Your Baby and Mine
MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Sickness comes to all of us at some
time or other The very, very sick child
represents a small problem. He demands
little attention. He is too sick to care
for 1t. 1t is the days of his conva-
lescence that are trying. He must be
wheedled into wanting the food that
will build him up again. He grows tired
of holding toys He grows tired OF
everything. His mother, relieved of her
anxiety, is apt to become irritable, too.
1t is trying period
There are dangers in the GONZALES
cent period that do not always appear
until afterward. If the child is one
who has had little attention in his life
time. this exaggerated concern for his
welfare, this family effort to please him
and wait upon him is too pleasant an
experience to relinquish. He wants to
remain in the role of an invalid be-
cause this role is proving immensely
satisfactory to him.
If the mother has been q constant
attendant at his bedside, he is liable
to develop strange ailments when she
disappears, in order that she may be
brought back again. Unless this at
tention is tapered off gradually, the
child will use the knowledge he has

command attention at will. He knows
if he says, II believe have little sore
throat" that he will be put to bed and
coddled. No child is above using such
methods of obtaining attention, and. in
really exaggerated cases, mother can
date the beginnings of behavior
troubles from the time of some serious
illness. when the child was showered
and swamped with the combined cour-
tesies of the family.
1t behooves the mother. then, to be-
gin as soon as the child shows improve
ment and lead him gently back to in
dependence again. She must leave him
alone to amuse himself for periods In
the day. She must encourage in him the
belief that now, since he is getting bet
ter. he must consider again other per-
sons besides himself, and cease useless
demands upon their time. If the mother
does this the child will soon be eager
to be about again. He will see that
there is more satisfaction to be gained
from activity and independence than
in inactivity and being leaner. He
can learn this only If the parent, when
he is healthy, gives him enough atten-
ton so that he never learns through
illness the attractions of being the CEN
ter of the family stage.

Vegetable Platter.

Fresh or canned vegetables may be
used for this dish. Spinach, potatoes
peas, asparagus and carrots make an
attractive platter on account of the
colors. Prepare all the vegetables, ex-
cept the potatoes, cooking in as little
water as possible. The potatoes may

sauce while the other vegetables are
cooking. Carrots when cooking require
tablespoonful of butter to each cup

king of paprika. Asparagus needs a
seasoning of butter and lemon juice
Dress the peas with butter. Chop the
spinach fine, add butter and season with
a little vinegar. Poach as many eggs
as are needed. Toast a slice of bread
for each egg. Arrange the buttered
toast in the center of the platter, car

Britain Urges World
to Make War on Rats

The government Of Great Britain
has started world war on the rats.
It is a world war because it is en-
deavoring to have the other nations of
the world to follow her example, and
the threat Is made that If something
in this direction is not done the result
will be disastrous. If the rat popu-
lation Of the world is allowed to in
crease as 1t has done in the past few
years, the world will be overrun with
rats and civilization will topple. Man
will be wiped from the face Of the
globe. All the great plaques of his
tory are said to have been spread by
rats. One Of the remedies is absolute
cleanliness. There is a close analogy
between the number of rats to be
found in a city and the sanitary con-
dition of that city, one official de-
clared. The more careful cities are
about the disposal Of garbage, the
fewer rats they have, because lack of
food will control the normal increase
Of the pests.

MILK KEEPS BEST
IN REFRIGERATOR
Temperature of As Degrees
or Lower Is Desirable.

prepared by the United states Department
OF Agricultural
To keep milk in the best possible
condition in the household refriger-
ator q temperature of 45 degrees
partment is desirable This conclusion
is the result Of studies recently made
by the bureau Of home economics Of
the United States Department Of Agri-
culture to determine the temperature
and conditions that should be main
tanned in the home refrigerator to
keep milk for the length of time it is
ordinarily held. Refrigeration is used
to retard the development of bacteria
in milk and prevent the decomposition
brought about by these organisms, and
so keep. the milk as nearly as possible
in the original wholesome condition.
These Studies show that both raw
and pasteuriZed milk stored for "a, 4S,
II and SO hours have only small in
crease in bacteria when stored at 40
degrees Fahrenheit, whereas at 60 de-
grees Fahrenheit the increase is very
large. The first great jump in bac-
terial growth takes place between As
and so degrees Fahrenheit. The rela
ton of time to temperature is also i'm
portant. If milk is held for a short
period-24 hours or less-a tempera-
ture not exceeding 80 degrees Fahren-
heit appears to give satisfactory re-
suits. If milk is held for longer time,
then temperature not to exceed DO
| degrees Is of real value.
Under no circumstances should milk
be placed in refrigerator in an open
pitcher, bottle. or other uncovered con.
tainer. 1t should be tightly stoppered
and not be opened until Immediately
before use. If only portion of the
bottle of milk is used, the cap should
be replaced. Milk should always be
kept in the coolest portion of the re
frigerator. There may be as much al
10 degrees difference In temperature
on the different shelves. Milk may b.

For a hot weather luncheon jel-
lied meat salad is exceptionally at
tractive-cool and appetizing In APP
pearance, substantial enough for the
main course Of the meal. Veal is ex-
cellent for the purpose because the
stock made from cooking the meat
and bones contains great deal OF
"jellying" material and relatively
small amount of additional gelatin is
needed. In very hot weather it may
be necessary to increase the gelatin
somewhat or decrease the amount of
liquid to insure firmly nodded jelly.
Mayonnaise or boiled salad dressing
may be served with the jellied meat.
Have the butcher crack the bones
in the veal knuckle. Wash it well
and cover with the two quarts of
cold water. Heat slowly to the boil
ing point and then simmer covered,
until the meat is tender. Drain and

Pigeon Effective in
Role of Home Wrecker

Returning home to Philadelphia
from his vacation, Robert Ransford
opened his front door and pushed on
the light. Such scene of destruction
met his eyes, that he hurried to the
nearest drug store to call the police.
Two answered the call and, with
drawn revolvers and cautious steps,
searched the lower part of the house
for vandals. They found nothing but
confused wreckage. Upstairs they
found lamps overturned, bureau scarfs
pulled off, and in the bathroom, bot
ties broken on the tiled floor. In the
back room they discovered the culprit
"a very tired and very hungry pigeon
asleep on the bedpost. When it was
assured that no valuables were miss
ing, it was concluded that the bird had
sought shelter in the fireplace Chin
ney and had been unable to find its
way out again.

The influx of novels and motion
pictures in which the elements OF
romance and the proverbial happy
ending are conspicuous by their alb
sence caused Rupert Hughes, the
noted author, to remark:
ut is merely sign Of the age. We
used to have long courtships, solemn
ceremonies and lasting marriages
which, so far as the outside world
was concerned, were mainly happy
Marriage, in fact, was taken to be
the elimination of happiness both in
fact and in felton, But now it is
different. The JOY is in the winning
not in the possession.
