FRUIT FOR CHILDREN
There is a growing opinion that milk puddings are too starchy to be of bodybuilding value; that their pappiuess is bad for the teeth. Soft puddings can be given occasionally, and a milk pudding made with a pint of milk and a good lump of butter has much to recommend it. But the child’s second course should often consist of some harder food which makes the teetli do their work. The stomach should not always, after the first course, lie tilled with soft and moist milk pudding. This is not good for the digestion. The second course should sometimes be one of fresh fruit —an apple or an orange. Nuts, to be well masticated, can be given. Even suet pudding is coming in for criticism these days. Good as suet is for a child, it is not recommended more than once a week
