The Child's Diet
At no time in life, perhaps, .is
the mineral, or ash, more needed
than during childhood while the
frame work is developing These
foods not only furnishr nutrifnehts
for the hones and teethr aid irrjWh
making the chemical changes of
growth, but they ; aid peristalsis
or bowel movement, thus keep
ing the system cleansed. ;
To make this a little more
practical, let us see what foods
are found in the childs simple
menu.
Diet From Two to Three
Years.
Milk, eggs, pulp office, baked
banana, baked pear baked appb,
sweet and white potato, thorough

Soft Egg.
Bread and Butter. :
Orange.
If this simple breakfast were
analyzed, we would find the whole
"Wheat mush rich in cell building
material (protein) and in starch,
the energygiving food as,. well: as
rich in iron, phosphorus "and
calcium. The whole milk has
a t:ood protein content and th
milk sugar and fat for the anergy
food, in addition to the calcium
ana citric acid for the necessary
chemical changes going on in the
body. Prunes are rich in natural
sngar, as well as in iron, calcium
and magnesium, i
In Breakfast No. II we find in
til? egg valuable protein content,
in addition to a rich and easily
assimilable quality of fat or ener
gy food, and iron and phosphorus
compounds. The drange is yalu-
able for the sugar, iron and
calcium. "X
