$-" Physicians tell us that a diet of
V"? v meat and starchy vegetables is re-
it .sponsible for many of the present-
T day ills and they urge a liberal diet
of the uncooked succulent greens,
such as lettuce, watercress, celery,
cabbage, cucumbers, corn salad,
endive, romaine, green peppers,
radishes and the various herbs, such
as parsley, chives, onions, leeks,
taragon, sorrel and chervil.
These leafy plants contain a val
uable mineral element which is nec-
t essary for our daily growth and
physical well-being. Now that these
foods are abundant, they should be
f served in the form of an appetizer
and a salad. Thrifty housewives are
apt to feel these succulent greens
expensive and think that they do
riot contain sufficient food value to
warrant their expense in the daily
dietary.
Since dietitians have made these
facts plain many of the old diseases
due to poor and impoverished blood
stream have disappeared. The old
days of sulphur and molasses are no
more. We of the twentieth century
prefer to take our tonic in more
palatable forms.
Appetizers
v The appetizer is a small morsel of
food served at the beginning of the
meal to cause a free flow of digestive
juice and thus help the digestion.
During the growing season these
canapes may be scallions, served icy
cold; radishes, cold and crisp and cut
into thin pieces, but still left on the
stem; well-cleaned, crisp, crinkly
watercress: coleslaw, with celery;
coleslaw, with green and red pep
pers, or with scallions, or with bacon
or ham nicely browned; or just a
lice of full-ripe tomato, spread with
mayonnaise and dusted with grated

This pepper is mildly sweet-flavored
spice that does not irritate the deli
cate lining of the throat or stomach.
Now, fully as important as the green
appetizers are the dainty salads, let
tuce, corn salad, endive, romaine,
tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, cab
bage and the cooked vegetables, such
as lima beans, peas, string beans,
beets, etc.
The success of all salads depends
entirely on the dressings used with
them. So, with this in mind, we will

One teaspoon of salt,
One teaspoon of paprika,
One-lwtf ttaspoon of mustard,
Three-quarttrs cup of salad oil,
Juice of one lemon,
Two tablespoons of vinegar,
Juice of one-half orange,
Two tablespoons of raw onion,
grated,
Three tablespoon of finely minced
parsley.
Shake until creamy and then use.
This mixture will keep until used if
kept in the refrigerator.
Hungarian Paprika Dressing
Three-quarters cup of salad oil,
One-quarter cup of vinegar,
One tablespoon of paprika,
One teaspoon of salt,
One-quarter teaspoon of mustard,
One teaspoon sugar.
Place in a fruit jar and shake until
creamy, then use.
Italian Dressing
One-half cup of salad oil,
Four tablespoons of vinegar,
One teaspoon of salt,
Three tablespoons of grated
cheese.
Place in a fruit jar and then shake
the blend.
Sour Cream Cucumber Dressing
Pare the cucumbers and then soak
in ice-cold salt water for one-half
hour. Wipe dry and then grate.
Place in a bowl and add
Two tablespoons of giatcd onion.
Three tablespoons of finely minced
parsley,
Tiuo tablespoons of lemon juice,
One teaspoon of salt,
One teaspoon of paprika,
One-half teaspoon of mustard,
One teaspoon of sugar,
One cup of sour cream, beaten
stiff.
Blend well and then use on fish or
meat, salads, lettuce, tomato and let
tuce or potato salad.
Plain French Dressing
"Place in a fruit jar or a wide
mouthed bottle
One teaspoon of salt,
One teaspoon of sugar,
Oite-half' teaspoon of paprika,
One-half cup of oil,
Juice of one lemon or three table
spoons of vinegar.
Shake until creamy.
All of these dressings will sepa
rate if left standing any length of
time, but if mixed in a fruit jar they
may simply be shaken until creamy
again and then used.
Mayonnaise Dressing
Place the yolk of one egg in a
soup plate and add
One teaspoon of lemon juice.
One-quarter teaspoon of paprika,
One-quarter teaspoon of mustard.
Beat with a fork until thick and
creamy before adding the oil. Then
beat in the oil, adding a little lemon
juice or vinegar from time to time.
This dressing may be made in a bowl
with a dover egg beater. Add the
salt last of all. ,
Russian Dressing
One beet,
One carrot,
One onion.
Pare the raw vegetables and then
grate them into a bowl, and add
One and one-half teaspoons of
salt,
One and one-half teaspoons of
paprika,
Three-quarters teaspoon of mus
tard, Two teaspoons of sugar,
and, therefore, cannot select them with
care.
A servant girl never has one moment
to herself. Just because she is poor
she must work and do things women are
not supposed to do. Why are we asked
to move such things as pianos and ice
boxes every time we dust? Do women
forget we are just like they, only
"lower classes"?
There Is one place where rich and
poor are classed alike and also treated
the same, and if we cannot have free-
uora ana pleasure on in is earth we
may perhaps rest In peace in the world
beyond, where we will be looked upon
as human beings. CAKOLYN.
OF the fourteen points of superiority about
our fur repairing and remodeling the
first is smarter style, the second is our expert
knowledge, the third is our skilled workman

