childrsn and Baby Talk.

Do you encourage baby talk in your
children? If you do you are making
a great mistake, according to v. NJ.
Hillyer, the well known educator. Here
is what Mr.. Hillyer has to say on the
subject In his book, Child Trainings"
"The mlspronunciation of words, due
to inability to articulate or more
usually to incorrect hearing, may be
amusing and delightful on account Of
Its simple naivete, but 1t should be
corrected and. above all, should not be
initiated by the parent or teacher. 90
and little may be cunning in three
year-old, but 1t is silly for grownup
to use such expressions in addressing
the three-year-old, like talking pigeon
English to Chinaman, but what is
worse, 1t gives an incorrect model Cor
the child and thus prolongs the time
he will take to speak correctly. Pre-
cision in the pronunciation of ones La
tive tongue is always delightful at any
age and an earmark Of the well bred"

Tom said that II he would leave it

"Busby's prepared milk food Is made
Of the best buttermilk that can be pro-
cured In the market. The flavorlng

shores of Hudson bay by the Indians
Its ivory wilderness is obtained not
from any deleterious ingredients, but
is distilled from myriads of white roses
grown on the Busby farm under the SUI
sperintendence of graduate of an ag-
ricultural college, The fatty sub
stances used In the food are obtained
from the blubber OF walruses shipped
onstrains running on the Ice OF Bering

the delivery OF the blubber In the best
condition at the milk factory.

when seven months old weighed only
twenty ounces. After taking bottle
Of Busbys milk he gained so much In
one night that In the morning his
mother mistook him for the five-year-
old son of her next door neighbor and
sent him to his supposed home with Il
lump Of sugar. At the end Of year,
having drunk 200 bottles Of Busby's,
he had gained pound II day.
Benny Harkaway. who weighed
only two pounds at BIRTH was blown

might have heard from his advertise

Like many watches Of the time this
was made with three cases, so that the
owner might use the same timepiece
for many occasions by taking or case
after case. The outer case of this
watch was made Of snakeshin orna-
mented with gold. q.
1t was believed that the owner wore
this outer case when he rode in tho
chase or went to battle, 50 that the
works and inner cases might be pros

life around the castle he would wear
the second case Of simple gold, while
on state occasions he would strip the
cases down to the last, since 1t was
jeweled and highly ornate.--New York

HOW TO USE FISH
IN LENTEN SEASON
BY RlppY BYE.

Fish contains valuable nutrients and
is usually an economical food. 1t Is,
however, deficient in materials which
yield heat and muscular power.
In making out menu with fish as
the important dish, the housewife is &C.
customed to add potatoes, rice or
bread; and usually provides a sauce
for the fish made with eggs; or uses
hard boiled eggs to garnish the dish.
TO FRY FISH use plenty of olive
oil or pork drippings. Fry small fish
in flying basket, large fish in plenty
of fat in spider
TO BOIL FISH wrap firmly in a
piece Of cheesecloth, plunge into hard
boiling water, then simmer until the
fish is flaky.
TO BROIL FISH rub with olive oil,
butter or dripping, season With pep.
per and salt; broil the skin side first,
turn once, broil the flesh side, add.
ing more fat to make fish brown we'll.
