They are nervous and therefore unstable in their deportment." It has also been found by other in vestigators that "children who drank coffee averaged from one and one-half to more than four pounds less in weight, and from one-half inch tj more than one Inch less in height than the children who abstained from coffee. They were also found to have an aver age of three pounds less in hand strength than the children who never drank coffee." NOTE.
