Alvftyt R eWtl SOLD BY DRUGGISTS EVERYWrOfi Food Expert at Summer School Tells of Proper Feeding for Little Folks. In the third of her food-economy lec tures at the University of Oregon this morning, Miss Winifred Kerr took up the feeding of children, more than 18 months one year old. The fuel require ment for a child from one nod one-half to two years old, Miss Kerr sssortod, is 900 to 1200 calorics. Six feedings a day are provided for, from 0 o'clock in the morning to 10 o'clock nt night, and warm milk, fruit juices, stale bread, egg yolk, sifted spinach or sifted green peas make up tho greater part of the menu.. Four meals a doy are suggested for the child 8 to 4 years old and the menu is something the same as for the younger child a bit heavier, of course. The child from 5 to 7 has reached the potato and boiled Tice stage, and his four meals resemble moro nearly those of adults. No meat, however, appears in his menu. No mention is made of fruit juices, whose place Is taken by stowed fruits und pteln puddings. Tho lecture Frldiiy afternoon dealt with tho topic of meat conservation and meat substitutes. Those present wore advised to use more of the internal or gans of tho animal, which are higher in food value per oouod than tho rest of the carcass, wing to tho absence of hones and fat. Ways of extending tho meat flavor through combination with other foods were explained, with special attention given to ragouts, stews,, pies aud chowd ers. Cheese as a meat substitute was highly recommended. The caution was given that cheeso must bo properly pre pared to give tho maximum of digestibil ity; it should be cut Into small pieces and served with vegetables, cereals aud wbito sauces. At 30 cents a pound, the speaker Baid, cheese ii cheaper food than the average cut of meat at 25 cents. The legumes beans, pens, lentils and pca nuts were discussed us meat substitutes and tho general caution given that beans to bo digestible should be well cooked. Since the connective tissue in beans is close, it is bard to break up. Miss Kerr's next three lectures will be given in Portland, in connection with the Prtlnnd center of the summer school, next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Sho will return here next Thursday, giv ing tho next lecture of the course at 3 o'clock on that afternoon, on tho subject of "Wheat Conservation and Substi tutes."

THE MISMATED BRIDAL COUPLE IN "VERY GOOD EDDIE" How would you like to be a mere atom of a man scarcely five feet in your regals and married to a young woman just twelve inches taller t ouch is the happy fate of little Eddie Kettle. the principal figure in "Very Good Eddie," the musical comedy which took New York by storm. In the same piece there is a tiny bit of a maid, even smaller than Eddie, who has just married a stalwart six-footer. The two couples board a boat for their honeymoon trips, but by misnap the tall husband and statuesque wife are left ashore, while the tinv counle re mains aboard. Naturally all the pas sengers correctly assume that they have just been married, but make the mistake of believing they are married to each other. Circumstances make it necessary for Eddie and Elsie to keep up the deception, and this state of affairs gives rise to more laughter than Broadway has heard in many a year.
