Proper God for Young Folks

The best of all foods for the young
growing boy or girl is milk. 1t is Of
ten a problem to get the child to take
enough and the mother must use all
sorts of devices to get them to take
the required amount. A pretty glass
or a cup will often appeal to the
small person and they will empty it
without protest. A transfer picture
pasted on the bottom of the glass to
see when the glass is empty is anoth-
er good method. Let them drink the
milk through straws. This lasts a
long time and will be enjoyed. A
and has proved great comfort to
both the mother and the child.
A good breakfast for a Sabotage
child is a dish of cooked cereal with
sugar and cream, a soft boiled egg,
bread and butter and a glass Of milk
or cocoa. If fruit is given it should
be subacid when there is cereal and
cream. Milk may be introduced in.
to the child in more ways than as a
plain glass of milk. There are GUS
tards, junkets, cornstarch buildings
and rice buildings, always wholesome
for desserts.
Eggs should be one of the foods
given daily, or every other day at
least, and see that they are never
cooked at a high temperature. A
fried egg is pernicious food for any
stomach unless it be proof against
dyspepsia.
Cultivate taste for olive oil in the
children while young. 1t acts as a
lubricant and, with cream and butter,
is most valuable food. Simple sal
ads with few drops of the oil may
be tried at first, increasing the amount
until they have acquired taste for it.
Whole-wheat bread, brown bread,
graham bread, oatmeal and rye are
all good breads to serve with little
white bread.
Green vegetables of all kinds
should be given in abundance, as the
child needs the mineral salts which
art found in them. Vegetables also
give bulk to the food. Onions, car
rots and spinach are all complexion
beautifiers, and the girl who eats
these often, sleeps ip a. well-ventilat-
ed room and has plenty Of outdoor
life will have a good complexion.
Condiments of all kinds, pickles
and spiced foods, tea and coffee
should never be given to the grow
ing child. Candy in small amounts
after a rood meal is not harmful and
all children crave sweets. 1t is bet
ter to give them the best rather than
allow them to buy inferior kinds, as
they often do when buying for them
selves. Exchange.

Special pans are best for bal-ing
sunshine, sponge, and angel cakes.
Those with removable springs that
hold the bottom and sides Of the pan
together are good These springs
extend about an incn beyond the pan
and when the par is inverted allow
free circulation of air around the
cake. The pan should never be oiled.
The cake will cling to the ran and the
air cells on the outside Of the cake
are not compressed buI the cake falls

New York, Nov. 3.-The records OF
the sixteen major league clubs dur.
inc the past baseball season present
some unusual and interesting fea-
lures. While these statistics are not
based upon the official league aver
ages. they conform closely to the au-
thentic percentages and for the pur-
poses of comparison are thoroughly
reliable being compiled, in many
cases from the official box-scores.
The records show that the Chicago
American League Club, winner OF the
world championship series led the
Junior organization in both the num-
Der of games won and the total num-
her Of runs scored. In no other de-
partnent did the White Sox hold the
premier position although the aver
age of the team was very high. Bos-
ton played the greatest number OF
games during the season due to five
tie contests. Detroit, which fin
ished fourth, led in hitting while the
Boston Red Sox held the opposing
teams to the lowest number of runs.
The figures also give a clear in
sight into the loose play of the Phil
adelphia Athletics, who finished In
last place. The Mackmen scored next
to the largest total of runs being but
thirty-three behind the Chicago club
in this respect and but twentythree
hits short of the Detroit record which
enabled the Tigers to win first place
in this department of the game. AS
an offset to this excellent offense,
however. the Athletics showed the

poorest defensive play of any club in
the American League. The Philadel-
phia team made the largest number
of errors; had the greatest number
of runners left on the bases and their
opponents scored more runs against
the team than against any other club
on the circuit.
In the National League the New
Y6rR Giants winners of the pennant
and losers of the world series, played
the most games, completing their full
schedule of 154 games with four tie
contests bringing the total up to 15S.
As was the case with the Chicago
White Sox, the pennant winning
combination in the senior organiza-
ton also scored the most runs, the
Giants record in this respect being
636. Cincinnati, however, piled up
the largest total of hits while the
Chicago Nationals perpetrated the
greatest number of errors. The
Boston Braves had the most runners
stranded on the bases during the sea-
son of 1917 and Cincinnati proved the
easiest to score runs against, as the
other seven clubs collected total of
GIL runs from the Reds in The 157
games played.
The Brooklyn Club, winner of the
1916 pennant, aside from its feat in
playing the largest of tie games,
failed to show the form of a year ago.
The Superbas made less runs than
any team in the league with the ex-
ception of Pittsburg; was third in to-
tai hits; made the third largest num-
Der of errors and was about at the
halfway mark in men left on the
bases and in runs scored by oppon-
ents.
