Food should not be given between meals, since it tends to destroy the appetite for food at meals. Tn ad- dition to control of diet, ample rest, fresh air and sunshine will stimulate the appetite, aid diges- tion, and encourgae assimilation of the food that is taken. Dr. Iszac Abt pointed out that there is no such thing as uniform human architecture and that all children are not destined to be of the same stature. The fat child is not necessarily a healthful child, nor is the lean one always a sick one. The physical state of the tissues is a good indication of nu- trition, as well as the very rough standards of height and weight. Dr. Abt does not believe that a child should be fed five times & day after it is over two years of age, but thinks itbest to permit the child to become hungry &0 that the appetite will be good . nd the digestion prompt.
