happy mealtime. Perhaps the child
has done some little naughty thing
and is scoldad for it until he cries OF

spoiled. He needs that dinner He
cannot be happy if he is hungry or if
lie feels undue censure and he will be
cross or depressed all afternoon. Did
you ever indulge in weeping at meal
tine or allow yourself to become very
angry? II so, did you find your diges-
ton improved and did you have a
happy day? As it was with you, so it
IS with the child. It is a well known
physiological fact that anger and grief
interfere seriously with digestion. If
you wish to lay in your child a foun-
dation for Indigestion you can find no
more effective way.
1t is even worse to send child to
bed supperless. No one can be at his
best morally and spiritually unless he
is at his best physically. No child can
be improved morally by being injured
physically. To send a child away
from the table hungry or to send him
supperless to bed is a relic of bar
barism. It will not only fail to bring
good results at the time, but will lay
foundation of future misery and I'M
happiness. A happy bedtime and a
happy mealtime are the right of every
child.-Joseph Barclay in the Mothers
Magazine for October.
