FRUIT SALADS NOW
DAY OF DELICIOUS COMBINATION
Bill is HERE.
Strawberry Makes Excellent Combina.
ton with Nearly Every Other
Fruit on the List--Apple with
Celery and Mayonnaise.

The strawberry brings to the mind
| OF dainty cooks the delicious fruit
salads that they have loved long since
| and lost awhile in favor of vegetable
| aud meat connections
The English do not combine the
fruit and vegetable salads as the
French chefs do and the best Ameri-
can cooks are tending to keep the
| fruit salad as a dainty dish by itself,
which can almost take the place OF
ices or sweets on the spring and sum
| mer lunch table
Strawberries are delicious In fruit
| salad, and strange as 1t seems to meet
| this familiar fruit on the table with
| out the usual accompaniment OF
cream and sugar, It is very popular
| in the new form and is combined with
nearly every other fruit in the list
A grapefruit is especially good with
strawberries The core and fiber of
| fruit has been halved, the pulp being
| loosened from the sides in the usual
manner The berries are then placed
| In the conter and the whole is allowed
| TO remain on ice until very cold. A
| French dressing is added at the
table
Apples combine with nearly every
other fruit, but are best with celery
| and mayonnaise, this being one OF the
first fruit salads TO win favor sew
eral seasons ago, and known as Wal
dorf salad
A pretty way to serve II IL to scoop
ont the inside of red-cheeked apple
without injuring the outside form OF
the fruit Then replace the apple
chopped with celery, the core parts be
Ing entirely removed. When apple
blossoms are procurable they form a
dainty decoration for the open part OF
the apple.
Cucumbers may be opened carefully
and filed the same way, with a mix
ture of apple and chopped nuts, the
cucumber pulp being used and the
shell neatly reclosed so as to present
the appearance of being untouched
The cucumbers should be packed In
bed of fresh crosses and chopped
lee
Fruit salads can be effectively
served in glass punch cups, packed In
shaved fee in the high glasses some
times used for grapefruit. 4 gerafii
um or mint leaf is rubbed on the
glass by some cooks, and In fact,
their fancy has free play in connecting
these dainty dishes.

soda jerker grabbed IT instantly and
threw the contents away at the same
time handing me a check for ten

sweetly as | passed in my dime and
handed me two sample Walls OF pills

Alas, there are no scythes nova

In those days there We're scythes, and
