Theodore Roosevelt today replied to
question asked by mother of Z chill
dren, whose father is out of a job and
who are likely to grow hungry before
he gets another, by telling her to
keep on being "a mother"
Mrs. McChonney's letter in part
is as follows:
do you advocate raising children
for county charges, the poorhouse or
what? am a mother of Z children
and feel that l have a right to ask.
Perhaps you have never had the ex-
perience of raising z children on $50
a month and then suddenly losing the
position and have your house threat
ened with foreclosure"
The colonel replied: Eve are, any
of us, liable to run into hard luck, but
that does not by any manner Of
means lessen our duties to ourselves
and society. am sorry for Mrs.
McChOnney, who seems to be having
a hard time through no fault of her

The fertile plains of Esdraelon
Between Tabor and Carmel lie
Mountains that lift their broad backs
high
Above the river of Kishon!
The valley like a great eye glows
AS mountain wind across it blows;
And burning blaze of Orient sun,
Quickens the heart Of Esdraelon.
Beneath the palms Of Esdraelon
The pilgrim feet from lands afar,
From temple, mosque, or rich bazar,
Have rested until day was done.
Thousands Of voices rose in prayer
Upon the almond scented air
Until the Rose Of heaven-the sun
Its petals dropped on Esdraelon.
The glowing fields Of Esdraelon
Once trembled beneath warrior-feet:
Over its breast-to trumpet heat
Marched chosen few of Gideon,
The slowly-sweeping Caravans
Pitched their cool tents beneath its sun:
The soldiers Of Napoleon
Sought Egypt over Esdraelon!
Ye lilied plains Of Esdraelon-
Immortalized by all the years
That bear mems deepest hopes and fears
To all the living and UNBORN
MY soul goes back to DRINK Of thine
Thou deathless vale Of Palestine!
My heart would find Gods changeless
Son
My pilgrn-feet touch Esdrason!

Summer Suggestions

SeasOnable Advice on tn
Health of Children in
Hot Weather

No one requires as much food in
Summer as in winter. Do not over
feed children during the hot weather.
Serve only the lighter and more easily
digested foods, and make sure the
bowels keep normally active.
Most of the troubles to which chill
dren seem particularly susceptible in
summer have their origin in con-
stipated condition. The first care OF
the mother should be to see that the
children are regular. At the first
sign Of a disposition to neglect this
important function a mild laxative
should be administered promptly.
Cathartics and purgatives should
never be given to children as they
are harsh and violent in their action
and tend to upset the entire system.
The combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin. sold in drug stores
under the name of DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, is now very generally
used to correct stomach and bowel
trouble and is especially adapted for
children. being pleasant to the taste,
