Mrs. Rhodes she understands children and gives them what they want in amusements. Every game has vlace on her schedules. She fills the zap between the desire and the courage, effort or energy to indi- vidually complish that desire. Furthermore the establishment of a playground in a locality means a ng of the morale, a diminution the delinquency. Twenty-five and children in the Capital City regard Mrs. Rhodes as a deified Mrs. Santa Claus. Americanization is taught through the games, and story telling and the traditions and legends »f the land of the Stars and Stripes made very real and personal through the holiday celebrations, in which all | are helped and coaxed to participate. Mrs. Rhodes has made the play ground the finest possible supple: ment to the work of the schools, the church and the best homes.

The delicate child usually requires alf heur of moderate exercise in one form and another every day. The exer- ise is best adapted and supervised by a physician or the trained physical direc- tor.

A great many school children in their ‘teens are sadly mollycoddled by their misguided mothers on the theory that the children have “weak heart"— whatever that may mean. The best pos- | sible thing for such children is physical training, in the majority of cases. E: | pecially is this true of many girls who dodge physical education by taking ad- vantage of the morbid notions so many mothers still have about these matters. As important as daily exercise is a daily rest period for the delicate child. He should lie down. preferably in the open air, for 30 to 60 minutes at a regular time each day cher there (Copyright.)

Serve with mace- doine of vegetables. To make this, boil separately one bunch of small carrots and one bunch of small white turnips cut in small pleces.

Roll in flour and brown evenly in butter |in a frying pan. Put into a deep casserole. Add one-half a cupful of hot water for each squab. Cover and cook at a simmer for one-half an hour. For each squab chop two stoned olives and a small sprig of parsley. Add a few drops of onion Juice and allow to cook in one tea- sponful of butter for 3 minutes, stirring meanwhile. Add two table- spoonfuls of orange juice. Spread some toast with this olive mixture, and place in the oven for 5 minutes.

He has fallen in love with a splendid woman and wants to marry her, Lut he cannot do so if he has to be the sole support of his mother. He has applied to his brothers and sis- ters for help, but with one accord they make excuse. This one has many children, that one is buying a home. Another has a poorly paid job.

In their vounger days they looked forward to the normal life of women—husband and home and chil- dren of their own. But somebody had to look after mother and father, and somehow the job fell to Martha. That kept Martha from marrying, and it has kept her from doing any of the interesting things that women do nowadays. It's Kept her dependent and poor, because she couldn't &0 away to earn her living, although i she had worked half as hard at any outside occupation s she has at home she would have made a fortune ARTHA is just as much a prisoner in the dull old house if she were locked in a prison celi.

ONE BY ONE HE SCOOPED THOSE LITTLE FISH OUT AND ATE THEM. low. There ought to be some fish in some of the little shallow pools. My, my, my, how good a fat trout would taste!” So Bobby Coon headed for the Laughing Brook. He didm't hurry. There was no use in hurrying. Truth to tell, he was fat. But he wanted to get still more so. He headed straight for a certain little pool he knew of. He approached it very slowly and quietly. The moon was shining. Bobby was glad of that. It shone right into that little pool. His eyes sparkled. There were several little fish in that shallow pool. They had been trapped there by the falling wa- ter. There was no way for them to get back into the Laughing Brook. For a little while Bobby Coon w perfectly happy. One by one h scooped those little fish out, washed them and ate them. When he had caught and eaten the last one he tried to make up his mind where to go next. It was still early in the night. He didn’t nt to go back home. He decided he would go down the Laugh- ing Brook. Bobby dearly loved to wander along the Laughing Brook. Perhaps he might find another pool with fish in it. He didn't really need any more fish that night, but, as I said before, he could always eat a little more. So Bobby wandered down along the bank of the Laughing Brook. Pres- ently he caught sight of something bright in the water. It shone in the moonlight. Anything bright and shiny always interests Bobby Coon. He sat down close to the edge of the water and stared at it. It was only a little below the surface of the water and seemed to be partly buried in the sand, Bobby reached in a black paw and got hold of it. It was stuck in the sand.

Buying the Bedstead. No single plece of furniture for your home is more important than the bed. And you must, therefore, select it not only with an eye to beauty and durability, but must con- sider it as a means of material com- fort. Now, bedsteads are of two kinds, wooden and metal. And of the metal kinds they are usually either of brass or of iron covered with enamel or other finish. But before you take up the subject of materials you had beter consider other factors which are fundamental in any good bed. Beds must be comfortable, first of all! So select one of size to fit—not too closely—the person who is to occupy it.” If you are buying it for an old person, an invalid or a little child. you must also make sure that its height above the floor is not too great for convenience. See that the bed you buy is firmly put together, and that the joints. especially those where the foot and head boards meet the side rails, are tight and solid. And be sure the bed stands squarely on the floor. ‘When it comes to consideration of the esthetic, the fine wooden bed is an excellent choice, for it unsurpassed eclegance and charm. It may match the other furniture in the has an | too, not only as to period- metal beds, too, do that—but as to material. However, it is not best to buy the wooden bed unless you have either time to care for it yourself, or servants to do it for you. The brass bed is the most expensive among the metal types, but it has not only beauty, but sanitation, in its favor. The main thing to con- sider in buying a brass bed is the weight of the materlal in relation to the price. A bed of solid brass tubing is much more valuable than one of mere veneer tubing. In « veneer tube bed the case tubing mus be bent to accord with the post of the bed, and you can tell it by the seam at the back part of the brass posts and tubes. Beds of other metallic stuff—often iron—are now made, not only with white enamel, but with such othe: finishes that they can resemble almost any wood. Such beds ar cheaper than brass ones, and they are ordinarily good-looking, sanitary and durable, as well. A good metal bed should have welded corners, no sign of a tube seamed, and firm Joints room, A powder made from fish, which will increase hun 1 height, has been com- pounded by a Japanese scientist.
