Foods Your School Child
Needs.
A good brcakf4t to start th chil
dren off with comi.ts of milk, corn
meal mush, apple sauce. It makes
them I t for school and (it for play,
lav government specialists.
Milk, and plenty of it, makes
them grow a quart each a day, if
possible. Put it on their cereal and
in their cups. Make it into soups,
puddings or custards for them.
Whole milk is best, of course, but
skim milk is good if there is a little
butter in their meals. Cottage chre
is good, too.
No coffee or tea not even a
latte. Leave those for the grow,
ups. Milk, cocoa, not too strong,
and fruit juices are the drinks for
children, and plenty of water always.
Fruit they enjoy, and they need
it, too baked apples, apple sauce,
thoroughly ripe bananas, prunes,
oranges, etc. Give thent vegetables,
fresh if possible. Plenty of fruits
and vegetables tend to prevent con
stipation. Use proper food and do not de
pend uKn laxatives. The young
sters can't be well unless the bow
els move regularly. Don't let them
hurry off in the morning without
attending to this duty.
Other foods a child needs: Good
bread, whole wheat bread, corn
bread, well cooked oatmeal, corn
meal and rice are all excellent for
children. They help make strong
boys and girk -
Fats they must have, too. None
is better than butter. Besides the
butter on their bread, do not over
look the fat ou meats, or in gravies
and other food. An egg is good,
too, or they may have a little meat
or fish, but they do not need much.
Sweets are good for them the
right ones at the right time. Dates,
stewed fruits, simple puddings and
sugar cookies are especially good,
Give sweets at meal times.

BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
landing Her Fiance Money.
Dear Misa Fairfax: Florence and
Jim have gone about together tor
three years and contemplated mar
riage In the near future.
Recently, through no fault of his
own, Jim suffered serious business
reverses, and after meeting his many
expenses Is without funds. However,
this young man is working night
and day and expects to be on his
feet again In a couple of months.
Florence, who has a steady posi
tion, has offered to give or lend him
money to meet many little necessi
ties, since she would rather have .him
borrow from her than any one else.
He refused, claiming that it would
be most unmanly to accept It. She
argues that where there Is such won
derful understanding between two
young people a mere matter of sex
should not be allowed to interfere.
FLORENCE.
Theoretically Florence is right.
But one can't help admiring Jim for
the manliness which makes him long
to give things to the girl he loves
not to let her make sacrifices to help
him financially. This is pride of a
normal, healthy, male sort and
Florence mustn't ask her sweetheart
to sacrifice it. Jim wants to make
good on his own. He wants the girl
he loves to look up to , him. He
tfants to prove to himself that he
is not a weakling. The type of man
who lets a woman support htm is
generally despicable. And, tnougn
things would be different in this
ease, it's hard for Jim to get away
from his mental picture of the kind
of man who would borrow from a
girl. Don't deny him his independ
ence. Don't try to interfere with his
fight. He'll win and come out
stronger and better for fighting his
own way.
Her Jjost Love.
Dear Miss Fairfax: About four
years ago I went about with a young
man whom I loved and thought my
love was reciprocated. After going
with this man for about two years
we had a few words bet-.veen us and
he told me he did hot love me and
we would never be happy together.
About a year ago I met another
young man and began going with
him in hopes of forgetting JNO. l.
This young man has grown to love
me and has asked me to become ms
wife.; But I can't seem to forget No.
; I know I have gone out of the
life of No. 1 entirely, as he is now
engaged. HEARTBROKEN.
Talk the thing over with ; your
suitor. I think you'll find that once
you put the thing into words it will
seem very ' little to stand between
you and the promise of happiness.
We are all inclined to remember, a
first love. It leaves & deep impres-

