All cooking experts are, of course,
interested in the new method of max
ing bread discovered by Mrs. Sharp
less of Philadelphia.
After careful investigation l must
say that there is only one method of
making this bread: You must use a
Sharpless bread machine to get good
results. The bread cannot be mixed
or kneaded the old fashioned way. The
machine is entirely different from the
bread mixers now on the market.
There is a Sharpless Bread company
in Philadelphia, which is exhibiting
the machine
A word about salads. They are just
as necessary this time of year as any
other. A salad is always wholesome
and there is no excuse for a city resi-
dent not having a salad with every
dinner, for our city markets supply
green stuff the year round.
Most any leftover vegetables can be
mixed with a little finely cut celery,
served on lettuce leaves with French
dressing.
A good way to have the French
dressing is TO make and put it in the
cruet and just before using shake well
so the oil and vinegar will be well
mixed.
| In Europe salads have been in a
/ prominent pace on the menus for
ages; and have been valued as they de-
serve. If could not afford both salad
! and dessert, would do without the
/ dessert, and have a Wholesome salad,
The following menus are excellent

King Alfonso.

King Alfonso Of Spain recently
sprung several surprises on his IN
suspecting people. One was the an
nouncement that he contemplates
making a visit 70 America IN the near
future. He said he believed such q
visit would cement the friendly refa-
tons between Spain and the Latin
American countries.
The Spanish king announced at the
same time that he was in favor of old
age pensions. honest elections, and
better government generally.
