QUIET FOR BABY If you get baby off to a good start, you'll find he'll be easier to handle as he grows older. It's a good idea to make sure that his play room is away from house traffic, the telephone and street distractions. Rugs or sound muffling flooring material like rubber tile are good choices for the nursery, and shades or other blinds help keep out the early morning light from the window. KEEP 'EM FRESH Marshmallows will stay fresh if placed in the bread box. They absorb moisture from the bread that keeps them fresh for days.
