Poor Mastication in Children.
The train of ills that follows the
insufficient chewing of food is great
and may start early in life. Many
children,?in fact, most chileren,?
unless watched and corrected, will
"bolt" theirfood. When they are
healthy they are also hungry, and it
is natural that they should regard
the mouth as a simple and rapid
channel to the stomach. To teach
them how to eat is often exceedingly
tiresome, but it must be done,
even at the cost of nagging.
Insufficient mastication is especially
harmful to the young, because
the full growth of all the passages
of the nose and throat actually depends
on proper exercise of the
muscles of this region in tne eariy
years. The use of the jaws in mastication
is one of the best ways for a
child to get this exercise; and if he
misses it, by reason of improper
habits of eating, the consequences
may be very disagreeable.
Children who are not taught to
use their teeth are likely to have inadequate
nasal passages and a sluggish,
local circulation, which in time
lead to constant attacks of influenza
and presently to the growth of adenoids.
The child whose nasal and
throat passages are well developed
and constantly fed with a stream of
pure blood does not continually come
>' - - i?i >> ?i
down Wltn COiOS in ine neau, aim
is not likely to suffer from adenoid
growths.
You sometimes see children whose
parents are bringing them up in the
most approved way hygienically.
They sleep in large, well-ventilated
nurseries; they spend hours each day
in the open air, and all the resources
of science are at their service; yet
they are not healthy. They are
anaemic, nervous, pale little mouthbreathers.
It is well in such cases
to examine the habits of eating.
Sometimes a nhvsician finds that the
diet is too exclusively of the pap
variety?that the child does not get
a fair chance to use his teeth. In
other cases, although the food is of
the proper kind, the child is not
made to masticate sufficiently. The
results are equally unfortunate.
The nut-eating game is a good
a/nv tn teach children to masticate
properly. The child who can chew
an a Brazil nut for the longest time
is the prize winner. Everyone in
the game discovers how very good
the food tastes when it is eaten
slowly, yid begins to form the habit
5f long chewing.
Thfe Irish potato crop in the coastal
counties'including Charleston,Colleton
and Beaufort, brought $6,000,300
this year,a net profit of $4,500,)00.
As much as $649 per acre was
realized.

Letter From "Poor Conrad."
(This letter is published by request
as taken from the Johnsonville
Progress.)
Dear Sir;?I wish to write a few
lines to the readers of your good paper.
I have been in this section for
the past two weeks, and am much
pleased with this part of old Williamsburg
county and its people. I
made the acquaintance of many and
received a kindly welcome. Mr A C
Hanna, who, after a close ^scrutiny,
has located me and convinced himself
that I am the "Poor Conrad" of
the County Record fame. He seemed
quite pleased to find me out and /
requested me to write a short lettef
to the Johnsonville Progress.
I am not so well today, as I am
suffering with a cold, but as I have

people, especially by Mr W W Johnson
and family, I wish to express my
appreciation. It was by Mr Johnson's
invitation, when I met him in Kingstree,
that I visited this part of the /
country. I came here in a small motor
boat from Kingstree.down Black
river to the Great Pee Dee and
Lynch's Creek, which some will no
doubt think a long trip for one who
is past four score years.
I was quite touched by a little incident
which occurred while I was
\
sitting in Mr Richardson's store. A
little boy saw the Confederate Cross
of Honor pinned on my collar and

aSKcU lllc 11 i waa a V/Uuicuciotc ovr
dier. I replied: "My little man,I am
not one row, but I was at one time."
It was with pride that I told him I
was one of General Robert E Lee's
ragged few who shouldered the musket
in 1861 and went to old Virginia
shoulder to shoulder with the boys of
old Williamsburg. Among them
were old lion heart George Graham,
eagle heart Lonnie Flagler, old rough
and ready Pete Epps. Indeed those
poor old boys had a hard time who
made a wall of their breasts and kept
Grant's hosts back from the gates of
Richmond for many long months,
through heat and cold, dust and rain
and winter blasts for our Fatherland,
theSouth. God bless our Southland!
Poor old boys;they are tottering
on the road for a few more days.
Readers of this good paper, when
you visit Kingstree, look up at the
statue at the cross street, see the
man up there with the gun, see him
on his post watching, yes, often peering
through the darkness of wintry
night, through blinding sleet and
Qnntx7
The little boy I mentioned touched
a tender spot in the old man's
heart and he has said more than he
had intended to say, but, Mr Editor, ,
you know that was in the long ago,
and when once my mind is reminded
of the long ago, I feel like saying ?
something. "Yes," said the little m
boy, "my grandfather was a Con- 1
federate soldier." "Yes," said I, *
"little man, all the old men we meet
in the South were Confederate soldiers."
Yours truly,
Conrad Constine. .
