have had several letters lately from
people who wanted to know more about
the milk cure. It Is an extraordinarily
effective cure for literally hundreds of
troubles-in fact for almost every Ill

Even a few days OF milk diet will re-
lieve any form Of gastro-intestinal dis
order, leaving the stomach rested and
healthy, the intestines free of poison
and inflammation, ready to act nor
mally again, while, among its minor
benefits. the skin will be beautifully
clear and healthy looking. The bene-
fits OF this cure are so great that Sani-
tariums giving nothing but the milk
cure are fiourishing all over the country.
No solid food OF any kind should be
taken. A very good way to begin Is to
take an eight-ounce glass OF milk every
hour for IL hours. which means that
over the course OF the day three quarts
OF milk are taken. This Is the equiva-
lent In nourishment OF any ordinary
daily diet. II milk makes you bilious

grapefruit juice taken just before the

"How much work ought to be expect

Just as much as he or she can DO
without straining himself.
/ believe in work When everything
else fails us there is still our work, and
provided we have strength to do 1t, 1t
carries us on. II 1t rains and spoils our
treat there is something useful to be
done about the house. If severe dis
appointment comes to us we can bury 1t
under a pile of work and out of the
combination will come something better
than we had hoped. When grief over
whelms us and threatens to destroy
whatever Of happiness we had wrested
from life's grip, our only salvation lies
In the daily task that must be done.
Work keeps intelligence alive and
growing. 1t creates power as power is
put into 1t. 1t brings health and sue
cess and content. The child who is
not trained to work as a matter of
course, as matter of right living, will
have to labor for his living and between
working for living and laboring for
one there is all the difference that spans
tears and smiles, drudgery and art.
It Is not easy to teach child to

OUR CHILDREN By Angelo ,,ri

as a little girl can tie her own slipper,
keep your hands Off even IL the bow
isn't quite perfect. If child can place
his own chair let him drag it and
shove # and haul It where he wants It.
With each push the child grows.
Only a silly person says, MY child
Is not going to have to work II can
help 1t. I've had to work all my life
and I know what 1t is" It was pre-
cisely that attitude Of mind that pro-
duced the grudging laborer who voices
that idea. Work done in the creative
spirit, work done with Joy, work IL
Eliminated with a purpose, with love,
with some spiritual force behind 1t, Is
the highest expression OF the human
soul. Crave it for your children instead
Of pushing 1t away.
Use common sense In teaching the
children to work. Let them perform
necessary services so that they feel that
they are needed in the house. Let them
carry a bit of responsibility for the
daily task Be careful to measure the
weight of the job, and make sure that
1t is within the power Of the child
and yet leaves him the chance 70

Did you ever stop to think that 1t Is
by reaching, stretching that we grow

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Thursday, March 90.

Many planetary influences contend
today, according to astrology, which
reads general conditions as good.
For the successful continued power
is indicated and this fact may be dis
couraging 10 many who covet places
already occupied.
In politics new leaders will gain pow
er, but they will be in the thrall Of
old traditions, aStrologers predict.
Surprises in the choice of candidates
for President Of the United States are
foretold and there will be much party
diSSenSion.
This Is a sway which is better for ac-
ton than for planning future enter
prises 1t is well to push big matters.
This is a flattering sign for initiative,
but the Judgment should not be trusted.
Begin what has been carefully outlined
Increase In deceit, intrigue and adroit
dishonesty has been predicted by those
who study the stars.
Access of self1ShneSs and egotism is
foretold, for there will be added greed
for money and power as the year ad-
vanceS.
Plots * many sorts are supposed to
be encouraged under this sway, which
is not fortunate for domestic happiness.
The Seers foretell for children who
have come into the world since the
Great War the most stupendous re-
sponSibilities In the future and likewise
superb achievements.
II the stars are rightly read. there
are today myriad big souls incarnated
in the bodies of very young folk, and
these will redeem many world Ills in
the future.
The new generations are wiser and
better than the old. all who have pro-
phetic vision declare.
Persons whose birth date 1t Is may
expect a profitable year. with increase
Of money.
