For the increasing number OF those
who are eschewing meat for one rea-
son or another, and who are studying
food values, in order to choose intel
ligently when arranging menus. the
following suggestions may prove help
full:
1t Is never wise to make radical
change all at once in ones diet; but
bring 1t about by degrees. There are
many foods OF high value in proteid
that are not nearly as expensive as
meat Among the foods that may take
the place of meat in the diet are nuts
cheese, macaroni. rice, beans. peas,
oatmeal, entire wheat and graham. as
well as the whole kernel Of wheat
cooked until tender. These foods save
the meat bills.
Here are a few menus that will be
suggestive: Breakfast-Fruit. cereal.
corn cakes. maple sirup and coffee
Dinner-Baked beans. brown bread.
apple and celery salad, coffee suffe
and coffee. When a green salad is
used custard for dessert will supply
the food value needed.

crumbs add a cup OF water and stir
over the fire until boiling hot. Take
from the heat and add three hard
cooked eggs, chopped fine, a cup Of
pecan meats or hickory nut meats, n

a half of salt, half tablespoonful Of
grated onion and the same amount Of
powdered sage. Mix well and stir In
two well llbeaten eggs. mold into the
form of fowl. reserving portion for
the wings and legs. stick in a piece Of
macaroni for the bone and press them
against the body of the fowl. Form
the wings and press them against the
body. Brush with butter and sprinkle
with bread crumbs and bake In a
quick oven. basting two or three times
with melted butter. Serve with apple
or gooseberry sauce.
Another dinner menu for the meat
less eater is peanut soup, potatoes.
egg salad. string beans. stewed figs
and cup cakes. Another-Cream Of to-
mato soup, pea timbales, potatoes or
rice. fruit salad and graham pudding.

ent forms Is an excellent substitute
for meat. Butter baking dish. put In
