is YOUR CLOCK ON TIMEY
some Interesting observations sug-
gested by This Frequently Re-
peated Query.

One Of the things I have learned in
the course of my experience, g said the
middle-aged man, according TO the
New York Sun, lis that people don't
ike 10 have you ask: Is your clocx
rightY This is a question that we put
to a great many people, and II Is more
or less annoying TO most Of them. /
have seen men resent It with a start.
though that would be something I'M
usual; but, as a rule, most mer think
well OF their clocks, and they resent the
question more or less in their hearts if
they don't in word or manner.
Doesn't every man think his own
watch is a good timekeeper2 He does.
1t may be a cheap watch that cost ten
dollars or five dollars or one dollar. but
he thinks it's a good one All Cheap
watches are better nowadays than they
used 10 be, but each man thinks he's
got the still remarkable exceptional
watch that really is a wonder. And
the clock owner thinks the same of his
clock. Whether IT'S in the tewelry
store, the bakery or the butchers. they
all resent the question: Is your clock
right?'
The question implies in some vague,
indefinite way the idea of an assump-
ton Of superiority on the part of the
luestioner, for does it not suggest in
'eriority. at least on the other mans |
clock? and no man likes il. NV concIu- |
sion is that nobody should as. the ques-
ion idly-not at an, in fact, unless
really depends upon it. But
I it should be really a matter Of i'm
'ortance for you TO know, then You
nay ask. and this time youT find the
question will not be resented"

DIET IN DISEASE.
BY Christine Terhune HerrIck.

Continued from last week.
When little one Is in the grip Of some

most any sort, his diet must bs settled

Is very simple, and al! that has been said
against overlooking oi rich food may be
repeated and emphasized More and
more doctors incline 10 a milk diet in
nearly every kind Of a fever. This is the
case in scarlet fever, where the milk is
often varied by koumiss Sometimes
cream soups and light gruels Of farina,
arrowroot and the Ike are given. Ocea-
sionaly a small amount Of ice cream, un-
Favored or with little vanilla or lemon,
may be permitted, but everything ex-
cept milk is usually ruled out. If the
child has the tendency TO uephrltls that
Is distressingly prone 20 follow scarlet

nouuced cOnvalescent, his diet must be
amplified with extreme care. and il is a
long time before il may Doe extended be-
