'. Certain common-sense rules oi m9 should be observed. There “air with deep breathing; intellig-

e standpoint oi cleanliness, but in order to keep the pores active; an increased amount oi sleep, avoid- ance oi irritating stimulants, and a simple. wnorssome, well-balanced diet. Special attention should be paid to keeping the system free from clogging waste material,

Oi equal importance with the physical preparation is the cultiva- tion oi a calm mind, free irom worry and iear. The nerves feed- ing the mammary glands have an relationship with the

mind. The clothing should be amply loose, to allow for development oi

sion oi the nipples.

Nursing will be made easier for the baby and more comfortable for the‘ mother if, during the last two months oi pregnancy, her nipples are bathed night and morning with - a solution oi alcohol and borlc acid, in order to harden the skin.

The baby should be put‘ to the breast as soon as the mother has rested and sufficiently recovered While the milk does not appear in the breast un- til, from forty-eight to seventy- two hours aiter birth, there is a semi-opaque fluid secreted, called colostrum. This may not. only sat- isiy the child. but it is thought to act as a laxative to the baby. clearing the intestines oi the waste material they contain at birth. A further advantage of the baby's ei- forts at nursing is its stimulating effect upon the mammary glands secrete the milk.

EVEN IF BABY ISN'T HUNGRY

if it so happens that the baby is unwilling to nurse, he should neverthedess be spor- tunltrwreg" , u at‘ tel’ a while hewill become‘ hunger enough to make an eiiort to get his food. 1n the meantime, he should be given from one-hall to one ounce of boiled and slightly warm- ed, unsweetened water every two hours.

Before each nursing the nipples should be washed with a saturated solution oi borlc acid; alter nurs- ing this should be repeated and the nipple well dried. Fissures or cracks often result from omitting this care, that is. leaving the nip- ple unwashed and moist. Uncens- iug care in this respect is espec- ially necessary during the first few days. ii there is a tendency for the breasts to leak, they should be kept covered with pads oi sterili- zed absorbent gauze.

lf at the beginning of nursing the nipples are sensitive, they may be protected by a sterilized glfss and rubber shield. A baby should ne- ver be allowed to nurse on a crack- ed or iissured nipple, but the breast-shield should be used until healing has taken lace.

For the iirst day the baby is us- ually put 0n the breast once in six hours; second day, every iour hours; and on the third day, after the milk has come, every three hours. There should be in the twenty-four hours ten nnrsings That is from 6 a. m. to 10 p. m. there should be nine, with one nursing at 2 or 3 a. m. After the baby becomes older and is well started, the tendency is to leag- then the intervals at night-

SIGNS OF A ‘WELL-FED BABY

The signs of successful nursing are: first, .a satisfied. healthy baby. it under three months oi EBB. he will be" content to fall asleep at the end of ten, or at the most, twenty minutes of nursing; two or three soft, yellow stools

oi not less than ur ounces.

Many physici advise giving the baby one b tie-feeding daily. ‘The advantages this are three- fold.
