WOMAN’S PAGE. Facts About a Popular Beverage BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Perhaps the usual glass of iced tea will seem less casual and more roman- tic even to a tea Jover if we realize that the infusion is made from what really a species of camelia, and that, only the upper right-hand leaf below the bud has been used; that less than three centuries ago such a luxury the beverages so featured. Tn America the value of millk is appreciated and its being included on menus is to be expected. Tt is rather hearty, perhaps, for the climes where it is omittel Leing considered more of a llgnid food than a drink to be quaffed at meal- time. Lemon for Americans. Tea served with lemon is an Ameri- can idea, apparently, for the lemon is never included in the great tea-drink- to cater to Ameri there. It is not fol- people except in rare instances. But, then, iced tea, which so decidedly calls for lemon | siices, is not an English beverage. Tea plain or with milk is what they want. | By the way, tea should be served with milk, not cream, for the cream does well with the particular, , acid of tea. Lemon or Mixed Flavors. Here in America we are beginning to add more things to our concocting of tea beverages, whether hot or cold. In exclusive tearooms trays are passed holding not only lemon but orange slices, cloves, preserved ginger, mint and maraschino cherries. A combi nation of several of these in one cup makes a wonderful beverage to Ameri- cans, but not to an Englishman. Facts of Interest. It may be interesting to know that the term by which tea is called comes either from the countries or sections of country where the tea is grown or from the process by which it is made ready for market. For instance, teas are chiefly from Formosa, Java, China, Japan and India. The names of colors, such as black and green, refer to the methods of drying the leaves. The black tea is dried im- mediately, while the green is steamed THE DIARY OF A NEW FATHER BY BOB DICKSO: Tuesday evening Well, T had to ask the boss today to let me start my vacation next Sun- day, on account of Joan would not kive me any breakfast this morning until T promised to ask him, and al- though once in a while I like that guy on account of him letting me do some- thing I like, T do not think so much of him right now on account of he is going to let me do something my wife likes. t breakfast start your vacs sald, Sunday Joan ion “It you we can g0 home with brother Bill when he starts back."

Everyday Law Cases Must Railicay Company Provide Heated Cars for Its Passengers? BY THE COUNSELOR. Mrs. Shelby, who resided in Louis- ville, boarded an electric car of the Inter-City Railway Co. at Melville City junction with a ticket to Louis- ville. It was a cold, windy evening, and the car was not heated. She was thinly clad and had no wrap. When the car arrived at Midway Station, the current suddenly became so weak that the car was compelled THE CLINK OF ICE IN THE GLASS AND THE ADDITION OF A MUD- DLER OR STRAWS MAKES THE BEVERAGE PARTICULARLY TEMPTING TO AMERICANS. was known only to royalty or those fabulously rich in the Anglo-Saxon world, and that the price of the best was $50 a pound.

When the car finally pulled into Loufsville at 1 a.m., she was in a chilled and shaken con- diition. For three weeks Mrs, Shelby was forced to remain in bed. After she recovered, Mrs. Shelby brought suit against the electric rail- way company, which defended itself on ‘the ground that the breakdown of the current was an accident and could not have been foreseen and guarded against. But Mrs. Shelby recovered a verdict of $1,000. “The general rule is that a railroad company must provide for the com- fort of its passengers by furnishing reasonable heating for its cars. If it fails to perform this duty and its passengers suffer thereby and are made sick as a result, the company is liable in damages.” (Covyright. 1927.)

For a very refreshing drink, muke some ordinary lemonade and sweeten with maple sirup instead of sugar. To make lemon whey, add two tea- spoonfuls of lemon juice to one-fourth cupful of milk and let stand for five minutes. Strain through cheesecloth and serve. This is a nourishing drink and is served to invalids also. Answer to Yesterday’s Puzzle.

