I have often thought I would like to cover their faces for an hour and see how they would bear it.

In such circumstances, in order to get the blanket open, I have asked to see the baby, and generally found it as red as a beet.

Ignorant nurses and mothers have discovered that children sleep longer with their heads covered.

They don't know why, nor the injurious effect of breathing over and over the same air that has been thrown off the lungs polluted with carbonic acid gas.

This stupefies the child and prolongs the unhealthy slumber.
One hot day, in the month of May, I entered a crowded car at Cedar Rapids, Ia., and took the only empty seat beside a gentleman who seemed very nervous about a crying child.
