PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE
BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. d.

me more cruel and certainly more in
| furious to stop the child from crying
or from expressing emotion under the
circumstances than it is to whip the
child. Such cruel repression is quite
likely to impair the child's nervous
stability. Try it yourself, and see If
YOU can straighten your face when
you're taking punishment.
Physical punishment, even sharp
mental discipline, at or near the meal
time, is sure to disturb digestion, and
is therefore unnecessarily severe and
cruel Why, for that matter. you can
work havoc with child's digestion and
health by Just fussing and scolding and
coaxing and commenting about the
childs lack Of appetite for this or I'M
due fondneSs for that item, at table.
It is one Of the first rules Of health that
the food must not be discussed at table:
1t is at least matter OF essential
courtesy or good manners that pecu-
liarities or abnormalities of taste or
appetite are never to be noticed at
table.
The way TO manage children who
eat too little or too fast or just "pick"
at this or that, or have finical ap-
petite, is to provide wholesome and
attractive food and set minimum
time limit at table-say 20 minutes
no matter whether the child whites
away the time eating or just waiting
A child should never be sent to bed
in tears. That surely counteracts any
good effect punishment or discipline
may have. The child should go to
| sleep knowing that father or mother
or guardian has done only what was
right. and resolved to avoid repetitions
of the offense which led to the
punishment.
A system of penalties in the shape
of denial or refusal of little privileges
or pleasures to which the child Is more
or less accustomed, Of course, compen-
stated by suitable rewards in the shape
of special privileges or pleasures for
good behavior, will ordinarily accom-
plish more than physical punishment
can.
Still, I believe physical punishment,
properly administered, is one of the
best remedies for disobedience and
disrespect of parental or other authority
for children in their teens.

OUR CHILDREN
BIZ ANGELO PATRI,
Friendship.

&AAOhNOAAAps
To the Boys and Girls:
There are two parts Of your lob
your Job OF growing up. There is the
preparation-study and work that gives
you the skill and the power to work
well. That is one half. The other half
is the power to get on well with people;
to make people like you.
You remember the farmers fine COW?
She gave more and better milk than
any other COW in the herd, but she
kicked the bucket of milk over every
time. AS there was no good for the
farmer in that process he sold the COW
for beef, the cheapest end a COW can
have.
have known many people like that
COW. They have fine gifts. They can
teach, or paint, or sell, or build far bet
ter than the next worker in their fields,
but they spend more time in pickering
with people than they do in working,
so they fail and have to be sold out.
Getting along with people is an art
by itself. 1t requires thought, and it
mas It's own technique. But any healthy
minded person can master the secret If
he will. OF course, first of all he must
wish to be friendly desire to make peo-
pie like him. Then he sets to work to
bring about that liking and that friend
illness.
The first rule Is: think of the other
person firstl" Keep yourself in the
background. Listen. to what the other
person has to say. Good listeners are
scarce and greatly priced. If you are
engaged to work for the other man,
take down his directions and do your
very best to do what he wants done.
You may think your idea is better. but
unless he invites an expression Of your
idea keep 1t to yourself If your work
is good he will very soon ask your
opinion and consider it worth while.
But If all the time he is telling you
what he wants done you keep telling
him what he ought to want and how It
should be done, he will shun you.
The second rule would offer you is
this: Keep your tongue under control"
Whenever you feel smart retort rising
to the tip of your tongue, bite it down.
You will never be sorry for what you
didn't say. Keep the smart things, the
sharp words, the piece of your mind"
for your private enjoyment. When you
have thought them over a few times
they will lose all their brilliancy and
you will rejoice that you had sense
enough to keep them to yourself.
One more thing Is highly important
to you. Keep the debt in your favor.
Try to do more than Is asked of you.
Instead of asking favors, grant them.
Don't be afraid of spending yourself In
service, for there is no better way to
grow in power and grace and in the ap-
probation OF your fellows than Just
that.

Chocolate Cup Cakes.

Cream together one and one-half
cupfuls of sugar, one tablespoonful of

cupfuls of pastry flour. Beat well and
bake in gem pans for about 80 minutes.
Remove the cakes when cool and cut

she looked at "baby buntings."
The saleswoman pointed out the adj
vantages. o
First the bunting spreads open easily
so that the child Is laid right in. Then
1t is closed at the bottom so that the
feet do not protrude and wave in the
cold. Thirdly, it has no sleeves. If
you ever have tried to get ainlessly
waving arms into small armholes you
will appreciate the lack of sleeves. OF
course the arms and hands are kept
as warm as toast inside the wrap.
Then the bonnet is a part of the
wrap, so that there is one less garment
to struggle with when the baby is rest
less and in addition there is no cold
that can strike the back of the baby's
neck"
These arguments sold the wrap to
Lois. Then she began to hope for Win
ter days so she could take her little
baby bunting out for an admiring world
to see.

nothing else.
Lois used to tell Roger that never
again would he be able to talk about
the high cost of feminine clothing.
But Lois knew that there were days
coming when she would have to put
the small girl into more and warmer
clothes.
She found a soft bonnet with wash
able and removable soft silk ties. That
was her first investment.
Then she bought some fine flannel
and made some sacques and kimonos.
These would suffice for the first nippy

There was nothing cowardly about
Inpy the black Chipmunk. This was

another Chipmunk who was bigger and
older than he. Impy was getting rather
the worst Of 1t. Yes, sir; he was getting
rather the worst of it. That was quite
natural The strange Chipmunk had
fought many battles. Not only was he
stronger than Impy. but he knew all
the tricks of fighting. Over and over
they rolled on the ground, biting, kick
ing, scratching; every once in a while
one or the other would squeal.
Now, there was a reason why Impy
fought so long and so hard. That rea-
son was little Miss Frisky. She was
watching that fight, and Impy knew
It. He was fighting for her. He would
have quit long ago had 1t not been
