Canada must send to Her Own, and
to the Allies Fighting Forces, more
wheat, more beef, more bacon, and
more of such other foods as are non-

Canada can do this without depriv-
ing her own population of a fair share
of any of these foods if You Women
will but help.
All we ask t.a f you is, that instead of
buying so much white flour (if you do
your own baking) you vary your baking
by using one-third oatmeal, corn, bar-
ley or rye flour. Or if y..0 buy your
bread, that you order a certain pro-
portion of brown bread each day.
Second, instead of using as much
beef and bacon as formerly, you vary
your family's diet, by substituting for
beef and bacon such equally nutritis.-us
foods as fish, peas, lentils, potatoes,
nuts, bananas, etc.
Third, and this is most important,
--positively prevent the waste ..of
single ounce of food in your house-
hold.

Statisticsshow that, everyday, in Canada, sufficient food is
thrown into garbage cans to feed the entire Canadian Overseas
Army.
Travellers have often remarked that many a European
family would live well upon the quantity and quality of food
wasted in some Canadian homes.
Such waste is shameful at any time, but in these
times it is criminal.

CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS
You simply say to the drug store
man, "give me a quarter of an ounce
of freezone." This will cost very little
but is sufficient to remove every hard
or soft corn from one's feet.
A few drops of this new ether com-
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn should relieve the sore-
ness instantly, and soon the entire corn,
root and a11, dries up and can be lifted
out with the angors.
This new way to rid one's feet of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that, while freezone is
sticky, It dries in a moment, and sim-
ply shrivels up the corn without in-
flaming or even irritating the surround-
ing tissue or skin.

cliOUPY BABIES.
TO AN INEXPERIENCED MOTI3LR nothing is more alarming than,
to be awakened in the middle of the night by the struggles for
breath and the choking cough of a croupy child. In the first.
place thorn is the fear that the disease may be diphtheria, In
the second there is the fear that the child may choke to death,
If the attack is the first the child has had the mother has a right to
suspect diphtheria, She may look in the child's throat and find no rnem-
brane, but then she is not certain of herself. The only way to know with
certainty is lo send for a physician and have the -throat examined and a
culture inade.
Rut mothers soon lose the alarm occasioned by croup, because the
child wbn has had group once will have it again. Some children never have
croup others, comnt'ncing when they are six months old and continuing
until they are ten year; old have croup with every bad cold,
An attack of croup starts in as does an ordinary cold.. Toward evening
the (oug') changes from 1h» ordinary to a typical croupy cough. The cronpl-
ness coniinlieo through the evening until bedtime, The child goes to sleep,
but wakcr up an hour or two Inter lighting for breath, The another gives
a dose of shun of ipa:ac, rubs the chest with goose grease. and gets through
the night. During the day the cough is better, but as night approaches the
croupines,s of the cough inc•reascs, and again sleep is disturbed by the onset
of an a1l8clr of t'laoking.
rherr must 1>o soma essential difference between children, which dif-
fereece makes the same infection in some cause ordinary colds and in
others croup It is children with spasmophilic diathesis who have croup.
Some Iienple call it nervousness, but that is a very comprehensive and at
the same time a very loosely used terur.
Is there any way to tell whether a child le likely to develop into a
croupy child? In the first place, there is the family history. Croup runs
in familteo. 1r the second place, there :is a history of convulsions or other
nervous disorders in babyhood.
What can be done to prevent croup? A course of 14 month or two of
calcium ehl0ride each autumn is advisable. Three to fifteen grains of cal-
cium.'chloride in water three times a day, according to the age of the child,.
should be given,
Spasmophilic children should be out of doors as much as Possible.
They should live in well -ventilated rooms. They do best when they aro fedi
plenty of starches, breads, cereals, potatoes, 4.nd sweats, and a limited
amount of lean neat, eggs; milk, and proteids generally. 'Their bowels
must. be kept regular.
NIGHT TERRORS.
A child, after sleeping somewhat fitfully for some hours, awakens
screaminl; front fright. The mother gathers hint in her arms and draws
from him a story of some ogre or wild animal which would have reached.
.him in a moment had lie not screamed and tried to escape.
The difference between night terror and sleep walking or somnambul-
ism is that in the latter the dream is fully acted out by most of the muscles
of ale., body; in night terror it is only acted out by the vocal organs, and by
them only in part, When a somnambulist dreams that a lion is after him
he gets ul and trios to run. The subject of night terror dreams about yell-
ing and running He puts the yell ;part of the dream into execution, but the
running muscles are not awakened out of thein' sleep,
If the fault does not lie with some violent bedtime impression it may'
be found in some vivid experience of the :earlier hours of the day. Kerley
,tells of a boy who had night terrors because he wore himself out during the
day trying to beep up with a strenuous older brother. --A girl had night
terrors because she wore herself out making glass eyes. The staring eyes
got on her nerves and her dreams about them would bring her ftp out of
sleep in a frenzy of fear.
Now, practically, what is to be done with a child subject to night terrors?

trolled, and how? 13y mental training. The child must not be told stories
about goblins and ghosts, He must be taught that darkness has no terrors.
Next the study must be made of the habits of the child. Kerley thinks
that indigestion due to bad eating habits is a frequent cause, He describes
three cases fn C111(1rer1 with heavily -coated tongues, foul breaths, and
intestinal indigestion. Such children are cured by changing the. diet,
Changing the eating habits, and keeping the bowels open.
