Laura Allan I was waiting to be served at a res- taurant table when an attractive young woman and a three-year-old boy took the opposite chairs. Whelk' was giv- ing my order the mother fussed with the child to the extent of arousing his impatience, then she glanced over the menu card, smiled at her son and said; "What are you going to have, Harold?" To me the scene at once acquired Interest. A three-year-old was about Ito choose his own luncheon! Well, he wasted no time about it. 1';mpbee sizing his demand with a bang ot his his knife -handle upon the table, he de- clared in no uncertain terms, "I want doughnuts with syrup on them and fried eggs!" The young woman had, perhaps, Ings the proceedings, rioted mysurprise at1 r P for her attitude changed. In what was almost a pleading tone she sug- adopt. . gested, "Hot soup would be very nice with an oatmeal cookie, and a small, cup of properly cooked cocoa. A spoonful of strawberry ice-cream was a festive finish. He was quiet during dinner and polite to the maid --one scarcely knew he was present. Before getting ready for dinner he had had a merry romp in the hall with his father, and after dinner his mother told him his regular good -night story. Then he went to bed happily. • It was all so restful, so altogether satisfactory.—Issued by the National Kindergarten Association, 8 West 40th Street, New York City. These articles are appearing weekly in our columns. Short -Temper One Way of Reducing That Surplus "Never lose your temper" Is a maxim that has been impressed 011 countless generations of young peo- ple. But if you are too fat, and to reduce, it's a good prtnctpik to this chilly day. See, I am going to have some, and so is this lady." The boy looked from his mother's face across to mite, entirely uncon- vinced, Ile refused the soup placed before him and again demanded dough- nuts. I tried to help by commenting upon the excellence of the soup, so hot and delicious, and led on to another subject. The mother took up the cue delightfully, and we ignored the boy who continued to make a nuisance of himself, I thought that his hunger would presently force him to capitu- late, but he was overfed, so that bit of stratagem failed. The mother calmly ordered a vege- table salad for both, which the boy scorned. I kept up a merry chatter as I saw that she was weakening under the strain of his noisy demands. But when I indicated a dessert on the menu, she smiled and ordered it. Harold was so captivated with the rosy baked apple and its whirl of snowy whipped cream topped by a red cherry, that he seized his spoon and began an onslaught. He even accept- ed a crisp cookie with his tiny glass of orange juice. We elders exchanged triumphant smiles and our visiting cards, It was evident that the mother's manner was a new experience to the child. He watched her with puzzled eyes, and. submitted to his outdoor garments without a word. She whis- pered la goodby, "Your surprised look Wes a revelation and your sympathy 'and tact are inspllling. I mean to per` severe." That evening it chanced that I dined "at a !tome where the three-year-old boy is the only child. • Ile had his own chair and low table near his mother's place, and was served in courses like the grownups, ;but with special food. Isis mills-toma- i10 soup was followed by a poached egg on toast, which he managed dex. iterously, then a dish of stewed prunes For it has now been. proved by science that the emotions of auger and fear burn up fat. So every time you lose your temper you are helping to combat that middle-aged spread. And if you !aspire sufficient terror In the object of your wrath, you are helping him to retain a slim and shapely figure as well, So losing your temper may be good for, you—and Just as good for other people. The short-tempered wife who flares up on the slightest provocation, and whose husband trembles at her words, is, all unconsciously, the guard- ian of the family health. Even a wet holiday, if it frays tem- pers aufficieutly, may thus be a healthy holiday. And the small boy whose tricks make grown-ups stutter and shake with rage may be a public bene- factor. But bo careful! Temper does sometimes got people into awk- ward serapes, and the plea that you're reducing, or beeping others to reduce, may not alwaysbe accepted. The Tonic He. Needed Jim Hatherton was right in the middle of his final examinations at Varsity when as he said himself something snapped and he was just a bundle of nerves. He went to a doctor and told his story. The medical man, not so long out of university himself asked a good many clues-' flops about Jim's examination and his home folks. Finally he said "You sit right down here at my ,telephone and call up your mother and have a real good chat. I know you write every week and all that, but just have a good chat and don't hurry for it will not cost much anyway.". Jim did more than that; he called his home every evening from his roams while the exams were on. The sound of his mother's voice seemed to be just the tonic he needed.

Even our primary conceptions of moral duty depend for their vigor ,and clearness upon our practical attitude toward duty. Nothing so clears them as doing what we know to be right and eschewing what we know to be wrong. That brings us to a solidity and simplicity of conviction which we Call reach neither by observing men's experience nor by lcgical reasonings. It keeps us in touch with reality, and dissipates the vapors which other- wise becloud the mind. Other processes may bring us to conclusions which we cannot deny, but which have no power, over our lives; this gives us conclusions which act upon us as motives :and helps to farther right action. For, as George Eliot says, the finest re• ward ot doing right is the power to go forward to right action which is more difficult.

He has pea own estates; to manage, both here and in Canada; and even though he leaves the details to others, he cannot help learning the broad principles that underlie all busi- ness transactions; and that he has grasped these, and has himself what is known as "a good head for busi- ness," is proved by the readiness of business men to listen to him, and their high opinion of his Judgment. -Water Hemlock Declared Deadly by Scientists Children should' beware of the dead- ly poisonous hemlock or water hem- lock weed, which is sometimes mis- taken by them for wild parsnip dur- ing the Spring and early Summer, warns both Dr. L. W. Durrell, botauist, and Dr. George H. Glover, Veterinarian, .at the Colorado Agri- cultural College Experiment Station, in a recent bulletin. "Keep live stock away from ditch banks or swampy places where this dangerous plant grows, and caution children against tasting any parsnip - like plants," Dr..Durrell warns. "Poison hemlock is a tall perennial weed growing three to six feet tall, with a hollow, smooth stem, and characteristic thick bunch of spindle - shaped roots.

Here, for ex- ample, is the story of Lpndon's appe- tite, the story of what the World'e largest city eats in a. yule, told in fig- ures by the Port of London Authority. London's weekly bread consumption approaches 25,000,000 quartern loaves. If they were all of the sandwich -loaf variety the daily ratio i, placed end to end, would stretch for 600 miles. In addition to home supplies, London im- ported 400,326 tons of wheat and 218,- 000 tons of flour in 1930. Cheese im- ports to suit all, palates, from cheddar to gorgonzola, totalled 120,000 tons. London's breakfast bili for last year included 43,480,000 pounds of bacon and ham, and 73,000 tons of eggs. Be- sides the butter supplied by English f.,rms, 358,400,000 pounds of butter had to be imported. For lunches and dinners, London purchased 600,000 tins • of chilled and frozen meat from Australia, New Zealand and South America,and dried fruit to the extent of 111,000 tons. The people of London received from overseas last year 621r 000 tons of green fruit and 111,000 tond of canned fruit.
