he heard a sad voice saying:

ended in cute little toes, like the nlbtjj

I 'I want to get up in u tiee so I can1

II The truth wan that Uncle Wigglly
did not want to hurt the little frog

for a frog, but it was not at all like'

It is better as it is. I have failed but
I can sleep,
Though the pit in which 1 am n.j.v i-
very dark and deep
I can walk tomorrow's streets and can
meet tomorrow's men
Unashamed to face their gaze as I go
to work again.
I have lost the hope I had. in the dust
are all my dreams.
But my loss is not so great or so
dreadful as It seems.
For I made my fight and failed, but I
need not slink away
For I do not have to fear what an
other man may say.
They mav call m oor bold, they may
say that I was frail,
They may tc 11 I dared too much and
was doomed at last to fan
They rnuy talk my battle o'er and dis

But 1 did no brother wrong I'm the
only one to lose.
It Is better ns it Is I have kept my
self -respect,
I can walk tomorrow's streets meeting

And no man can swe-ar at me for th
pledge I did not keep
I have no shame to regret, 1 have

i to babies who arc well cared for. A.
'good mother, accordingly, is In a mea-j
sure responsible for all children It.
j Is u part of her duty to her own hlld
to stimulate community activities of,
the sort that will make It possible
for every mother to give her child the
care it needs.
it has been shown that the chief
cause of de-ath among babies dUlihg
'the first year of life, and especially
! during the perilous first month. Is

What elo you know about the milk

.'Ley soon perish when they arc re
I moved from their natural element. But
jthey remain alive for hours, and some
I times against sunlight, dryness, star

. Sunlight Is one of the greatest de
stroyers of disease germs. They do not
survive for long In a sunshiny room
li exposed to the light. But, If they
are protected In a mass of excretion,
such as phlegm from tho throat, the
I rays of the sun do not reach them
and they may survive 'for weeks or
j months.
J Dryness kills most germs very qulck
' ly. but they survive in damp places,
especially in darkness, sometimes for
! many weeks.
After disease germs are expelled
from the body they areu sually not

jand soon die of starvation. Some few

The use of soapsuds scrubbing

destroying disease germs. Children j
