Tempting a Child to Eat.

V'r1E guardians or nnn1cky child
I know that meal time is often more
than matter of table setting and
food buying. Theorists say: Make
child eat!" but mothers know that
this Is often impossible until the little
one is reduced to sickness.
II will be found easier to tempt the
fitful appetite rather than to scold or
punish. Delicate children can often
be coaxed into a hearty meal when
force work would mean a scene. Make
the meal play time. Serve bread
and butter cut into thin slices and
piled up log cabin wise into a house,
and pretend the child Is an ogre to
eat it up.
Name dishes for different rhymes,
as Jack Horner's pie for followed out
rolls cooked like croutons and filled
with the nourishing poached eggs. Po-
tatoes can be nodded into the form
of wall with an egg perched on top
to represent Humpty Dumpty; the
child will quickly eat up the egg to
prevent 1.-THE great fall"
Boiled rice can be nodded into
snowballs, floating island can have
all sorts of delightful fancies woven
about 1t. vegetables can be cut into
odd shapes. and nourishing custards,
II put in individual molds o. animals,
will be eaten without a protest.
Beef juice usually causes a struggle,
but II the child pretends he is Jack
the Giant Killer, hurrying to get rid
of the delicious Juice lest the giant
think 1t the blood of an Englishman,"
1t is swallowed without murmur.
The game becomes of interest to
mother as well as child, as the neces-
sity to invent new stories and fresh
forms to tempt the little one to eat
demands ingenuity. Insensibly the
child learns to eat, so that latet the
practice can be discontinued.

The Home Department

IL YOU want to lead slaves life,
start out by singing your baby to
sleep every night.
Many women do this because they
like to do it. 1t is certainly a pretty
picture to see the young mother
grooming her first baby to sleep, and
one can hardly blame her for giving
way to the fascination and charm Of
these idle moments when the baby
drops on to sleep to the sound Of his
mothers soft voice But a life of
martyrdom is certain to follow such
1ndulgences, and when baby grows
older and is perfectly able to sleep
without accompaniment, he refuses to
do so, and demands to be sung to and
talked to and crooned to, and some
times gets so interested and excited
that be stays awake just to hear the
grand finish of the story. And mean
while the evening is rapidly passing
and any pleasure it held in store is
losing its value. Provided a mother
is certain her baby is not sick, she
should put the child to bed and leave
It,, not taking it up to induce 1t to
sleep. She should avoid sitting in
the same room. and If baby never
Knows any other way than this Of pass
ing into Sunderland it will make no
unnecessary demands.
II is better for a newborn baby 20

curtains may be fitted to shade it's
eyes, and bassinet is apt to be warm
er than crib, besides giving the child
more support at the sides. And by
the way, good bassinet may be made
from large oval clothes basket. If
crib Is used, the sides should be
carefully lined to keep off the draught.
1t is most important that the baby's
bed be properly aired after 1t has been
slept in. But it is also important to
have the bed clothes warm before the
baby is laid between them to sleep. AS
soon as the baby is taken from the
room the bed clothes should be
stripped from the mattress and. with
the mattress, well aired at the open
windows for an hour or more. When
the child Is put to bed, II the weather
is cold, the sheets should be warmed
before the fire. If this Is done, there
is no reason for the child being placed
between blankets. Blankets used in
this way are not apt to be as fresh and
sweet as they should.

MUDDY TRACK FOR
READVILLE RACES

READVILLE, Mass. September I. -
Showers and threatening weather in the
early part of the day caused considerable
doubt in the minds Of officials as to
whether the pacing division of the blue
ribbon event OF the turf in this country,
the American derby. would be run off at
the Readville mile track this afternoon at
the second days grand circuit meeting.
The $4,000 prize. although not as great
as that which was divided among the
contestants In yesterdays great race.
brought out a list off entries fully as
large as that of yesterday, and created as
much interest. The race is at the same
distance. one mile and a half, and the
handicaps range from the 2.07 to the 2. Is
mark. The Eel, owned by F. w. En-
tricksen of Tavistock, Ont. on the 2.05
mark. is the scratch horse, and owing to
her good showing on the circuit this sea-
son is picked by many to finish well UP
among the leaders.
The horses on the 2.16 mark, however,
who have almost 500 feet less to run
than the scratch horse. are accorded the
best chance of winning.

