Helping Children to Love Birds
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER

a little girl or boy take II upon HIM
self or herself to scatter crumbs regu-
larry, and In a certain spot. for the
birds each morning or evening. By
making It regular the birds will learn
to expect this feeding and not fail to
call punctiliously.
Bird Bath.
Another suggestion Is to have the
children fix a bird bath In some gar
den corner. The bath may be just a
waShbowl sunk into the earth or 1t
may be a handsome, regulation bird
bath. In either case it must he kept
with the right amount OF water in It..
This will mean taking out some OF the
water after a heavy storm, when 1t
becomes too full. Birds need shallow
baths.
Simple Duty.
If the children have 1t as their duty
to see the right amount Of water is
kept in the bird bath, they will enjoy
watching the birds more than as If
they had no share in tempting them
to come. The task Is not one likely to
become burdensome even to little tots.
There is point in having the child
take this little responsibility quite seri
ously, however. Make children feel
that there is something dependent
upon them for which their thoughtful
ness is required.
Making 1t a Game.
It Is surprising how much a child
Will learn about birds In this way. If
there are several children, a small
prize can he offered for the one know
ing the largest number Of kinds Of
birds that have come within a week.
ut the same time that they are
learning about the birds, they should
be taught not to disturb birds nests.
This molesting is done often without
the least knowledge that they are de.
priving their fleet little neighbors of
a home. More frequently, however. DO
children watch, awed and without dar-
ing to touch. the feathered nests
wherein the birds still live.

SUMMERTIME


Vervaill.
Summer is at its height, I always
think, when begin to see the vervain
lifting its sultry purple spires among
the meadow grass and the roadside
ways. Strange how few people know
vervain when they see 1t, though
the name is certainly familiar enough
to all. Yet our language and our
traditions are rich in associations and
legend centering around the mystic
name of vervain.
Some say it was sacred to Oberon;
it is known with much certainty that
the Druids believed 1t to be a plant
Of mystic endowments. Sometimes
it was called holy plant, sometimes
enchanters plant, depending upon
whether the powers of light or dark
ness used it. AS for the name yer.
vain itself, nothing certain can be
said. Perhaps the Anglo-Saxon faer
fame, or caster out Of stones, will suf-
fee purely as a guess.
But the name that love best among
all the old associations of ver-
vain is simpler's JOY. Simplers-
it Is necessary to remark nowadays
were not simpletons but those who
gathered simples or medicinal herbs.
Our native vervains are for the most
part far lovelier than those that have
strayed here from Europe-brighter
of flower, handsomer in leaf and state
lv stature. Many of the verVains
around Washington, though, have
spread here by railroads from the
prairie States.

tale of a distinguished English com.

call in the West End Of London.
Both men knew the block upon
which the object of their search lived,
having been there before, but neither
could recall the number OF the house.
To further complicate matters, all the
homes along the row had been turned

He got no answer, for the composer
had suddenly left him. The friend
followed curiously, and saw him go to
the first house. brush his shoe against
the foot-scraper and listen intently.
He shook his head and repeated the
performance at the next house. From
doorstep to doorstep he proceeded,
with his wondering companion at his
heels. At last he stopped before a

THE WOMAN OF TWENTY
BY CLYDE CALLIsTER.

1t was when Queen Victoria was
still twenty years old that she became
| engaged to and married her cousin.
Prince Albert OF SAKE Coburg. who
was three months her junior Shortly
after Victoria became Queen she made
| the statement that she did not wish to
| marry for four years, but she could
| not resist the charms Of the gentle
| Albert. "Albert's beauty Is most strik-
| ing" she wrote, land he is most ami
| able and unaffected; in short, very fas-
cinating."
Being a Queen, she had to do the
proposing, but Albert knew what was
expected of him, and If he did not ex-
| perience at first the passionate senti-
ments toward the Queen that she felt
| for him, he really loved his pure
| hearted little cousin. They were mar.
ried after very brief engagement,
and historians seem to agree with
| Sir Sidney Lee, who says that 1.-THE
marriage proved throughout its 81
years duration one of the happiest
| unions in recorded history"
1t was when Sarah Siddons was 20
years old that she first proved to the
world her marvellous ability as an
actress, for Sarah Siddons is still re-

