GODS ANGELS.

Sometimes. in walking down the
street,
chance to meet
a face that shines with smiles SO
bright,
'Tis heavens own reflected light.
Sometimes when the skies are dull
and gray,
I lear one say:
BE patient, for the sun will shine
Again oh, voice divine.
"Oh. We who walk with smile and
son
Life's ways along;
Whoever words Of comfort speak
To cheer the sad and help the weak!
'Ye are Gods Angels in a world
SO full OF toll and sin and strife
Here Night her banners hath I'M
furled--
But ye como bringing light and ltfe!"

+ Dear Social Cornerites:-Severa
times I've been asked to join you but

If you have mother be sure to re-
member her in some way on next
Sunday. No doubt we all can say.
"All that am, 1 owe to my mother"

use of the different kinds of food and
he soon became much interested to
know in which class each food be-
longed.
Each child requires a little different
proportion of each kind of food, as the
stomach and bowels do their work diff
ferently in each.
One of our children would be Sc
verely troubled with constipation UNI
less she ate very coarse bread, such
as bran or graham or coarse corn meal,
each meal. The others required very
little, but we gave them a little each
day, but not at every meal She also
was very fond of soups and broths in
large quantity, SO made my soups and
broths very condensed and added more
hot water to hers. so each received the
same amount of nutrients.
One child can take only small
amount OF acid fruits; if Strawberries,
we allow her only one large one at a
meal and other acids in proportion,
but always give her some of every
kind we happen to have.
Their desserts are usually fresh
fruit, or the dried fruits, or cooked fruit
of any kind, chocolate or sugar, ETC.
We use all kinds of sandwiches,
meat or egg or vegetable, or fruit or
sweet sandwiches of jelly, etc.
Each child has a teaspoonful of olive
oil each day, beginning while they are
small; then they are willing to take it
We use cereals mostly in bread, but
when served as cereal we use no sugar
on it, only milk or cream. We think
it much better to give the sugar OF

or drink.

them thoroughly all green's or vegeta-
