NAV take vigilance, but IL is far
better to see that your child forms
good habits than to permit bad
habits which will curse his future.
There are plenty Of habits
formed in youth that are a menace
to future good health. Chief OF
these are the habits of eating.
Some persons have digestive organs
which seem capable Of handling
almost anything that falls short Of
rocks and hardware. They appear
TO be able 70 eat anything and
suffer no i'll. effects.
consider it unwise to treat any
stomach, no matter how willing IL
may be, TO such hardships. Chill
dren are apt TO bolt their food, to
be notional about what they eat.
and TO refuse to eat what is good
for them. II you are guardian to
such a child, you must be firm in
helping him to form right habits
Of eating.
1t is important to prevent a child
from forming a habit OF eating too
much sugar, or too much salt, or
TOO much meat, or too much of
anything. He must have a bal
anced diet. and the more variety
Of food he takes the better. Eter-
nal vigilance must be yours in this
habit-forming stage of his career.
We all discover, some time, that
some one thing is bad for US. Per-
haps we have formed a great liking
for pork, pastry, candy, or one Of
a hundred different things. We
may find that something does not
agree with US, something perhaps
that has stood rs in good stead for
years past. Now is the time that
we can give evidence Of real char
acter by changing our eating hab-
its. We find that we feel better,
and are better, by reducing the
consumption Of whatever has been
determined upon as destructive Of
our welfare.
There can be no doubt that GER
tain foodstuffs are poisonous to
some people. There is no use try
ing 70 overcome the effects. You
just have TO eliminate all or part
Of such a food. Tobacco and alco-
hol arc In the same category. III
one of them does you harm and
produces i'll effects in your body
and brain, you just cannot afford
TO indulge in IT,
Form good sleeping habits Most
people need eight hours OF good
sleep every night in the week. "day
in and day out" Some get along
on five. but the chances are sthat
the person who does not get
enough sleep will lessen his body
resistance 70 disease. IL Is some
thing to think about.
Is il your good habit to take a
vigorous walk each day, If you are
not exercising your body some
other way? That is also most es-
sential to your health.

TNRULY does Dame Fashion adapt herself to the moods and
caprices of her daughters. Instead Of following her, some
= times the order is reversed, and poor Dame Fashion finds
herself trailing where they lead.
She may say that one thing is TO be THE style-then she
finds so many variations of that ONE style that she is bewildered.
Once upon a time the girl of the hour wouldn't have dared deviate
one tiny bit from the rules laid down, but nowadays! Miss Modern
Maid looks over the styles, selects a ruffle here, a skirt length
there, a waistline somewhere else, and then calmly proceeds to
make them becoming to her own particular type. And yet. she's
always a walking fashion plate.

Nothing is so marring to beauty as spotted
clothing even though it is perfectly apparent that
the spots occurred after leaving home. OF
course, it's better to give the impression that
such a condition is an accident rather than de-

longer are forgiven lightly because it is SO easy
to avoid them The fastidious woman never per
