New, Unrivaled, Life-like Are These Victor

Red Seal Recordings

One of the most masterly Victor Records of all time is Bloch's Concerto Grosso, which Fabien Sevitzky and the Philadelphia Chamber String Sinfonietta have recorded for release this month. Here is music that vitalizes the powers of the small string orchestra to the utmost; here is a recording that couples high genius with flesh-and-blood reality! To keep it company is a truly inspiring and entirely complete recording of The Pirates of Penzarice, performed by the Rupert. D'Oyly Carte Light Opera Company and Orchestra. Crystal-clear diction, bright and sparkling interpretation, place this album of Victor Records among the best. within recent times. There are a large number of other Red Seal Records which you will want to hear and keep forever. You are cordially invited to hear them on our Victor Radio-Electroli.“

THOSE BARE FLOORS.

WEIGHING BABY.

Baby does not welcome his weigh-,

It is no use. You cannot wear out a Victorian carpet and so have a legitimate excuse for doing away with it. You must take your cour. age in both hands, face the econo- mical wrath of your husband and send it to the auction rooms.

When the floor of your room is barren and awaiting some form of decoration, there are many ways of ornamenting it.

A

Enamelled floors are effective. scarlet Acor looks lovely with brown and white rugs; and rugs are easi ly cleaned or waabed,

The colour you choose for your floor should be bright, Grass- green, olive-green, wine colour, and- orange look extremely well. Black and brown should be avoided, for they are banal, but if your floor must be dark, why not enamel it navy blue, a colour which is not sufficiently used in decoration"?

And then there are the new paint- ed floors, which are so amart."

Geometric Borders.

The floor is painted a plain colour, with a geometrically pat terned border of two or three dif ferent shades, toning with the general scheme. It gives the im pression of a carpet, but it has that shiny effect" which is so essen. tial in modern decoration.

his mother, and often he strongly objects to the process. The mother, to save time when weighing Baby, should first place on the scale the number of weights she expects to require, then only a few ounces will have to be added after the little one is in the basket.

Be sure that Baby's head and limbs are supported by the basket only or the scale will not register correctly. The shawl in which Baby is wrapped must be weighed afterwards and the weight deduct- ed.

Baby should be weighted once a week for the first few months and then once a month, and a chart should be kept to record. Baby's weight increases.

The weighing should be done on same hour, each time. the same day, and if possible at the

Although a steady regular gain ir weight is an indication that Baby is thriving well, the mother must not be unduly anxious if now and again there is no increase; the cutting of a tooth, a slight cold, s little indigestion, or other simple upsets may be quite sufficient to prevent any gain. If Baby is quickly increasing in length, he may not put on much weight at the same time.

Baby's Weekly Gain,

Too rapid a gait in weight is as undesirable as an insufficient gain; a Baby who is gaining too quickly is probably having too much food, and overfeeding leads to many dis-

asters.
