If parents realized the factthat tea and coffee contain a drug -caffeine - which is especially harmful to chil- dren, they would doubtless hesitate before giving them tea or coffee to drink. - "When I was a child in my mother's arms and first began to nibble at things at the table, Mother used to ' give me sips of coffee. And so I contracted the coffee habib early. "I continued to use coffee until I was 27, and when I got into office work 'I began to have nervous spells. Especially after breakfast I was so nervous I could scarcely attend to my correspondence." (Tea produces about the same ill effect's as coffee, because they 'both contain the drug, caffeine.) "At night, after having had coffee • for supper, I could hardly sleep, and on rising in the morning would feel weak and nervous. "A friend .persuaded me to try Postum." "1 calf now get good sleep, am free :from nervousness and headaches. 1 recommend Postum.'." Name given by Canadian Postum Co., Windsor, Ont. Postum collies' 'in two forms.

Social workerswho have the boys' welfare at heart are inclined to lament that so many should be entering what may not perhaps prove a permanent occupation.
