Nutrition Nuggets

Remember that milk is a. food
rather than a beverage. Although It
Is in a fluid state naturally, as soon
as it Is swallowed 1t becomes solid
or rather clotted. For this reason II
should be slipped slowly. so that the
cIots or curds 90 not form in large
ma sses.
No other food is so easily contami-
rated as milk. Some of the ways In
which this may happen are as fol-
lows: Wrong kind of food for the
COWS; actual disease germs from cows
tnat are tubercular or affected by
other diseases: disease germs from
outside sources: decomposition from
being kept so long; the absorption
OF foul odors.
Skinned milk. although it Is Iaok-
ing in fat or cream, still retains the
fore a nourishing addition to pud-
dings, soup and other milk dishes.
When skinned milk is used, he sure
that fat in the form of butter is
present in sufficient quantities N die
tary.
Although air is not ordinarily in
cluded in list offoods, 1t Is, never
theless, necessary to life. ard in that
sense may be considered as a food.
All food must be oxidized or buried
in the body, and this process of oXida-
tion cannot take place without air.
Those of us who live in a very cold
climate require more :ood than those
who make their home in tropical or
temperate countries. This is because
we can be more active in the cold
country. The fatty foods particularly
must be increased, as the fat makes
1t easier to keep warm.
The reason why a tall and thin
person needs more food than, ono
who is short and stout is because the
tall person has a larger surface in
Eis body exposed to the air. and this
means that he loses more of his
bodily heat than does his short. stout

Danny and Nanny accepted the in
vitation Truth to tell, they We're
very curious. They had wondered a
great many times what kind of Il
wondered if il was hole in the
ground like that of their hateful
cousin. Little Robber tho Cotton Rat.
Hes such a smart fellow he prob
ably has it we'll hidden" Danny had
said And 10 this Nanny had agreed.
SO they were quite ready to follow
Trader and visit his home. He led
them a short distance into the woods.
Here we are said he at last. stop
ping at the foot of tree. Then
without waiting for them to reply,
Re climbed that tree as nimbly as
a squirrel.
Danny and Nanny looked up. Half
way up that tree was tangle of
vines and in the midst of that tanEle
was great mass of sticks and
leaves. 1t was TWO or three times
as big as the summer home Of Happy
Jack the Gray Squire. 1t was so
big that for a moment they didn't
think it could be Traders home. But
they saw him disappear in it and
they heard him calling them to come
on up.

time on the ground, they can climb.
as you already know. This wasn't
a hard tree to climb. SO. after hesi-
tating a moment or two, Danny start

reached that great mass of dry sticks
and leaves it looked even bigger
than it had from the ground. Trader
poked his head out from an opening.
Well" said he, what do you think
of it?''
Il think it is a Splendid place for
a home" replied Danny. Il suppose
IL is the old home of some one
great deal bigger than you"
Nothing of the kind" retorted
Trader. II built it myself. Every
stick in it l brought and put in place.
1t was a lot of work. Yes. sir. 1t was
d lot of work. But work never yet
hurt any one. Come in and make
yourselves at home"
