"If it don't look (like regular victuals nor teste like regular victuals it's somethin' girls like when they go on a plenie," | The Editor hears That Kingston people are getting very dilatory in the matter 'of ar- riving at the opera house and other | ce places of amusement. Perhaps the habit originated in the sunimer when most of us sald when the clock struck eight, "Oh! That is only seven." But, however, it is, the fact remains that nightly performances are delayed or Interrupted by the late comers. It is not fair to those who have purchased a ticket to see the performance in peace to have to get up In the most exciting part to let someone into the seat next to them. Hostesses too, say that their guests are very careless about the hour of their arrival, especially at tea. Too late an afternoon tea brings it too close t0 the dinner hour. Ip England where the custom of afternoon tea now prevalént every whiers, originated, tea Is served at four o'clock leaving time for a walk or a game between that light re- freshment and the dinner hour.

"I don't see how other mothers get their children to help them with v sald a Mother Housekeeper talend of mine, "My lit. tie girl makes such « fuss when I ask her to do my kind of work about the house. Bhe always has plenty of energy io run and play-- but when I suggest that she set the dinner table or dry the dishes, she is 'too tired.' ™ "What do you give her to eat?" I asked. She mentioned some esenta~ tive dishes cornstarch desserts, white breads, fried foods, meat, fish, ogg diwhes. "I think I know what's the mat- ter with your child," I told her. "She is not, getting enough alkali- forming food. The dishes you men- tioned are all acid forming." 1 then explained that eome foods form acids in the stomach and oth- ers form alkalis which neutralize the acids. Every meal should have at least an equal brlemce of acid- forming and alkalli-forming dishes. Mercia. Here the Royal saint, HiMa, | was Abbess, ,and here perhaps Caedmon kept his oxen and sang '"The first great Daglish song." Re- cent excavation has discovered frag- ments of the Saxon wattle-and- daub buildings, and things used by 'monks and puns who lived in ; and there is hope of finding remains also' of the Saxon church, on or near the site of which, two nturies after its destruction by the Dames, Reintrid, ome of the Con gueror's men, founded anew an ab- bey -and became its first Prior. The foundations of the tive apses of Reinfrid's church may still be detected within the half-shell which alone is now left of'the great church built by the Benedictines in the 13th century to be worthy of - their great and powerful monastery. The spot was full of religious, political and soclal history for nine centuries; and the havoc wrought by subsequent neglect and abuse eannot rob it of a spiritual suthority worthy of the natured authority of ite situation. The Office of Work has' Whitby Abbey in hand, and has not only re- shored the elight damage done in 1914, hut his got on well with its us- ual task of discovery and - tiod. Of the comventual buildings aside the carping and often unjust | told criticism of those who did not see e¥e to eye with them and get behind the government in the matter of con- trolling the sale of spirituous liquors. Indeed, it ig better to have more. of the alkali-forming ones, than the acid-forming. But our natural tend ency is to eat more of the latter with the mesult that we do mot feel' well, lack energy, and eee the world through dark glasses. 1 then gave my friend these lists: The Acid-Forming Foods Are: The foods mentioned above, and also white cereals made from refin- ed wheat (that is, "wheat without she husk); all refined sugars; all white-flour products such as pas. try, biscuits and crackers: dishes 'made largely with the whites of eggs; tapioca; cheese; polished ripe; and denatured cornmeal, (Note: i do not say that these foods are mot all right to serve if accompanied by an abundance of the Alkall-forming foods). ; The Alkali-Forming Foods Are: Salads, fresh fruits, greens, baked potatoes amd potatoes steamed in their skins, whole milf, natural brown rice, cornmeal ground from the whole grain, uppearied barley, rye and buckwheat flours made from the whole grain, wholewheat (both in cereal form and In bread), she yolks of eggs, and all fresh veg- etables, » The child or the adult not getting enough alkali-forming foods will nat- urally feel listless and mot inclined to work---altough they will 'often brace up for pleasure (who will not!) .
