Show To Keep Ilaliy Quiet. I should like to tell mothers of a simple sim-ple thing that, has kept my baby quiet many hours, and given me considerable rent. We all know that the little things want to be nursed much more often than is good for them, or at least such is the case with my 8-months-old baby. I bought a black rubber nipple (any kind will do, but the small black ones are the best) for a nursing bottle, cut a small rubber band in two and drew one end through the hole in the nipple, put a little cotton batting in, and then a cork in large end to keep air out. When baby is well fed and comfortable otherwise, but still wants the comfort of something ifl his mouth, I just give him this, It is perfectly harmless, as I used one of tho isamo kind for my girl, who is now 6 years old. I call it my "blesmng," and indeed it is when I take him out riding or on street ears.-Cor. Ladies' Home Journal. |
