Mrs. Uepow In a recent interview on the
care and education of children uttered some
noiablo truths. Among other thlnes she
ispolto of permitting her children to hnvo a
bowl of bouillon or broth of some sort , when
they cnmo In from their dnlly walks , ospo-
tlafly In winter. To eatbotwccn meals H with
jiany careful mothers a habit that is promptly
.suppressed ; as many others , however , llnd
that the lltilo loins cannot go five hours
without online , as Is necessary from
A 1'J o'clock luncheon to a 5 o'clock dinner.
School children particularly crave and
seem to need something to ent on reach-
inj : homo from lessons. To establish a regu
lar fourth meul ut this hour , which , of
coui'so , should bo of the lightest character ,
Is a rule of many households. The children
Eocm to thrive upon it , uml without It are
fretful and disinclined to undertake either
jluy ) or moro study. For dyspopsm or any
lorni of delicate digestion , physicians ndvo-
rnto frequent outing nt regular Intervals.
The same principle applies to growing chil
dren.
An edict of Mrs. Dopow's , however , to
which many mothers will tnko serious ob
jection is that which forbids fairy stories.
"I do not allow them to read fairy stories. 1
do not think It well for thorn to do so. In-
stond 1 glvo thorn uiUircstlng ana instructive
books of hUtory to read , " Mrs. Oopew is
quoted as saying. A cnlld who is shut away
Jronj "Slnbad the Sailor" and "Tho Fisher
man nnit the Ocml , " from Hans Anderson
and Oirlmm , mi a all the rest down to "Alice
in Wonderland. " socms to ho shorn of
his very birthright. The delicious hours
spent in believing In fairies and gno'iios mul
olvcs , In watching the moonbeams and listen
ing for the tlnklo of fairy music , in slyly
rubbing a ring and trembling lost its dread
ful slave should como , then stalling because
ho docs not thvso are precious memories
when Hfo sotllos into a dull reality. It seems
a pity to deprive anyone of them.
