THE DOCILE CHILD
BY ALICE JUDSON PEALE

Occasionally one meets a child Of
whom one may enumerate all the
social virtues, who nevertheless gives
the impression that he lacks some
quality essential to his genuine hap
pinesS and success. His docile man
ners and engaging ways bring him
approval wherever he goes. His mother
and teacher are charmed with q
child who, while attractive and COM
petent, never makes trouble for any,
one.
The other children find him an
agreeable playmate. He always will
do anything that Is suggested and
will take without complaint any part
assigned to him. He is ready to drop
whatever he is doing to obey q COM
mand. join game or oblige friend.
Because he is so generally affable
he meets with no criticism. Everyone
is satisfied to have him remain quite
as he is. We seldom question the
behavior of these people who, with
out friction, adapt themselves to our
convenience.

type of child rich, first hand ex.
perience Of life will help him to guard
and strengthen that individuality
which he seems to be all too ready to
give up for a friendly smile or a
word of praise.
He will encourage his little tenta-
tive moves towards self assertion and
the development of initiative. BY re-
speeding his child's occupations he will
teach him to feel that one should not
put aside what one is doing for the
first friendly conner. He will find q
hundred subtle ways to indicate that
many things are even more impor-
tant than popularity. and that indeed
the best kind of life comes to those
who, while they are considerate and
sweet tempered. pursue their own
course with sturdy independence and
an approval that comes from within.

THE HUNT FOR WISDOM

William Bcebe naturalist has sailed for tiny island
IN the Bermudas group. where he will spend the next
few months In diving suit walking around on the
floor Of the ocean to look at the fishes.
Between dives, Mr. Beebe will drag the floor of such
parts Of the he cannot visit in person. He
doesn't know just what he is going to find but he
fident that when he is through he will know great
deal about certain obscure forms of marine life
than he knows now.
The bump Of curiosity is strange thing and 1t leads
men into strange places Mr.. Beebes discoveries will
not have what like to call practical value: nobody will
get rich off Of them. industries will grow out
OF them. great change in habits Of thought will
be caused by them. The world will wag on In much the
same way whether not his expedition is successful.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
PAPitnn1k1a

Question: M. G. L. G. asks: "Wiu
you kindly explain peritonitis? What
is the cause, and is there q cure?"
Answer: There are many causes of
peritonitis. Peritonitis means inflam-
nation Of the peritoneum which is the
smooth covering lining Of the abdo-
men. Various diseases Of the intes-
tines or other abdominal organs NAV
induce spread of Inflammation to
the peritoneum. The cause Is always
found in one or more Of these in
famed organs and never starts In the
peritoneum itself. Therefore q dag
nosis is necessary to find the cause.
Dulse
Question: J. H. L. writes: "When
I was in Scotland I was given plant
called dulse to eat and I rather en-
joyed its flavor, but have not found
any in this country. Can you tell me
if it is obtainable here?"
Answer: DulSe is an edible sea-
weed which may be eaten raw, either
fresh or dried, or boiled In water and
served as q vegetable, or 1t may be
roasted by twisting 1t around red hot
tongs. Seaweed is one of the most
abundant Of natures products and is
used in many parts of the world for
food. It, however, contains very little
in the way of nutritive qualities,
although it is rich In mineral ele-
ments, especially sodium. iodine,
chlorin and potassium. Most of the
seaweeds possess gelatinous properties
and are used for thickeinng soups and
making jellies. Dulse Is quite abund-
ant along the New England coast and
probably most seashores. Other sea-
weeds sometimes used for food, are:
agar-agar, for its laxative properties;
carragheen or Irish moss, for making
blanc-mange or jelly; and laver,
known in Scotland as sloak, which is
boiled and spiced and served with cold
meats.
