on with salt, pepper and a half tea
spoonful of sugar and very little
onion juice. Keep just at the SIM
mering point for 10 minutes. When
the vegetables are done drain thor
oughly, mix and add to the sauce.
Simmer gently for Is minutes; when
in the serving dish sprinkle with
chopped parsley. This ragout may
be varied by the use Of other vege-
tables; hard boiled eggs cut in quar-
ters may also be added.
Another good way is-boil all the
vegetables as in the above. When
done, place in a deep dish, use half
can Of tomato soup as a sauce,
cover with buttered bread crumbs
and bake.

TIE VALUE OF VEGETABLES IN
SUMMER.

My Dear Mrs. Lee: While the
price of fresh meat has placed it al
most beyond the reach Of some of
us, there are so many fresh vege-
tables in the market, one can get
splendid results and not have to pay
out so much for fresh meat.
Vegetables are really more health
full, at least all the doctors tell us
so, and / am sending you a favorite
recipe of mine which l hope many
of our Woman's Page readers will
enjoy.
1t is called "Ragout Of Vegeta-
bles"-Pare or scrape and cut into
dice equal quantities of young car
rots, white turnips and new pota-
toes; boil separately in sailed water;
also boil some green peas. While
they are cooking make a good brown
sauce, allowing one pint for each
quart of the assorted vegetables.
Brown two tablespoonfuls of butter,
add two tablespoonfuls of flour and
brown again. Stir in gradually one
pint of the water in which the peas
were cooked, three-quarters water
and one-quarter thin strained toma-
to. When smoothly thickened seas

FRUIT AT MEALS.

AS a rule, a fruit dessert in the
evening and after a mixed meal
ought only to be lightly INDUCED in,
for the average stomach will but
rarely tolerate heavy influx of such
cold and usually watery element as
fruit. This is not the case if the
fruit is eaten before or between the
meal courses. A ripe melon eaten
with salt or butter, before or imme-
diately after the soup, can be freely
INDUCED in. Experience teaches US
that steWed or raw fruit may be
largely taken between the courses.
In many parts of the continent this
custom prevails; the Germans eat
s-ewed fruit with many meats, and
in warmer climes such fruits as
grapes, plums, figs, melons and
sweet lemons are habitually eaten
with all kinds of dishes, or as palate
refreshers between the courses.

Comment:

One of the best ways for changes
at smallest cost is of course to use
paint or yarnish; this can usually be
done by some one about the place.
White mouldings on which to hang
the pictures brighten the rooms won
derfully.
Very pretty bright and attractive
patterns of wall paper can be bought
at remarkably low cost at this sea-
son and nothing freshens a house
more than to repaper; Of course this
costs more, but it should last several
years if properly taken care of.
Never let the sun shine directly on
light colored paper in the summer as
the cheaper quality naturally fades
easily when exposed to direct rays
of hot summer sun.
Old floors painted and waxed or
finished with some of the many floor
preparations are wonderfully i'm
proved.
Curtains in all designs and color
effects can be had in scrim and mad
ras for little amount, also cretome
where one has a color scheme for
chair and bed covers.
There are few things SO charming
as the planning for q home, and one
can study different schemes and
plans that are in almost all of the
summer magazines-but remember
this, don't be too easily discouraged,
for any way you remodel or arrange
for your furnishings it will cost you
quite a bit, so decide what you need
and want most then study prices and
buy as wisely as you can. Will be
glad to hear from those who have
arranged their homes and will tell
us some of their plans and discover
les that will aid young housekeep-
ers. A. w. L.

SUGGESTIONS FOR CHANGES IN
AN OLD HOUSE.

- EAR MRS. Lee: Please adj
III wise me some about making
ILL some changes in an old house
at little cost. I do not need
any carpenter work done, but the
house is very much abused, is dark
as it gets little sunlight. I want to
have cheerful and coy home, but
can spend very little money in
making alterations.
Yours sincerely,

The sheriff was gone from the room

answer:
