returned Rastus, glancing from the
fence to his questioner.
"What for?" expressively replied

Rastus, negatively shaking his head,

Wills 81 to Former
Wife, Miss Hudnut

Los Angeles, Sept 8.-The Examin-
er says Teresa Werner, an aunt of
Natascha Rambova and devoted friend
OF the dead actor, will share equally
with Alberto and Maria Guglielmi,
brother and sister of Rudolph Valen-
tino, in the final distribution of the
Valentino estate. Valentines last
will, drawn September 1, 1925, will be
offered for probate in superior court
here Friday.
The dead actors estate is valued at
100000, exclusive of his interests in
"The Son of Sheik" and "The Eagle,
his last pictures, which, it is expected,
will gross considerably over S1,OO0,-
900. In addition to $4,000 life insur-
anee policy, the will lists Falcons
Lair" Valentines $4,000 home in
overly Hills, his collection Of armour

By September most of us feel that
summer is over and begin to repair
the ravages of the warm season. Shoes
which have served US well all though
the vacation months deserve first at
tention.
Fathers shoes are sadly in need of
heels; Jimmy's need soles, mothers
need cleaning, and sister Sues are
scuffed. These things are all jobs for
an expert repairman, I think.
Have you seen the cunning new
kitchen curtains of voile? They're
adorable and washable as well. AS
soon as / saw them I determined to
have some for myself. They are so
attractive and easy to make that I
must tell you about them. Mine are
white but you may make yours any
color you wish. Penney's have a large
selection of dainty voiles in all colors;
so you will be able to satisfy any color
scheme).
Of course, | don't know how much
material you will need because your
windows undoubtedly differ from mine
in size, but you can measure their
length and then purchase the neces-
sary amount for either sash or full
length curtains, as you wish.
First, l stenciled tea-towel design
Of plates and cups at the bottom Of
each curtain.
Then, with colored thread I outlined
the pictures" and crocheted border
around each curtain. Since my pre-
dominating color was blue, l made my
edge of blue also.
It takes very little time to make
these and you will be delighted with
the many compliments you receive
after the curtains are up.

awarding damages of $4,000 to a
chorus girl for single kiss. Borrow

"What now?" her father remarked.
When he finished the newspaper story
he said "And now how much does it
come to-"
Exactly S64,745,' answered Tessie.
"At $4,000 kiss l see."
"That isn't what I'd make, you poor

The Problem of Feeding
Making children eat what is good

ways will be one of the biggest prob

Acting on the principle that there are
tricks in every trade, we submit some
methods that have been found effec-
tive in making children eat.
First of all, however, the parent
should learn the reason behind the
child's capracious appetite. There
may be physical cause at the bottom
and this should be corrected. But
generally it is all matter of train
ing as the normal child will eat when
ever his stomach is empty.
Sometimes the fault lies with the

MAKING CHILDREN EAT

parent, who does not use proper dis
cipline with the result that the child
is willful, irritable or stubborn instead
of being poised, good-natured and
tractable.
Some Ways to Solve the Problem
Assuming that child is physically
and mentally normal, but just lacks in
terest in his food, the following meas
ures will be found helpful:
Milk-Let the child take it through
a straw. Allow him to pour it him
self into his glass. Sometimes his ap-
petite is stimulated by only half filling
his glass. Often the milk can be dis
guised by incorporating it in cocoa,
soups eggnogs, custards, cereals,
chowders, buildings, junket.
Eggs-In cases where dislike for
eggs is exhibited they (the eggs may
be put in custards, buildings, eggnogs,
orange whips, and cream sauces.
Breads-A child who objects to
bread will generally eat it in the form
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1926-09-16

of a dainty sandwich, French toast,
etc. Or the kind of bread may be
varied each day-graham, rye, Swed-
ish, whole wheat, bran. Spreading the
bread with jam, jelly or peanut butter
is helpful.
Cereals-When cereals are declined
they may be made more appetizing by
the addition of fruits-bananas ber-
ries, peaches. Half cream and milk
with plenty of sugar generally helps.
You can't blame youngster for show
ing dislike for a pasty mess of oat-
meal with a negative amount of sugar
and some sky-blue milk over it. A
different kind Of cereal every day in
the week insures variety-the spice
of life.
Vegetables-If vegetables are OBJ
jected to, the fault probably lies with
their mode of preparation. There GER
tainly is nothing appetizing, for ex-
ample, about dish of boiled, sandy,
lukewarm spinach. But this and any
other vegetable can be made so appe-
tizing that the child will ask for Sec
ond helping.
1t must be remembered that children
have individual tastes just the same as
adults, and, like their elders, they want
to crafty them. There is a happy
medium between the over-indulged and
the over-disciplined child in this as in
all other phases affecting their rear
ing. Find it, and everybody will be
happy.

there is this difference: The cheka
