Fresh Vegetables and Fruits.

wilt or bend; old fruit either spols
or gets spongy. Wilted vegetables
will often revive II kept in Il cool, dark
place and sprinkled with water. The
closer fruits are packed the quicker they
will decay. Speckled peas and limp
beans and asparagus are not good. Egg

, the whittier the lettuce and cabbage
leaves, the more delicate. Lemons and
oranges should be cleaned with a brush
and cold water before going to table.

are animal matter. Berries, currants
and grapes need several ice-cold baths
before dinner. If the stems of seed
fruits are wilted the fruit will not be
perfect. Peaches. apples and bananas
