" WFwW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1914, Page of News for Theater Goers and Women Readers WHAT EVERY MOTHER WANTS T0 KNOW ABOUT HER BABY By Anna Steese Richardson, Director of the Better Babies ‘Bureau of the Woman’s Home' Companion— Ques- : tions of Many Mothers Answered. NO. 6—Weanin g and Teething. (Copyrght, 1914, by the Woman's Home Companion.) 1.—My baby is a year old. Dare I wean him in summer? Yes, unless he is in a very delicate condition and your physician advises against it. As a rule mother’s milk is not sufficiently nourishing for a baby twelve months old or more. ‘Wean him gradually, not suddenly. At first, substitute one bottle feeding, about mid-day, for a breast feeding. Give whole milk, eight ounces or sixteen tablespoons; barley water, two ounces or four tablespoons. If pos- sible, persuade the baby to drink this from a spoon or cup. It is time he learned to drink. If he refuses, then resort to the bottle. At the end of three or four days, if he seems well, give two bottle or cup feedings in- stead of one. At the end of a month or six weeks he will be weaned. It is a mistake to withdraw the breast ab- ruptly and give nothing but modified milk. This should be done only in case of emergency, dangerous illness of the mother, etc. 2,—My milk does not seem to satisfy my six morths baby. He wants to nurse constantly and cries a great deal. Should he be weaned? Not abruptly and not without con- sulting your doctor as to your own ccndition. ‘Your baby is hungry or spoiled. If you are anaemic or poorly nourished, your milk does not satisfy his hunger, and vour strength should be built up. If your milk is rich, he has been spoiled by irregular feeding and knows that by crying he will be fed at any time. Have the Wreast) milk analyzed. If the baby needs Grandma Never Let Her Hair Get Gray Kept Her Lockg Dark, Thick, Glossy, with Sage Tea and Sulphur. When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because-it’s done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and trouble- mome. For 50 cents you can buy ‘at any drug store_the ready-to-use tonic called “Wyeth's. Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy.” You just damp- en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morn- ing all gray hair disappears, and, af- ter another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. You will also discover dandruff is gone and hair has stopped falling. Gray, faded bair, though no dis- grace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with ‘Wyéth's Sage and Sulphur and look years younger. i | milk teeth. more nourishment, build up your own health and gradually feed him modi- fied milk from a bottle, .spoon or cup, | preferably the latter. 3.—Does weaning increase the dan- ; ger of feeding? Not when the baby is teething nor- mally and his digestion is generally | good. Teething is a normal process. | Illness: during teething comes gener- | ally from digestive disorders, not from | the pain of dentition. Wean the baby | gradually, using judgment in se- | lecting the formula, feed regularly, | watch the bowels carefully and if the | baby seems normal, there is no danger, 4.—When should a baby be weaned? Progressive physiciens and baby specialists no longer set a definite month for weaning. In fact when a Faby is healthy, the process is auto- | matic, starting within a few months after birth. A bottle feeding is given | once a day, in place -of the usual | breast feeding, at three months or| even earlier. This is increased to two feedings a day at six months. - Soon after this, the baby is trained to drink | modified milk from a spoon or cup | and at twelve months it is ready to give up the breast entirely. This rlan is approved because it prepares the baby for any emergency such as maternal illness, death or separation, and it gives the mother more liberty. Mcst important, it accustoms the kaby’s stomach gradually, almost im- perceptibly to cow’s milk. Sudden changes in diet are always dangerous. 5.—When should baby be weaned? ,If he is in good condition, that is up to the proper standard of weight and general health, at nine months he may be fed some foods, like gruel, or his modified milk, and even beef broth from a cup along with half a bottle. At a yvear, such a feeding is substituted for the usual bottle feed- ing. At fifteen months he has three bottle feedings and two cup feedings. At sixteen or seventeen months, he has three meals a day, and a bottle at 9 or 10. At eighteen or twenty months no bottle is given at night. The weaning is accomplished. the bottle-fed 6.—When should a teething? Babies begin teething at different times. Sometimes delayed teething iy a family trait. More often it is due tc ill-health, malnutrition, rickets or other constitutional diseases. The breast-fed child teeths earlier and more easily than a bottle-fed baby, and usually exhibits its two lower middle teeth at six months. If no teeth have appeared at nine months, a doctor should be consulted. An average table of dentition is this: Twelve months, six teeth; eighteen months, twelve teeth; twenty-four months, sixteen teeth; thirty months, twenty teeth, the complete first set or baby begin KEENEY’S ALL THIS WEEK BUSH AND ENGEL.

The pain from teething is not sufficient to cause convulsions, but pain, a slight { 1 temperature, and indigestion together ! will bring on convulsions. 8.—When lanced ? On the advice of your physician only. | If the gums are swollen and discolored and there is fever with vomiting and perhaps slight diarrhoea, send for vcur doctor at once. This may mean the approach of the dreaded summer complaint, which in combination with teething is so generally fatal.

Between 5,000 and 6,000 people, representing every walk in life, en- |joyed the first band concert of the season provided by Mayor Quigley and given at Walnut Hill park last night. A particularly attractive fea- ture of this concert was the appear- ance of the band stand. Strings of red, white and blue electric lights i were festooned from the top of the ‘stand and hung down the sides, pre- :senting a pretty aspect. The American band, under the di- rection of W. H. Bishop, rendered ex- | cellent music and the well known se- | lections, “He's a Devil in His Own Home Town” and “I'm On My Way | to Mandalay,” made a big hit with| the younger set. However, all of the other selections were well re- ceived and Mr. Swietzer's cornet solo, "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice,” was worthy of special mention. Great crowds of people thronged .around the bandstand and prome- naded along the highway, Wwhile at least 2,000 sat on the grassy slopes above the roadway. At 8:15 o’clock there were fifty-two automobiles and four carriages parked along the western highway and later more came, showing that there was a deal of in- terest manifested in this concert.

