Cheese as a Valuable Food.

Fortunately. bs a race we are begin-
ming to appreciate cheese and It's value
as a food, instead of as tidbit to eat
with the coffee end OF dinner.
A cheese souffle or cheese pudding
has full meat value and makes deli
cious supper or luncheon dish which will
be appreciated by the men Of the fam
lily. Cheese, being highly conceDtrat.
ed food, Is best eaten In small quaint
ties and is more dgestible when cooked
aud diluted bv using with starchy foods
Hence we have macarOni and cheese,
rice and cheese, bread and cheese pud-
ding and the tasty potatoes au gratin.
