Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - January 16, 1891, Winnipeg, Manitoba Manitoba daily free press Winnipeg Jan. 16. A child s play Boom. Useful and necessary adjunct to every household. In pleasant weather children Aho Ald it tight to live oat of sob nest Boom in every Homo Shemild fitted up for children. The Choice of a Day and Nursery certainly is an important Factor in the proper physical development of a boy or a or jul in the Lute Spring warm Hamm or and Early possible in the open air. If by Good Fortune the Home in in a tillage or on a farm or in i City where householders have lots of goodly sue service of the Nursery maid is reduced to the minimum in the season for out of door life and Tho Mother need Only consider in the furnishing of the play room Tho necessities which come with in Clement weather. As Early As possible the children to live out of doors. When too tiny to do anything but sleep in the Sun As do the insects and animals of All Ages have the nurse sit out of doors in an easy Chi air and cuddling the Little one in her Anna let him breathe in nature s tonic of , Sun warmed air or Brinsc out the baby Carriage and let the naps be taken where secure from draught the baby lungs May take in pure air to Viii to the blood and give to the organism what is needed for growth. When the child is awake lot in nurse s Lap and with a stick the up the Oil find even on warm clays when a Nice Shower has soften my thai ground let tha child make mud jilt a for so he gets near to our dear Mother Earth. He Inea tires his intent faculty of cation mid it there be More than one child in the Simily a spirit of emulation will be aroused Anil the first strivings to to More than Ordinary will to born in the Little soul. Give them the Chim whose face hands feet nails Are always immaculate is Tho unfortunate child who Iuis never been allowed o come in Contact with his Mother Earth and such a child is very rarely Well and Strong. Play clothes should not be Fine clothes Ami one of the very to to a boy or girl is a due regard for the fitness of things even in the Small matter of Suita ble dress for occasions. While a stick will answer for a Little baby to prod tic Earth children who Aru Alv Vaj impatient for some hard work should be sup plied with Little rakes and hoes and Spades my however Small the Garden plat let the child have a piece of it for himself. In Case it necessity Mamma s chamber and the Day Nursery must be Ono but for the Sake of both the children should ill possible have their own room. The reason is evident. What would Delight the hearts of a of children in the furnishings and appointments of a play room would of Lenci the taste of a refined woman if she had always to live in it. Nine children ont of ton would rather have the pict i e of a cow or a horse or a dog in the place of Honor than one of Whistler s finest etch Ings or even Millet s and on the Otheir hand the Bric a Brac Aad draperies which so tastefully adorn a lady s chamber would be considered Veri table nuisances n the children s Domain. Put that vase Don t touch the your feet off the Stop making pictures on the window Are commands which should never be issued to children in their own Domain but which an certainly necessary when Mamma s Comfort is in danger or the safety of her room furnishings imperilled. Puyot Shang a nue sekt. In choosing the Day Nursery or play room the Mother should consider the fact that children like plants need a Groat Deal of Sunshine and fresh air. They also need room to develop in hence if i could have my Way the largest and Best lighted a pet fire room should be set apart for the children. I would have no draperies of any kind about the windows. To shut ont any excess of Sunshine venetian blinds Are the very Best because made of Wood they Chi to wiped Over often and so kept clean. Pho Walls if the limits of the purse Al Low be painted because paint can Eulily be cleaned and in the Long run even though the Cost be greater than paper such a treatment of Tho Walls is More economical. A quiet tone of Gray or Dull Yel of makes a Good Shade for the eyes and is also a Good background for pictures Many of which should be hang about the room. These should not be frequently changed As children Seldom grow tired of seeing the same thing. The theme of the pictures should be adapted to the age of the occupants of the Nursery. In a Tho Oug Bly Well built House with do cracks around the floors or below the windows to admit undesirable draughts of air the hard finished floor May be used ont it should be Well covered to its utmost boundaries in Winter by a Good carpet Rug which like the venetian Blind is susceptible of being thoroughly cleaned. The furniture of the room Sho Tild be simple but Dainty. A Model plat room. La this Nursery i should have children spend the part of the life which is not lived out of doors. The introduction of a Young child to the family table is As hurtful to the child As it is often trying to the parents and unless As a matter of sheer necessity this is to be avoided. One of the happiest families of children Ever knew had their play room in the attic of a City House. Of course under the eaves there Weru trunks and boxes where the family treasures were stored away8 brr curtains made of Calico were so Hung tha All evidences of storage were shut out o sight so keeping the Little Folk from the pc Emu lion to rummage. The floor was kept Fly an with frequent scrubbing and Noi irly covered that the children of whom there were six. Tinder 12 years need not get cold sitting Down to play games. All manner of toys were to be found a rocking horse to relight the boys a swing Hung from the racers for baby a Small table for a doll s Tea party cribs and cradles for Tho dolls blocks Noah s urls steam cars and express in the Graceful disorder characteristic of a play room play time and All carefully put in place when Clearing up time came. In one Corner was a real Little Kitchen with oilcloth on the floor a toy stove and its paraphernalia tubs clothes horse Etc., that the Little girls might taste in Advance the delights of housework. Surely All this indicated that the parents of these Littie Folk had their happiness and proper development at heart. The windows Uncur trained let in plenty of Sunshine and an open Franklin stove c the needed heat with the Beauty of on open fire. Here All to rape to their hearts or.

Passenger fairly tumbles into second electricity Boring tunnels. The new railway which is to connect the Argentine Republic with Chili will necessitate the Boring of eight tunnels through the auck a mountains of a total length of nearly ten Miles. These tunnels in whose construction water Power and electricity Are to be largely employed in a novel form have already been commenced at Twenty Points. Since August lust a Cataract of the Jun Calillo River which has it fall of nearly to feet has been Ninde use of to Supply the Power in carrying out the Bor ing operations in the tunnels of Portillo Lei calavera and la Cumber. The Portillo Tunnel takes i serpentine course through. The massive Rock and its upper end emerges at the Mountain aide 430 Foet above the in trance. The water of the Jun Calillo Cataract a conveyed through steel Pip ii half a meter in diameter for Tho distance of about a mile to tie Juncal station the Boring machines employed in three tunnels require a Force of horse Power to drive and this a obtained by converting the Power into electricity. The Winter which is carried through the steel pipes it Raade to set in motion ten turbines enc i 60 horse Power which Are connected with the electrical machines. The electricity thus produced through Strong insulated Copper cables to Junca Lillo and Caldera from Junna Lillo air pressure machines Are also supplied in the serpentine Tunnel leading up to Portillo. From calavera four so horse Power by Nii Iuo machines generate the electricity for the in inbred Tunnel where six borers All working lit the Sunie time Are driven by eight air pressure engines. On the Argentine Side of the mountains another cat tract near Navarro has been similarly for driving four turbines each of 80 hours Rte owing to the distance of the Western smaller portion of Cumber Tunnel water Power cannot there be employed and the brings arc being carried ont by hand.
