Heloise Remember, add the date to articles Several years back, my daughter’s softball team won their championship game. There was an article in the newspaper which was all about the team’s success. My daughter clipped the article along with several others over that year. She forgot one important thing, to date the articles, and she doesn’t remember when the events were held.

Now, whenever we clip an article, we also make sure to clip the dateline of the newspaper which includes the name of the paper, page number and the date. We have found that things are much more organized with just this small piece of information taped to the article. Ranny Bayer * * * Yes, it’s very important to always include the date and the newspaper name if possible. It’s so frustrating to see photographs or articles and try to guess when they were taken or printed. Your heirs will thank you! Heloise PAINT ON BRICKS Dear Heloise: I found a great way to remove paint spatters from brick. I rubbed another brick back and forth over the brick with the paint on it. Ben K. TRAVELING WITH BABY Dear Heloise: Our first child seemed to spit up often and everywhere I took her one of us always seemed to have sour milk spots on our clothing. Since we now have a second baby, I always carry a small bottle of water to which I add a little baking soda. If the baby spits up, a cloth moistened with the baking soda solution and rubbed on the spot removes the unpleasant odor from my clothes and hers. Vera Preston * * * You also can pour a little of this baking soda mixture into baby’s empty bottles to keep them smelling fresh until they can be washed.

Children of smokers suffer more illnesses, report says

WASHINGTON (AP) Children of smokers suffer bronchitis, pneumonia and other lower respiratory tract illnesses up to twice as often during their first year than children whose parents don’t smoke, says a report released today. In addition, the National Research Council report on so-called passive smoke said exposure to tobacco smoke could increase the risk of lung cancer in nonsmokers by as much as 34 percent for spouses of smokers. The report is the latest salvo in an increasingly hostile battleground where nonsmokers claim that those who light up are polluting their air and harming their health while smokers defend their right to enjoy

cigarettes and cigars. A third of American adults smoke, a statistic that has been on the decline since the mid-19605. However, the number of heavy smokers is increasing, so “the nonsmoker who has close contact with a smoker may be exposed to greater amounts of smoke in 1985 than 1955,” the council said. The Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Health and Human Services asked the council, a branch of the govern-ment-funded National Academy of Sciences, to review research data on environmental tobacco smoke. Most of the studies of chronic health effects surveyed people who

had long-term exposure to smoke from household members, such as parents or spouses. The council’s Committee on Passive Smoking cautioned that most studies do not directly address health effects in people occasionally exposed to smoke. After a year-long review, the council concluded that “bronchitis, pneumonia, and other lower respiratory tract illnesses occur up to twice as often during the first year of life in children who have one or more parents who smoke than in children of nonsmokers.” Wheezing, coughing and sputum production also increased in children of smokers.
