GIVE THE BABY APPLE
 AND BANANA

Quoting from The Bray Better Baby Book, '36 edition-what, no copy in your house? All right, if you won't risk a dime and a stamped addressed envelope to give the baby a better break
 1. At the age of four or five months begin feeding the baby ripe banana daily. The skin of ripe banana is golden yellow, fiecked with brown spots, not black bruise marks; the pulp is yellow. sweet and soft but not rnushy. Only about a teaspoonful daily at first, grad- ually increased week by week until the baby takes half a banana at the age of eight months. This solves the constipation problem and makes puny, sickly, badly nourished in- fants thrive.
 The common notion 3hat bananas are difficult to digest is based upon the practice of eating them before they are ripe. Bananas, like apples or other fruit when green contain considerable starch. Starch is not so easy for an infant to digest, eS- pecially uncooked starch. But the ripening process naturally converts most or all of the starch in fruit to easily digested sugars. Bananas, like oranges, apples and other fruit ripen best in the sun on the tree. But bananas kept at a moderate room temperature, not too cold for cold prevents ripening, ripen near ly as well as they do in the sun on the tree. The baby,s daily banana feeding, by the way, Is the con- venient time to administer the daily vitamin D ration for the pre- vention of rickets and to promote development of good teeth and bones and nerves and muscles, al explained in the aforementioned baby book.
 Banana is more nutritious than potato, contains good quantities of vitamins A, B, c and c, and yields significant amounts of calcium. magnesium, phoSphorous, iron, sul.. phur and copper. It is alkaline. The sugars of banana are not only easily digested and readily ab-. sorbed (for immediate muscular energy) but also tend to favor the growth of the acid producing bac- teria and to combat the putrefac- tive type of bacteria in the intes- tine. No reason why even a sickly infant eight or ten months old should not take one or two bananas daily, ani infants over 8 year old may advantageously eat half a dozen daily. a
 Banana powder is available in the stores. It is second only to the fresh ripe banana pulp for infant feeding, The spray-dried banana powder retains most of the natural vitamin A, B and 0.
 Scraped raw apple is now used in the diet of young infants with acute diarrhea or intestinal trouble. with highly satisfactory results. An exclusive raw apple diet is ex- cellent in the treatment of acute diarrhea or dysentery in adults -- nothing but raw apple, as much as the patient wants, and perhaps a little weak tea without milk or

 If you can afford to go to repu- table salon to have an expert tell you what is wrong with your skin, hair, figure, and how to ccrreco the defects, by all means do so. But if you can't don't worry too much CT decide that it Is useless to try to improve yourself. Learn to be your own diagnostician, severest critic, favorite beauty operator.
 Anyone can check her own pos- ture. Stand in you accustomed manner before a full-length mir TOT and be truly critical of your figure. Does your stomach pro- trude or is it drawn up and in nice and flat? Are the shoulders square, chest high, backbone straight so no exaggerated hollow shows, head up and neck straight? Write down each of the things wrong with your posture, Then do sSecial exercises to ccr- rect them.
 Stand against a flat wall with bare feet about eight inches away from the baseboard and back bone pressed firmly against the. hard surface. Notice that when the hollow in the center of the spinal column is eliminated, stomach does not protrude and hips look inches simmer. Touch fingertips to shoulders, without hunching shoulders Forward Raise arms pressing elbows against the wall. Relax and repeat. This teaches you to. hold your chest high and gets rid of lump on the back of your neck.
 To test the importance of neat grooming, put little or no makeup on face and lips, don 8 wrinkled dress, set an old, dingy felt hat atop of straggly, frousled coiffure, then walk four blocks down the street. Make mental notes of how you feel during this stroll.
 Now go home and devote one hour to beauty routine. Clean face and throat, cover with cream and leave 1t on while you take a warm bath. Afterward, re- move the cream, pat skin with tonic or ice water, brush hair for five minutes, whisk nails into shape, apply makeup ever so carefully.
 Put. on a neat dress, your best hat and freshly sl1ined shoes. Walk the same four blocks. Only, of course, you will not stop at four this time. You'll feel :, so much better that you probably will stroll . mile or two and drop in to see q neighbor on your way home, meanwhile vowing never to look dowdy again.

But sometimes l think we do too much protecting. Not that cau- tion can ever be discarded, but oyer precaution may become a habit.
 We will allow John to go along with the nature-study class, out to the woods to observe swelling buds, and coloring branches, but we might not allow a dozen boys to go on a hike for the fun of it. If we allowed a dozen, we might not allow two, even though we con- vinced ourselves that they were all most entirely safe.
 Boys prefer to work out indi- vidual plans, rather than be mere ly part of the program. There is no adventure to program. There is nothing of derring -do in. 1t. And everyone knows that just a little element of risk is what makes ad- venture.
 Lessons Are Valuable
 The child will learn valuable lessons, too, if he lis. faced with his own responsibility, learn to pro- tect himself rather than depend upon protection. t
 It's almost time for the old swimming hole, the bane of all mothers since time began. Since time began, too, boys have slipped of and grown up to brag about 1t.
 Not that am recommending just any old place to swim. but stating a fact. In the springtifme our chil- dren run the sap high, and they want to gel out and try some bud ding in their own way. :, It might be as well not to hold the reins too tightly. When we de- prive a people of the right to risk, they soften and give too much ground to fear. To face problems and overcome them is life itself. So II leave this thought to you. Are you being overly apprehensiye about your growing child? Are you, from habit, withholding consent from normal and, we'll say, reason ably safe adventure?
