They are naturally leaners, imitators,
copiers, and it Is easy for them to de-

One of the greatest decisions that a
human being could ever have is that

Raisin Bread.

Incorporated with bread raisins con-
stitute a valuable diet and help out
the meat problem. 1t is stated that
the raisin contains nearly per cent
protein and over IS per cent carbohy-
drates and therefore is a very i'm
portant energizing food. For invalids
and children raisin bread is inyalu-
able, says Life and Health. The sim
plieity of the loaf makes it an ideal
substitute for the lard, butter, sugar,
egg, cream and citron laden cake. II
is therefore an important addition to
the domestic menu. and the woman
who has her chiidren's health at heart
will see that at each baking two or
three loaves are well filed with raj
sins, kneading them In just before the
loaves are put into the pans.
