TEA-DRINKlNo BY CHILDREN
Said by Physicians to Be Prevalent
Among Those OF Poor Who
Cannot Afford Milk.

1t has been stated by physicians that
the practice of tea drinking among the
children Of the poor is very prevalent,
says the Detroit News-Tribune. Even
little ones less than two years old are
given tea to drink three times day.
The reason for this is that the parents
are not able to buy milk for the chill
dren, and, thinking that they must have
something to drink besides water, ig-
norantly give them tea, never realizing
the disastrous results that may follow to
the growing child in the way OF nervous
ness and other troubles. Physicians
who work among the poor are discour-
aging this practice as far as possible and
a vising water as beverage, either cold
or hot with alittlo milk added, making
that drink<Yaown in many families as
cambria tea" Women, too, who know
better than to give tea to babes, might
do much good by instructing those who
do not know better; not in an intrusive
way, but by perhaps saying: MY doc
tor says 1t is harmful to give children
tea, so I have stopped it altogether"
And the ignorant women, with the doc
tors opinion placed before them, will
more often than not listen and profit by
it, for they have much confidence in a
physician,

Teaching a Horse to StanL

AS soon Us the colt is fairly gentle
and has been ridden a few times, throw
the reins down and with strong, but
soft rope hobble his front legs. Fasten
a rope 20 feet long to one front leg and
the other 10 stout post or stake. Or
dinarily the horse will not move when
thus fastened, but if he does he soon
comes to grief. A few lessons of this
sort will never be forgotten.
, After awhile it will only be neces-
sary to wrap the reins around the
horses front legs, and later simply
dropping the reins to the ground will
be sufficient. If any time the horse gets
to moving around and forgets his early
training, pass the reins through the
stirrup and then up and over the horn
of the saddle This pulls the head
around to one side and the horse will
generally not go far.-Farm and
Home.

WENT TOO MUCH BY NAME
Lady Hotel Guest Receives Some Rn-
lightenment from Colored
Waiter.

A woman lives at one of the Kansas
City hotels who has the reputation of be.
ing rather fnicky and hard to please in
the manner Of food. A day or two ago
at lunch, relates the Kansas City Jour
nal, after looking over the dessert list,
she decided on some ice cream pudding.
The meal had been one with which she
had considerable difficulty in finding fault,
but when she had about half finished the
dessert she called the waiter over and
said:
George, what do you mean by calling
this ice cream pudding? There isn't any
ice cream about it. and you know it,"
"Yes'm," said the waiter. ~ know
dere amt no ice cream in it. OATS jes
q name they give it. | do know why"
"Well," she continued. Il think that
if they give a dish such a name they
ought to make it conform to the name,
and if you call this ice cream pudding,
you ought to bring some ice cream with
it."
"Yes'm," answered the servitor, "but
you know we can't allus do it that way.
You know we doesn't bring cottage in
with cottage pudding"
The walters reply brought a burst Of
laughter from the people who heard the
conversations and since then the woman's
criticisms of the menu have been few and
infrequent.
