Besides shred of mousseline

gives an extra flavor to the COM
bination. When the onion fig
ures in a sandwich, scrape or
mince it. In the salad, slices are
better.
A cabbage salad, if delicately
made, is very good indeed, and
is also very cheap. Chop the
cabbage fine, almost to a mince,
in fact, and mix it with a few
blanched walnut meats. Mix
with a good mayonnaise and
serve on the tenderest of cabbage
leaves. Sprinkle thickly with
paprica.
Grapefruit salad is one of the
most delicious in the catalogue,
and it is not necessarily an ex-
travagant salad. The fruit can
be purchased in the large mar
kets or on downtown fruit stands
at astonishingly low prices. Cut
the fruit in slices, and with a
sharp pointed knife cut close to
the membrane in each section,
and take out the pulp in plump
pieces. One fruit of medium
size will make enough salad for
two persons. Make a French
dressing, substituting lemon
juice for vinegar, and paprica
for pepper. Or make a delicate
mayonnaise dressing, which is
perhaps more suitable for the
fruit. Pour the dressing over
the fruit and mix very carefully
with a silver fork. Serve on let
tuce leaves which have been
dressed with a French dressing.
A very fine lettuce will do. New
