IN general terms we might say that
any fruit which Is in perfect condition
and IN season may be given to children,
but 1t Is TO be remembered that such
broad definition must be qualified by
the constitution and digestion OF each
child. It is wise to teach them to dis
card the seeds OF apples. grapes, pears,
oranges and raisins. Fruit should BE-
given them in moderation. even when
II appears to agree perfectly. Such
fruits as contain an excess Of acid
should be given sparingly until It Is GER
tain that they win not cause any skin
eruption such as is known TO be pro-
duced on many persons by strawber-
ries. Fruit In season Is better than that
bought out OF season. In the late vim
ter and early spring. when even apples
are scarce and expensive, use carefully
cooked dried fruits. such as prunes,
fRs. apricots, dates. etc. All dried
fruits should be carefully washed hrss
in warm, then In cold water. covered
with fresh cold water and allowed to
soak for at least twenty-four hours. II
may then be cooked for number Of
hours In q double boiler. sugar being
added while cooking.

ferent craEes which are
bound to crop up decade or so before
its close and to welcome the changes
which come IN with the new era.
Why mankind should be more than
usually prone to change at this period
the philosophers possibly can tell US,
but most OF US depend upon material
and visible objects as a guide 70 the
signs Of the times. How far tastes
have altered during the transition
from one century to another we shall
not know for some years TO come. but
In one direction-that OF our return to
and love OF the old In furniture-the
change is decidedly marked. We are
Still Indebted to the artistic ideals OF
generations long past and more espe-
cialIy 10 those OF the eighteenth CEN
fury.
The average woman IS very hazy in
her old furniture lore. She knows there
were q certain set OF ancient cabinet
mixers who have been influencing mo-
hillary art ever since their day. The
names Of chippendale, Sheraton and
Adams loom perhaps most prominently
in her memory. but the particular styles
for which these names stand are In
many instances consplcuously absent
or very mythical.
To the student Of old furniture there
IS no more attractive or necessary
study than dates. and there is a subtle
pleasure in learning to decide at a
glance about where to place certain

cerned them not at all. They initiated
others and were in turn initiated with
cheerful indifference. In this way the
peculiaritIes of each worker are often
difficult to distinguish, though the at
tempt is very interesting.
1t is only possible here to give very
cursory glance at a few characteristics
OF several OF these eighteenth century
artists. The Adams brothers, for In

anc designers of wood afterward, are

of workmanship without. on the other

Attention is called to those essentially
feminine habits OF putting pins in the
mouth or moistening pencil with the
lips.
A pin swallowed means only a SUR
gical case. but the greater danger Lies
in the contagion that may be lurking in
the pin itself. Under the head OF the
pin or in the point Of the pencil all
kinds OF malignant germs may be locat-
ed which will be tranBmitted by the
mouth quicker than any other way. It
hardly seems possible that any one
