Never use pacifiers. They are perm carriers and cause adenoids and protruding jaws. Never walk. trot, toss or coddle the baby. Never let any one kiss the baby, for every adult mouth carries microbes and some are likely to be disease producing. Bathe the baby daily and keep him I as cool as possible. Never wake the baby to show him 1 off. | Never give a baby under one year of age anything more than milk and cool boiled water. That baby is unfortunate who is I not raised on breast milk. Eighty-! five per cent of our dead babies were bottle fed. If the baby is bottle fed take the greatest care to properly modify and pasteurize the milk. Also take the greatest care to see that the bottles anti nipples are sterilized. The mother who tests the milk by taking the nipple into her mouth is a nasty mother. Test the temperature by dropping a few drops on the wrist. Give the baby fresh air. fresh air, and more fresh air. Never cover its face with anything, anywhere, anytime. Don't fail to see that baby’s milk is from healthy cows and collected and kept in a clean way. Don't keep the milk in an ice box’ or refrigerator where other food is kept, unless bottled. Don't accept milk with even a speck of dirt in it. Don’t strain dead or drowning flies from milk and then teed to the baby. Don't fail to set baby’s milk in a cool, clean place, as soon as delivered. Dou't forget, to scald the bottles or jars in which you keep baby's milk

i and let them cool before use. Don’t put off telling the doctor if the baby’s food does not agree with it. Dont use flat feeding botles. Use round ones, graduated and with wide mouths. Don't fail to use straight nipples, which can he turned inside out for thorough cleaning. Don't fail immediately after each feeding to wash bottle and nipple in soapsuds, lastly rinsing in cold water.

LAMB Proprietor Lamb Hotel, Antwerp, Ohio. I suffered the toriues from tuberculosis of the bowels eleven years with shattered nerves and no health. Three bottles of San Yak cured mo two years ago, and you are free to use this letter for the benefit it may be to others. DORY KING, of North Manchester, Ind.
