Marguerites In Brilliants a Recently
Made Corsage Ornament.
The artist designers or the Goldslniths'
and Silversmiths' Company are never at a
loss for new IDEAS in the mounting and set
ting of their precious wares, says London
Queen. One of their latest chefs doeuvre
is a corsage ornament consisting of
garland or Iuarguerites carried out in
brilliants. The whole is set on spiral
springs, 80 that flowers ana foliage CULVER
with every movement OF the wearer. In
the center of each marguerite is set a fine
pearl, and pearls also form the buds,
which are blended with he wreath. The
flowers, five in numier, may be detached,
and Worn as a tiara, and each spray
may also be worn separately as a brooch
or hairpin.
Flexible bracelets sc. with preciousstones
are among the fashions OF the hour as
regards jewelry. One example of one of
these is OF exquisite workmanship. carried

of pearls.

GROWING CHILDREN.
The Period when the Nervous Ac.
tivity Is at Its Greatest.

The Home Doctor:
Against the practice of giving tea
and coffee to children, we cannot speak
too strongly. Childhood is the period
when the nervous activity is at its great
est. The brain is ever busy receiving
new Impressions. Reflex action, CO.
ordination of muscles, and the special
senses are all under special course OF
training. -
The nervous system is pushed to it's
utmost capacity, and long is the list
of victims that follow its over stimulation.
In these little people nothing but harm
can come from the use of such cerebral
stirnulants as tea and coffee. Bad, then,
as this practice is, let us as physicians,
be aggressive in its prohibition.
Do not be satisfied by answ ering NO."
when asked as to It use but let us teachthe
families with whom we confe in contact
that such practice is evil. We speak ern-
phatically, because not only among the
poor and uneducated, but among the rich,
who should know better, this practice
is marvelously prevalent.
Children like warm beverage for break
fast, and it is well for them to have it II
Postum Food Coffee is made to supply
a rich nour shing liquid food, with a crisp
coffee taste, for those who cannot and
should not use coffee. Analysis shows
it to contain about fourteen per cent of
tnuscle-forming elements, and 66.11 per
cent OF energy and fat producing elements,
which go to nourish and sustain the delicate
nerve sthroughoutt the body and from
which the vital energy proceeds.
The supreme Importance of proper food
in place of drugs is not generally under
stood, but the success OF child and adult. de-
ponds largelyupon proper sustenance for the
body. Children who depend tpon the in
teliigence of their elders to furnish them
with good food deserve our most care
