The Child at Table.

The table is the ideal place for fam
lily interchange of thought, and the
children who are old enough to come
to the table should be encouraged to
take part in the conversation. One
good result of this is that it helps to
keep the child from eating too fast.
However, the children's chatter, in
many homes, is most annoying when
guests are present. In one home it
was made the rule that the children
might take part in the conversation
when guests were present, provided
the children could contribute some
thing of interest concerning the sub
ject under discussion. This taught the
children to listen carefully to what was
being said. This, in itself, is of I'M
told advantage to the child, for, in
home where people with bright ideas
concerning all the questions of the
day gather around the table, the gen.
eral conversation is of great educa-
tional value to the child. The child
cannot fail to become good con-
versationalist with this early train
ing.

What is the Cause of Rheumatism,

(By VALENTINE MOTT PIERCE. NJ. d.

Ever since Scheele, in 1915, discov-
cred that uric acid was present in the
system, scientific men have been max
ing experimental investigations and it
is the almost universal opinion of our
best medical men that the presence of
uric acid in the system in excess is the
cause of rheumatism and govt. When
the urate salts are precipitated out of
the blood into the solid tissue-structure
the person suffers from govt or rheu-
matism in the muscles and joints, or
suffers from lumbago and pain in the
hack muscles. The first aim of the suf-
ferer should be to get rid of the uric
