In addition, it tends to inspire and develope many men of the church.

It would be difficult fot any parent to find a physician of modern education who would contend that coffee and tea are not harmful, especially to growing children. The fact remains, however, that manyparents give these beverages to their little folks and allow their use in older children at a time when physical and mental development is the most rapid. The drug, caffeine, in coffee and tea retards growth and interferes school progress.

Disturbances of eyesight, headaches, nervousness, irritability, indigestion and other ills appear in many, seemingly without cause, and the damage often, occurs at the most impressionable period of life. No parent should permit the use of coffee and tea in the growing young; for the men and women of tomorrow will be what the parent of today makes the children by wise upbringing.