My Marriage Problems
Adela Garrison's New rhaaa of
. "REVELATIONS OF A WIFE"
(Ouriftt Kit)
The Reason Madge Began to Doubt
Her Own Eyes.
Lillian and I looked at each other,
heroically concealing our mirth, as
Mother Graham with the air of hav
ing accomplished something at least
comparable to the diicovcry of Amer
ica, turned from the stove after hay.
iug prepared the coftee to her on
notion,
There!" "he '!. "That will be
something like coffee! I'll just wait
here until it's ready, and take my cup
up with me. There's a certain mo
ment when coffee is jut at its per
fection, and 1 want mine at that In
stant Then you can do what you
please with it.
She sat down in a kitchen chair,
folded her arms and watched with
critical majesty our hurried prepara
tions for the "mack" of w hich Lillian
had spoken. A leg of lamb left from
dinner, from which I carved thin
slices, home-made bread and butter,
a dikh of currant jelly, another of
apple sauce, some sliced tomatoes,
last of the garden plenty, and a half
of one of Katy't delicious layer
rakes these wc placed upon the
dining-table under Mother Graham's
inspection, and to a running accom
paniment of comment.
"Please Remember
"Isn't there any parsley in the
house?" she demanded, as I took up
the small platter of sliced meat and
started with it to the dining-room.
"That ape of a Katy generally has
sense enough to gather some fresh
every day. She likes the looks of it
herself, I reckon, or she'd never re
member it."
"Yes. there are some sprays in the
refrigerator." I said quietly.
"Then will you kindly tell me why
slon on memory but If we don't
make a fetish out of it and keep it
hidden away to worship in silence,
it's likely to fade into nothingness
in the clear air of commonsense and
daylight
The Note of Sympathy.
Dear Misa Fairfax: An old friend
recently lost his mother, and, not
seeing him to extend my sympathy,
I thought it proper to send a note.
I am engaged to be married this
June, and my folks insist that It
would be Improper to send a sym
pathy card, but wait until I met him
(which may be six months from
now). INTERESTED READER.
If you were married you would
still be subject to the rule; of po
liteness and kindness in your deal-j
ings with others. Sending a note of
sympathy to one in bereavement Is
a simple courtesy in which no friend
ought to fail. There is no possible
disloyalty to your fiance in your con
doling with an old friend in his sor
row. Docs She Love Him?
Dear Miss Fairfax: I have kntwn
a young lady for two years and I am
deeply in love with her. We go out
occasionally and have a pleasant
evening. I have several times told
my love to her. but she has never
taken me seriously. , I would like to
know what to do.
ANXIOUSLY WAITING.
Tell the girl frankly that if she
does not return your love she must,
tell you so frankly and give you a
chance to put her out of your mlnel
and your life. Make her realize that
what she seems to take so lightly ia
everything to you, and that it is not-
fair or just for her to permit you to
go on enduring this suspense. Speak
frankly and firmly and accept the
verdict like a man. She may be
merely covering her embarrassment
with a laugh. -
Going Half Way. '
Dear Miss Fairfax: My sweetheart
is very stubborn. I am broad-minded,
otherwise there would often be
a clash. My mother does not ap
prove of him. He tells me how much
he loves me, but if I wanted to give
him up for some one else he would
say nothing. He believes the girt
should always go half way. Is he
wrong in his opinion? I am 23, and
he is 21. . P. L. P.;
Why shouldn't the girl go half
way? if he is seJtisn ana exacting,
you must either accept that as part
of him and deal with it generously
or there ' isn't a chance for you to
be happy together. But, unless you
have a fine, well-balanced nature
and are willing to follow rather than
to insist on leading, I'm afraid there
are rough seas ahead.
IT is not necessary to pur- -chase
both a bread and a ,
pastry flour. By using quarter
cup of Kingsford's Corn Starch '
to three-quarter cup of any good
flour the percentage of gluten is
decreased and the starch content : ,
increased so that home prepared
flour will make a lighter and ;
finer grained cake.
If your recipe calls for four ;
eggs to one quart of milk,
use three eggs, and for the egg
omitted use half tablespoonful
of Kingsford's Corn Starch.
For amoother.glossier gravies
and sauces use a dessert spoon
ful of Kingsford's in
stead of a tablespoon?
ful of wheat flour.
For lighter, flakier
biscuits, pie crusts and
muffins, make your

you haven't out any around that
meat? That plate looks like a luncli
set out for the laundress on the
lube."
"I forgot it, I fancy," I said
apologetically, willing to eat any
amount of humble pie to Veep her
placated. "I'll fix it right awsy."
"See that you do," rhe retorted,
and I went to the pantry lo get the
parsley with an ironical little smile
quirking my "lips, I, too, like a
touch of grcrn around a pUte of cold
meat, but I had not dared thus far to
embellikh the one in my hand for
fear my mothrr-iu-law would accuie
me of trying to make the table at
tractive lor Tom LheUtr.
1 purposely lingered . over my
task a long as I dared, and waa re
warded when 1 returned by the
sight of Mother Graham drinking
the cup of coffee for which the had
waited. She drained the cup, poured
ser'rlf a second cup disdaining our
proffer of it, and rose with the cup
in her hand. .
"I'll ju.t take this upstairs with
me," she said. "Now, Mrs. I'ndrr
wood, please remember what I told
you."
"That Proves Nothing."
She marched out of the room
there Is no other word to describe
her gait with the cun of coffee held
out like a band leader's baton. We
waited tcn'cly until the closing of
her room door told ut that she was
safe for the night, and then we
laughed, noiselessly, but consuming
ly, until we were nearly helpless.
"You can't guess, I suppose," Lil
lian said at last, wiping her eye,
"what I'm to remember."
I shook my head, although a
shrewd notion of her meaning had
come to me. But I could not ac
knowledge it to Lillian. .
"I'm to see that you conduct your
self with the propriety and general
demeanor of an 18th century young
matron, she said. "If you were a
convent-bred young thing about to
meet the, world for the first time she
couldn't be more solicitous: So do
promise me you'll behave. Look
here, if you dare to take that or your
mother-in-law srriously. I'll I'll
spank you, if it's the last thing I
ever do."
Her sudden change of manner
saved me from the humiliation of
angry tears. And then, with sure
divination of the best way to divert
my mind, she spoke authoritatively:
icll me now. before Tom Chester
gets here. what, did you mean up
there in Katie's room when vou said
that it wasn't Smith who looked into
the room, but a boy?"
"Why. it was a boy." I said, and
then, as my memory flashed again
the picture orthe face 1 had seen, 1
hesitated.
At least it was a boy s wool stock
ing cap, and a boy's sweater that I
glimpsed," I said slowly. "The cap
was drawn down almost over the
eyes, and the collar of the sweater
was turned up and fastened, high
about the neck. But the little of the
face I could see in between was all
ruddy and fresh like a boy's and the
lips were red."
"That proves nothing," she said,
"except that the gifted Mr. Smith
probably possesses a make-up box
