OUR NURSE SAYS.

That if castor oil Is beaten up with the white of an egg it is entirely tasteless and even palatable. That if children are fed on a good simple diet, dressed in suitable clothes and given plenty of fresh air they never need drugs. That after washing a youngster’s hair it is best to dry it, when possible, out of doors in the warm, sunny air. This makes the hair glossy and gives it a fine shimmering sheen, v ■ That pure water is the best drink for children during the hot weather. It should always be boiled, and to take away the flat taste it may be poured from one jug to another when it is cold. That a father who will take his kiddies for country rambles and interest them in the wild flowers and bird life is giving them a valuable training in the development of their powers of observation.
