LUNCH—WHAT SHALL IT BE?
School time brings additional du
ties to mothers as well as to chil
dren. So much home study is re
quired and nearly all children study
more intelligently if they get the
right kind of help at home, and also
the necessary persuasion.
Aside from this is the very import
ant problem, the lunch. It must be
something light and nourishing, be
cause of the short time allowed for
eating.
We are being urged by good clinics
to return to some old customs from
which we had departed. Provide
milk for each child’s lunch. Make the
milk bottle become as popular as the
dainty sandwiches which are a part
of the every day lunches. Make the
sandwiches of whole wheat, Graham
or rye bread; something to make rich
blood, nourish and strengthen. Fill
ing of chopped meat (not fried), cot
tage cheese, nuts, home-made jam or
jelly. Cookies or a light cake and
fruit are also recommended.
Mothers are warned against per
mitting children to make their break
fasts of hot cakes and syrup, white
bread and coffee, but urged to feed
a nourishing meal of fruit, whole
wheat bread, toast, eggs, cereal and
milk.
Remember, a quart of milk a day
forYvery child. A little girl we know
is ready with her glass to get it
filled as soon as the milk is strained
and drinks it warm. She is thriving
on it, too.
It has been found that many a
child has failed in a lesson when his
stomach, and not his brain, was at
fault. So many childitn are found
to be overfed and undernourished.
That is why mothers are careful to
provide the food needed and to feed
that and nothing else.
OCTOBER’S PRIZE OFFER.
October is making a bid for yotir
cosmetic bill. It is ,a fair and hon
est offer and will be found a paying
proposition by all who accept it. An
hour or so of time each day, the only
requirement—an hour or two in the
open in woods or fields or along the
by-ways cut off from the dusty road
side. Not the jagged end of your
time, but an hour when the body is
rested so as to obtain best results.
And how shall the time be spent?
Just as you please: chasing butter
flies if you like; there are so many
pretty yellow ones that offer a chase.
Grasshoppers and crickets,' too, will
prove evasive ^ame, but a box of
them would delight girls who use
them in the study of biology. Black
birds fly across the sky about sunset
in great droves and in looking up
to watch them you may see other
things even more beautiful and inter
esting. But if Vou don’t want to
play with the happy live things, just
walk and look and listen, see and feel
the delightful deliciousness of every
thing, then when you lie down at
night to rest recall all the lovely
things you saw and felt over and
over until sleep enfolds you.
The prize? The most perfect
rouge ever mnaufactured, a complex-
oin beautifier and a tonic that makes
eyes bright and rounds the contour
of the face. Try it.

A shoe that has paper and other substi

quickly breaks down under dampness. No

Here is the daily routine for a
loi^ and happy life concisely given
by an imminent doctor. There are
no new suggestions, but it needs to
be told over and over again until it
guides to perfect growth every boy
and girl, man or woman.
The rules are prefaced with a
warning. It is all good to read, bet
ter to remember and best to practice.
“It is too bad that sickness cannot
be reserved for the lazy and useless
members of society, persons who like
to loaf around and do nothing worth
while.
“But nature hds a way of getting
so much rest for everybody. If you
work too hard and rob yourself of
rest and sleep, you may count on
one certain thing—you will pay for
this neglect and over-exertion in one
of two ways; You will have a severe
illness, or else you will die before
your time.
“Nature demands certain things
and if you do not govern yourself
accordingly, you will have an enforc
ed vacation.
“Perfect living consists in eating
the right quantities of proper foods,
drinking plenty of pure water, keep
ing clean, working every day at' some
worth-while job, getting into sun
shine and open air each day, having
a reasonable amount of agreeable
recreation, sleeping soundly every
night in a well-ventilated bedroom,
and thinking good thoughts all the
time.
“Active hatred will shorten life. It
wears out the heart, impairs diges
tion and floods the body with angry
toxins.
“You must be happy to live ’or.g.
You cannot be happy unless you are
worthily occupied. You are not so
occupied unless you are doing some
thing to make the world better.
“Cleanliness is next to godliness,
we are taught. Lots of water, in
side and out, and soap used for ex
ternal cleansing, are essential to
your health and long life.
“The simpler your life the better,
Simple food ’n moderation and de
liberate eating will promote diges
tion. Early to bed and early to rise
is a rule as good now as when it was
first promulgated.
“Stretching your muscles in the
sunshine and filling your lungs to
the very bottom w'th pure air w. 11
add warmth and color to your blood.
“Complete your day by doing
some deed of kindness or mercy.
You will benefit more than the re-
cipient of your thoughtful act.
“These are the ingredients of a
prescription which will add happy
years to your life of usefulness. ’
