. Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEVER ELDRED. When the well fed child reaches the advlescent period the mother heuves « sigh of “well earned™ rellef and consid- ers that her responsibilities have fall- en from her shoulders. Her child should by this time, so she argues, have acquired enough good habits to last him through this crucial period. Pity “tis that ‘tisn't true, .Until the child reaches adult years, it remains the duty of the mother to see that he sticks to those good habits which she has been at such pains to inculcate. One has only to notice what children in school cafeterias choose for lunch for young business girls in tea rooms) 1o realize that wisdonr in dlet does not &0 _hand in hand with added years. | ‘This is the period when young girls, | inclined to coddle themselves and hu- mor their appetites, are untempted by plain. wholesame food and satiafy | hemselves with sweets and dainties N doubtful nutritive value. <3 Boys, on the other hand, with stat- ures still imperfectly covered with fat, are possessors of stomachs with no “Bottoms.” They can't be filled up, | and_this yearning leads to habits of stuffing. and with not always desir- able “fillers.” One has to take'into account the adoiescent’s growing sense of inde- pendence and understand that he can- not be ordered to eat this and that, “because it is good for you." He'll have a perverse desire to omit it just because it is. But mothers can pro- | wvide the right foods, and what super- vision whe exercises should be subtle | and tactful. An appetizing meal, plenty of milk | (no tea or coffee) and a cheerful at mosphere is sufficient to tempt chil | dren to eat what is before them. Most giris have a desire to concoct intricate “messes” to be served to a and l Breakfasts offer a subject for con- but girls must be lured into wanting breakfasts. They should be, as (his is an important meal. Unbalanced and nervous as children tend te be, there should be no added drain upon them, and lack of a filling and satis- factory brenkfast is just that. The prevalence of facial eruptions at this time distresses the child and the mother, too. Perhaps the in- creased expenditure of energy dces cause an equally increased desire for energy foods, and this desire should be gratified by furnishing the diet with a sufficient amount ‘of sweets and starches, instead of having them pro- vided entirely by candy. If girls and boys could be made to understand that plentiful exercise, dally bathing and a diet with liberal guantities of green vegetables and fresh fruits will naturally combat the iendency ito eruptions, the child's pride will furnish the stmulus toward such a program. The youth's shaving may have something to do with his tendency to suffer frem eruptions, but not all, since girls are also victims. As for bathing, it has long been the bugaboo of the adolescent girl. The athletic girl of today has shattered a good many rules which her mother kept faithfully, and she is wise if she shatters :his nonsensical one about there being y danger connected with bathing at certain times. Daily bathing is a heaith habit every one should embrace, and a hot shower at any time will not cause consumption. | despite tales to the contrary. Hot sitz baths are valuable for the relief of pain. Be reasonable In the matter of keep- Ing ‘good sleeping hours, provide the children with amusements at the end of the week and let habit be your best ally. The child who is used to going sma plans on cake and fudge. - | to bed at 9:30 every night will be too uncomfortably’ sieepy at that time to want to.stay up. And so one more ciause for argument is vanquished. Here’s Tempting Sandwich List * Taken Here is the sandwich list of a smart tle tea room.

It is 80 irritating to be kept waiting’that none but a devoted admirer can see any excuse for it. . Do our modern clocks have some- thing to do with our being on time? Or does modern life, with its hurrying engagements, oneé right after the other, do the trick? We can give the clocks credit, It we want. Anyway, most of us find the display of modern cl and watches a delight to the eye and ‘a help to the prompt keeping engagements.
