WASHINGTON GIRL
MARR|ES JAPANESE
STEWARD IN NAVY
Officer on Secretary of the
Nays Yacht Is Bride
groom.

Mr.. and Mrs. Sadaske Fujita started
out this morning to spend their honey
moon seeing the sights of the National
Capital.
Mrs. Fujita was Miss Zelda NJ. Strik-
er, Washington girl, and Fujita has
been here most of the time for the last
five years, but there are just lots OF
things that neither of them have seen.
80 they decided to spend their honey
moon as tourists in their own city.
The wedding, which took place yester-
day afternoon at the home of the Rev.
B. F. Crawford, in Four-and-a-half
street southwest, marked the culmina-
ton Of a pretty romance between a son
Of the land of the Mikado and an Amer
lean girl. Twenty years ago Fujita left
his native land and came to the United
States to seek his fortune. He obtained
employment in the navy, and now he Is
steward of the Secretary of the Navy's
yacht Dolphin.
Fond of Her As Child.
Five years ago. when Fujita engaged
a room at Sl7 L street southeast, he met
thirteen-year-old Zelda Striker, who
lived Just around the corner. An at
tachment sprang up between the girl
and the Japanese, and Fujita confided
to some of his friends that when the
girl grew up he was going to ask her to
didn't wait for her to grow very much.
He told her two or three years ago that
he wanted her to marry him, but she
told him he would have to wait until
she was eighteen.
A few weeks ago she celebrated her
eighteenth birthday. Fujita did not let
her forget her promise, and yesterday
they were married very quietly at the
minister's home.
Have Planned for Future.
Last evening there was a celebration
IN the little home in L street. Mr. and
Mrs. Fujita were surrounded by friends
and neighbors who came to wish them
well, and the smile on both their faces
told just how happy they were.
They have plans for the future, too
Fujita has saved his money since he
has been working for Uncle Sam and in
about five years he expects to retire
from the navy. Then they are going to
japan, and Fujita will show his Ameri-
can wife the wonders Of the Land of
Flowers, of which she has heard SO
much.

THE VALUE OF VEGETABLES.

Lettuce is a vegetable good for the
nerves, cooling to the blood and in
duces sleep. AS it contains large
proportion of water, it is vegetable
most desirable for the hot months.
Asparagus, spinach and dandelion
have a marked effect on the kidneys.
Celery is another vegetable good for
the nerves, as 1t is soothing and sleep
producing.
Tomatoes are good for the liver,
cabbage is rich in phosphates, which
are needed in the blood.
Cucumbers are said to improve the
complexion, and carrots have a reputa-
ton for giving high color to the skin
as well as improving the eyes and
hair.
Onions are the best nerve vegeta-
BILE, a remedy for coughs and colds,
purify the blood and remedy for in
somnia.
Turnips, radishes and beets are veg
etables valuable as foods.
A large part of the food value Of
vegetables consist in the sauces with
which they are served. Beets with oil
OF are very 4c%ICSu4uSs
Celery cooked until tender and
served in white sauce is an appetiz-
ing method of serving that vegetable.
A nice combination for a salad Is
cooked asparagus tips arranged on
head lettuce and slices of radish
around the asparagus. Serve with a
French dressing and season with
onion juice and minced parsley. This
may be served as a dinner salad or
with the addition of few slices of
hard-cooked egg it will make a salad
substantial enough for luncheon.
Sweet green peppers and cabbage,
with a few nuts and simple boiled
dressing, makes a most wholesome
salad With mayonnaise and served
in heart lettuce it is really elegant
Chopped beets served with mayor
naise colored a rose color and served
on a nest of shredded cabbage or eel
cry is another pretty salad.

The action of othine is really rem ark a ole,

freckles disappear entirely by morning, and
usually all that is needed, even for the worst
