Let active, healthy children have
a simple mid-morning or mid-after-
noon lunch il they crave it. The
chances are that this extra food is
absolutely required, by the growing
bodies. Be careful, however, not to
add sweets or rich foods to these
lunches. Plain bread and butter, a
glass of milk, banana VERY ripe)
or some other simple food will ne
ample.
The most grievpus Of all waste is
to limit the value OF foods eaten either
by poor cookery, by lack of restful
and healthful conditions or by eating
wrong combinations in excessive guam
titles at the wrong times. The results
are waste OF money of food itself and
Of health.

In any program Of child feeding be
careful to watch the results of any
changes made in the diet. 1t is not
sufficient to plan a diet. no matter
how wholesome it may be. and then
dismiss the matter.
The reason why tall and thin in
dividual needs more food than one who
is short and stout is because the tall
person has a larger surface in his body
exposed to the air, and this means that
he loses more Of his bodily heat than
does his short stout brother.
When all protein or BODYBUILDING
food must temporarily be cut out, the
home dietitian must depend on fruit
juices, On honey. pears. bananas, to-
matoes, celery, lettuce, ripe olives AMI
gruels.
In cases of fevers the patients must
be given fruit juices. fig and date
marmalades, crisp prepared cereals,
buttermilk. whey, malt sugar. vege-
table purees, gruels, broths, and so
on, according to the physicians direc-
tons.
Figures are never satisfactory il

PLATTEvILLE

Fire of unknown origin summoned
the Fire Department to the east room
in the Cummins' property, occupied
10y McReynolds' News Stand, on Tues
day morning about 1910. The alarm
was turned in by members of the
Elks lodge, who were returning home
from a party in the rooms. Had it
not been discovered as soon as it was
the entire building might have been
burned, and, being of frame construc-
ton, and adjacent to the Bailey Block
it can easily be imagined that dis
astrous fire was averted.
Messrs. j. K. and l.. nj. Stephens,
have been doing some prospecting on
Ne l.. M. Stephens farm on the
Mound Road, and their efforts have
been rewarded by obtaining a good
strike of lead ore. They have sunk
a shaft to the depth of 20 feet. In
the bottom of the shaft is WI ~ they
found the mineral, chunks w oighing
from one to fifty pounds. The ore
taken from the bottom of the shaft
ran $500, and it is in sight all about.
They had commenced to dig but Mr..
John Stephens was taken i'll and they
had to stop for a time.-Journal.

QUESTION AND ANSWER
(Muscoda PROGRESSIVE

H M, Richland Center: My fell
lows birthday occurs next week.
What can / give him as little sur
prise? Answer: Just tell him your
right age.
Reader, Swan: What country do
the Gypsies come from and what Ian
guage do they speak? Answer: They
are regarded on good authority as de-
scendants of some obscure Hindu
tribe. They are found in large num-
bers in European countries. The
Gypsy calls himself Rom, and the
language he speaks is Romany, al
though many of them that come here
speak the language of the country
from which they hail.
P. D., Gotham: Is it true that we
don't have as severe winters as we
did in the days of our grandfathers?
Answer: No. The weather bureau
reports show there is no appreciable
difference The very hard winters
that old timers talk about are mostly
imagination The winters seemed
colder to the old timers because they
were not as we'll protected from the
cold as people are today, besides it
is human nature for people to exag-
gerate little.
A. H., Muscoda: 1 understand that
the people in the city of Washington
cannot vote for president. Why can't
they? Answer: Because the District
of Columbia has never been admitted
as a state. From 1871 to 1874 it was
governed as a territory, and in the
latter year Congress abolished that
form of government, without. how
ever, of giving States rights to the
District. If the District, at any time,
is admitted to the Union as state
they will automatically be given the
franchise. It is now governed by
three commissioners appointed by the
President
