Hulling Milk 1 . Not Injure Itn Value.
A very Important question, from tho
point of view of thu nourishment of new
born children, is whether boiled milk re
tains a suiilclently nutritive value. For
merly It was universally thought that
milk ought to bo used in a statu as nearly
like as possible to that In which it is when
issuing from tho breast, and uncooked
milk was thu only kind employed for feed
ing infants. Nmvailajs, m.wuter, since it
has been clearly demonstrated that milk
may bu au agent for the transmission of
various diseases, Ruch as eruptive fevers,
typhoid fever and especially consumption,
most authors and physicians agree in
recommending that tolled milk only should
bo given to infanta.

Glycerin is used Internally In somo dis
eases, notably in consumption, as a substi
tute for codllveroll. Notwithstanding Its
undoubted nutrient property-, It Is not
equal to tho latter In tho treatment of
phthisis, owing to thu nbst-ncuof certain
chemical elements upon which tho efllcacy
of codllver oil in a great measure depends.
At the same time tho valtiu of glycerin
administered to consumptive patients
should not to lost sight of; occasionally,
us It is much more easily tolerated by thu
stomach, it may bo alternated with oil, or
tho two may bu given together. I lint u

Twit Kinds or Women.
When onu says "she Is a woman of the
world," thu phrasu does not Imply in the
least that she Is a worldly woman. Such
a ono enjoys only those delights that un
essentially of the earth earthy. Pleasure
is her aim and fashion her god, hut a
"woman of thu world" Is au entirely dif
ferent typo altogether. Shu is, to give a
concise tieiiuitloii, onu who possesses a rare
knowledge of thu world, gained by a wide
and varied personal experience A woman
of thu world Is wise and can sit in Judg
ment on men and affairs, because she
knows whereof she speaks, while u worldly
woman in many cases hasn't a single i,en

of the world Is to be trusted, Shu Is, as u
rule, cool and calculating, with a dUcrlml
nation worthy of it diplomat. Sho neu-r

Shu does moiu thinking than talking,
but what she says always means some
thing. Shu rut ely condemns, for from her
vast experience she knows that there is
ilotlieyget sulllclent nourishment? This
question lias toeii examined, with tho aid
of all the documents which could to col

researches, made from tlio various points

conclusion that boiling does not at all di
minish tlio digestibility of milk, and con
sequently does not diminish its nutritive

Ways of I-riitoutlug u Watch.
If you are determine;! to wear your
watch lika thu rest of womankind, thrust
it Into j-our tollcu; it is n good idea to
havo sewed securely to the lining of each
waist one of thu patent fastening hooks
which havu to bu pressed lu order to pass
over anything. Clasp thU over tlio big
link at the end of your chain, nnd you nre
comparatively safe. A strong handed
inter, may break tho chain, but cannot
capture thu watch. If this Is Impossible,
it is at any rate always easy to fasten a
fancy pin through the end of thu chain,
which will keep it from slipping away and
render it a little less easy to grab.
Another excellent plan would to to have
a small pocket sewed to the lining of each
bodice at the place where It Is natural to
slip the watch. This pocket could open
toward the front, and when the watch was
thrust in could fasten by means of onu of
thu patent loops to an eyelet crocheted on
the lining of thu bodice
With the watch securely tucked In such
a receptacle, even with thu chain dangling
daintily down the front of tho gown, a
woman might safely venture Into a crowd
and not bo obliged to keep one hand con- '
tluually over her breast to protect her I

something and did not know why. Tho
seat of her trouble was her stomach, and
tho secret of that difficulty was inherited
from both parents. Thu father Is an Invet

In general terms that sho was aggravating

"It Isn't good for you, my dear. I would

At housu No. 8 I found a toy of about
eight, his breeches rolled up as high as
possible and his feet bare. Hewasiisturdy
fellow, full of vitality and not very fond
of book study. Hu knew mu well and
trotted mu off at once down the mir.i....
way to show mu something hu had found
out atout insects, and more about dowers.
Wu had a splendid tlmo for half nn hour
before his mother discovered us, nnd then
llko a sensible woman shu joined us lu our
study of things. "The toy doesn't like
books very well," she said, "but ha likes
things, and that, I think, will hnvtt to do."
But the time came for suveral duties au I
the toy was flrmlyordered to go. He went
without a complaint and with prompti

him to leavu us, yet hu was well trained.
Invited to dine at this house I did so,
