Four Brake* And Balloon Tires On
Latest Carriages For The
Infant.
Chicago.— Modern babies have
kept pace with the times in get*itig
their share of the luxuries and com
forts that invention and progress
has brought to everyone in the
world.
None of the Wardships of the In
fants of pioneer days are expe-i
enced by the baby of 1929 who rides
around in a carriage with four
wheel brakes and balloon tires.
The papoose would look at the
carriage of today and wonder /hat
this strange and fascinating vehicle
was all about for in the days when
Indians roved the plains the best the
little redskin ever had was a r'de
on mother's back.
The evolution of the baby carriage
is presented in an interesting ex
hibit at the American Furniture
Mart in Chicago. The progression in
stages dating back to the sixth cen
tury. B. C, from the crudest' to the
1930 models are illustrated and dis
played.
Research men have found evi
dences that some mode of peram
bulator was used for babies as far
back as the day of Hermes, mes
senger of the gods. A painting or.
an Etruscan vase in the Louvre
shows Hermes upon his return home
after stealing the oxen of Apollo,
baby Hermes is shown lying on a
little table with miniature wheels.
'Three people stand around him, two
of them women and one a man who
apparently had come to claim the
stolen oxen.
Ride In Shawls.
Modes oT moving babies about
varied but little years ago in various
countries. In Egypt when e child
was too young to walk, he was taken
out in shawls worn in front, in cack
or at the side by their mothers or
nurses—a custom still retained by
the -Arabs.
Ethopian babies rode in a basket
fastened to their mother’s back by
a band which passed over her fore
head; Japanese infants looked
through their dreamy eyes at the
world from the back of an older
brother or sister. Each child car
ried the next younger baby who
learned to hold on tight until he
was able to walk.
Peru babies were strapped in
cradles like those of Indian papoos
es; Eskimos placed their young in
mother’s high, wide boots; Italian
women carried the children in wick
er baskets balanced on their heads;
mountain mothers of Switzerland
placed tHeir babies in cribs which
were carried on top of the head
much after the fashion of women in
South Africa tribes.
A considerate father was the first
baby carriage manufacturer. Charles
Burton, an English lithographic ar
tist, came to America in 1848. When
his first son was bom. Burton built j
a light conveyance on small wooden J
wheels.
When he appeared oil the streets!
in New York city, the curiosity of
the crowds was-so great that ne real,
ized he had a valuable invention. He
returned to England where the in
terest was as great as in America.
Duke First Customer.
The Duke of Leinster was his first
customer and after other members
of the royal family purchased car
riages, the fad spread throughout
England. Later the news of the baby
carriage reached outside the coun
try. The Psha of Egypt sent to Eng
land for several carriages and from
that time on the business has grown
throughout the world and numer
ous manufacturers followed Bur-ton's
lead.
During the last two generations
the American baby Iras been blessed
w-ith comfortable wicker-woveh car
riages- having resilient springs, soft
and soothing upholstering and all
the other things which would arid
to “his majesty’s” comfort and
health.
Within the last two years there
has been a popular movement, espe
cially in the large eastern cities to
ward adaptations of the English per
ambulator. But it hp only been in
recent days that little snookums hr;
demoded four-wheel brakes and
balloon tires as part of his oi her
necessary carriage equipment.
That is why when the pride ?f the
household calls for his carriage, he
falls off quickly to sleep—he just
can’t resist it. ,
Couldn't Fool Them.
The Inspector of schools w"is n'aid
ing his rounds. At pne school lie
told the pupils he was going to give
them an intelligence test.
“Now close your eyes!" he in
structed. Then he made a noise li'e
the twittering of birds.
“Open your eyes!” he said.
“Tell me -what was I doing?”
“Kissing teacher!” came the tri
umphant chorus.
