pill is often undernourished and not
| getting the right kind of food.
Good health is the first thing to look
after in all children and proper food
is one of the most important factors
In health. Plenty of fresh air and ex-
ercise are hard to get.
The child should be started out in
the morning with a nourishing, easily
digested breakfast. A dish of good
cooked cereal with top milk or thin
cream, piece of toast or a muffin
with an egg will stay by him until
noon. Hot milk in cold weather, cocoa
occasionally, but coffee or tea never.
For luncheon when possible not
drink or hot soup with sandwiches and
bit of fruit.
Lack of appetite in the morning is
often the result of sleeping in poorly
ventilated rooms or keeping too late
hours. A child from five to twelve
should sleep at least nine or ten hours.
The food for growing children
should be easy of digestion The habit
Of many mothers is to warm the milk
with a little coffee. Those who have
tudied the subject tell us that such
drink causes fermentation in the stom-
ach and of course the coffee itself is
stimulant and highly injurious to
child.
Highly seasoned foods and condi-
mentS should never be given to the
growing child. They unduly excite the
digestive juices and upset the stom-
ach.
Variety in the lunch basket is help
full thing. Children tire of the same
things. Tuck in a little surprise as
often as possible; all these things aid
the appetite.
The child's luncheon should be
planned for and put up as carefully,
as grown persons lunch. Have it
as dainty and attractive as possible.
The packing of daily lunch is not a
small task. Use plenty of cheap pa
per napkins and waxed paper to sepa-
rate the foods and keep them dainty.
Small cups and plates of paper can
be bought very cheaply, so that it aids
in making the lunch easier to serve
and also lighter to carry.
A dessert of tapioca with any good
fruit is always good one for the
children and one which they will
enjoy.

Summer Work

During the summer is the proper
time to go over the house and pick
out spots that need repairing, and
when the work is completed it is ad.
visable to give the house a new coat
Of paint. Painting will reduce the de-
cay and wear on the home and will
give a better appearance
The summer is also a good time
to go over the interior of a home and
see that all the woodwork is in q
condition that will make the dwell
ing have neat appearance.
