ECONOMY IN LIVING.

In these days of high prices 1t is
well to remind ourselves that meat is
an expensive luxury that can be cut
in two. We do not need so much meat
as we usually have served A pound
Of meat mixed with vegetables and
served as stew will be as satisfying
as a hfty-cent steak which is often
only half eaten and thrown out to the
dog or into the garbage can.
We eat too much of proteid foods.
1t has been often proven that we'll
masticated food eaten slowly will sat
isfy the appetite on a third less than
when 1t is hurriedly eaten. The over
amount taxes the bodily functions and
Is not only wasted but depletes the
system to remove 1t.
For brain workers easily digested
food should be chosen; rice, fish, eggs
and custards are all good.
We want dishes that are good, whole
some and appetizing, and they may be
prepared If thought and study is put
upon the subject, at a great saving OF
the pocket book and no difference in
the attractiveness of the table.
Goldfish a Ia Mode.-Take cup Of
shredded Goldfish, two cups of mashed
potatoes, pint Of milk and two eggs
well beaten, half cup of butter, pep
per and salt; mix we'll and bake in a
buttered baking dish twenty minutes.
Mountain Dew.-Take cup Of
cracker crumbs rolled fine, the yolks
of three eggs and half cup of sugar,
juice and rind of lemon, three cups
of milk, and bake twenty minutes.
Beat the whites and put over the top
for frosting.
A well-equipped kitchen with all
the convenienees for housekeeping Is
a great pleasure, but we must never
get so welded to 1t that in an emer-
gency we can not get good results
with poor, or no tools at all.
