Growing Children Need
Much Sleep.
Children, at the age of four years
need twelve hours sleep a day. At
the age of five, eleven hours seems to
be sufficient. From the age of eight
to eleven, when children are doing
active school work, they need from
ten to eleven hours sleep; and at
twelve to fourteen years, nine to ten
hours sleep. Children grow mainly
while sleeping and resting, and if they
are to develop strong husky bodies
they must have plenty of rest and

Winter Flowers.
If you want to brighten your win-

pot up some of your brightest annuals.
You can pot petunias, verbenas,

in winter, both larger and finer in
color than they produce outeicie.
