CLOTHING An infant's clothes should be de signed for comfort, economy and sea sonal requirements. If top snug they tend to hamper Wthc natural body movements, and if too Urge they are apt. to form creases and bunches which may be uncomfortable. The clothing must be loose enough 'so that the growing child may have plenty of room to cxrrcise and breathe freely. If garments arc made with too many frills, it becomes quite a task to have them properly cleaned and ironed. Such clothes arc expensive to buy and if made at home by, the mother take considerable time and energy. Remember that the child will soon w these and they will then be i. Plain, neat dresses are really far more desirable. Perhaps two or three plain dresses can be purchased for the price of a fancy one, and will undoubtedly give far more service and satisfaction. The principal con* sidcration in baby clothes is cleanli ness, comfort and economy. Host ile are more interested in a thy, happy baby than in his fancy dress. and-wool, or silk-and-wool mixture. They should open all the way down the front, and the arm holes should be large enough so that the arms will f*cs iwuugh casiiy. petticoats should be made of flannel and should extend a short distance below the feet In dressing the child he,should he laid on the lap or bed, and'the Cloth ing drawn up over his feet The ordi nary pins are dangerous and should be avoided. • Even safety pins are apt! to open and seriously wound babyt therefore, care should be taken to see that they arc securely fastened. Pet ticoats should be supported by shoul der straps in order to avoid the use of pins or tight draw strings. At night the child’s clothing should be completely changed. The night dress should be longer than the day dress and roomy enough to permit free movement of the limbs, the winter it should be of light, soft flannel, or similar material, and made to close at the bottom with a draw string. During the summer the most string. suitable material to use is soft mus lin, and the night dress may be left open at the bottom. The abdominal band should be watched closely. It should be tight fnough to give the necessary support tn order to prevent rupture, but not enough to cause discomfort at any time. Diapers should be removed im mediately when soiled, and then placed in boiling water for fifteen minutes. After washing they should be carefully rinsed and dried. Iron them smoothly but do not use cither itarch or blueing. Clean, dry napkins ire very essential to baby’s comfort, and will help to prevent irritation of his tender skin. Diapers should be made of a soft, light, absorbent mate* rial, and plenty of them should always be on hand so that they can be changed immediately when they be come wet or soiled. No clothing should ever be dried in the baby’s room on account of the dampness and odor thus produced. It is best to dry the clothes out of doors *hcn weather oermits.