Place two ounces of Roquefort
cheese in a bowl, mash fine and add
One-quarter teaspoon of paprika,

My dear Mrs. Wilson Will you
kindly let me know the best way
to put up butter for the winter?
Some say brine, others say biine
is not good. Some say salt. As
everything is so awfully high in
price, I would like to try putting
up some. Thanking you in ad
vance, LANCASTER.
To pack butter for winter use scald
and cool the crock, and then line with
cheesecloth. Place a, layer of salt
one-inch deep in the crock and then
pack in the butter in three-inch lay
ers. Sprinkle with one-half-inch layer
of salt and then repeat this process
until the crock is filled to within two
inches of the top. Gather up cheese
cloth around the butter and cover
with a two-inch layer of salt. Cover
closely, tying with paper after plac
ing on the lid. Store in a cold spring
house or cellar.

The New "Summer Furs"

UQUMMER furs" is such an old cx
J presslon and has been used fo
much the last few seasons, since women
have been wearing peltry in the sum
mer time to say nothlni; of the ridicule
that has been attached to the fashion
that women hardly have the nerve to
ndmit they either own or would wear
Rummer furs. After all, many of the
fur pieces are only morsels, just a mere
touch of fur at times, but ns a rule
that little touch is choice and ex
pensive as well.
The fur tinncts I told you about
many months ngo. but with the coming
of the suit into fnvor this spring, the
tippet became the rage to finish the
neck' of the suit. They are also worn
with the dresses of serge or lighter
materials just u little something
about the. neck to take away the bare
look. Sable and marten are considered
the smartest, and heie and there one
sees mink and ermine. The head, claws
nnd brush play an important part and
usually decorate thp neck at the left
side or at the back toward the left. One
of the tippets is shown at the right of
the sketch.
Small capes are also very good, and
it is rumored that this style is to be
very good for the coming fall. One of
these little shoulder capes is shown at
the left of the drawing. This is made
of mole and is draped at the front into
a jet buckle.

are shown for summer. I like best the
capes and wraps of chiffon with band

but they are so attractive and look so
well ocr the summer frocks. As a rule
two or more shades of chiffon are used
to make these capes. Kor instance, I

gray chiffon formed the lining and the
outside, while between" the two thick

JUST WHAT IS A
AND HAS SHE ANY BRAINS? v
Discussing the Young Woman
More Heart on Her
TTTHAT is a coquette? Some one has
it defined her as "a heartless flirt,"
a thing with more beauty than sense,
more accomplishment than learning,
more charms of person than mental
graces, more admirers than friends,
more fools than wise men for attend
ants." (
It was a puzzled young man who
described her In even plainer words
than these. I don't know how It Is,
but she seems to make every man she
meets think she is just on the edge of
falling in love with him. The minute
she is introduced to a man in a gath
ering of people you would think every
one else in tho room' had disappeared
into thin air and there waa only just
one person standing there, and he the
handsomest, most attractive and most
interesting chap in the world.
The coquette is 'the young woman
who collects hearts, as it were. There
are never quite enough of them on her
sleeve. At least there is nlways room
for one more. She .may even be en
gaged to be married, but if there is an
attractive man in the room wild horses
and ten other pretty girls in the room
who are not engaged cannot keep her
from wandering to where she can catch
his eye. The coquette is the girl who
finds it necessary to take oft her en

out of town and she is invited to a
specially interesting party.
"Have a better time,," she explains
to her nearest girl friend. "And what's
the harm?"

her must be one long standing line

them Is eggplant. Jim never used to eat
eggplant, but when I cook It for htm
now in this new way well, I wish you'd
see him eat it! '
I cut up my eggplant Into square and
boll until It's tender. Then I put It into,
a baking dish and season It with pepper
and salt. I cover the eggplant with a
layer of torhato naucs and cllopped
hard-boiled egg. I bake all thl for
about twenty minutes, but, of cours. It
Isn't complete without the delicious
Havor that Jim thinks the most Impor-t
tant part cf any dish Al Sauce. It
makes a wonderful entree, and some
times I serve It as the chief dish of the
meal. It would be good, anyway, but
the Al Sauce makes It simply luscious.
