The Home Doctor,
Against the practice OF giving tea
and coffee to children. we cannot speak

when the nervous activity is at its
greatest. The brain Is ever busy re.

lal sense are all under a special course
of training.
The nervous system Is pushed 10 It's
utmost capacity. and long is the list Of
victims that follow its over-stlmula-
ton. In these little people nothing but
harm can come from the use of such
cerebral stimulants as tea or coffee.
Bad. then, as this practice IL, let MS as
physicians be aggressive in its prohibl-

when asked as to its use, but let us
teach the families with whom we come
in contact that such practice Is evil
