Manage Carefully the Nervous Child

Children are not all little animals"
Some have such keen sensibilities,
such acute imaginations, such tenn
ing little brains that they should be
treated with all the thoughtfulness
and consideration given to adults of
the same tendencies.
Such children have to be tenderly
and constantly watched, and their de-
linquencies met with an amount OF
sympathy that gains and holds their
confidence.
Those children who are scolded
and punished for the least delinquent
cy become hardened in wrong doing
or demoralized by fear. In the latter
case, demoralzed is certainly not too
strong a term for the results which
follow injudicious punishments.
A nervous child becomes so afraid
of doing wrong that at last he loses
the power of discerning between

Steel Caps IN
Modern Warfare
BY GARRETT P. sERvIss.

One of the most interesting conse.
quences of the altered method OF
warfare as it is now exemplified on
the western battle line in Europe is
the revival of ancient and medieval
armor for the heads of the combat
ants. How closely these iron pots,
which have now become steel pots,
without much change of form, re-
semble the old time headgear Of bat
tie may be clearly shown by COM
pairing them with specimens dating
from the fifteenth, sixteenth and sew
enteenth centuries,
1t is evident that the old makers
of these things had covered the
ground SO completely that virtually
nothing was left to be added when
twentieth century armor makers
were suddenly called upon to enter
the same field OF invention. As far
as general shape was concerned, the
latter found nothing to invent; they
had only to go to military museum
and initiate what they found there.
In one respect only do the modern
helmets have any notable advantage
over their ancient predecessors, and
that is III the superiority of the metal
OF which, they are composed We
have learned how to make steel more
resistant than the iron and imperfect
steel formerly used, and possibly
something may be saved in weight.
But at the same time, the blows dealt
by modern weapons are harder and
more penetrating.
Armor Of Ancients Would Be More
Burden Than Protection Now.
So true is this that armor for the
whole body, such as the knights of
old wore, would be far more OF an
encumbrancc than a protection in
these days. 1t is only the head that
can be effectually shielded, and that
because in the deep trenches now
used high-powered projectilcs can
not directly reach their aim.
Shrapnel and hand-bombs are the
weapons employed, and the fragments
shot down into the trenches from
their explosions do not possess a
momentum too great to prevent their
being warded off by steel helmet,
especially when, as must most COM
monty happen, the blow dealt is a
slanting one.
One Of the 1915 models has no rim
at all, SO that it can afford no pro-
lection except to the skull. This is
probably designed to save weight, but
the other forms, which have rims,
look as If they would be more ef-
fective, while the increase in weight
cannot be very serious. Inasmuch
as no prejectile can reach soldiers
hidden in a narrow trench unless it
descends in an almost vertical line
from above, it would seem as il the

Preparing
Canned Foods

Heat timed fish in the can; it saves
the washing of a saucepan and no one
likes to wash dishes in which fish
hive been cooked.
To thoroughly heat the contents of
small can of salmon >or tuna fish,
cover it well with water and let this
come to a boil and boil for fifteen
minutes. You can open it conven-
iently by wrapping towel about the
sides of the can, or you can put it
under the cold water faucet minute,
which will cool the surface of the can
without lowering the temperature Of
the interior. This same method ap-
plies to canned I ork and beans and to
most of the vegetables, especially
those that you do not wish softened
by second cooking.
Some vegetables are very much i'm
proved by second cooking. The
French method of serving canned
peas is to turn the contents of can
into a colander and let cold water
run through it, then put the peas in a
sauce pan with lump of butter, two
lettuce leaves, the center of an onion
and a trifle of sugar, and simmer
gently until the onion is soft 1t is
sometimes necessary to add a little
water to stock.
Canned tomatoes are often I'M
proved by recooking with a small
onion and a/bay leaf.
Canned meats are generally served
cold, but they may be easily heated
without recooking, which is not de-
sirable. For instance, the whole
tongues that come in cans can be
heated by keeping the can and con-
tents in boiling water for half an
hour, and served with either a vim
aigrette or tomato sauce.
