ing as soon as he starts feeding
himself. Training !, ads to habits
and habits make character.
Remember that the fodder
should have as much variety as
possible. If his appetite is poor
the mother will only make It
worse by commenting on his fail
ure to eat. Compauionship with
another child who has a healthy
appetite ! a good remedy. Some
times lack OF overcise Is the
trouble.
Remember that, while people
think much about disease in the
school child they seem to think
that in the fodder it does not
matter, they send convalescents
and mildly sick children, called
contacts, down to play in the
streets and yards when the chill
dren are at school," In this way
many a toddler who does not go
to school gets infected. Measles
and whooping cough, especially
whooping cough, should be re-
ported at once to the health au-
thorities. Children suffering from
these infections should be quar-
antined at home or removed to
isolation hospitals. In crowded
centers- it is practically impos-
sible to isolate them at home.

daughter was entertaining her
friends again-more numerous and
gayer than ever. But now dad
was there, too-right in the living
room with everybody else.
He protested at first. An old
fellow like him-and he liked his
slippers and his ancient smoking
jacket. So she made him wear
the slippers and the jacket.
Then he bothered about his
slippery grammar said they'd
notice it. And she made her
grammar slippery too, and said she
liked it that way.
And when more time had passed
her friends began to ask for dad
when he wasn't around.
Finally it came about that he
moved back into the little old
shabby comfortable room. But
the artists and musicians and
others who had done important
things moved in there with him!
For everybody had discovered
that the one who is overlooked
quite often is the one everybody
wants to see.

Mother, whom never had to work

Besides, he was so busy max

between the forest walls Of this

Of the dark and mysterious stream
which led to the still more mys-

That night the rejoicing OF the

men who had come out from I'M

off its tension for the first time
in many days. A great fire was
built. and the men sang and

air. David could see the whole
thing from his window, and when
Joe Clamart came in with supper,
he found the meat they were
cooking over the fire was fresh
moose steak.
No Trading
AS there had been no trading
or firing of guns coming down,
he was puzzled and when he asked
where the meat had come from
Joe Clamart only shrugged his
shoulders and winked an eye, and
went out singing about the
allouette bird that had everything
plucked from it, one by one.
But David noticed there were
never more than four men ashore
at the same time. AT least one
was always aboard the bateau,
watching his door and windows.
And he. too, felt the thrill of an
excitement working subtly within
him, and this thrill pounded in
swifter running blood when he
saw the men about the fire jump
to their feet suddenly and go to
meet new and shadowy figures
that came up indistinctly just in
the edge OF the forest gloom.
There they mingled and were
lost in identity for a long time,
and David wondered If the new

over the plank to the bateau to
