Awakening Interest of Child.

In my own nursery there were certain
1ocks of ducks and geese impersonated by
the bread which floated In the milk or by
the cubes of toast on the plate. and the
child who ate them was In turn hungry
fox or a marauding hawk who swooped
down upon the prey. Or the milk was q
river which had to be swallowed in order
to permit the hero or heroine to escape
from the pursuer. who was variously
giant. wild animal. or bad fairy. Some
times we did not resort these expedients.
but kept some specially absorbing tale for
meal times, and in the interest awakened
by this the food was eaten almost uncon-
sciously and without struggle or argument
The practice recommended in serving the
adult invalid's meals-of making them as
attractive as possible-shouId not be neg
lected IN the child's case. Quaint and
comical fancies appeal to him as they
would not to an older person. and series
of surprises may be planned-the food con-
cealed or masked in some way and an effort
put forth to make the meal times some
thing to be anticipated instead of strain
