Bibs are nice little things for a baby and they may be the ordinary one3 r the feeding variety, whichever the maker desires. "Feeding" bibs measure 10 by 16 inches, with a tiny curved piece cut from the top to fit around the neck. On the edges of this the tape is fas tened. These are usually of hucka back toweling or linen, and may be embroidered with old fashioned cross stitch done with darning cotton, or else with regular D. M.

It Is discouraging to the mother to find the eiderdown coverlets becoming soiled where the- children' rub their hands over them.. This unslghtlinss can be avoided by making a tiny sham of swlss or other similar material and basting it across the top of the coverlet, just where -the hands rub back and forth. It can be pinned into place 'at the corners with tiny baby pins or caught with a few stitches. The. shams if. edged with narrow lace, add areally attractive touch to the coverlet, and as they can be quickly removed and easily launder ed, the little extra work entailed more than pays. -" BAD FOR BABY'S EYES. It is jus.t as well to put out the light as soon as the baby is asleep. And light is bad for the eyes when closed, especially the very tender ones of a young baby. BABIES HURT BY JIGGMNG. Doesn't annoy you," asked one of Vhe friends who were sipping their af tern i cup of tea and having, a quiet chat. mea$ while, !'to se$ a baby .jig gled? I can call it nothing else, for I know of no word that better de scribes the constant motion up and down" or 'from 'srde to side, to which the mites of humanity are so often subjected. "What there is in people which Im pels them to dance a .baby up and down the "very moment they get one in their arms is something I have never, been able to answer satisfacto rily. I have often thought I w6uld like to have some giant come along and pick "Ihem up and jounce thern up and 'down. "I wonder how they- would like t? I wonder how their internal workings would feel after such an ordeal? Not very well, I am sure. "In Xhe case of babies, it may, ad mit, quiet them for the time being, but think of the after affect! It is all wrong and I verily believe that to just'such excitement is due many of the nervous disorders of the children to-day. "Let the little ones be. They will find quite enough to interest them ?n what they see about them, if only they are given a chance to develop their powers of observation normally." CHILDREN'S FEELINGS NOT CONSB3ERED. Older people think altogether too little about the feelings of children. They put them off. as . lightly as though they had no reasoning powers, bolstering themselves up with the re flection, "Oh, they will forget all about It in a little " while." But they, do not forget so easily as you imagine ,and many a childish heart is sore over 'what it instinctive ly knows to be Inconsistent and un reasonableness on the part of its el ders. One little chap was constantly be ing deceived as to his bed hour, which' was 7:30 o'clock. He could not tell the time and his mother or nurse would tell him it was bedtime, when In reality It was only 7 o'clock. He would look puzzled and only half convinced, as his reason told him that it could not be that late; but he had no choice but to obey. It would have been far wiser to have set 7 o'clock as his bed time and to have stuck to it. j YOUTH GOES TO JAIL TO IMPROVE MIND New York Lad Fixes Own Sentence on Black well's Island in Unique Probation. , - "New York, Jan. 25. There's a dif ference' in views of New.. York and Philadelphia police magistrates. Yesterday., a Philadelphia magis trate surrendered a 19-year-old of fender to the mercy-or horror of his mother's slipper, but the New York official took another tack, as is testi fied to by the following: "Your mother charges you with being a bad boy. - How old are you?" asked Magistrate Furlongln the Gales avenue court, Brooklyn. "Twenty-one years," replied Fred erick Harding, of 269 1-2 Marion street. "Then you are not a bad boy, but may be a bad man. What is the trou ble?" Wants to Shake Gang. "Hanging out -with a bad gang." "Can't you shake the gang?" "No." - "If you really' want help you mayt bridge raised, have it. What can I do for you?" "Send me to the workhouse." " "You'll find a new gang there just as bad as your old gang." "No new gang will ever get me If I get away from the old gang." "What will you do when you come out?" "Get a Job and try to be a man." Fixes Own Sentence. "GIx your ownsentenee. How long do ydu want?' "Six months please." "Well, I'll give you six months. If you use your time on Blackwell's Is land to improve your mind and cor rect your hamits you will find It as good a school as there is. Young men find. evil companions In the best of colleges, so let no one convince yo uthat you can't reform on Black well's Island." Harding thanked the magistrate and was taken away to commence his college course. RESISTING TUBERCLE BACILLI. Dr. W. T. Woodley Points Out the ' 'Harm of Tobacco, and How It Pre pares the Way, by -Weakening the System, For Tuberculosis Alcohol Also Paves Way For Contraction of the Dread Disease. To the Editor of The Chronicle: ' I regret very much that I was unable to attend the tuberculosis convention re cently held in this city. I heartily com. mend t)r. Faison's paper, especially that part of it excluding tuberculous teachers and pupils from the public schools. lit addition I would suggest that the schools teach the deleterious effects of those things whiph lessen the power of resist ance necessary to prevent the invasion of the tubercle bacilli.

