The ChiIdren's Breakfast.

The deplorable fact that thousands
of children in our public schools come
there day after day without proper
breakfasts, is indisputable. The ex-
treme poor are in a measure pardon
able; but what of the hundreds of
careless mothers who do not realize
what proper diet for a child should
be? child sent off to school after
breakfast of a cup of coffee and
often bakers bun, is not prepared
to cope with his lessons or is not sup
piled with food to furnish physical
energy. A dish of good breakfast
food with milk or thin cream, some
stewed fruit or fresh, a slice or two
of well prepared toast, with an egg
when the breakfast food is of a light
variety, a cup of milk or cocoa, makes
a good breakfast for a hearty, grow
ing child A good rule with some chill
dren who refuse to eat, is to refuse
to let them go to school on the days
they cannot eat.
Rice with cream and sugar makes a
delightful breakfast dish. Baked ap-
pies with cream, stewed prunes or
any dried fruit is always wholesome
In cold weather the breakfasts are
heartier; an occasional chop with
creamed potatoes. AS a rule, however,
meat once a day is amply sufficient. If
hot cakes are enjoyed there are none
that quite take the place of the crispy
brown waffle. 1t is much more easily
digested than the ordinary griddle
cake.
Another evil to be avoided with a
childs breakfast, is hurry. Let the
meal be eaten without haste, so that
it may be properly digested.
a hurried, nervous child is almost
sure to have Indigestion. The moth
er who does not care enough about
the feeding of her child TO get up in
time TO see that it is properly done,
who cares more for the card table and

Senator McLaurin.

Imbued with intensely southern spir-
it, but actuated by fair-minded ard
patriotic impulses in his stand upon
public questions. the late Senator Nc
Laurin represented the better type of
southern statesman in the upper
house of congress, His activities in
behalf of the south and the nation, his
prominence in the counsels of his
party associates. his breadth of view
relative to the progress and the pol
icy of the southern states made him
a national legislator of serviceable &C
tivity.
The death of Mr.. McLaurin will be
felt as a distinct deprivation not only
on the part of Mississippi, but of the
south generally, and his personal
traits, as well as the scope of his
views, will make his passing an event
of deep regret to the members of tho
senate, irrespective of party. He lived
and worked earnestly.

Size of the National House.

The members of the national house
of representatives at the present time
number 391. The first house of rep
resentatives contained 65 members.
The growth in size of the body after
each decennial census is shown by
the figures concerning reapportion-
ment published in the Daily News al
manac for 1910, which has just been
issued. The growth has been espe-
cially rapid in recent years. After
the seventh census, taken in 1850 the
house had 237 members. The num-
Der was increased but slightly after
the following census: In 1870 the
number grew to 293; in 1880, to 1872;
in 1890, to 357; and now, under the
apportionment based on the census
of 1900. the number is only a little
short of 400.
The ratio of representatives to popu-
lation under the first apportionment
was one to 10000. At the present
time the ratio is one representative
to 1914 1872 inhabitants.
Presumably the house after the next
apportionment will be even larger
than it is now, unless public opinion
is educated to demand the contrary.
The members of congress are tempt
ed to make the number large to pro
vide as many places as possible for
ambitious statesmen. But the result
of yielding to this impulse is to Sc
cure body that is unwieldy because
of its size and therefore inefficient
The larger the body, too the greater
the expense, for members now receive
a salary of $500 year each.
Not only should the further growth
in the size of the national house of
representatives be checked, but an
effort should be made to reduce the
number Of members. A house Of 300
members is large enough. Congress
should be prevailed upon to adopt
ratio that will keep the size of the
house of representatives down to that
figure.

IN ADVISORY CAPACITY ONLY
on Public Expenditure Are
Well Defined.

