TESTIMONY OF A TRAVELLER.

One of the greatest explorers Of the
day is Mr.. A. Henry Savage Lander, a
grandson of Walter Savage Lander.
He has travelled in the Antarctic, in
Thibet, the Himalayas, Korea, MOngo-
LA, through the Dark Continent, and
has crossed South America at its wild
est part accomplishing one of the
most difficult expeditions ever made,
penetrating in a 13,750-mile journey
parts of Brazil that were regarded as
impossible. This latter feat through
g. semi-trOpical zone occupied one year
and half and was constantly attend
ed by hardShips and sufferings, in the
course of which for sixty days, while
shooting the rapids of the Arinos, the
party endured terrible privations, and
afterwards when food failed, starved
for sixteen days.
When asked how he has preserved
Immunity from sickness, exposed to
such varied climatic conditions, he re-
plies, "Fhe wonderful health | enjoy
is largely due to my temperate habits.
In all these journeyings neither he nor
has attendants took with them any
alcoholic spirits.

CHILDREN'S LUNCHES.

I wonder how many teachers and
parents realize that often the dull
pupil is either under-nourished or
really i'll.
The child, to do good work in
| school, should be started out in the
morning with wholesome, nutritious
breakfast, one which will stay by
until noon.
| Lack of appetite in the morning Is
more often the result of sleeping in
poorly ventilated rooms or too late
hours. The bad taste in the mouth in
the morning should not be thought
unworthy of attention.
A "grswn up" may miss meal
without evil effects or in fact with
good results, but a child who uses all
its energy in building tissue cannot
well omit a meal. Children are hun
cry more often than adults, because
their digestive processes are very ac-
tive. 1t is for this reason that lunches
are necessary for the child between
meals. The continuous lunching is
much worse than none at all, so that
discretion should be used to see that
the lunch is served not too near
meal
The food for growing children
should be simple and easy Of diges-
ton. Tea and coffee are not chill
dren's beverages; milk, cocoa and wa
ter will be found sufficient variety.
All highly seasoned foods, which
tend to unduly excite the digestive
juices, should be used only by those
who have lost the appetite Of child
hood and need a whip to stimulate
the digestive functions. Their con-
tinued use has been the cause of the
craving for strong stimulants.
A luncheon for the child should be
put up in such a way that it is at
tractive and will be appetizing.
Learn to pack box or basket neat
ly. Have plenty of cheap paper nap
kins, a package of paraffin paper, some
rubber bands, all very inexpensive.
and a supply lasting a year will cost
but little. A dinner taken from tin
pail packed carelessly, and in many
cases frozen on the way. is not the
kind Of food which will produce good
blood and clear brain work.
Variety is another thing which
should be studied. for children like
surprises better than grown ups" A
fig or a date or two, or even bit Of
candy hidden in the lunch, is a source
of keen delight to the youngster. Let
us never grow too old to forget our
own youth and youths desires.

Making Use Of ReIinion.

It may be believed that nearly all
men mean to give religion a place in
their lives Nothing, however, will
make life so miserable as our religion
in the wrong place. For it is one
thing to give it place, and another
thing to give it prominence, and yet
another to give it prominence. I'm
til we give it first place we shall be
wondering at every turn what to do
with out religion. 1t will raise more
problems than it solves. We imagine
that to put it first would turn life
upside down, when the fact is that it
is upside down already. We supect
it would revolutionize our life, where
as our lives are already in kind of
chronic revolution. Our duties now
are continually clashing, but when we
set Gods will and kingdom first, doing
it day at time, our duties seem to
glide into place and we have our first
taste of the order and peace of which
the soul is capable.

DOCTORS AGAINST ALCOHOL.
