the $1,000 loans of some OF the small
boroughs and townships.
Exclusive Of the big county loan in
Allegheny, there will be twelve loan
elections for more than n million dol

County loans would involve more than
S5 900 900 in various parts of the
state, while there are numerous mu-

SANAT0RIUM FOR CHARLES

Budapest, Nov. 7.--(By A. P.)-
Former Emperor Charles Of Austria.
Hungary and his wife, who werc last
reported to be at Galatz, Runania,
awaiting the British light cruiser Car
diff to carry them to exile on the Island
Of Madeira, were believed today to
have passed out of the Danube into
the Black Sea, on their way to the
Bosporus.
With Charles being carried to the
island in the Atlantic Ocean, 40 miles
from the Moroccan coast, the National
Assembly at q special session yesterday
enacted into law a bill dethroning him
and ousting the entire Hapsburg dy-
nasty.
Permission hos been given by the
Portuguese Government for the dcpor-
tntion of Charles and his family to
Madeira. They will probably reside at
Funchal, where living quarters are
available in the wing of an unfinished
sanatorium, abandoned by German
financiers because of a disagreement
with the Portuguese Government.

between what they ought to have and
what they want. The result Is OF
course sturdy. healthy youngsters. A
few American families are now fol-
lowing this system, but the most as
yet from necessity; others from indif-
ference allow the children to eat with
the family. where they usually have
what they cry for, for the sake of
peace at the sacrifice Of manners. NOR
ais and physique.
The average housemother cannot
run two sets Of meals and serve at
the same time the needs of the young
and the desires Of the old.
One may restrict the diet of the
elders to conform to the food which
should be given the young for the
two meals of the day, having dinner
at noon, or let the little people have
supper by themselves earlier than the
evening dinner hour.
Children under five should never be
given food not suited to their age
and condition. The problem then Is
to serve meals which will be suitable
for the whole family for breakfast
and luncheon, and neither unbalanced
nor Inadequate for either child or
adult.
In the feeding of children considera-
ton must be made in the difference be-
tween child and an adult. In COM
parison of size the child Is doing
great deal more work than the adult,
but his natural appetite will take care
of the amount of food needed to build
the body and keep up energy. The
child's food, because he has to use
more, must be easily digested, more
wholesome and be better balanced, or
trouble will follow.
Children should have fats, such as
cream, butter and olive Oil, all easily
digested. Plenty of fat, two ounces
OF butter to a pound of bread is con-
sidered a normal amount-a great fac
tor in growth.
