regulated so as to' conform to the sea
son's change In order to make a perfect
dlot, wo may readily understand tho
chief reasons why so many, who make
their so-called attempts to adopt a
"vegetarian" diet, fail so utterly. In
making tho trials one must take Into
consideration that not only is it neces
sary to understand tho digestion and
pioper assimilation ot vegetable foods,
but they must know how to adjust diet
to their needs, making allowance for
their Individual idiosyncrasies; and
having ascertained to a reasonable cer
tainty what kind and amount of food
materials are required, they must not
overtax, weaken or impair the diges
tive powers by eating too great a quan
tity of food, or that which Is so imper
fectly cooked as to be unfit for proper
assimilation.
We have quite sufficient evidence to
convince us that a large per cent, of
ordinary diseases is caused by exces
sive meat eating, by which excess we
not only waste a large amount of tissue-forming
foods, but overburden tho
kidneys. The imperfect elimination of
this excess, or of the dead tissues of
the body by the kidneys is so marked
In results, that it is strange that we do
not take greater care to prevent the
possibility of disease arising from this
source. Results just as dangerous and
unpleasant may follow a. vegetable as a
meat diet when one indulges In an ex
cess of any one of tho important food
elements found in this class of foods.
This is very noticeable when the
starches and sugars arc taken In too
great proportion to other parts. The
imperfect oxidation of starches and
sugar; tho bolting down of badly
cooked starchy vegetables, such as po
tatoes, 1.4 sure to disturo any digestive
functions and absolutely certain to
bring disagreeable results to an acid
stomach. Meals in tho average house
hold usually contain an excess, if not
an extravagant amount of starch; this
with tho sugar and fats which are in
variably added throws tho diet too far
out of balance, and even when the di
gestion of every one is quite normal,
discomfort is suro to follow. When
meats are entirely avoided it is most
Imperative that one study the nature
of vegetable foods more closely, for by
tho elimination of these tissue-forming
foods wo are in danger of Increasing
the percentage of starch in the diet
without a corresponding increase in tho
vegetable food properties which will
replace like properties in the tabooed
meats. Most people who attempt the
vegetarian diet without the clear understanding-
of the nature of foods
which are ranked in this class, go too
far In substituting starch for meat, In
tend of trying the meat counterpart,
wheat, and Us clo3o allies, the nuts.
Many people would most undoubted
ly enjoy bettor heath If they would
adhere strictly to a correct vegetable
diet and there is not the slightest dan
ger ot their not being well and proper
Seasonable
The human body is built out of the food eaten. A weak
ness in the constitution means that one or more elements
of the body have not been nourished sufficiently or have
been over-nourished at the expense of other elements.

