In health there is no need of such exacg dosage; yet even then some at- tempt at regulation is useful.

It has sometimes been suggestâ€" ed that iron tools and weapons ma have‘been made at an earlier peri from meteorites, and recently a. con- siderable amount of evidence‘in be- half of this hypothesis has been pre- sented by C. F. Zimmer. There is for all of us a happy med- ium between too little and too much; the way to find it is to use common sense. Exercise should never be car- ried beyond pleasant fatigueâ€"a point that varies, of course, according to the condition of the person. For most. of us, brisk walking is the best and most available form of exercise. A good plan is to begin with a mile a day and to increase the distance gradually, keeping short of real fati- gueâ€"not lazy inertiaâ€"until you cover four or five miles every day. If you are under seventy and in average health, that is not too much, when taken in two or three installments. If it causes undue fatigue, you are pro~ bably not so well as you think you are, and you should go to your physician for a thorough examination of your heart, lungs, kidneys and nervous sys- tem. ‘ Aztecs Made Iroxi Knives from Gifts From the Skies. miles a day and spend an hour at gymnasticsâ€"perhaps much to his in- jury.

It is not thrift, but the worst sort of extravagance to rqb the growing chil- dren of the foods they need to promote the healthful growth of bone and musâ€" cle. Adults may get along for quite a while on diminished rations, but ichildren need certain foods to make ‘the cells which build up the organs and it is nothing short of criminal to deprive them of these things, Milk, which just now is plentiful in Ontario, though there are differences of opinion about its cheapness, is one of the best things for the growing boy and girl. And we are not asked to save on that. On the other hand, we are urged to buy it ’and save on meat. Few chil- dren dislike milk and théy should be given it freelyâ€"to drink, in custards and puddings, milk gravy and vege~ table cream soups. In the soups, es- pecially, it is an ideal dinner or lunch dish. The milk furnishes the protein necessary for growth, and the fat, if the cream is not taken out, while the vegetables give the mineral salts nec- essary. Any vegetable may be cook; ed until soft, put through a ricer, and the water in which it is cooked, with‘ the pulp, added to scalded milk, the? whole thickened with a little Corn-i starch, and served piping hot. The war is developing many ideas hitherto unknown to most Canadians, and the greatest of these is thrift. We hear it on every hand, from the kitchen and linen closet, through every branch of home-makingâ€"and in the streets it pursues us in the form of placards beseeching us to save for the different funds which the war has made necessary. ,Food we must save, and we'i‘e do- ing it gladly and Willingly. Linen we can’t buy anyway, and wool is al- most out of sight. And we are find- ing that we can get along beautifully with the Japanese lunch cloths for our tables, and that while shoddy isn‘t so satisfactory as pure wool f0: gar- ments, we can wear it and be warm, if it is going to help win the war.

We will build a bridge. I’ll carry big stones and drop them into the brook, and every one of you shall bring little stones." So straightway Little Bear began building a bridge of stones. It was hard work, but he tugged at rocks and rolled stones 8nd lifted stones and splashed and struggled and struggled and splashed until at last there was a. fair bridge of stones across the sing- ing brook. The baby Wildcats did not help much because they were too busy quarreling and crying. “Now step over,” advised Little Bear, “and be careful that you do not slip.” ‘ “Don’t quarrel,” said Little Bear. “I want to know how you hapfien to be on the wrong side of the brook?" “He did not!" interrupted Billy Wildcat. “He said, ‘Ma will never know if we go walking just a little way,’ didn’t he, Fluffy?” “Yes, he did,” answered Fluffy. “And we walked and we walked until we were lostâ€" and Yowler was the worst one of us. Why, why. Yowler!" “Mother went awéy and didn’t come back,” Yowler explaihed, “and I said we ought to stay home and be good, butâ€"” “He did not!" interrupted Billy By the time LitthBear came along, the baby Wildcats were crying big tears into the brook and wailing at the top of their voices. Little Bear could not help laughing; but he felt sorry fer his little neighbors, and determined to help them out of their trouble. He thought and thought and thought and thought! At last he asked the baby Wildcats how they happened to be so near home and yet on the wrong side of the brook. . “Jump on a log and spreacfi your tails wide and sail across!” said the reg squirrel. But the wildcat babies did not dare to jump on a log. They were afraid that it would turn over and dump them into the water. “Float over, float ove'r!" advised the ducks. But the baby Wildcats would not even try to float. “Slide right in and paddle over!” suggested Mrs. Otter. But the baby Wildcats would not slide in and pad- dle over; they were afraid of the waâ€" ter; they did not like to get wet. “Wade in, wade in!” advised Father Deer. The baby Wildcats shook their front paws and would not wade into the water; they did not like to get wet. “Swim across!” advised the bea- vers. But the baby Wildcats were afraid of the water and would not try to swim. How Little Bear Helped The Wildcat Babies.

Some folks are always irritable when they are worried. Anyway, she took Little Bear home; and great was Lit- tle Bear's surprise when, on reaching his own gate, Mrs. Wildcat suddenly stopped and said, “Metâ€"now!

At the same moment Father Bear and Mother Bear came running down the path from the house to see what was the matter; and at, that very mi. nute up jumped the circus man from beside the gate, where he had been hiding, and ran away as fast as he could goâ€"so 'fast that he looked like a straight line flying down the road! “Well,” said Mrs. Wildcat, “if he knows what is good, he will be glad to have me take him home, or the circus man may get him.” “Little Bear is good!" piped in the shrill voice of little sister Flufl'y. “He made a stone bridge/ for us and brought us home!” Little Bear loved her for owning up like that. circus man wandering round here, and it is a wonder he didn’t find you!