The alkaloid of tobacco, nicotine, produces in tense nervousness, causing a craving for stimulants, and . alcohol is " taken until chronic alcoholism is produced. Intensify ing the 'nervousness, then morphine is Resorted to, until opium pains, morphine cramp, is produced, and morphine loses Its effect although taken In increased doses, and cocaine is taken as a last re sort, and then the wreck of the North American, wrecked with strong drink and narcotics, superinduced by nicotine, the alkaloid of a plant indigenous to his own continent. Let ua rescue him by driving the poisons and bacteria from the human citadel, and with port cullls down, draw- guns unlimbered, and ramparts manned with pure blood and strong nerves, prevent the contamination and deterioation of the youth of our land, and bid eternal defiance to- nicotine and alcohol, - the forerunners and way pavers of the tubercle bacilli. WM. T. WOODLEY, M. P. Charlotte, January 25th, 1909. A Horrible Hold-Up. "About ten years ago my brother was "held up" in his work, health and happiness by what was believed to be hopeless Consumption," writes W. R. Lipscomb, of Washington, N. C. "He took all kinds of remedies and treatment from several doctors, but found no help till he used Dr. King's New Discovery and was whol ly cured by six bottles. He Is a well man to-day."

CLEANING BABY'S RUG. Baby's fur rug may be cleaned at home by giving it a thorough bath In dry corn meal. Rub the meal in as though it wore soap, shake it out, and then rub In more meal, letting it remain in the rug for a day or two. Then shake out and the appearance of the rug will be much improved. . ' - NEW BABY BONNETS. Some of the new laby bonnets made of linen are buttonholed around the edge and have an opening, but tonholed, for slipping the bonnet ties through. The ties are further held in plaoe by a little gold pin. NO KISSES FOR LITTLE BABIES. If there is one edict that common sense lays down for young mothers It is not to allow baby to be kissed on the lips, for it is almost impossible to reckon the amount, or rather the chance of contagion that may be car ried In this fashion. For shouMf there be the slightest infection in fa person's system it will be upon the lips, and if they are brought into contact with those of an Infant serious Illness may be trans mitted to the child.

Now. you see men smoking when walking or riding with ladles, even blow ing tobacco smoke in their faces. " I have iad personal experience with nicotine poisoning, suffered with insom nia, vertigo and nervous heart, could not lie on my Jeft side for years, and was almost at death's door when I stopped Usfng tobacco seventeen years ago the 19th of this month. 'I gained 25 pounds in weight in one year, and Since then I have not realized that I had a heart. InHhis day men cannot assemble, even at the banquet board, without filling the air with the foul odor of tobacco smoke. It would not seem strange then, if we were classed as a nation of. tobacco fiends, slaves to the tobaceo habit, and drinkers of strong drink. The question has been asked, "what would Jesus do?" Arid I reverently ask, how would it look for our blessed Lord, the divjne healer, to appear in public with a cigarette or cigar in His mouth, or to visit a refined, sick lady with His breath and clothes reeking with the odor of tobacco, and the lapels of coat and shirt bosom bespattered with ambeer, and ambeer dripping from the corners of His mouth? Are not many of our undivine healers doing this? ' Good Lord, deliver us! '- In 1886 I made an effort to introduce tobacco growing in Chowan county, "N. C.; for which I hope God will forgive me. I, planted twenty-seven acres of land in tobacco, and cured It in one barn on wired sticks with eight cords of wood, and raised a crop which took a tobacco expert from. Stokes- county, N. C, six months to grade. Sold the crop at farr prices, even selling the sweepings of the floor for six cents a pound for smoking tobacco, and made nothing on the ven ture. The crop takes a whole year and a part of the next to get clear of It. If I could make nothing then with farm labor costing half of what it does now, how can it be a Drontable crop now? I have fished seine in northeastern North Caro lina when it took from fifty to one hun dred hands to work the seine and take of the fish. I have raiseorTruck for the Northern markets, employing over one hundred women and children daily -to pick the garden pea crop, and I have raised stock, grain and hay in the mountains of Virginia with fair success; but I have never engaged in' any pursuit in which there was less profit than the raising of tobacco. But even "if tobacco raising was profitable, if its use lowers vitality and lessens the power of resistance, thereby facilitating the spread of tuberculosis, cut It out. Obey the command, Matthew o. Ana ii iu ngm eye uiienu- urcc, pluck it out., etc."' "And if thy right hand offend thee cut it off." Dr. Kesler's paper was a gem and ex-. ceedingly helpful, but in addition, I would suggest, InVtead of sweeping the dust and dirt from the churches and other places of public assembly, to be blown back through the doors and windows, Iff THE INDUCEMENTS WE OFFER FOR BUYING 4 SHIRTS here are many.
