Baves the Clothes and Does Away With Much Laborious Work In the Laundry. * - Creeping aprons save the baby's clothes.

Their food should contain a larger proportion of fat than is common—cream, butter, milk, fresh eggs, -etc. Families who live ,in large ettlea find it difficult to keep their children contented in their own yard; they seem to want to go into the other boy's or girl’s yard to play.