GIRL PREVENTS JAIL DELIVERY
SHERIFF'S SISTER HOLDS THEEE
MEN AT BAY.
Drives Desperate Criminals Back
Into Cells-They Had Sawed
Way to Liberty.

I.AWRENCEBURG, Ind, September l..
Miss Alice White. the sixteen-year-old
sister OF Sheriff White, prevented a Jail
delivery here yesterday by arming her
self with revolver and holding three
desperate men at bay until help reached
her and the escaping prisoners were safe
ly locked in separate cells.
Sheriff White was temporarily absent
She descended and was soon convinced
where Tides Negley. George Griffin and
Edward Mitchell were confined.
She tiptoed into the jail corridor, and
saw the men at work with a file on the
bars of window overlooking the jail
yard.
Two OF the bars had been sawed in two
and the men were at work on third,
which would let them to liberty.
Miss White hurried back to her broth
er's room, obtained his revolver and. hur-
rying out into the yard, confronted the
prisoners just as they were getting out
Of the window. Leveiing the pistol at
them she ordered them back and said
that she would shoot the first one who
moved another inch toward her.
The girl called for help, but was un-
heard. She kept the revolver on the Win
dow for fully ten minutes. when Sheriff
White returned, and running to her, ask
ed her what was the matter.
After she had explained he went into
the jail. while she remained on guard
on the outside, and removed the three
men to other cells.
Miss White did not appear to think she
had performed brave act, and when
the story got out and her friends began
to congratulate her she seemed rather
bored over the incident.

ENGLISH TEAM ARRIVES.
Challengers for Davis Cup Hopeful
of Winning Here.

NEW YORK, September John c..
Parke, c. p. Dixon and w. C. Crawley.
the challenging team of Great Britain for
the Dwight F. Davis International cup,
arrived in this country yesterday. They
came as passengers aboard the Kronprinz
Wilhelm, and all appeared TO be in the
best of spirits and ready for the prelimi-
nary tie matches against the American
team. Because of his having played in
this country last year as the teammate
and partner of NJ J. G. Rtche, the
captaincy of the present challenging trio
has fallen upon Parke, and the clever
young Irishman was willing to talk about
the chances Of the team winning the right
to challenge the Australians for their
holding of the world-farnous trophy
1t had been hoped, he stated that Eng
lands four-time champion. Arthur w.
Gore, would be able to take place on
the present team Business, however.
prevented, as was the case with NJ J. G.
to shirk the trip because of the seasick-
ness which he experienced crossing the
Atlantic ocean last year.
Capt. Parke believes that the team,
on the whole. is above the standard Of
that of a year ago, as both Dixon, who
is an old player returned to form, and
Crawley have shown splendidly In all OF
the English tournaments this season.
capt. Parke Still retains the irish
championship, and as University of
Dublin man has captured several other
honors during the year. He is thirty
five years of age. Like Grawley, who is
thirty years Of age and an old Oxford
man. he plays an all-around game chiefly
depending on his passing and his placing.
Crawley has appeared In many of the
English finals this year, and at the famous
Brighton tournament last autumn won
the cup as his personal property. Dixon.
thirty-seven years of age. Is distinctly
base line player, and has held the
Cinque Ports championship three con-
secutive years. Because of the strength
of his back court game Dixon and Craw-
ley will probably pair for the doubles.
while the singles viii engage Parke and
Crawley. Capt Parke said that such an
arrangement was not final, as 1t some
what depended upon the form shown by
the men in their preliminary practice

the American team was that he regarded
