CHILDREN AND BOOKS

1t does the child no harm to make
the acquaintance Of books which were
not written for children. In home
where the great books that have in
spired or amused successive genera
tlons are accessible an active-minded
child Is likely at some time to get
at them. If We want our children to
fall In love with the better kind of
books let US provide them with oppor-
Mnities for meeting such books with

look at it.
The frog was so real looking that it
was hard for Peter to remember. that
the frog wasn't really real at all!
And Peter had fallen asleep as he
had sat looking at his frog.

glad when you were given to me. was
simply delighted.

"Oh, it was just as though he had
cad my thoughts"
"Maybe he did" said the frog. "May-

"And how did you like being made

"Oh, liked it," said the frog. As

REACHES.

Reaches are believed to be responsible
In some instances for the conveyance Of
tuberculosis, diphtheria, typhoid fever,
tonsilitis, and possibly some other dis
eases.
They spread these diseases by carry
ing the organisms on their feet and In
their intestinal canals and disseminating
them over food supplies, books and other
articles in daily use.
They are especially abundant in I'M
clean kitchens. They appear at night
after the lights have been turned of
and overrun everything in the room.
This is especially true when crumbs and
other bits of food are left strewn about.
Reaches can be quickly, cheaply and
completely exterminated from houses by
the use of sodium fuorid This should
be spread with "a rubber powder, blower
on the floors near the walls and or
shelves in closets.
The powder does not suffocate the IN
sects, but sticks to their feet: They
clean it of with their mouths, some of
1t being swallowed and causing the death
of the insect. AS sodium huorid is poi
sonous to man in doses of a tablespoon
full or more care should be taken not to
spread 1t over articles that are to be
eaten.
