morning and eat light breakfast, consist
ing Of a soft-boiled egg and toast, a glass

moderate amount of fruit in season; little
meat, and that only at noon; all kinds of
vegetables in season proper food.

piece of economy to inhale the same air
more than once First let the child sleep
in cool, we'll aired room, and IL possible
in the morning give the bath then take him
outdoors, where he should remain not less
than six hours. Water should be given
before each feeding, and not less than six

salt. therefore 1t is necessary that plenty
of salt be given the child With the free
use OF salt in the food during the first two
years In life the second set of teeth will
be much better.
