formative years of their lives are home associa-

loving watchfulness of a father and mother. There

OLDEST LAND IN THE. WORLu
According to Scientists Our Earth
Had Its Origin in the Lauren
tian Highlands.

Stretching across Canada, north OF
the st. Lawrence, and ending in the
regions about the source of the Mis-
sissippi, is range of low granite hills
called the Laurentian highlands. These
hills are really mountains that are al
most worn out, for they are the old
est land in America, and, according
to Agassiz, the Oldest in the world.
In the days when there was nothing
but water on the face of the globe,
these mountains came up-a long is
land of primitive rock with universal
ocean chafing against its shores. None
OF the other continents had put in
their appearance at the time America
was thus looking up. The United
States began to come to light by the
gradual uplifting of this land to the
north and the appearance of the tops
of the Alleghenies which were next
In order Later the Rockies started
up. The United States grew south
ward from Wisconsin and westward
from the Blue Ridge. An early view
Of the country would have showed a
large island which Is now northern
Wisconsin, and long thin tongue of
this primitive rock sticking down from
Canada into Minnesota. and these two
growing states looking out over the
waters at the mere beginnings of
mountain ranges east and west. They
were waiting for the rest of the Unit
ed States to appear-The Atlantic.

ever had on stitch of flannel, not even a
flannel petticoat. They have warm wraps
when they go out of doors, but in the house
they wear little socks and low-necked and
short-sleeved cotton or wooden clothes.
They live also on the simplest and plainest
food-cereals and eggs, tender steaks and
good roast meat, with plenty of vegetables
and fruit, and the simplest sort of dessert
when they have any at all. No pies and
pastry, and no nibbling at candy all day for
them. I also put great stress on absolute
regularity in eating. and no matter who
else waits, the children have their meals
exactly on the stroke of the clock.
We are very domestic family. and the
children have their breakfast and lunch,
which is really their dinner, with Mr.. Gould
and myself, but until they are 16 years old
they have their supper at little after six
O'Clock, and only have something very light
to eat. They never come to dinner, unless
upon their birthdays it is permitted as a
great treat. Why, Marjorie never came to
dinner regularly until last year. and she is
still so attached to the nursery tea that
when we are down at Georgian Court she
often eats with the children by preference.