Just at time when Great Britain
is Witnessing a bitter struggle over
the precise place which the upper
house of the national legislature
shall play IL dealing with national
finance, with the weight of opinion
among constitutional authorities de-
cidedly in favor of the claims of the
commons and the ministry as over
against the lords, there is a contrary
movement in this country tending in
the direction of extending the powers
of the executive and the senate. The
formal reports of the secretary of the
treasury and the president indicate
a decided intention hereafter to play
d much more conspicuous and impor.
tant advisory role than heretofore in
controlling national expenditure, a
tendency that congress itself author
lied and made provision for in the
last sundry civil appropriation BILL
and that Mr.. Tawney. chairman of the
house committee on appropriations,
says was enacted ito concentrate in
the executive primarily the RESPONSE
bility for proposed drafts on the treas
ury, and to require of department
heads more thoughtful and careful
consideration of the annual estimates
before their transmission to con-
gress."
The new senate committee on pub
lie expenditure, of which Senator Root
is to be chairman and Senator Crane
a member, is not to supplant the pres
ent committee on appropriations, but
is to cooperate with it, in an ad.
visory way, on all matters involving
appropriations for the executive de-
partment of government, where the
ratio of increase is larger now than
in any other department. 1t will at
once set at work investigating the
merit or demert of recommendation
in the presidents message, which in
volve additional administrative ex.
pense, such as the recommended bu-
reau of health.

Frying in Deep Eat.

TRADE WITH CANADA LARGE
Dominion Is Developing Into One of
the Best Customers the United
States Has.

During the first ten months of this
year the United States sold to Canada
products valued at $154 100000 That
was almost 12 per cent of the total
exports of this country 1t was more
than twice as much as all it's South
American sales. The sales to Canada
exceeded by $26,000,000 those of the
corresponding ten months of 1908.
Manifestly here is a growing trade
and one worth preserving. The united
kingdom is the largest customer of
the United States, but while exports
to it have increased only $2000.000 in
four years, those to Canada have in.
creased $32, 100000.
The Canadian exports to the United
States for the ten months in question
were valued at S70,0000O0 One-ffth
of that was represented by lumber, an
article which Americans would buy
much more extensively if the tariff
allowed them to do So They would
also be more liberal consumers of Ca.
madam foodstuffs if it were permitted.
Here is an exchange of goods valued
at 1924 100000. The exchange be.
tween the United States and all Asia
did not quite come up to it. This great
trade has grown up without the fos.
tering care of governments. No sub
sides have been given to steamers tC
build it up. 1t has expanded in spite
of legislative obstacles. Canada is now
better consumer than France. In a
few years, if the insanity of a tariff
war shall not come on, it will be a
better customer than Germany
Canadians want American products
and Americans want those of Canada
The mutually profitable exchange OF
their commodities should not be sac
rifced

STILL OUR FRIENDS
Nc DANGER OF MlSUNDERSTAND
ING BY LATlN-AMERlCA.
Vigorous Policy Pursued by the Ad-
ministration Toward the Tyrant
ZeIaya Will Be Endorsed by
Our Southern Neighhors.

A good deal of nonsense is being
printed about the effect of the vigor-
Gus handling of Zelaya by the United
States upon the feeling of Latin-Amer-
lean countries toward the mighty re-
public which far exceeds in strength
all other nations of the Western hem
isphere. 1t is said that the course
pursued in Nicaragua is creating dis
trust and engendering i'll will which
must have bad effect upon American
trade and other American interests
in the countries of the new world
which speak Spanish or Portuguese.
This is sheer folly, and it is also
uncomplimentary to the real Latin
Americans of the Argentine, for eX-
ample, or Chile, or the white citizens
of Rio Janeiro, or the City of Mexico.
Is it to be supposed that such men of
affairs have any fellow feeling for
Zelaya, or any other despot in a Cen
tral American country inhabited al
most wholly by Indians and various
mixtures of the red and black and
white races? Argentina, Chile or Bra
I'll would make short work OF Such Il
nuisance as the Nicaraguan tyrant, if
their subjects were involved and their
treaty rights were violated, and the
scene of trouble were near their boun-
daries. Buenos Ayres and Rio ia
neiro, Santiago and Havana, do not
devote much attention to Central
America Their outlook it upon
Europe and the United States.
If this republic is ever distrusted or
feared in the countries of Latin-Amer-
lea which really count it will be for
some reason very different from the
dsciplining of such tyrant as Zt-
laya, or the regulation of an obstre-
porous little state like Nicaragua, mis-
ruled, torn by internal dissensions and
impossible to rely upon for interna-
tional good conduct. There is no dan
ger in little necessary police duty.
