Pastures of Children.

In q recent lecture to mothers and teach
ers on incorrect postures of children the
speaker spoke of inturning feet and the
means of correcting them, but turned toes
and feet, she said, are the result of train
ing, and II the mother finds tendency on
the part of her child to turn the toes in she
must resort to training to remedy it. This
consists in developing the outer muscles
by proper exercise.
OF tho physical training Of the child
from birth the lecturer said that excessive
crying being accepted as harmful, the av-
erage mother therefore assumes that all
crying is harmful and should be sup
pressed. This is faulty reasoning. The
natural crying of baby is really means
of development, rs by crying the lungs are
expanded and tho relations between circu-
lation and respiration are thus established
and strengthened.

Woman's Influence.

pends upon tho woman at the head of it
tho average home, not the poverty stricken
home nor the wealthy home In this av
erage home, whether sunshine shall enter

be used and enjoyed, whether the table
shall be invitingly spread, whether light

cheer on winter nights-whether, in brief,
the homo shall be an agreeable or Disagree
able place, is usually what the woman de-
terminos. Men arc powerless in the mat

SANTA BARBARA
Sample Ballots Being Distributed-The Water
Supply Que stlon

SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 1.-Sample
ballots are being distributed today for
the purpose Of instructing electors how
to vote at the coming municipal cleo
tion. The proposition before the people
is: Shall the city of Santa Barbara
incur an indebtedness of $50, 900 and is
sue bonds for water supply, as set
forth in ordinance Nos. 296 and 29S of
said city. The lack of general interest
In the subject is remarkable and it Is
impossible to fortell in what direction
lies the consensus Of opinion.
The present campaign in this country
witnesses many improvements over
those of former years. A favorite fea-
ture Is the organization of ladies' glee
clubs as aids to the regular party clubs,
LOmpoc has two of these ladies' clubs,
composed respectively of AZ and 43 men,
bers, one being attached to the Bryan
Silver club and the other to the McKin-
ley-Hobart organization.
The residents of Montecito are in re-
volt. They will spare no water for the
city of Sans. Barbara and will forcibly
impress this fact upon the common coun-
Gil at Thursdays meeting. The remOn-
STRANGE reads as follows:
The undersigned. residents of Monte
cito, respectfully request the mayor and
common council OF santa Barbara, in
connection with the problem of muni-
cipal water supply, to consider the fol-
lowing facts, viz: First, that the in
babitants of Montecito are almost en-
tirely dependent on the flow of a few
small creeks for watS. for all uses; sec
ond, that the entire flow Of these creeks
IS utilized in the dry season, and it is
found insufficient to afford an amount
of water adequate to maintain the
houses, orchards and gardens already
laid out; third, that the construction of
tunnels In our watershed near these
stream beds and the diversion of the
water to new uses will necessarily d.
minish the amount heretofore devoted
to local purposes; and, fourth, mas
much, therefore, as the prosperity of the
suburbs of Santa Barbara is a chief fac
tor in the prospecting of the city itself,
and because sense of natural right
forbids interference with vested inter-
ests necessary for the welfare of the
owners of those interests,we respectfully
petition the city authorities to supply
municipal needs from some source
which will not impair our own streams.

A Parlor Game.

A game called "vlshcs'' is played by
giving each person who participates card
or slip Of paper, on which he writes three
or more wishes and signs his name. Tho
cards arc collected and the wishes read
aloud by one Of the number. The others
try to guess, from the character Of the
wishes, who it was that made them. When
this is successfully done, that person is ex-
pected to tell why his wishes were made.
Among people who know each other well
the guessing and the discussions that arc
apt to grow out of the defense of the posi-
ton taken in wishing for certain things,
material or spiritual, are interesting.

Cycling For Children.

An article by Mr.. E. B. Turner, f. r.
G. S., in The British Medical journal,
answers many questions which arc con-
stantly being asked as tothe limits impos-
ed on cycling by age. In regard to the
age at which cycling may properly be
learned, it may safely be said that no child
under years old should be permitted to
ride under any circumstances, and that
when children begin to ride great care
should be taken to insure proper size of
saddle, handle bars and length of crank,
and to prevent nil hill climbing and excess
i've speed. The greatest test after ride
is the condition OF the child next day.
