hardest thing for a young fellow to
understand is that when he charges
anything It ultimately has to be paid
for."
When I was a young chap on the
farm it was the custom to have a run
ning account at the grocery store in
the village and at the dry goods store.
When any one of the family wanted
some article of clothing, or mother
wanted groceries for the table, all we
had to do was to go Into t£e store and
order It. Father paid the bill at the
end of the year.
The trouble with the system was
that the bill was always larger than
he or any one of us had suspected
There was much discussion before the
bill was paid. There were many Item«
we had all forgotten about, and the
price always seemed larger when th-
bill was to be paid than when th-
original charge was made. We cam-
to see that the merchant who carried
the charge never did ao for nothing
We paid In the end for more than the
credit was worth. We learned that
the cheapest and the safest way is t •

ANNOUNCEMENT.
Nourishing Drink
^Jor Childre
IDABIES and children,, the same as
adults, grow weary -of being fed
the same food in the same way each
day. It Is true that most children take
naturally to milk, but that does not
mean that they must be fed It ad
nauseam. On the contrary, that Is the
very thing to be avoided.
Pediatricians advise consumption by
children of a quart of milk a day In
one form or another. This does not
mean skim milk, but whole milk, for
the skimmed product Is lacking both
in butter fat and the essential food
element known as vitamin A, which Is
found in butter fat. Many mothers
do 'not appreciate that removal of
cream from the top of a hottie of
milk results In skim milk.
In evaporated milk, a product rec
ommended by many leading doctors
for the use of infants and children
and which is simply pure cow's milk
sterilized In cans and with sixty per
rent of the water removed, there Is
no cream line. The milk in the top
of a can is the same ns it Is in the
bottom of the container.
This re
sults from a proems called homogeniz
ation, in which the fat globules in
the milk are broken up Into such
microscopic bits that they remain in
homogeneous suspension. Every drop
of homogenized milk has a buttery
taste because It contains butter fat.
For this reason/ In evaporated milk,
there Is none of the flat taste one
flnds In drinking from the bottom of a
bottle of market milk.
In order to avoid feeding the baby
or child plain milk three or four times
a day. many authorities recommend
the use of a mixture of fruit juice and
milk, a highly palatable and refresh
ing drink.
Following is a recipe worked out
by experts for an orange-milk drink:
Mix In a fruit Jar % of a cupful of
orange juice. U of a cupful of evap-
ora'ed milk, three teaspoonfuls of
wig: r, H tenspoonful of lemon juice
und a few grains of salt Shake well
heft re serving.
