A GIRLS coNFiDANT.
One of the saddest things in life is
when a girl begins to deceive her
mother. Every day one reads of some
tragedy In life in which some girl has
one something to bring shame on her
parent-something which lowers her In
the estimation OF her friends. Some-
lines 1t Is an elopement, sometimes
trickery n deceit.

When first we practice to deceive.

that the heart-yearning OF b girl for
ner mother in this instance was as

the true instinct OF every girl to fly to

story. h girl had only the mothers
picture to look at. but she seemed to

A CHlLD'S "SWEET TOOTH"
A common thought for mothers is
that nature has made a serious mis-
take in giving a sweet tooth" to the
children, while children regard the
sugar bowl the jam pot as the
source of all that is delectable. Neither
of these opinions could be called right.
for sugar is not the poison and spolier
of digestion that the careful mother
thinks it is; neither is it better than
meat and bread and butter, as is
thought by the children.
Sugar is a food and a very neces-
sary one, but still it may be taken in
too great quantities. Foods are divi-
ded into two great classss-the pro-
teids Cmeats, egg and leguimes), which
contain nitrogen as tnelT most import
ant element, and the sugars, starches
and fats, composed chiefly of carbons.
Both of these are necessary, the pro-
ted to build up the frame work of the
body, n the other TO supply energy;
the proteids are the iron of the boiler

packing and the sugars are the fuel:
all are necessary to the perfect work.

The danger of taking sweets Is in

Indian Believes In omens.

Mysticism plays q great part in the
hunting Of the Indian. He is a great
believer in signs and omans, and if he
starts to hunt and sees sign or omen
that bodies evil he turns back to wait
more propitious time. The fight Of
certain birds, the floating of a feather,
the crawling of snakes, are of import,
and unless he believes in the potency
of his medicine to overcome the evil
influence he will not go after game
when the signs are not right. The In
dian, being very susceptible to cold,
does little hunting in the dead of vim
ter Being neither hardy nor warmly
clothed, he prefers the warm camp
fire in the tepee to the distress of the
hunting trail when the cold is biting
1t is generally believed that the red
man is one of the most hardy Of the
human race because he has spent his
life in the open, but that sort of life
Is not conducive to hardness unless it
be accompanied with plenty of food
and warm clothing. San Francisco
