EFFICIENT
HOUSEKEEPING
Planning Meals
BY HENRIETTA d. GRAUHI
domestic Science Lecsuxsr)

There arc some excellent foods that should never meet IN the same
table, while there are other foods that cen to grow and be- perfected
to adorn n another.
This la why many \ meal OF we'll selected food. nicely cooked.
|seems unsatisfactory. This relationship OF foods should be studied to
produce evenly balanced meals, tor upon 1t depends the physiology of
digestion.
Some dinners se all hesviness;; they begin with a thick crea
soup followed by a cast With ntarchy vegetables n Allow n relief
even In the dessert
again a meal Is meagre from start to tMsh, commencing With q
THU bouiDon and ending with q water Ice.
Properly planned menus are arranged with the relation TO the quality
of food to be served IN mind.
The first item is usually q relish like g. oyster, grape fruit, o cock
tail. This Ia to stimulate the appetite. The soup follows, and whether
sc Is thick or thin. rich o weak. Is determined by the foods to follow,
tuFe, choose a thin consomme,b but II o have only a steak, or outlets,
Or fish. make your soup rich with eggs or cream, IT with barley o other
additions. ~
The dessert should be planned similarly; . light dinner being bal
snced by q dessert enriched with fruit, eggs and cream and served with
a sauce. Such a dish is almost . meal in itself But beware OFFS serving
an elaborate dessert on the heels of a baked dinner.
The meats commonly named heavy" are pork, mutton, beef, Light
meats are veal. lamb. fowl. fab and certain parts of animals a kidney
sweetbreads. tongue, heart
A right proportion OF fat in the diet is Al necessary to nutrition IS
any other food element. A liberal use of butter furnishes 8 portion,
but not enough. Olive oil is valuable but. there sis a limit to the amount
one can consume Nut buffers are excellent and should be eaten plehtl-
fully
Starches, oils. fats, gums. sugar and flesh are heat producers and
needed. but they must be balanced with the salts, acids and phospbates
found IN fruits and vegetables. .
If with every starchy vegetable you serve two succulent ones, and
with every cut Of rich meat you send along q sharp auce Or fruit ds-
set. you will be using that good judgment OF which We hear Sc much
and se so little.
Potatoes should be served with all meat, fish and fowl Sweet
potatoes are most appreciated with pork and roast meats The succulent
vegetables may be asparagus, spinach, eaulihower, radishes. cucumbers
and lettuce and all salad plants.

Advent Of Easter.

For spring, which. from the early

generally aaee.aasaa by the leading de,
signers. Suits and separate coats will
be the first to which attention will be
directed. and they will fully reward
the eager searcher after new things.
The length of the spring-guit jacket

sign. Getaway models will be longer.
and the simple tailored suit will be

The skirts will show no material
increase In width; but II will be there
for the convenience OF walkers. Slight
drapings and pleated panels will be
used, with fullpess at the top OF the
skirt. This latter feature gives an
easy line at the back, preventing the
unsightly spanning which was SO evil
dent In the light skirts last year.
Elton and bolero effects will be very
strong. and promise new becoming
ness to slender The short,
dumpy one who doesn't tell her weight
any moro should shun these short
coats.
The noticeable feature Is the len
iency OF the coming styles. All types
OF figures should be given q modlstic
