cloth long enough to reach well into
the fluid in the bottle and draw it
up to the blotting paper cover.

Baby'a Tetter From Diet.
Mrs. A. R. writet: "I have a 6-
months-old baby with eczema. Has
had it for four months. Is a breast
fed baby.
' Do you think my milk caused the
eczema? '
REPLY.
Eczema or tetter in nursing babies
usually results from the diet. The
food may be at fault in any one of
several ways. It may be too
abundant; it may contain too much
tat or too much sugar.
In recent years it has been Droved
that in some cases it is due to some
food eaten by the mother and secret
ed in the milk. This ingredient of the
mothers milk may be something
which was wholesome for her and
wholesome for other babies.
It harms the baby because of his
pecularities.
To cure the condition, the baby's
food must be changed in some par
ticular. It may be by skimming the
milk, or lessening its sugar or its
protein, or by changing to another
source of milk, or by discontinuing
milk entirely.
While the diet is being changed it
is all right to use any of the regu
lar line of salves and washes. They
do no harm.
Cancer From Hot Drinks.
X. Y. Z. writes: "1. How much
hot water should be drunk to wash
out the stomach and when is the best
time?
"2. Is there dagger of overdoing
hot water drinking. What is the
minimum and how often should that
ceremony be performed?"
REPLY.
1. A pint is enough. Use it when
you get up in the morning. Do not
take it too hot.
2. Yes. You can dilate your stom
ach by taking too much. You can
bring on cancer by taking it too hot.
Kerosene for Fido.
C. M. writes: "Will you please
tell me what I can do to rid my dog
of lice?"
REPLY.
Kerosene is the stock remedy for
lice. Hot vinegar for nits. 1

Continuing Our July Sale of
Mina
ayloi
Dresses
The third day's selling will find enthusiasm at its
height, for the news of this wonderful sale is being
broadcasted. Women fairly reveled in the-racks and
racks of colorful summer dresses stretched one block
in length down the main aisle of our second floor.
The reason for the unusual display and pricing? It
is the "end of the season" surplus stock of the maker
which we took over at sharp reductions. As a result
we in turn offer them to our patrons at the lowest
prices one could conceive for Mina Taylor dresses.
In Five Great Groups
$1195
$995 $195
Women, who perhaps earlier in the season longed for dresses of this quality, but tried to get along without be
cause of their higher markings, wfll be delighted with this opportunity to purchase them now at these prices.
