For q yellow Luncheon.
Sternan

During the golden rod season a very
attractive luncheon may be served.
Let the rooms and porches be deco
rated with the feathery yellow bios
som. having all the table pieces low
and not too large.
For the menu serve a delicate soup
like cream of celery, and on top Of
each place a spoonful of whipped
cream. and for the yellow color just
a suggestion Of egg yolk from a hard.
cooked egg put through a ricer or
sieve. II one wishes to omit the
soup, a fruit course may be substi.
tuted. or both may be served. For
the fruit course, the rich yellow Of
musk melons served in balls made
with a French potato cutter and
dressed with a bit of lemon juice and
powdered sugar, is very good. For
the main dish. chicken croQuettes
with white sauce garnished with
grated yellow cheese. might prove
most appetizing.
With the ice cream, which will be
plain vanilla, serve preserved yellow
pumpkin. It tastes much better than
It sounds and is a beautiful yellow to
carry out the color scheme Cut the
pumpkin in dainty cubes and pre-
serve with orange and lemon. 1t Is
the custom with many who entertain
when carrying out a color scheme, tC
tie the rolls with ribbon Of the coloI
used In the decoration. Ribbor
seems very much out of place on food;
1t may be used in the table decora
ton to advantage or to tie up small
boxes Of candy as favors or in count
less pleasing ways, but as an orna
ment or garnish for food, 1t seems In
appropriate.

pIaestIbIe and Nutritious Foods.

There are those, who even yet, after
much has beeh said and written about
foods, their digestibillty and value in
repairing waste and building tissue
speak of digestible and nutritious as
synonymous terms.
Foods may be very easily digested
that contain little nutriment, for ex
ample, the oyster is easily digested
but is not as nutritious as we once
supposed 1t to be. Gelatine is easily
digested but is of little value as a
food. The tissue-building foods are
milk, cheese, eggs, fish, lean meat
poultry, dried beans, peas, nuts and
grains.
Those foods that supply muscular
energy and If eaten in excess are
stored in the body in the form of fat
are underground vegetables, corn
rice, bacon, olive oil, cream, butter
grapes, dates, figs, honey and sugar
A digestible food is one that is as
simulated, nutritious food is one that
repairs waste builds tissue and gives
heat and energy.

chlldllke Ignorance.

Laura Jean Libbey, discussing in
Brooklyn her successful appearance
on the stage, said:
Il talk in my monologue about love,
marriage and the other interests Of
the heart. On these subjects women,
especially young women, are strangely
ignorant.
They really make me think, you
know, of the little girl who was asked
by her teacher:
"'What can you tell US about Solo
mon?
Solomon, replied the little girl
was very fond Of animals
"'And how, my dear, said the teach
er, do you make that out?'
Because answered the little girl
the Bible says he had 500 porcu
pines.'"
