is evident nature intended us to eat
other things? Why, it's absurd. If
cool things are not intended to be
eaten, why are they so alluring during
the summer? That is what ask you
as a sensible man.
You can't expect a heavy meal at
this season, and oh, I'm so pleased. dear,
that you have no intention of asking
for it. You'll feel better when you start
out for the Office in the morning, or
when you come home at night, if you
have just a dainty little meal, served
up in appetizing style, and surround
ed by the neatest and cutest table ware.
You know the meal itself isn't every

surroundings count for great deal

Vigorously scientific summer basis. -.
Il read somewhere that melons are
the very best Of summer foods. The
piece also said that the cucumber is a
melon. So I bought bottle of the de-
licious tiny sweet pickles. You have
no idea how good they are. Will you
try one, Charlie, dearest? No? Please,
just one. This little bit of fellow.
There, l knew you would like it if you
could bring yourself to try.
What have I for dinner? I thought
you had dinner down town to-day, and
would want nothing but some trifling
dainty when you got home. You had
only a glass of iced tea and slice OF
watermelon? Now that is really aw-
full of you going and trying to live on
such things. Iced tea is good enough
once in awhile, but l do not see how
you can spend money for such thing
when you can get whole big glass OF

Surely you are not going to fry ham

If you want to stuff yourself with fuel

Suit yourself. l have tried to convince
