A Miracle Worked With a Pot of Beans Toil wouldn't think you could do much with a pot of beans, would you? Well, the other night I gave Jim a dish which Is now on our regular menu. It w-as beans with tomato sauce, to be sure, but with that I mixed bananas baked slowly In maple syrup until they were soft, and then I Just gave It a dash of Al' Sauce. Boston wouldn't have recognized those beans. Jim says he will recognize them If he meets them again, and he ho-ies it will be often. AI Sauce is not a Worcestershire, you know, it Is Just a miracle-working flavor that transforms left-overs and turns beans Into bliss.
