Not necessarily, but if a baby does rot grow he is not normal. At a month, the average baby measures about twenty and one-half inches; at three months, twenty-two inches; at six months, twenty-four inches; at one year, twenty-seven inches. This is the average height for the baby who starts life weighing seven pounds. height 5.—My baby’s head is rather large. ‘Will he have trouble in teething? A large head sometimes indicates certain conditions which become more active or pronounced under teething or any other special strain. You should consult your physician as to | your child’s condition and develop- ment. The head of a child six months | old, weighing about seventeen or eigh- teen pounds, and measuring twenty- | six or twenty-seven inches in height, should = measure in circumference seventeen and one-half. The chest should be the same size and the ab- domen just a trifle smaller. At nine months the weight should be about twenty pounds, the height about twenty-eight and the head measure- ment about eighteen. The trouble may lie in the shape, not in the size of the head, and for that reason, the | beby should be looked over by a { 5.—Should a baby sleep on its right | or its left side? | Alternate the position.

At three months he notices his hands and re- sponds to slight noises, or gentle pats. At four months, he tries to hold up | his head; at six hé can sit up with a pillow against his back, and cries| when taken from his mother and | nurge. At nine months he can sit| alone on the floor, and usually tries tu creep and play. | f.—When should baby walk? The age varies with the family traits and health of the baby.

For if your merchant has a right to ask that you shall tell him, instead of others, when you are dissatisfied, your friends certainly have a far greater right. “‘Well, I've spent seventy-five cents today that I'll probably never get anything out of,” I heard a woman say the other day. “How 807" someone asked, “I did an errand for Grace (naming a woman Whose friend she is sup- posed to be) and I suppose she’ll forget to pay me. She usually does. She's terribly careless about little things like that, you know." “Why don’t you remind her if she forgets?” “Oh, 1 wouldn't do that,” with an expression of “That would be so mean and little.” As if it were half so mean as to give the woman a reputation for carélessness in money affairs! As if it were even half so mean and unkind to tell a friend of a fault or a mistake or an injustice as to tell someone else about it behind her back! Another woman who prides herself on her shares a certain expense with a friend, each paying according to the accommodation she receives. Conditions have changed since the propor- tion was agreed upon and this woman feels that she is paying more than her share. Of course she should go straight to the other party and say g0.

New York, July 28.—Casting aside all pretence of insanity, hans Schmidt, the priest who cut up the body of Anna Aumuller several months ago and threw portions into the Hudson, formally appliea for a new trial yesterday. Through his lawyer, Alphonse G. Koelble, the condemned man, who is confined in the death house at Sing Sing, served notice on District Attor- ney Whitman of a motion for a re- trial. In an atfidavit Koelble sets of murder in the first degree almost wholly on his (Schmidt's) own testi- mony. The affidavit also asserts that the Aumuller girl was not murdered but died as the result of an illegal operation performed by a surgeon. It is claimed that Schmidt cut up the body in a vain effort to, prevent a scandal and to protect the physician forth that his client was found guilty | without telling what his true reason desired even than physical bravery. “Faithful are the wounds of a fri the back. was, It takes more courage to find fa ult with a ffiend to his face than be- hind his back, but it is the high kind of moral courage that is more to be end,” but nét when they are stabs in 7&wcwmfi_ Daily Fashion Talks BY MAY{MANTON EMBROIDERY HINTS BY MAY MANTON Pattern of this Design sent { to Any Address for 10 cents. 3531 Design for Embroiderigg an Infant’s | Shoe.

Stock Yards Causes $250,000 Damages, Louisville, Ky., July 28.—Fire which started in the sheep pens of the Bourbon Stock Yards here last night, destroyed a third of that plant, forty Louisville and Nashville railroad cars, some of which were loaded with merchandise, cremated a thousand sheep, damaged more than ascore of cottages that lined streets bordering the stock yards. Damage to the stock yards is estimated at about $175,000 and the total damage at ap- proximately $250,000. The fire-fighting apparatus of the city was called out to extinguish the flames, which threatened to destroy the entire yards and buildings near- by. The blaze was gotten under con- trol after several hours of hard work by the fire department. The origin of the fire has not been ascertained. CONCENTRATION OF FLEET.

Another roller skating act is on the bill again this week. Mr. Collins, nicknamed “Revolving Colling” by the beoking manager, has a feature for his act that is the most novel roller skate movement that has ever been shown to the public, Mr. Collins makes two hundred revolutions a minute in a squatting position, using only his hands for a motive power.

She has at her command the famous punches of most of the champlon men boxers since the time of Tom Sharkey, and uses them to ad- vantage in a little dispute with Mr. Finn. The boxing element of the town should not lose this opportunity to drop in and get a few pointers on how to handle their fists. Largest Single Consignment Made From America Carried Aboard Liner. Ever New York, July 28.—The latest gold movement to Europe which began on last Friday, when $2,000,000 was sent to Paris, was further increased to- day by a shipment of $10,600,000 aboard the liner Kronprinzessin Ce- cilia. This is said to be the largest single gold shipment ever magde from America to Europe. Of today’s shipment $6,000,000 is consigned to London bankers and $4,- 600,000 to Paris. In additlon to this sum of $2,- 750,000 in gold bars has been en- gaged for shipment to Paris by the Carmania, which is due to sail to- morrow. Bankers laid the new demand for gold for export almost entirely to the war scare in Europe, although they ad- mitted that the fortnightly settlement on the London Stock Exchange which began yesterday might have had some- thing to do with it. Other important engagements will be made today, it was said, making probably | the amount to go by the Carmania would be postponed until early nextjat least $8,000.000 and the total of yedr, owing to the delay in taking tes-' the movement.since Friday of more timony in the United States. than $20,000,000.

Davis in the crimi- nal branch of the supreme court on Oct. 5. At Schmidt's two trials an insanity defense was offered. The jury in the first trial failed to reach a verdict, but the second trial resulted in Schmidt's conviction. He was sentenced to the electric chair. QUICK WITTED BOY AVERTS BAD PANIC Children Frightened By Small Blaze at Children's Home.—Early Evening Blaze. Owing to the cool headedness of one of the boy inmates of the Chil- dren’s Home what might have been a dangerous panic was narrowly averted late last night. Suddenly the sleeping children were awakened by the cry of “Fire” and then the crackling of the flames could be heard. Panic stricken the children began to shout and cry and run hither and thither until one little fellow quieted his friends by yelling that it was only a little blaze and then proceeded to take an axe and chop away the burn- ing woodwork. The fire was around some pipes beneath a bath tub, A still alarm was sent in but by the time the firemen arrived the flames had been extinguished. The fire department responded to another call earlier in the evening when an alarm was sounded from box 37. The fire was in a house at No. 58 Beaver street, owned by J. Glawecki, of Hartford. The fire is supposed to have been caused by some one whe was smoking in bed. Damages will be covered by $100.
