Facts About Cheese.

There is an opinion current among
many people that cheese is indigeStible.
This is very largely a mistaken idea.
for cheese has been found not in
digestible. If it is eaten with common
sense. Most people have formed the
habit Of eating cheese only after a large
meal and as this food is highly con-
centrated, 1t is likely to overtax the
digestive system and often causes dis
turbances. When cheese is eaten as
part of the meal itself experiments have
proved that 95 per cent of its protein
and an equal percentage of its fat are
digeSted and assimilated.
The ordinary American cheese is ap-
proximately one-third water. one-third
fat, one-quarter protein. and the rest
minerals-salt, Tactic acid and milk
sugar. One pound of cheese represents
the caSein or protein and the fat from
gallon OF milk. Lime and phosphorus
are the two minerals found most in
cheese. There is also very small
amount of iron and some vitamin A
These facts apply to the average Amer
ican cheese. There are. however, many
other kinds-all varying somewhat in
composition and decidedly in favor. ac-
cording to the methods of making them
All cheeSes are. however, concentrated
protein foods.
Among the other types Of cheese are.

Edam cheese comes from Holland
and is named for the town in which 1t
is mostly made The Dutch cheeses
are not quite so rich as some Of the
others since these are often made from
skim milk. This fact does not. however,
mean that the food value is seriously
lesSened since skinned milk contains
many of the most valuable elements OF
the milk.
Gorgonzola cheese comes from North

making and the ripening Of this cheese
that gives it its favor.
Roquefort cheese comes from France

usually used for the Camembert. and IL

facture that gives 1t its favor and

Halitosis.

There are certain obvious beauty
aids that all Of us know how to use,
such as cold cream face powder, rouge.
curling irons. kids and manicure tools.
with a working knowledge of these
things together with taste In the
choice of clothes. correct posture and
good health, any woman can lay the
basis for an attractive personal appear
ance.
Sometimes. however. there is some
special blemish or fault that spoils the
effect of even the most skillful make
up and costuming. 1t may not be a
problem of personal appearance at all,
but rather something to be included In
the comprehensive term, charm. The
modern girl or woman needs more than
pictorial appeal.
Many of my readers bring to me
questions of this sort that are outside
the field of the beauty parlor, but
which are vitality related to personal
charm and daintiness. One of these
problems about which / am going to
give you a few hints today is halitosis.
One may have pearly teeth and beauti-
full lips. but If ones breath has an
offensive odor people forget to admire
ones good points and feel repelled by
the single disagreeable characteristic.
OF course. the only way to be rid of
this embarrassing fault is to find the
cause and remove 1t. Sweet-scented
pastiles and mouth washes are helpful
but they are not cures There are a
number of causes of halitosis. Decay

OUR CHILDREN By Angelo pa,ri

ter, clatter go the scissors among the
wreckage.
Mother screams. Minna howls.
You naughty child Why don't you
mind me? I'll slap you good"
When you have TO tell a child not
to do some thing. especially such
young child, either remove the tempta-
ton from sight and grasp or divert
the child's attention with something
more attractive, or both. It will not
help at all to say, Mind me-" The
child's mind is full of what he wishes
to do, and until you replace that idea
with another more powerful the first
idea is going to stay and win out.
When you want Minna to go and
play provide the play. When YOU want
to teach child to let things alone give
him things of his own as attractive
as those he wants to take or touch.
Give him an interest in something else
as strong as the one you are depriving
him of and he will let go the first one
1t won't do to say. Mind me-" not
even to an adolescent There must be
a shifting Of the idea in the center of
the child's mind before there will be
a shift of action.
Think about that. 1t holds good from