English: speaking actresses. She was
born in a Welsh public house called
the Shoulder Of Mutton-the eldest
child Of two strolling players. Eleven
children followed, through the family
continued to wander. When Sarah
was still in her teens she fell in love
with an actor named William Siddons
and because she wanted to marry him
instead of a squire who was willing
to have her. her parents dismissed
young Siddons from their little COM
pany and sent Sarah to work as a
lady's maid. Sarah was determined
young woman and managed at 18
to get her parents consent to her
marriage with the man of her choice.
She went on acting, and at twenty
found herself suddenly famous. She
had managed to move to tears a
party of people Of quality who had
come to scott" at the acting Of the
poor strolling players. The great
Garrick herd Of this promising young
actress, saw her act, and engaged her
to appear at Drury Lane Theater in
London.
A distinguished twenty-year-
bride was Anna Symmes, who, in 1875,
married w. II. Harrison, later Pres

himself was third son Of Ben
jamin Harrison of Virginia, who had
been signer Of the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence, and Anna Symmes was
daughter of Col. John Symmes, a

ny MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Just as an adult finds himself in
capable in very hot weather OF get
ting away" with the type Of dinner
he would have found palatable In
January, so the baby finds his usual
generous allotment of food distasteful
in warm weather.
One must remember that the baby's
bottle is his whole days menu and
is the same as meat, potatoes, vege-
table, salad and dessert to him. When
the temperature Is torrid he can't be
blamed for turning away from it In
disgust. Instead of forcing the child
to drink all of his bottled rations, the
wise mother will take into account
that this is but a, temporary diStaste
and will act accordingly.
She may allow longer intervals be-
tween meals. For the three-hour-in-
terval feeding period she may substi-
tute the four-hour one. The baby on
four,hour schedule may have three
meals day. If this does not help
the waning appetite, she should re-
duce the strength of the food. Shake
UP the bottle feeding, pour off the top
two ounces and replace with boiled
water. Or offer the baby only so much
food as he seems inclined to eat-six
ounces, instead of eight, etc.
Offer the baby boiled water at fire.
quent intervals. 1t replaces the body
fluids, rapidly being depleted by per
SEPARATION, and refreshes him. Orange
juice Is cooling and appetizing. Let
him have a little orange juice and
much water several times a day rather
than all of his orange juice at one
time.
The bottle feelings should be offered
at blood heat, and If the baby seems
TO perspire a lot when taking them
it may be sensible on hot days merely
to take the chill from the milk.
Don't watch the babys weight too
closely in hot weather. He may not
take on weight as rapidly as he did
in the early Summer months, but in
trying to keep up his weight you may
make the far worse mistake of over
feeding him, and the consequences
of this may be more disastrous than
a stationary weight for two months.
One can safely allow a well, healthy
baby irf small manner to dictate his
food needs for the hottest weather,
II his appetite is not good, it is better
to pay some heed to this and allow
him to eat less than is usual, than to
force him and make him sick.

Nutrition Nuggets.

Remember that protein requirement
varies with the age OF the individual.
A baby must build his own particular
body as we'll as repair the waste that
comes within his comparatively I'M
eventful existence. In this sense.
therefore, an infant needs more pro-
tein than does an adult. This fact Is
the reason for the Importance of milk
in the baby's diet, since protein as
contained In milk is best fitted for the
babys digestion.
SO far as healthy adults are con-
cerned. those who live an average nor
NAL existence, the requirement for
protein Is more or less fixed. Time
was when 1t was thought that a spe-
cial strain upon an adult body called
for an unusual supply of body build
ing material, such as meat, eggs and
milk. New dietetics has taught that
this is not the case. When the spe-
cial strain comes the call is for an ex-
ira supply Of energy rather than an
extra supply of building material.
We are SO apt to think of fruits as
sources Of body-regulating material
that we forget that they also furnish,
although to a limited extent, compared
to certain other foods, energy. OF the
common Summer fruits now in season,
the list reads as follows: Strawberries,
muskmelons, peaches, lemons, Or
anges, blackberries, apples, cherries.
huckelberries and bananas. These are
listed in the order of their energy
content. Attention is called to this
fact so that we may not forget that
each food group has a major and a
minor use in the body.
If it is desired to increase the blood
| pressure give foods rich In purins
| such as meat broths, soups made with
meat stock, glandular organs, such as
| sweet bread, liver and heart. Give
| generous portions of all foods, accord
ing to digestive capabilty, especially
fish, such as cod. salmon, halibut and
beef with fat, mutton, veal, potatoes
oatmeal, peas. Haricot beans and as
| paragus.
