PEED FAT TO CHILDREN.
Many o' our Mtn and pale child-
ren, who have tendencies to colds
arid sore throats, and many. others
who 'are irritable would be greatly
benefited by the continued and judi-
cious use of fat in some digestible
form, such as fat bacon, the use of
cream on bread, or baked potatoes,
as well as a. bountiful supply of
good butter. .All of these fats will
be more digestilde if well subdivided;
hence we spread butter on our
brea(1, and Ilse bread crumbs or po-
tatoes with "fat 1)0000. Chocolate
or cocoa is also useful as a fat pro-
vider. ,
