German help, remember. Women
there are simply devoted to their

appreciate a great variety of all
ments.
This last is decidedly an asset, for
the person who has cultivated an
appreciation of many flavors will
derive both enjoyment and benefit
from ali meals. The child whose
early vagaries of appetite have
been Permitted to go unchecked
generally develops into finicky
person whose taste limits the
range of her menus and whose di-
ct will, in consequence, have nei-
Their the proper variety nor bal
ance.
Many parents look upon a child s
whims as sign of fastidiousness
which should be catered to. This is
particularly true of the city bred
child who hasn't the benefit of the
bracing air and outdoor exercise to
whet her appetite. But the way to
build up a sturdy interest in food
where this regime is lacking is not
by trying to entice it with special
dishes at unreasonable hours,
yielding in this to the child's cap
rice. The satisfaction which the
mother may derive from seeing
her little girl dispose of a special
dainty does not offset the effect
this habit will have on the child $
health and beauty later on.
Plenty of exercise in the fresh
air is the best way in which to en-
courage a recalcitrant appetite. l
advise mothers to take their chill
dren out. When the appetite is
sharpcned by fresh air and play,
simple, wholesome food will be
relished. Cereals, wholewheat
bread, stewed fruit, particularly
pruncs and rhubarb, should have
an important place in the diet of
an anaemic and constipated child.
And at least quart of milk should
be taken every day. The slightly
Tactic products (of which there is
a growing variety on the market)
are excellent for children. They
are bsst when taken with biscuits,
crackers and fruit, If eaten at the
same time, should be stewed.
At 3 o'clock, for instance, when
the average child begins to feel
hungry, a light repast of rice
flakes, shredded wheat or one of
the other prepared cereals with
cream and fruit may be served,
or a bit of cottage cheese and jelly
on crackers with glass of butter
| milk.

So it is draw.
In this Homeland children are
treated as children, and elders still
seem to have a few rights. The lit
tie tots are taught the first elements
of obedience almost from cradle
days, and they are wonderfully well
behaved. The noisy, disobedient
youngsters of italy and America
would not be tolerated for a mo-
ment. In Germany the elders do
not play with the. children as they
do here and in other countries.
They leave them to the business of
entertaining and employing them
selves-with, of course, proper d.
rection.
Likewise, the German mother
governs her children herself. She
does not leave them overlong with
nurses and governesses as is the
custom in many other countries.
Often she still teaches the little
girls-sometimes the boys, toto

the taste of vegetables. It Is an
easy matter to extend his taste for
vegetables as he grows older. In
fact he should be quite a cosmo-
politian in his food habits by the
time he reaches school age.
Vegetable pies or esealloped
dishes are delicious as the main
course for dinner on hot summer
DAYS. Try them in place of a meat
dis hoccasiona1ly -. your fam
lily will like them.
Here is recipe that will prove
delicious as main dish:
/ pine cooked potatoes
1 teaspoon salt
IA teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons sliced onion
2 tablespoons fat
2 cups medium white sauce
l cup cooked peas
IL cup cokoed carrots
1-2 cup green pepper
IL cup grated cheese
Cook the raw sliced onion in the
fat, add the potatoes (diced), and
cook the two together one minute.
Then combine all the vegetables
and white sauce. Pour into
creased casserole, in alternate lay
ers with the grated cheese. Gar
nish with cracger crumbs on top
of the cheese. Bak efor 10 min

A scheme which keeps fresh
peaches from discoloring after cut
ting is the following: After they
are peeled and sliced, squeeze ov-
err them the juice of lemon and
they will keep fresh looking for
many hours. The lemond also adds
to the flavor of the fruit.

Biscuit Tarts

Make very short biscuit dough
(by adding twice the usual short
ening) roll the soft dough until it
is about one-eight inch thick; cut
with a large biscuit cutter twice as
many foundation pieces as you
need to serve. Use half for the
bottoms of the tarts; with a small
Ter biscuit cutter, cut out centers
of the remaining rounds. Brush the
large rounds with melted butter,
then lay the outer rings on top,
put a spoonful of jelly or jam in
each tart and bake in a hot oven
for 20 minutes. With the small
cut-outs you can make delicious
little tea cakes If you will brush
them with butter and sprinkle
lightly with sugar and ground
nuts.
Just before putting biscuits in
the oven try placing on top of
each lump of loaf sugar that has
been dipped in orange juice and
grated peel. Served with fresh
cottage cheese they are most de-
licious.

settled. Take your coffee along
hot or iced as you prefer it. If you
are just out of vacuum bottles,
however, or have only an infant
size, then invite the family drip
pot to ride with you and make
fresh, fragrant coffee right on the
spot.
But no blackened, ruined pot, re-
remember. Let the utensil stand
aside while over the beach or
camp fire you heat water to boil
ing in a little camp kettle kept for
the purpose, and pour it quickly
over the ground coffee in inn