Hard World Youngsters MONG my acquaintances is a woman who is the mother of four spoiled brats that are a terror to all who know them. These children are growing up utterly undisciplined and without control. They have their every wish indulged, so far as is possible, and their every whim humored. They are never made to do anything they do not wish to do. No duties or obligations of any kind are laid upon them. Their mother waits upon hand and foot, and permits them to say insulting and abusive things in their tantrums. When remonstrated with for the way in which she is bringing up her children, this mother always defends herself by saying that she is poor and can’t give her children the things that rich people give theirs, so she tries to malke it up to them by indulging them at home. “That might be some excuse,” T protested to her, “if they were always going to stay little children, though why you want to create a projudice against them while they are mere infants that will follow them as long as they live, goodness only knows. But the trouble is they aren't going to stay children. In a few more years they will be grown up, and then you will turn out on the world men and women that you have utterly unfitted for life. “For you have made them soft where you should have made them hard. You have fostered their weakness instead of developing their strength. You have taught them to be slackers and quitters when you should have taught them to he good soldiers who would carry on to the end. You have culti- vated tastes and habits in them that will handicap them and foredoom them to failure unless they have the vision and the courage to put up a heartbreaking fight against them. “Believe me, when you spoil your children you do them a greater wrong than malice itself could invent. LR GJROR the world into which your children will presently go isn't going to be soft-padded with mother love. Nobody is going to coddle your precious darlings’ little feelings and sensibi and make excuses for their little pet weaknesses and shortcomings. nger will care a hoot about John s artistic temperament or Mar disposition. “All the world asks is: Can you deliver the goods? And so often it is mother who makes it so tragically hard or even impossible for her children to do so. “For how can you expect the boys and girls who have been petted and pampered all of their lives, and who have known no law except their own sweet wills, to stand the stern discipline of life? As well might you look to see a lounge lizard who is fat and soft, and who has been fed on lollipops, win out in a prizefight. “It is these spoiled children, who have never been disciplined, or made to do anything they didn’t want to do, who constitute the great army of the shiftless, who are always changing from occupation to occupation, and job to job, and who never arrive anywhere, or succeed at anything. “They don't know it, but what they are hunting for is an employer who will treat them the way mother treated them, and for a situation that will have all the emoluments of home. And there are no such employers and no such jobs in a severely practical world. “They have never heen trained to endurance, and so they turn quitters when work gets hard and monotonous, and it takes a real grit to stick at your post and carry on. They have never been disciplined, and so they cannot take orders, and are in a perpetual row with those above them. They have never been taught self-control,' and so they are irritable and hard to get along with and flare into tempers that cost them their jobs. s e 0w “AL\VAYS they are selfish and egotistic, and consider themselves ill-used because they are required to punch the time clock, and turn out reasonably good work, and because they are not at once put at the heads of departments and permitted to dictate the policy of the firm. “Look around among the people you know who are failures, and you will find that almost invariably they were spoiled children who never could adjust themselves to life. They never could get over the weakness that their mother bred in them. Her petting and indulgences had softened the very fiber of their souls and they never had the strength and courage to stand the gaff. “And it is these spoiled children that keep the divorce courts busy. The real disillusionment of marriage comes when husbands and wives dis- cover that the partners of their bosoms a not going to spoil them the way mother did. Mother would stand for anything. Mother demanded nothing for herself. Mother gave all, expecting no return. Mother called temper ‘nerves’ and laziness ‘temperament,’ and she put up with ‘ways’ and loved on, no matter how badly she was treated. “The husband who has been a spoiled child expects his wife to adopt the same tactics toward him, and when she doesn't and expects him to act like a reasonable human being and give her a fair deal, there are ructions in the family. “The wife whose mother has spoiled her expects her husband to keep on with the program, and to realize that she can't be expected to do any- thing except to amuse herself, and that she must have beautiful clothes, no matter how hard he has to work to get them for her, and that she must be petted and flattered and cajoled to keep her in a good humor, and when husband fails to understudy mother and expects wife to do her part in mak- ing a_comfortable home, why wife cries out that he doesn't understand her and she packs up her doll rags and goes back to mother. “If only mothers could realize what harm they do their children by spoiling them, what tragedies could be averted, how many lives could be saved from disaster, and how much pleasanter a_ place the world would be for the balance of us who have to endure the affliction of the unspanked BY HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOR.

I'm going to be pitcher if Sol doesn’t beat me out. Please give me a quarter so I can get ahead of him.” “But I can’t give you a quarter for such a thing as that. You have to take it out of your allowance. Or earn it extra."” “I'll earn it extra then. Lend me it.” “I haven’t any change. Stop in and ask your father for it."” Jim hurried out. He had no time to spare if he was to stop at the store and see his father and be in time for school. Once on the sidewalk he ran like a deer. He persuaded his father to lend him a quarter and raced to school. A week had passed by when his mother said, “Jim, did you mail that letter I gave you last Tuesday?” “A letter? What letter? I don’t remember any letter.” “Don't tell me yvou forgot to mail that letter. I distinctly told you to remember it.” “I don’t remember any letter.” “James Furgeson, you're the most empty-headed boy in this town. Your head is a sieve. Of course I gave you a letter. I told yvou to remember to mail it at the corner. Your head was 50 full of base ball there was no room for anything else in it.

His mind was full of some- thing that deeply interested him. He had told his mother all about that and had talked it over with her and she had sent him off to try his luck with his father. School was pressing. Un- der the circumstance$ was he likely to remember to mail a letter that had been handed him before the matter of the base ball dues came up? The most experienced among us can keep our minds fixed upon one thing for a very short time and that when we are deeply interested. ‘When you want a child to remem- ber anything make sure first that you have his whole attention. Then slow- ly and distinctly tell him what you want done, and if it is important ex- plain why. Be sure that you choose the time when the child’s mind is at your service and not actively engaged on something close and personal like base ball. Don't delay about check- ing up the errand. Waiting a week to know whether it was done promptly or not is likely to lead to forgetful- ness. We remember what interests us most. So do the children. (Covyright. 1927.) .
