FEED CHILDREN.
On Properly Selected Food. It Pay
Big Dividends.

If parents will give just little intel
ligent thought to the feeding of their
children the difference in the health of
the little folks will pay, many times
over, for the small trouble.
A mother writes: "Our children are
, all so much better and stronger than
they ever were before we made a
chang in the character of the food.
We have quit using potatoes three
times a day with coffee and so much
meat.
'Now we give the little folks some
fruit, either fresh, stewed, or canned,
some Grape-Nuts with cream, occa-
sionally some soft boiled eggs, and
some Postum for breakfast and sup
per. Then for dinner they have some
meat and vegetables.
at would be hard to fully, describe
the change in the children, they have
grown SO sturdy and strong, and we
attribute this change to the food ele-
ments that, l understand, exist in
Grape-Nuts and Postum.
"a short time ago my baby was
teething and had great deal of stom-
ach and bowel trouble. Nothing
seemed to agree with him until tried
Grape-Nuts softened and mixed with
rich milk and he improved rapidly and
got sturdy and well.'
There's a Reason"

Creek, Mich.

Kr1haNG AND EATING DEFER

To the Editor of The Courant:-
 After reading that open letter to the
 Connecticut Humane society published
 in sAThe Courant'' of November 20,
 about the stIdiotic Deer Law written
 by F. Powers of Westport, we were
 under the impression that that poor
 man was suffering from heart trouble brought on by worrying about the in humanity of the farmers or land own CTS to the deer; but since reading this other letter, written by Senator. George P Mclean, published in 'sThe Cour-
 ant of December A. we have come to
 the conclusion that it Is not his heart
 that is troubling him, but that it is + dust plain stomachache, caused by lack of good deer meat. Now, we are sorry indeed for him, as we do not see how he is going to get any, for surely the farmers will not fall over each other to hand him a piece after
 his attack upon them, and if the land owner is not allowed to sell his ven- ison he cannot get it at the market and unless he can down this "idiotic unrig ghteous, iniquitous, atrocious, out rageous, two-faeed, inhuInan deer law" there does not appear to be
 much hope for him, for certainly his condition must be critical.
 Tn his letter published November 20. he says that the deer are a vaIu- able asset to the state. but they have not been to the farmers, and we fail to see what value there is in them ex- lcept for the table. We agree that

FRENCH GIRLS LIVE

Nancy, France, Dec. Eighty young girls from Pont-a-M Mousson, from GerbevilIers, from Noneny. from Alsace and different parts of LOT raine are passing their exile here in Nancy, learning domestic economy in 5a building in which the Germans made cheap soup before the war.
 "How to live on e15 cents 3. day and have a little something over" is the essence of the problem the girls have to solve. Tn doing it they be- gin at the market, learning how to buy then the value and uses of what they have bought and how to get the most out of it.
 The work also includes designing, cutting and sewing.

ENGLAND SCARED BY
 LOWERED TEMPERATE

London. Dec 10-Strilxing contra- dietory opinions were expressed an a recent meeting of the Royal Sanitary Institute concerning whether the result Of the war. should be regarded as calamity or a blessing.
 The subject discussed was labelled !: ssThe National and Social Aspects of the Lowered Birth Rate.'' SoVhe of the speakers demanded that the gov ernment should take the matter in hand and do everything possible to encourage and popularize maternity. Others-though 1t should be stated they were in a minority-he cid that the fewer babies born. for sometime to come at least, the better it would be for the country. Two speakers may be cited as representative of these di- vergent views.
 Sir John Cockburn urged the need ! of greater inducements to raise the Dir rth-Pate. Maternity, he said, now involved too heavy a tax on the poor CT classes. He would have the gov ernment provide bonuses on a liberal scale for maternity and make a, sub- stantiaI reduction in the income taz for each child born. We need he declared, s'to revive the mediaeval view which regarded sterility as 3 curse.''
 l Dr. Dunlop boldly took the Mathu- sian view. He looked forward. he declared, with cheerfulness, to a. fur ther reduction of the birth-rate. The enco 4ragement Of 1sparental pru- denee;' among the poor was urgently needed at the present moment. He foretoId a serious rise in the ,deatE rate and great poverty in the nex' l year or two, and if the thoughtfu i scientific people were so blind thai they did not speak out. it would be far better for many children that they had never been born. The only hope
 of avoiding great hardship in the frs
 few years after the war was by 2
 very sharp fall in the birthrate now

they are beautiful creatures, and so are other animals that we slaughter. One morning I looked out of my win day and saw one looking at me with great beautiful innocent-Iooking eyes, but when later I went into my garden and saw that he had breakfasted on my vegetables did not think he was half as innocent as he looked. But the dear deer must eat and so must the dear farmers, and ali of them Gods creatures.
 Let us not suppose fef moment that the farmers and land owners are the only ones that shoot deer, for there are ten deer shot. by trespassers who roam over the farmers premises and destroy fences and leave the re- mains of many deer after taking what they want, and we would like to ask in all common sense and fairness, wh o is entitled to venison for his table if not the farmer who has fed them 1?
