rne DIET FOR CHILDREN

The physiclan usually dlrects the
care OF the Invalid and the food for
the baby, but the mother 10 usually
left to work out her own problems 20
far - the older child IL concerned
One Of the troublesome problems for
the mother is deciding upon the right
food for the school children.
Fortunately the healthy child settles
the matter for himself, ID a great ex'
tent, and his own normal appetite
guides him up to a certain point. But
u nornal appetite may easily become
perverted and 50 lead him astray.
A child needs large per cent. OF
tissue building foods, such as eggs
lean meat, milk, etc, when he sHrow-
ing rapidly. One is often alarmed NJ
the amount a growing boy eats, but
there is really little cause for anxiety
II the child thoroughly masticates his
food and eats the right kinds at the
proper time.
In regard to sweets, candy Is very
desirable II taken at the end or tine
meal, but II eaten between meals II
is very Objectionable, since it satisfies
the appetite, so the person does not
care for the coming meal; still II does
not give the proper nourishment.
II simple, attractive sandwiches ana
plenty Of them were always given
children at a party before the ICED
cream or candy we're passed, fewer
children would overeat ut parties.
II children are allowed 10 eat freely
the food must be simple and easy TO
digest. Most meats excepting pork
vegetables, fruits, simple puddings,
very little or no pastry, and plain
cakes, with plenty of good bread and
butter, also cereals well cooked, milk
and eggs, will furnish sufficient vari-
ETY. for anyone. Tea and coffee should
never be given children, while cocoa
may be given IN moderation.
Many children have to be urged to
eat fat, as few children eat enough
fat. 1t can be given them In the
form OF butter or cream.
1t is very desirable that children
should grow up learning to like all
ordinary foods and so be able TO eat
every kind OF wholesome food.
The question OF eating between
meals Is one that frequently arises.
The child who has his breakfast very
early often becomes very faint before
his noon meal. In such cases the
child should be given light lunch.
II child is really hungry he will eat
bread and butter. A sandwich, with |
the addition Of some kind OF fruit,
will often do much to preserve a
child's good temper and also help him
do his work better.
Good habits In regard to eating
should be established at an early age,
since they will probably remain with
one through life.

for consideration during the COMING
week
The joint committee on liquor traf-
fire has finished its work, and the four
bills proposing statutory prohibition
fo the state are in readiness for con-
sideration.
A majority of the committeeman
stood firmly in adherence to- the com
promise clause. which will put the
statutory measure into effect on the
3Ist of December.
The radical element made a dete--
mined fight TO secure control of the
committee, but without success. A
majority of the members believed
that it would be better to secure har-
monious action, thus assuring favor
able consideration of the concurrent
resolution providing for statutory
prohibition, and it is NOW believed
that both measures will be favorably
acted upon, with very few dissenting
votes.
The bill presented by the opponents
of the proposed child labor law, fix
ing the age limit at 10 years is alb
surd, said Senator Mcdowell, header
of the child labor forces. I am sur
prised that such a measure should be
presented by men supposed to be