STORY OF SLAVERY IN FOX PICTURES The Kangaroo, or “The Terrors of New Orleans,” dealing’ with ‘an epi- sode in the history of the slave-hold- ing states during the years of 1834 and 1835, will be shown today at Fox’s theater as the stellar attrac- tion. The story deals with an arch conspirator who headed a gang known among themselves as the speculators. This gang recruited representatives SCENE FROM “THE KANGAROO.” from all over the southern states and included in its membership were judges, sheriffs and men in high of- ficial life. No robbery large or small was disdained, and slave running proved very lucrative. The slaves were induced to escape from their masters, with the promise to run them north and then to freedom. Once i in their power the gang would em- bark them in boats, dispose of them to some member of their unscrupu- lous band d@nd send them to a worse elavery farther south. The specula- tors were organized for a more ter- rible purpose than slave traffic, and that was when on a given day the slaves throughout the entire were to rise against their masters and the speculators, taking advantage of the whites' attention being centered on saving their lives and subjugating the slaves, would loot all plantations, stores, banks, etc., and escape with the loot to Mexico. In this five-part film play they shown in one of their nefarious erations, in a series of thrilling sit- uations and scenes teeming with ac- tion. The balance of the varied pro- are op- | gram is made up of some of the best Universal single reels, among them being “His Wife's Family,” an ex- cruciatingly funny comedy, “The Old Rag Doll,” a domestic drama, and “The Mask of Affliction,” a tense western drama in two parts, round- ing out two solid hours of excellent entertainment. For Friday “The Heart of a Police Officer,” will be the epecial attraction. south | I A Menu for Tomor;ow L " Breakfast. Berrles. " - Cereal. Sugar and Créam. Kromskies of Fish. Parker House Rolls.

GENERAL APPROVAL GIVEN KEENEY'S BILL The crook play offered for approval deville that can handle the part in which she is cast. Margaret Burke is the next one to appear on the program after The Con- fession. If any actress is capable of making an audience laugh this clever mimic has ‘them all done to a standstill. Miss Burke gives "a character impersonation. of the children of a public school much to the amusement of the audience. A singing, dancing and instrumen- tal act is introduced by thé Maxinoff Troupe of Hungarian musicians. This act is the box office attraction of the week, and exclamations of approval are being heard from all quarters. Granto and Maud always are, the same, that is to say, they never fail to entertain with their tight rope walk ing stunts. Mr. Granto is one of the best known balancers in Europe, and it was not without numerous disputes that he was persuaded to play the small towns of Keeney's New England circuit. This act excels all other tight rope walking acts that have been billed at the popular playhouse in some time. 4 Tricks on the bar are demonstrated by Bush and Engel, famed all over the United States for thejr feats of daring. Mr. Bush has some new twists which take well with the au- dience, and it would be safe to say that this pair have made many sup- porters in this city through their fine acrobatic stunts.

If 3 merchant should persist in presenting you with an article wi you wanted to buy from him, and then some time later should present with a bill charging a larger suin than you originally offered him, would be pretty indignant, wouldn't you? You say you cannot imagine a merchant doing such a thing. No, neither can I, Yet that is practically a description of the: which friends often play upon each other. The other day I heard a woman complaining bitterly because a fri of hers was not willing to take her little daughter into her home whi she was absent on a two weeks' trip. “Oh, yes, Louise sald she would do it,” she complained, “but I cou see she didn't want to, and I certainly sha’n’t force her to. I wouldn't Dorothy stay where she wasn’'t wanted for anything. But I must say never saw such ingratitude. Why, when she was married, I marked of her linen for her. I did two tablecloths and two dozen napkins, and don't know how many towels. I worked half one summer on them. there's no use expecting gratitude in this world.” Now if I had not heard the other side of the case I might have horrified by the ingratitude displayed, but, as it happened, I heard defendant’s case, and here it is. The plaintiff offered to mark the linen in question. The de 1 thanked her but said she wished she would let her pay for the work. plaintiff absolutely refused, and the defendant reluctantly accepted the fi vor. A few months later, however, the plaintiff demanded as pay the defendant should take charge of her little girl for two weeks. Now if the little girl had .been an ordinary child, the might have been wiling, but Dorothy is an extremely delicate child, subject to sudden upsets, and the resp onsibility appalled the defendant, is not used to children. And it was because she could not hide this that the plaintiff haughtily withdrew her request and began to in about the uselessness of expecting gratitude in this world. ( Now if we are cold blooded enoush to transiate the two favors cold cash, we find that the embroidery could have been hired for or seven dollars whereas board and a nurse malid’s services for the chi for two weeks would certainly have cost fifteen or eighteen dollars, Moreover, the defendant would far rather have pajd outright for work at double its value than to have accepted the responsibility of for a sickly child. Should she not have the right to choose how she should repay wi recelving the stisma of ingratitude? And now that both sides of the case have been presented I leave it you, the jury, to decide,—was the plaintiff unjust or the defendant grateful? v T C Daily Fashion Talks BY MAY:MANTON 8283 Boy's Blouse, 4 to 8 years.
