Milk contains every necessary ele
ment needed b.v the jouog child for lU
growth and well-being, and for the busj
mother it eliminates the cooking between
meals. One quart of a good grade of
hiilk will cquai in food value
Eight eggs or
'- Three-quarters pound lean beef,
Three Dints of ousters.
Three pounds fresh codfish,
Three-quarters pound of pork or
Tico-thirds pound of ham.
The fat soluble A or the living
vital element, found in milk is apeen
fary for physiral well-being and
growth. The lack of this element by
the absence of milk in the child's diet
is the ral cause of many ills which
doctors declare are due to a faulty diet.
Water soluble P. one of the newly
dlscotercd fond elements, is present in
milk. Noted physicians declare tb.ii
element i neeessarii for nutrition and
Srovvth, and for this reaon one quart
of milk with a variety of other foods
is necessarv to the joung child. Teach
the baby to eat well -cooked cereals; do
not sweeten if possible : the less sugar
the young child cats, the better hl I
digestion will be , teach baby to eat from
a apoon very slowly, and to drink bv
sipping slowly from a cup or glass.
Care of Baby's Milk
Take the milk at once upon its de
livery to the house and wash bottle
under running water, wipe and icmove
the cap and turn glass down over the I
top. Set milk in part of refngator set
aside for milk, butter and eggs. Placing
it close to strong-flavored' foods will,
spoil the milk. If you do not have ice I
in the winter time, place the milk in a i
pail rnd fill to within thrpp inches of
the top with cold water and set in roo
place where it vv ill not freeze ; mill:
left to freeze is not the proper food for
baby, and is apt to disturb his digestion.
When making cream soups, cocoa,
junket, custards and puddings, cook
enough for two or three mcils and then
cool, cover and et in refrigator or'
cool place.

She Likes Them, Too
Dear Cynthia May I toy a few
words to "An American"?
I am a girl twenty years old and have
gone with men both from the army and
navy, und do not think the nitm meD
preferable.
This last year I have gone entirely
with one Failor. and I have met a great
many of his chums, and let -me say eo
nicer men could be found anywhere.
I, am virtually engaged to him now and
very proud of it.
Just became one or two sailors have
been wrong is no reason why wc should
condemn the whole navy,
I have heard people talk about sailors
being drunkards and dance-hall run
ners, but my conclusions to these state
ments are that when n sailor goes ou
board a ship he usually stays on board
for months without auy pleasure to re
lieve the monotony of his work. Natur
ally when he reaches land he seeks, the
dance halls, where he is sure of a good
time.
If people would only look at n sailor
rrom a standpoint that includes both
His work nnd pleasures, they would not
condemn him so quickly.

of fine straw trims the bat at the right

A Parchment Shade
To tlw Editor ol Woman's Paae:
Dear Madam Would it be possible
for you to give me directions for pre
paring the parchment to be used for
n lampshade, as well as the kind of
paints to be used in the decoration? If
joii cannot supply this information
could you refer mo' to some one else?
M. NV
There is an imitation parchment that
is often used for making these shades,
which is less expensive than the rcul
parchment, and not so crackly. You can
buy it at stores where urtists' supplies
arc sold. There is n fluid which comes
that makes the parchment transparent
when it is put over it. It is simply
painted on with a brush. Then, after
this dries, jou arc ready for the decorat
ing. Kithcr oil or water-color paints can
be used. If water colors are used the
transparent fluid should be put.,on tho
under side of the parchment. If you use
oil it doesn't matter where the fluid is
put.

stains or spots bo removed from a

THAT FEELING THAT COMES
JUST. BEFORE THE SPRmG
It Is a Sort of Vague Desire for Nothing in Particuiur )VI
Not Follow the Example of Green Things and Grow?
TOMORROW Lent begins. And with
Lent conies that inevitable spring
feeling. It nny bo cold, the sl: ig may
be still good, there may be snow on
the ground and icicles on the roof, but
there Is n feeling of spring thnl tomes
with the ml'ldle of .Trbrunry that is
impossible to escape. It is n sort of
rttgue yearning. You vvun.t something,
and you don't know whnt it Is. You
want to ict away, and you don't know
where or -oni what. More thnn nny
thlng lsc sou war. tV) Jtnnvv what' It is
that u want, where you want to go,
und why.
You are listless, tiled aud the busiest
day of the week finds yov sitting idly,
dreaming vaguely, indefinitely, nbout
nothing In particular. Then things pile
up beforp you, nnd you have to work
harder than ever to get rid of (hem nil,
and you forget for u time but ns soon
as you have n minute to thiuk, (hot
desperate longing Comes buck again.
This goes on for several weeks, some
times months. Then one day the sun
shines down upon the tree near your
window nnd you look up nnd find that
while Ton were chasing rainbows,
the- end of the branches have become all
puffed and swollen with spring. The
gray, brown grass looks rather pert ns
if it felt the nunshlnu and smelled tbe
spring. The chirp of a precocious robin
lolls you that it is spring.
That's all it is just spring. The.
coming of Lent makes you think about
Easter. And Easter is spring. And
spring brings with it. n restlessness that
cunnot bc denied, cannot be remedied,
must simply be endured. Perhaps wc
feel the same new life that plants und
trees and flowers fed, only wc have
done all our growing und ull wc can

pBIJIIAPB It wuM help us , um
A this new beg nnlng of lf0 as if;
were the beginning of n year, uv!
tired now., as it we had been thro, Vsi
year of work, had .lone It well &U
ready to rest for just a little vvhlle
fore tackling another one. Perlmns if
we aved our New; Year's re"Z 0D
until now wc would be more ready am
better able to keep them. Wc TcoulH ll
iilong with the flowers. (
felt that unsettling desire to he "whri
wc nln't." wc. -could push the leavC
away from the moist black earth b"
nealh some protecting tree, and fee (f,f
Mitt, furry shoots of hepaticn puthin
up With ambition to see the world-'
and there would be a fellow feeling,
"Good luck, little flower!" we couW
say. cordially. "You and I arc in Z
same boat. Wo'rc both starting. YotiV
starting to come into the world. And
I'm starting again to well, to try to
make this world a better place foi
flowers to conic into," Then vve couH
grow in character as green things grow
in height mid strength.
I wonder it that would help tiv
through this wundcrh3t that strikes us
just before the spring? At least it would
give us somethlug real to dream about'
It would mnko Us stop and think, and
realize that wo don't want anything, ami
tbnt there's no reason for our restless
ness and it would send us off to consoV
ourselves with our quarter of a pound or
candv, or our thrilling novel, or our bc
loved movie with u clear mind and n
sane heart.
