Whole Wheat Bread is Most Nutritious.
Whole wheat bread and milk has
fine building qualities, and no mother
need worry if her child has only that
for breakfast.
Any and all of these cereals are
most important. Thoroughness in
cooking regulates very largely the
digestibility. Poorly cooked cereals
are not only less palatable, but may
cause indigestion and be really harm
full.
Here is where the fireless cooker
should be used, and it is hardly nee
essary now, since it is so well known,
to say that a small one for cooking
cereals should be in every house.
Recent government tests have re-
ported the majority of the ready-to-
eat brands as thoroughly cooked.
Predigested foods are not neces-
sary to the average healthy persons,
since they are better off for doing
their own normal work of digestion !;
others should consult a competent
physician in this selection of break.

too young to think of marrying and

any other girl to marry you. ~ Con-
suit your father about that. (3) Per
