IN MODERATE CIRCUMSTANCES . BUT HAS THEM ALL. I do not like this spirit of antagon- ism so often exhibited when the ques- tion of household conveniences comes up, so much stress being laid on the man’s abundant supply of tools, etc. I find very often the wife is slow to put ifl improvements when she her- self has the money. A hearty co- operation between husband and wife is the better way. I have never yet been obliged to ask for any kitchen convenience. Our house is equipped with: ' "a -..._.. . being that we have overlooked to some extent the physical discomforts on the mental well-being. Many a naughty child needs the doctor or the dentist and he gets scolded instead. For that matter, we grownâ€"ups are not any too easy to live with when we are not feeling well, so why expect more of the children? A simple physical ex- amination may show that crossness is not just due to old-fashioned original aln. a good physical examination rather than punishment. He may have mereâ€" 1y developed ugliness of temper, it is true, but quite often there is a rea- son even for that which, when made clear, may surprise the parents. There has been so much said in the last few years about the effect of the mental activities on the physical well- Older children are much the same way. When Jimmie has a cross day he probably ate too much rich pud~ ding the night before, or maybe his eyes have caused a slight headache. Very young children are frequently cross because the ears ache and they cannot tell the mothers, but it will be noticed that they keep rubbing the head near the ear. Little backs some- times ache as well as big ones, and the child who is habitually cross needs No normal child is naturally cross, in spite of those who insist that some babies just naturally have three- months colic and are cross. He may have it all right, but it is an un- natural condition and the whole household suffers. But the baby is cross for a physical reason, pure and simple, perhaps due to mistakes on our part and not because he was born with a bad temper. It has been discovered that bad chil- dren are frequently suffering some physical handicap which makes them abnormal. You know yourself that if the children are excessively tired or hungry, they are perfect demons com- pared to what they are when com- fortable. We may follow this up and find that many times the naughty tricks of children can be traced to de- fects in their care or wellâ€"being which can be easily remedied. -â€"â€"AND THE WORST IS YET TO COME About the House BAD CHILDREN.

In the spring the appetite is often poorâ€"- Dr. Williame’ Pink Pills develop the appetite, tone the stomach and aid weak digestion. It is in the spring that poisons in the blood find an outlet in disfiguring pimples, eruptions and boilsâ€"Dr. Williams' Pink Pills clear the ekin because they go to the root of the trouble in the blood.

A delicious chocolate for a large crowd is made as follows: Mix to- gether two cupfuls of sugar, one- quarter teaspoonful of salt, eight level jtablespoonfuls of cornstarch and six- teen ounces of cocoa or chocolate. Stir to a paste with four pint cans‘ of evaporated milk and pour over it four Quarts of Minna/wager. Stir until it begins to thicken, then cover and alâ€" low to simmer'for ten minutes. ‘ To make one quart of boiled mayon- naise, which is the best kind to serve for a mixed gathering, as many per- sons dislike an oil dressing, but almost everybody likes mayonnaise, heat one‘ and one-quarter pints of weakened‘ vinegar in granite pan, add one heap-i ing tablespoonful of butter and bring1 the mixture to the boiling point. In! the meantime, beat together the yolks of six eggs, a half teaspoonful of dry mustard, one tablespoonful of sugar, a half teaspoonful of salt, a saltspoon- ful of pepper and a dash of red pep- per. Over this slowly pour the hot vinegar, stirring until thick. ‘itiOI If layer cakes are substituted for the loaf cakes, three medium-sized ones should be supplied. For two kinds of sandwiches, about ten loaves of bread are necessary, the regular corrugated sandwich loaf being pre- ferable, and two and a half pounds of butter. Eight pounds of sliced boiled ham will make fifty sandwiches, or one quart of chopped meat will go as far. Have the bread a day old and, to facilitate matters, slightly melt the butter and apply it with a pastry brush before cutting each slice. Put the coffee in clean salt bags to save straining, but be careful to fill them only half full, to allow room for swellâ€" ing, and tie or sew the edges together. To make an orange punch for fifty guests, use the juice of fifteen lemons, four and a half dozen oranges, seven pounds of sugar, twenty-five pounds of cracked ice and one quart of cherries. In entertaining large companies one is frequently at a loss to know just how much to provide in the mat- ter of refreshments, an uncertainty productive of much waste, as a rule, for the tendency is to have an over- supply rather than run short at the last moment. The high cost of every- thing is forcing us to be economical even in our hospitality. In catering for fifty persons the following will be a reasonable amount to provide: One and a half pounds of coffee. three pounds of loaf sugar, three pints of cream, three quart molds of jelly, five loaf cakes, two quarts of olives or pickles, three pounds of salted nuts, two and a half gallons of ice cream or eight quart bricks. Chicken salad for the same number will require twelve pounds of chicken, fifteen heads of celery and one quart of mayonnaise. Nine pints of oysters will make sufficient scalloped oysters. Ices not being served in large portions two gallons will be quite enough.

Causes.â€"thtle is definitely known as to the cause of leg weakness in chicks. Lack of green food, mineral matter, fresh air, exercise and sun- shine, deficiency in the vitamins con- tent in the ratlon, overteedlng of high- ly nutritious feeds, too much heat, damp quarters, and overcrowding are causes most often assigned for leg weakness.

By S. W. Knipe. Leg weakness is an ailment preval- ent with closely confined chicks. Prob- ably it is more correctly termed a "symptom" rather than a disease since it apparently may occur under differ- ent methods of feeding and manage- ment and in different forms, such as rheumatism, neuritis, and rickets.
