Set your undis- turbed glasses of jelly in it, not close enough to touch. put in a hot oven and let them bake until sufficiently jellied. This usually takes three quarters of an hour. Try it.

Wise writers—who prob- ably board a: some expensive hotel, or live at home where they ve few problems and no expense, advise us that to overcome present difficulties man must work more and produce more, woman - must save more and utilize more.

All ajes were represented, from the babe in arms’to our aged Sister, the widow of Col. Kingsley, who has pass- ed her 95 bfrthday. We had the pleas ure of meeting her-at the same place last year, and she added so much to the inte-est of the occasion by her genial and ‘cheerfuf interést manifested in all that transpired that we hoped to meet” her again this vear: but hardly had expested to do so.

If you train your bables irightly from the baby's birth by the time the Arst tooth makes its appear- ance the baby will be well establshed in habits of regularity. This has much to do with its nervous system, and if | that 1s not upset, teething will not be 80 hard for the baby, as its digestive organs will be well taken care of. A baby (newly born) should sieep 19 hours out of the 24, Of course, as the | baby gets a littie older it will net re- |auire so much sleep. Hegularity In | sleeping is of ax much importance as [cfularity In cailng. Never reck your baby to mleep: begin from the firat and | have a reguiar time to put it to bed, and see that It goes at that time. Plac Je, baby in a separate bed from th 1atther, as It lessens the danger of too freqgnt nureing. When tho baby is sleeping with its mother there is the temptation to nurse the baby Bvery time it criés during the night. 1 think the first two wesks, while there is a nurse to attend the mother, it 1s advisable for the baby to sieep in a separate room. a® the mother is more or less troubled about baby, and she does not get teh uninterrupted rest she requires. It is desirable the baby ehould sleep out of doors as much as possible. When baby has his nap never run and plick him up, but let him le a short time. I should say from abeut 11.45 to 12.45 Is a nice time for baby's hap. Then it s rested for the afternoon. It should have its supper and have lts bedtime at 6 o'clock. When the baby is older you can arrange the bedtime at 7.30 and give the baby his supper at’6.30. Always have an hour Intervene be- tween supper and bedtime. As soon as the child Is thoroushly awake In the morning you should take it up amd wash and dress it. In this way the young child will cultivate the habit of “early rising. .which is con- ducive to both bodfly and mental welfare. 1 don’t mean to sall him. as a sudden awakening excltes the nerves and quickens the action of the Reart The child will :awaken as soon as it | has bhad enough sleep: As soon as a tooth' appears the mouth should be washed twice a_day.