ly nourished on such a regime when
they can obtain twice tho amount of
tlssuo-formlng food from tho wheat
grnln that can bo Becured from meat,
especially when experience has, or
should have taught them that they
cannot perfectly digest ment. "If the
stomach only Bccretes a mall amount
of acid and pepsin, and the pancreatlo
digestion la good, vegotablo foods will
ngroo much better than meatfl."
Whllo wo have shown that starchy
foods in large quantities, or out of pro
portion to other principles aro harmful
in a great many cases In most cases,
wo may say nd particularly hurtful
to those who have strongly acid stom
achs and weak pancreatlo digestion,
this fact does not In any wise crimi
nate tho vegetable gluten supplied by
wheat, peas and beans, which, If prop
erly treated, agree with Invalids better
than meat, unless perhaps, thero are
somo very peculiar Individual condi
tions, which are possible, but not common,
Bean Fluff.
Cover one pint of dried white beans
with two of warm water; add a tea
spoonful of salt; and simmer gently for
an hour. When they are soft, drain
them carefully and press through a
colander, allowing the hulls to remain
In tho colander. While hot add a
tablespoonful of butter, a seasoning of
salt and pepper to suit the taste. Beat
until light, and add two tablespoonfuls
of mlllc or cream, and the well-beaten
whites of two eggs; turn into a baking
dish and bake in a moderately quick
oven thirty minutes. Serve from tho
dish In which tho fluff is baked.
Curry of Beans.
Chop one medium-sized onion and fry
a golden brown In a tablespoonful of
butter; add one teaspoonful of curry
powder and two teaspoonfuls of milk
and mix smooth; add one quart of
baked beans, and the juice of half a
lemon and just a zest of tho grated
yellow peel. When steaming hot, dish
in a border of boiled rice.
Bean Panaches.
Take two cups of siring beans, fresh
or canned; cut into inch lengths; two
cups of white beans, two tablespoonfuls
of butter, juice of one lemon, one table
spoonful of minced parsley, salt to
taste. Boll tho two kinds of beans
tender in separate vessels; drain off the
water, put the beans together in a
saucepan; add to them the butter, lem
on, salt and parsley, stir until thor
oughly heated and serve.
Potatoes a la Custard.
Peel and boil six largo white pota
toes; drain very dry and make smooth
and creamy, season with salt, pepper
and butter and a little cream; press
through a colander so that it will fall
evenly and light as snowflakes into
the dish; beat one egg well; and add
to half a cup of milk and pour over
the top; bake fifteen minutes in a
moderately hot oven. It should look
like a golden brown custard when tak
en from the oven.
Spiced Sweet Potatoes.
Boil the potatoes the day befoie us
ing; peel while hot and when cold slice
them rather thick. In the bottom of a
baking dish put bits of butter; sprlnklo
sugar over the butter; place on this a
layer of potatoes. Alternate with but
ter, sugar and potatoes until the dish
is full. Cover tho top with butter,
sugar and a teaspoonful of ground cin
namon, cloves and nutmeg mtxed; pour
over it a cup of water. Put it In the
oven and after it begins to bake, mois
ten it once or twice with a little butter
and hot water to dissolve the sugar so
as to prevent its drying on the top of
the potatoes. To make this dish very
nice you must use a cup of sugar and
a cup of butter to two quarts of pota
toes. Bako in a moderate oven.
Panned Onions, Creole Style.
Split oyster crackers in half. Butter
a deep dish and line it with a layer of
the crackers. Sprinkle chopped Span
ish or Bermuda onions over the crack
ers; then pepper and salt; then spread
with a very thin layer of tomatoes, aa
the flavor of the onion must predomi
nate In this dish. Continue to alter
nate the materials until the pan is full,
having tomatoes on top. Add sufficient
quantity of milk to come nearly to the
top of tho pan and cover with buttered
bread crumbs. Bako one hour. This Is
a delicious dish to servo with turkey or
chicken.
Hold-over Tomatoes and Bice.
If you have a little left-over tomato
left from dinner this Is a dainty way of
utilizing It. Steam two-thirds of a cup
of rice In two cups of water in a dou
ble boiler, adding half a teaspoonful of
salt at the tlmo that you pour tho wa-

tor on the rice; cook until soft, which
will require from half to three-quarters
of an hour, lteinove the cover of tho
boiler and stir tho rice carefully with
a silver fork to allow the steam to es
cape and dry off the rice. Heat tho

Malabar Bice.
Cook one tablespoonful of finely
chopped onion in two tablespoonfuls of
hot butter In a stewpan, let it cook
slowly without browning until you
have a pronounced odor of the onion;

washed and dried; stir it often until
slightly browned; mix one quart of
strong vegetable soup stock and one
pint of strained tomato. Season highly
with salt and, cayenna Add it to the

der and the broth is all absorbed. Just
before serving add more salt if needed,
and pour over it two tabipsnnnnfnia nf
melted butter. Add two large carda
mon seed, split and turn into a hot
dish. Omit the cardamon seed if tho
flavor 1.4 not liked.
Hose-tinted Celery.
Take the very tender inside stalks of
blanched celery; cut into inch length
pieces and soak in tho juice of very
red cranberries until the delicate shade
of pink Is obtained; shred one end of
each piece of the celery If you wish to
have it look like llowers. Mix this with
crisp white celery prepared in the same
manner, or arrange separately in little
nests of tender green lettuce leaves.
Serve with a plain French dressing.

These instruments are the results of years of careful
study and exhaustive experiment. Musicians are loud in
praise of their purity of tone and freedom from injury from
climatic changes. They are ideals for home or hall use.
We solicit your inspection and examination of them.
And now a word about our system of selling for credit.
The word credit has a horror for some people, but as ap
plied here it means convenience, comfort, luxury it does
not mean the placing of the yoke of debt about, your neck.
It is simply placing at your disposal the enjoyment of a
beautiful Piano or Organ, giving you the lowest possible
price and permitting you to pay for it in small weekly or
monthly sums that are easily within your reach. It would'
be as reasonable to consider your advance rent as an
obnoxious debt as to misconstrue a purchase made under
our equitable credit system.
