What the Growing Child
Needs.

The appetite Of a growing boy is a
constant source of establishment to his
mother, and the ease with which he
consumes more food than the adult
members of the family convinces her
that his tastes are abnormal. She for
gets that in the second period Of rap
i'd growth that comes early In the
'''teens" Nature is making every effort
to build a perfect individual and needs
all the help she can get. She cannot
build without a wealth of material,
and SO every boy who is physically
more active than his father and mo
ther, who is using his brain for study
and growing rapidly besides, needs an
abundant supply Of food. What should
this food be? Should his diet be lin.
tied or his taste questioned? General
ly speaking, no.. He needs all kinds
Of food, and he generally Graves what
Lower coast gazette., 1913-12-27

he needs. He needs protein to build
a mans frame and he needs a larger
proportion of it than the average adult
requires. He also needs fat and
starches to furnish the heat and en-
ergy burned out in his eyer-active body
and to keep his tissues plump and
rounded. While he needs much pro-
tein, do not expect him to get it all
from meat. Indeed, it is much better
that no small part of this heterogeneous
food come from milk and eggs, cheese,
beans and peas. If he has plenty OF
these rich and relatively cheap foods
he will not crave meat so Unfortunately
as some growing boys do. The boy
needs a large quantity Of carbohy-
drates. That is why his demand for
bread and butter is limited only by the
supply at hand, and why he uses al
most as much butter as, bread. Let
him have all he wants. BY the pound
butter is expensive, but it is pure,
wholesome food, andd he can use 1t
readily. 1t will not make him i'll; quite
the contrary. And do not be afraid of
sugar and sweet foods. Sugar is a
+v,o oopoop+ro+od food Eivo him ran
DIV for dessert. He Graves it and his
craving is natural, not abnormal. The
boys instincts will lead him to choose
the all-around diet he needs. To limit
his choice to a few articles compels
him unconsciously to overuse the one
he likes the best. To regulate his diet
to the tastes or foods of his father or
mother is cruelty and will probably
result in an undernourished child. II
grown people wish to experiment on
new foods they have the right to dc
so, but they do not have the right tc
inflict their ideas Of what Is good fol
them on their growing children. Coco
food in variety and plenty of it is what
the child needs, and if it is provided
his taste will not be abnormal nor viii
his astonishing appetite result in more
than healthy rapid growth.

"Take One"

Miss Lyddon, a capable member Of

at the Old Ladies' Home, after a six

excited flutter Of welcome that she
failed to understand till she found she
was expected to solve a mystery.
tits my box" eagerly explained
Miss sophy Osborne, "my box from
California;! The card doesn't say who
sent it, but we thought perhaps you'd
know. The most beautiful oranges
and grapefruit! Dozens of them! Most
as big as melons! I haven't tasted
anything so good since the BURY Dan
jo' pears in the old garden at home"
Miss Lyddon's face lighted sudden
ly. Pears! Beurre d'Anjou pears!"
she exclaimed. miss Sophy, did you
ever put a basket of pears on the side

yield, l always did," admitted Miss
Sophy, wondering. "There'd be plen-

People seemed to appreciate them;
the workmen going BY would tuck one

She broke off and smiled reminiscent

about that basket; he often hadn't any

told me how mean he used to feel be-

instead of taking one, but he was so
hungry he couldn't help 1t. He owns
a ranch now, and l feel pretty sure"
'The poor, poor child!" broke In
Miss Sophy, pitifully. ITO think Of
his only having pears to stay his poor

didn't l know, and feed him up? Oh.
I never felt SO mean-how could ! ever
have said take one?' Tell me his

GERM LETTER SENT
To ANOTHER WEALTHY
WOMAN IN CHICAGO

Chicago, Oct 25.-Mrs. Julius Ros-
enwood, wife of a millionaire philaa-
thropist, has received letter, the
writer of which said it had been ex-
posed to mysterious disease germs,
according to Chief Postal Inspecto.
Stuart.
The letter to Mrs, Rosenwald was
similar to one received by Mrs. Frede-
rick NJ Steele, a wealthy resident of
Highland Park. 1t asserts that the
letter would breed 100000 malignant
germs and cause a disease only to be
cured by the writer, who demanded
$4,000 for his aid.
Stuart said third letter was sent
to a wealthy South Side woman whose
name was not disclosed. Investigation
of the letters convinced postal inspec-
tors that they were written and the
plot concocted by two persons. One
is believed to be a physician and
the other woman.

STEAMER WRECKED IN A
HAY FIELD IN NORWAY

The remains of an excursion steam
er may be seen in bayfield, three
hundred feet above the lake of Leo l,
in Norway, says a writer in the No
vember Wide World Magazine. This
oddly-placed wreck is the sole relic
of terrible landslide which took
place in 1906, when the whole side
& mountain suddenly slipped into the
lake raising a great wave over three
hundred feet high, which drowned ey-
erybody living along the shores, over
sixty people perishing. The steamer,
which was mored on the lake at the
time, was carried on the crest of the
wave over a perpendicular cliff and
deposited, as already stated, more
than three hundred feet above the
normal level of the water, over A
quarter of mile away from its an
chorage. 1t is torn and battered
wreck, every bit of woodwork has
been wrenched off, and the twisted
steelwork testifies to the force of the
wave which cast it ashore.
