Jesus when talking with the Jews
of His day took occasion to call at

the wilderness of their ancestors and
then likened Himself to the mama.
That, when eaten served to nourish

Christ's gospel are free to all. These

AT WHOSE DOOR THE BLAME7
Nearly 100000 Quarts Of Rum
Shipped to the ozark Continent
Debauchery TO Follow.

A few months ago the steamer Graf
Waldersee of the Hamburg-American
line shipped nearly 100000 quarts Of
rum for the Dark Continent" This
Is said to be the largest export from
Boston in years. 1t is stated that
much Of the rum for Africa usually
goes by sailing vessels, but they were
so nearly out of the poison over there
that a quicker transit was demanded.
Somebody is responsible for the de-
bauchery Of body and soul that will
follow this shipment. Who is it? The
manufacturers and the government
must share in the woe pronounced
upon him who giveth his neighbor
drink" and so must every Christian
man and women of this enlightened
continent who does not use his or
her influence to prevent the manu-
facture and sale of the deadly poison.

WHAT CHILDREN SHOULD EAT.

From birth to the age of nine

made from cereals, milk and gelatine
may be given.
At the age of one year milk, Cruel

chicken and mutton.
From one to one and fourth years,
the above, with rice, bread and apple
baked or apple sauce.
From one and fourth to one and
half, add bread and butter and ripe
peaches,
At one and half years add to the
above baked potato and orange juice.
From one and half to two and a
half, increase the variety of similar
foods.
From two and half to three and a
half, young fresh peas, beans, squash
and once or twice a little chicken,
mutton chop, beefsteak or roast of
beef.
From three and a half to five years,
Eggs and meat on alternate days and
light desserts of tapioca, custard and
gelatine.
From five to seven years a greater
variety, holding to the foods before
mentioned.
From seven to eleven, any of the
earlier foods, but more especially the
substantial ones. This is the time to
cultivate taste for all wholesome
foods, though not many kinds should
be eaten at the same time,
During the ages of eleven to four

girls and boys. Girls need about a

age. Boys at this age are excessive
