A decade ago Mr. Howells wrote f charming book called “A Little Girl Among the Old Masters”, 1 little irl Miss Mikired, and book was illustrated by sketches she made of the famous pictures her father took her to see in the old world's galleries and When the artist was busy with her pencil her father Io | Wis the churches tiny MISS MILDEED HOWELLS, ind, ight. works of art ifidish zea $ of them bad no idea of using in fact, book was Miss Mildred she saw and in her deavored to make copie had quaint opinions of cerning then er ments for tures far as to or own M aq because there were “so kinds of Mado now fi young voted to her ber of very slender, sph terested in art little love able sense of ty. t the an afterth ’ loved the [| } en- She her own con bright com- fen mm one f the pleasing } 80 of the 1} OOK she even went ginate a Madonna her ' the orphans.” many ther Mildred is , | de “the Miss When Baby Cries, Most voung mothers, says a special ist, need to! thirst than because LI ry hey are — neh thirst virtual [ their likelihood. to Overs in rank r order come hun rst is next and ger, ing perhaps the need of me When baby Is teething and have marked symptoms When a baby has a weil developed case it devolves upon almost everybody in the house to be up and doing.
