WHAT CHILDREN SHOULD EAT

The best meats for children of
all ages are crisp bacon, broiIed
an ] roas lie =, NIB, mu on chick
en-, and white fish If meat broths
are used, it should be remembered
that they are valuable chiefly as
stimulants and contain very little
food substance
Between the fifth and tenth
years the diet should still include
large amount of milk New
foods are gradually added until
the child is eating practically the
same food as the adults of the
family. A we'll mixed diet, includ-
ing a reasonable amount of vegc-
tables and we'll ripened fruits, is
always desirable. Individual pre-
ferences cannot always be over
come, but careful training will do
much toward cultivating taste
for all kinds of food.
In the adolescent period the
large amount Of food needed makes
it important that it be of an easily
digested kind, simple, and rich in
protein and mineral salts. The
average active boy of IA will need
lQuite as much food during he
day as a grown man of sedentary
habits.
Egg lemonade, made with two
yolks to a glass, is a valuable adj
dition to the diet of the girl in
her teens il she is pale and under
nourished.- Miss Cora E. Binzel, in

POST OFFICE RECEIPTS

veIopment of Business in October

Chalmers Barbour Wood and Ernest
Edward Anderson are quite the proud
postmaster and assistant postmaster
now. Because on figuring up the
books and adding a lot of columns of

covered that Wednesday was the rec
ord, high water mark, cash day in
the history of the popular Phoenix
stamp emporium.

money taken in here in one twenty
four hour shift. And if it hadn't
been that big order of stamps had
to be pre- cancelled, so delaying de-
livery until yesterday, the receipts
would have gone somewhat over
81, 700.
we are booming business, that's
the only way I can explain it We do
not offer bargains, or give premiums,
but there is a sort of solid value
to stamps and stamped envelopes,

ALFRED HENRY LEWIS

| The untimely death OF Alfred Henry
Lewis. in the midst OF q very busy
career. removes One OF the most pic.
turesque OF the newspaper writer's oi
the day. Mr.. Lewis was only fifty-five
and had reason to hope ard expect al
least twenty years more OF active life
Had he been spared SO long. there is
every likelihood that he would have ad
ded materially to the very large ac-
complishments that were his during
the comparatively brief period of his
literary life.
At one time Mr.. Lewis was a door,
keeper In the House of Representa-
tives at Washington. though he was
doing some newspaper work on the
side. He was also gaining some expert
ence and acquaintance with public
men that served him In good stead
later on. He. was noted for his plain
language at all times. and it was not
unheard OF for him to play the role of
the Irish servant girl. by informing
visitors who asked for members of the
House that the members said, "Tell
'em say I'm not In"
Mr. Lewis's ability as writer is
well known. and as a story teller he
was famous. 1t Is said that on oc-
casion he had the honor OF keeping
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle entertained
far into the night with his inimitable
stories. Some OF these he committed
to print. though they lost much of
the charm Of his dialect. His wolf
Vile" stories are among the Western
sketches that will probably live.
Unfortunately. Mr.. Lewis allowed
himself to be dragged into the mire
and mud Of partisan journalism. He
was for some time at the head OF the
Washington bureau of The New York
Evening Journal. Some OF the matter
that he produced at this time perhaps
did some good, but no doubt his ad-
mirers. now he is dead, would be glad
II they could pass over some OF the
partisan writing that he turned out.
But It will be forgotten, as practical
ly all daily journalism is forgotten.
Mr.. Lewis's fame will rest upon his
stories, eighteen volumes Of which he
produced in fifteen years, nearly all
OF them good.

Does the War Prove christianity q
Fa,luref' ',at

In the January Woman's Home
Companion Charles E. Jefferson, pas
tor of Broadway Tabernacle. New
York City, writes an interesting war
article in which he comments as fol-
lows on the question as to whether
this war proves Christianity q fail
ure: ~: -
III someone says that the claims of
the Church have all been shattered,
the reply Is that the Church. makes
no claim except on conditions that
must be met. It promises no vic
tories except to hearts that surren-
der, 1t predicts no paradises until
men have In them the mind Of Jesus.
Christianity Is an invitation. II the
invitation 10 not accepted. it can do
no mighty works. Christianity is a
revelation Of the heart Of God. II
men refuse to become like him, the
world remains in darkness. There is
no failure then In the Christian relig-
Ion. The failure lies with the znen
who refuse to receive It., If Europe
had been Christian this war yyou,I 4
never have been. The agony OF Eu-
rope gives new point to the question:
How shall we escape II we neglect
30 great salvation?' It, illustrates
the meaning Of Christ's figure Of the
man who was foolish enough to build
upon the sand. 1t pours q blazing
light around he Apostles great de-
claration-"There is none other name
under heaven given among men,
whereby we must be saved."s

county. Ca. are outrageous and those
guilty OF the crimes committed should
be brought TO Justice, and given the
full penalty OF the law. There has been
entirely too many homicides In this
section OF the State recently. and It is
time for halt to be called. Never a
week passes but there is some horrible
murder committed. or some other
crime committed almost as bad.
According to this story of the Kill
ling OF these two negroes. there seems
to have been absolutely no justifica-
tion for the deed. Whiskey and the
passions aroused by the drinking and
carousing Of some white men, seem to
have caused the killing Of two neg
roes and the serious whipping of an
other.
Let the authorities ferret out the
truth OF this matter. and bring the
guilty parties to Judgment. The re-
sponsibility for this double killing and
It's attendant shooting should be fixed,
and those who have taken the law in
to their own hands taught that there
is some respect for law and order
left. and that human lie cannot be
taken with impunity. II the white men
who were engaged in this affair are
not guilty as this article states. they
should demand an Investigation and
clear their community of tho ata'n
that has beeM placed upon It by the
reports going out about this affair. At
any rate an investigation should be
made.
