Practice of Eating Between Meals
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

was gone when the time to eat came.
BY giving the child just little 1000,
even though it was close to the meal
hour, her system was stimulated 10
crave more rather than less food. While
this Is an exceptional case, 1t Is well Tor
mothers to realize that such conditions
do sometimes exist Adults do not hesl-
tate to take appetizers before meals
although children are not supposed 10
need them.
There are persons who cannot eat
enough at any one time to preserve
their strength for the hours intervening
between meal hours. These persons,
who are usually little children. mvalids
or mi-invalidS. should have midmealS.
They do not require the food just prior
to a mealtime. but at stated intervals
between such times. The midmeal may
be practically as hearty as the regular
meal or 1t may be just very light
lunch.
In America. where the air is more
stimulating than in some foreign coun-
tries these midmealS are not scheduled
regularly in a household. There are
many countries, however, where mid
morning bowl of soup or cup of coffee
is the expected thing and where after
noon tea is practically necessity.
Where the dinner is set at late
hour and luncheon comes early, the
afternoon tea habit is worth forming.
The tea should not be taken too near
the dinner hour, nor should it be so
hearty that it spoils the appetite. Tea
is a very mild stimulant, and the bread
and butter. crackers or little cake taken
with it supplies food to supplement the
liquid. For busy homemakers afternoon
tea is recommended

gether with the value Of your store nix
lures, insurance and the like.
In other words, you list all OF the
assets you acquired during the year.
Then, on the other side of the ledger,
you list all bills payable, notes payable
and other obligations.
BY and large, you would have pic
ture Of all you had and all you owed.
The margin Of difference would be
either your profit or loss, depending
upon its petition on your ledger page.
Usually every business has complete
record of all stock on hand, but the
inventory serves as a check 1t will re-
veal any discrepancies in accounts or
any errors in or losses on the books.
Statements are made on the basis Of
what has been learned after the taking
of inventory. Sc the next time your
husband comes home tired from taking
inventory you will know what it IS all
about, and whether he is self-com-
placent or in a blue funk" probably
indicates the state of the ledger. His
mood may be the index as to whether
it is the auspiciouS time to ask for the

So Old Man Coyote headed stralgnC
for the Laughing Brook, Where Ihere
was open water below the poho oi

Little Joe Otter had made his slippery
slide down the steep bank. Old Man
Coyote approached it slowly ana care
fully. He first made sure that the Wlnd
was blowing in his face, so that MS own
scent would not be carried to that sloe.
Then he stole forward, sneaklng from
one tree to another, all the time trying
to keep out of sight of Little Joe outer,
should he be there.
"Ha" exclaimed Old Man Coyote un-
der his breath as Merry Little Breeze

Little Joe had just gone down his slip
perry slide into the water Old Man
Coyote darted forward, for this was his
chance while Little Joe was in the water
and could not see over the high bank.
He Crept into little group OF young
hemlockS near the edge OF the banK.
Just between him and the edge OF the
bank was a little path in the snow. OId
Man Coyote held his breath and waited.
His eyes gloWed with eagerneSs and
fierce hunger He didn't have long to
wait His ears caught faint sound.
Then he saw Little Joe coming along
that path as unsuspectingly apd SEEM
ingly as carelessly as if there were no
such thing as danger in all the Great
World He was on his way back to the
top of his slippery slide. That path
led from a place where the bank was
low and easy to climb.
Little Joe would pass within easy
jumping distance. Old Man Coyote
made ready for that jump as soon as
Little Joe should be just far enough
past for him to land on Little Joe's
back. Old Man Coyote had fully made
up his mind to try for that Otter dinner.

Dear Miss Leeds: What can I do for

when l run my hand through it. The
scalp itches. Would hot oil treatments
help? Mrs; T.:
Answer.-Hair does not actually
come out "by the roots" The small
white bulb you see on the end is not
the root but the part which fits into
the concave hair follicle from which
new hair will grow to replace the fallen
one. Your wiseSt course is to go to a
good hair specialist, as you probably
need a course of treatments to restore
your scalp to normal condition. Hols:e
treatments consist of the use of Gtim-
ulating scalp tonic, such as the fol-
lowing, three times a week: Onehalf

Taking Inventory.

About this time of the year you grow
accustomed to hearing your husband
excuse his lateness to dinner by re-
marking that they were taking inVen-
tory" at his place of business. Now
taking inventory may sound a bit mys-
terious. like a fashion that one hears
about by word of mouth. Yet it simply
amounts to a general taking of stock.
Suppose that you were running a
grocery store. At the end Of the year,
in order to see which side of the ledger
you were on, you would take stock"
That is. you would list all of the goods
that you had on hand, count up your
change and see how it tailed with your
capital in trade at the beginning Of
the year.
First of all. you would take stock of
all your wares. You would value them
according to their selling price at the
present time, or If you had done SO
formerly you would value them accord
ing to their cost. Then you would add
your cash on hand and on deposit, to-

about Little Joe an air of confidence La

He was now almost near enough Old
Man Coyote set himself to spring Then
he thought Of the nearness to the edge
OF that steep bank down which they
might roll into the cold, black water,
where Little Joe would be perfectly at
home while he would be almost helpless.
Right then and there Old Man Coyote
changed his mind. He didn't want
dinner enough to run any such risk.
Little Joe passed, and moment later
was sitting at the top of his slippery
slide.

coming. Even this sort of bob must
be kept well groomed, however. You
could prevent your hair falling in your

finger waving. (2) There is no way to
prevent the plucked hairs from growing

sciouSly or unwittlngly, incor-
porated the individual points OF several
other peoples writing. This may be
due to lack of imagination on her part
or it may be desire to crea1e favor
able impression.
The capital "P" seems to be a COM
bination of two letters, as the begin
ming stroke resembles the first stroke
OF a ct" This conflict between two
ideas probably Is true Of many OF her
actions. 1t may be very difficult for her
to make up her mind, changing con-
SANITY from one viewpoint to another.
l1ough it is we'll to consider both SIDES
of question before making any mo-
mentous decisions, she should learn TO
decide more quickly regarding things OF
lesser Importance
If her writing were not so even ana
well spaced the down slant of the thar
would be of greater importance. 1t may
he, however, that she suffers periods OF
depression and encouragement. These
are probably not very frequent or OF
long duration, perhaps being only the
manifestations of temporary i'll health.
The added point on the top OF the
"S' is a really unusual characteristic.
From it we would judge that she per-
hapS is of very jealous disposition.
She may try hard to overcome this
trait, realizing it would surely detract
from her popularity. If she is unable
to conquer it, she should be very care
full. for it could make her very unhappy
and discontented. Not only in her per-
sonal life would it prove handicap,
but in business also 1t might hinder her
advancement.
