SAVE THE BABIES (■Continued from page one.) lew minutes belore purtmg trean iooa into it. Never let the baby nurse from the remains of a bottle which ho lias not finished. Tuko it away from the crib, pour out the milk and cleanse at once. Stale milk curds sticking to the inside of a bottle after a few hours become poisonous and may contami nate fresh milk coming in contact with them. It is better to have as many bottles ns the number of the baby's daily feedings, so that all the bottles can be boiled together before the food is prepared in the morning. Nipples. The simpler the nipplf- the safer for the baby. Do not use com plicated nipples, and under no cir cumstances buy a bcttle with a long rubber tube attached to the nipple. It cannot be kept dean and will certainly cause bowel trouble. After the bottle Is finished the nipple should be re moved at once, tinned inside out ovtr the finger and scrubbed with cold wa ter and a brush kept only for this purpose. After use, always boil the brush. The cleansed nipple should be kept in fresh borax water (one teaapoonful of borax to a pint of water) in a cov ered glass. Rinse the nipple in boiling water before usin.i- 1 it. Do not put the nipple into your own mouth to find out whether the milk is warmed enough. Let a few drops ol of the milk fall 011 your wrist; if it feels too hot for your wrist it is too warm for the baby's mouth. No general instructions can he given ..bout the preparation of a milk mix ture for your baby. Kach baby needs a combination suited to its digestion The mixture upon which some other baby is thriving may be too strong or too weal; for your baby. Let the doctor tell you how to mix the tood. If it is necessary to use cream in the mixture do not buy cream—St is likely to be stale —but get it by pouring off half a pint from the top of a quart bottle of milk, after cleansing the lip of the bottle. During the summer thr- baby's food should be brought to -i scald after it is prepared it should then be poured into the clear, bottle corked with baked clean cotton wool and kept next the ice until needed. Do not heat i bottle when you goto bed and keep it in bed until nursing time, because you do not want togo to the ice box for it and heat it when the baby needs It. This Is a certain way to make the baby sick Dowel movements A bottle fed babj should have at least one and not more than two 01 three bowel move ments H day If the milk is clean to start with and has been kept cold, and all the feeding utensils clean as you have Just been told, the baby's movements should be yellow in color, and not too nard to be passed easily. If the movements become greenish in color, but not mofe trequent than two or three times b day. give one or two teaspoonfuls of castor oil. If the color does not improve alter the oil has worked ofT, consult your doctor. At this time he will be able to prevent the serious bowel trouble with which the baby is threatened If the move ments remain green in color and in crease in number to live or six or more In the twenty-tour hours your baby Is beginning to have bowel trou ble, or summer diarrhoea Stop milk at once, give pure boiled water in stead and call the doctor It maj not be 100 late. D<_ not begin milk feeding again until the doctor orders It You will not starve your baby by stopping the mills; every drop of milk thai into Its stomae after this warning simply adds to he poison already there. You will * use serious or fatal illness by keeping up milk food after the bowels become loose and the movements green in color. Vomiting. A bottle fed baby should not vomit if its food is pure and prop eil.v adjusted to Its needs. If vomit ings occur it is usually a sign of ap proaching illness, either of one of the serious diseases of childhood, or mo;e commonly in hot weather, of summer diarrhoea. Vomiting duo to this cause may be the first sign of trouble and the bowels may not become loose un til several days later. If vomiting is repeated, stop milk feeding, give boil ed water, cool or of the temperature at which the milk Is given, and con sult your doctor at once. Clothing. Do not put too much clothing on the baby In summer. Dur ing the hottest weather remove most of the clothes; a thin loose shirt and a diaper are sufficient during the day and on very hot nights. Never use clothing made with tight waistbands Petticoats and skirts should be supported by straps over the shoulders. Bathing. Bathe the baby every day. In hot weather a quick sponging all over later in the day will give com fort and make him sleep hotter. Wash the baby each time the diaper is changed and dry the parts thoroughly before using powder. Wash all soiled diapers and boll them. Never use a dried wet diaper without first wash ing it. Fresh air. Fresh nlr Is as Important for the baby's health art fresh food. During the summer k«rep the baby out of doors as much as possible. Kee the baby out of the kitchen—he mi., get a "sunstroke" from too much heat indoors Eruptions of the skin. If the baby has an eruption or breaking out of the skin, consult a doctor. Do not think that every rash 16 prickly heat; It may be some serious disease like scar let fever, measles, smallpox or chick en pox. Of Interest to Auditors. The Legislature of 1909 passed an act relatiug to the official duties of boards of township ami borough auditors and among them are the unequivocal statements that upon the completion of their work of auditing tlie accounts a printed copy must be posted in at least live public places within the district covered by the report and that a certified copy must be filed in the office of the Prothonotary. For failure to comply ast provision of the act a line of one hundred dollars is imposed. This relates not only to the county auditors but all the borough and township auditors in Sullivan county as well as through out the state. Davidson Township Audit.

It does not take people very long to forget things, and if a store were closed four months or the advertising stopped four months, a great many people would have forgotten that the business was in existence. The other view of advertising is that it ought to be pushed during the busy time when people are ready to buy.
