D ) Every mother justly dreads the heat ed term, especially lor children under three year« of age, and more ao for those between ttie ages of 8 months and 2 year«. The mortsiity among bottle fed inhnta ia often frightful, particularly in cities, when ae a rule over two thirds or three-fourths of them die during the first year. All disease comes from some disturb ance of the organs uf the body, resulting either in disorder«d functions ordain aged tissues. The mo l common sum mer disorders are those of the digestive system, and are usually due either to ■»polled food or to food which ia unsuit able for the infant digestion, food infect ed with gt‘rius and containing come kind of dirt. Then tuo intense heat is de pressing, and interferes wi»n the elimin ation of wastes from the body. Thia leads to ¡Ktisoning of the tissues by the products of tissue wear; consequently all the organs are more or less hindered in their work. Respiration is slow and shallow, or, if quickened, the breaths are short and shallow ; the heart’s action is feeble, and the blood is uut sent to every tissue rapidly enough and in the amount needed, so all the structures sutler. The skin becomes relaxed, and is often unab.e to meet the demands made u|»on it an a beat losing as well as an excreting organ, Al tiiBl the sw«»at- mg may be excessive if the baby is old enough to Derr pi re. The sweat glands are not active until a child is several weeks old, and during the first years of life are much more easily exhausted than in the adult. It is a well-known fact that the skin is much more active as a depurating organ when it is clean (han when it is covered with dirt; there fore, in hot weather cool and tepid baths should be given frequently. Whenever (be little one ia fretful a cool both w ill revive it as does the rain a drooping plant. A child of 3 or 4 months will usually show how much it enjoys the bath by an unwillingness to leave it Generally after such a bath if put into a light night gown, it will quickly fall asleep. Every observing person who has watched an infant on a hot, sultry day will understand just how the intense heat depresses physical vigor. Even well-fed, healthy infants in the country suffer greatly, and how much worse must be the condition of weak, sickly babies in (he tilth of crowded city tone mints. In sultry weather, if a child craves water, and is given instead an extra leeding of milk, it will suffer; for when milk is not digested, it soon spoils, and tills the stomach with all manner of poisonous substances, the result of food iermenlation and thus the stomach and alimentary canal become infected with dangerous disease germs. One form, the tyiotoxicon germ, glows especially in spoiled milk, and when the stomach of an infant once becomes infected with ibis deadly organism, it may be weeks before milk can be taken in any form without making the child violently ill. It is often hard to make mothers and nurses understand that even breast milk and that of the best quality, may be dangerous to the stomach of an infant already infected with ty rotox icon and producing microbes other disease which live «nd grow in milk, All vom- ited matter and all discharges contain Lins germ, ami will reinfect the patient, also other intents if it Is allowed to eon laminate their foot! and dunk. In I mm - pitala one nurse has be« ii known io III fret mitral childitn because sire failed Lu keep her Landa and *1 thing «han from such diBcbarges. The result wa« .oud infection from which several infants died. All the clothing soiled by such discharge«* should be al once put into some disinietling ao I Ulloa as boiling Malsoda wa’er, or a 5 per cent carbolic acid solution hot, then they must be rinsed, washed and boiled. Take spac'al pains with the hands and always wash and disinfect them carefully before pre paring either food or drink fur the baby It is well also to wear a clean apron when leeding the baby, to prevent any germs or matter getting into the milk or feeding vessels. The dieting of all cases of dysentery is an all important thing Ona hot day alien lbe llitle one feels languid and liied and there is any inrlinatl<»n to vomiting or purging, at orn e stop thy food ami increase the amount of boiled water used. Food fermentation in the stnmacU is worse than want of food and in some cases of stomach infection a meal of even breast or sterilized boiled milk is ss deadly as a dose uf arsenn . Cholera infantum is due to acute in le<-fed milk poiaonmg and every drop ol milk taken in to tbe stomach hinders nature in her ‘ff/fta to diapoae <4 ibis load ol germa, ptomain«, putrid food and poisonous eludala* It in like adding foe! to an already biasing fire, it hut continues the cotiH4«ra' ion and con- an met the infan 'a life In there canea a cold drink will often be retained when all alsr is rej-cted •• »meti rn mi hi the stage of collapse hot water is most etf^tl\e.________________ A flag for Your SchoolhouM Every school house in tbe conn y should have a flag.

After examining some 40 or more ap- I plicanta in and around Portland, the Barber’s CotnniiMion, consisting of Sam ! H. Howard, II. G. Meyer and F7T. Rogers, will have finished its labors. The Commission has "rounded up" bar hers without licen»es throughout the Willamette Valley and S »uthern Ore gon and met with some very interesting experiences. Ashland was tbe first town visited. The Commission had been determined Io revoke the licenses of three barbers there who refused io comply with the tune and hours, Upon promise of compliance with the regulations, the recalcitrants were allowed to keep their licenses. A regular circus was ha.l with a man at Medford, the next place visited. A barl»er without a license said as an ex cuse he was an apprentice. He has been working 15 years al tbe trade. His employer had left the day before on a fiisbing trip. The Commission in formed the "apprentice” to appear be fore it at 1 o’clock and uiake applica tion for a license. He showed up but claimed he did not have the necee- sary |5. An adjournment was taken to give him a chance to "dig up.” Hti appear* i ed again and wanted to pay part of the amount and send the balance to Port land. Hu was told to go and get tbe balance. lie then locked the door of his shop and brought Ute town marshal with him thinking that the Commission would not proceed against him.
