of batter, then one of canned cherries drained of their juice, and so on until the cups are three-fourths full. Steam for thirty minutes. Serve with a cherry sauce made with one cup cherry juice, one-fourth cup sugar, one-half cup water, and one heaping teaspoon cornstarch.

In days gond by an aching or decayed tooth was re- moved without ceremony, except that upon the part of the child. The deciduous or "milk teeth" should have constant care and be kept in the mouth as Yong as pos- sible. If neglected they become the source of great annoyance, to say nothing of their bad effects upon the system in general. Removifig them too early results in deformity of the arches of the jaws and often causes facial disfigurement. Proper care of the child's teeth should begin as soon as the teeth appear. Cleansing thent with a piece of elean gauze and warm water several times daily should be a routine practice. A. little later the teeth should be cleaned by wrapping a piece of gauze around the finger and applying a little good tooth -powder. .When the gums become harder a tooth -brush can be used, if it is kept absolutely clean—a dirty tooth -brush .being worse than none at all. The child should be taught- to brush the teeth with a rotary movement, thus cleaning the teeth without injuring the gums. Even the first teeth should be under the care of the dentist. All cavities should he filled as soon as they appear, as the child will need these teeth for four or five years. The first teeth should be left in the mouth, if possible, until the next set loosens them. This not only pre- serves the arch of the jaw, but it has been found that the permanent teeth do not develop well if the first teeth containing their "pulp" are re- moved too soon. Avoid extracting a loose tooth unless it interferes with the child's comfort. As the teeth play a most important' part in the welfare of the body, their condition sometimes causing rheum- atism and other diseases, too much can not be said regarding their care and preservation. It would be a good investment for the state to furnish free trea.tinent for the teeth of those unable to pay for it. e Somebody's Sky. Mother, with thoughtful brow, You are "somebody's sky!" So, after the time of the chastening. rain Smile down on the little face soon again: Like the opening bud on the orchard bough It needs the warmth of love's sun. shine now, And you are its sky. Friend, beloved by a friend, You are "somebody's sky!" So be glad with his joy, Give both hands to his need: So follow wherever his fortunes lean. Shine when storms burst or lightnings rend It is yours to bring them all to an end If you are his sky!" Lover, on life's highway, You are "somebody's sky!" Some one will forecast their weal and their woe By your sky's summer ardor or chill of its snow: So reek not the clouds round the sun- rise that play, Life's radiant morning and life's twi- light grey Are one 'neath Love's sky.
