The Suitable Food.

It is often remarked that as soon as
the sturdy peasant girls of Germany.
Norway, Sweden and Russia. come over
to America they lose their looks"
When they land they may appear gro
tesque with their strange clothes. but
their glowing cheeks and bright eyes
make them objects of envy; and the con-
trast between them and the sisters, cous-
ms or friends who meet them at the
steamer or Ellis Island, very up-to-date
as to dress, but with pale faces and lack
luster eyes, is very strong. What is the
reason?
The peasant of the European countries
lives on simple and coarse foods. The
Russian peasant eats black bread, n soup
made of vegetables, stepped instead OF
boiled, so that every atom of flavor and
nutriment is retained, called black
BROTH" and II they are little higher in
the scale they may be able to afford
cheese occasionally.
The Scandinavians eat bread, milk and
cheese, with occasionally some of their
some favored with fruit and made with
corn starch, which serves for the main
course of the meal as well as dessert.
T. The German peasant eats dried beans
and peas, green's of all kinds. pancakes
made of whole-wheat meal ana the IN
evitable rye bread.
The Irish have their national diet OF
potatoes with meal cakes and milk.
Now, lin these lists We see there is a
marked absence of meat and sweets, but
the moment these healthy, hardy girls or
boys land on these shores they develop
a marvellous theory that in order to be a
true American one must eat meat three
times a day, and the old nourishing home
diet is looked upon with scorn as part
of the general privation of the past.
The change from the coarse grains with
their high mineral content and plain,
wholesome vegetables to a diet OF meat
with the unwholesome cakes. pies and
puffs of our bakeries has its effect very
soon.
once last summer 1 saw crowd OF
Young girls. not one of whom couio
speak English, come rushing out from
an East Side factory into cheap little
bakery, where soda water of most
questionable quality was dispensed. The
luncheon of every girl there consisted or
some sort of a cake or puff or pie and
a glass Of soda, costing perhaps or 10
cents For. IA cents two of them could
have bought bottle of milk and loaf
of rye bread, shared 1t and been provided

The Forbidden Fruit.

1t was probably because Of it's delicious
favor that the first vendors of what We
now know as grapefruit chose to call 1t
the Forbidden Fruit At any rate that
was long given as the name~of this most
refreshing of all the citrus fruits. and 1t
was only because of a supposed similar
ity of the flavor of this fruit to that OF
the grape that it is now known as grape
fruit. OF course technically 1t is still
the pomelo.
What did We ever do without the
grapefruit? What took its place as an
appetizer to precede the luncheon or the
dinner? How did we ever breakfast
without the choice of half of an iced
grapefruit to vary the monotony or
oranges, apples and bananas? But we
did get along without it somehow, and
many of us remember the first time we
ever tasted this strange, expensive fruit
of the tropics. How we puckered our
imouth and didn't know whether we should
like 1t or mott But modern methods or
Transportation have brought 1t WITHIN
easy reach of all of us now. VIII an
other decade bring us the avocado win
its delicate nutlike flavor, and the much-
admired mango and the sapodilla, when
are seen only on the tables Of the rich
in northern climates?
Grapefruit as an Appetizer.
I To prepare grapefruit for the first
course of luncheon or dinner, cut it In
two in the middle. remove seeds and fiber
with a sharp knife. Then run the knife
around the outside of the pulp. just in
side the rind and six or eight times to-
ward the rind from the center. The

individual taste and upon the acidity of
the fruit. A little sherry or maraschino
juice with two cherries on each half adds
to its favor and appearance.
The following grapefruit cocktail may
also be served as an appetizer. To make
it take glass nearly full of shaved ice
and pour on it four tablespoonful of
currant juice, one tablespoonful of mara
schino juice. Stir together. strain and
put into a sherbet glass with one table
spoonful of grapefruit pulp. This rule
is enough for one portion.
Grapefruit Salad.
To use grapefruit as a salad remove
the pulp from the rind and add to let
tuce leaves with chopped nuts or celery.
Serve with either mayonnaise or French
dressing.
Grapefruit Jelly.
A delicious jelly dessert can be made
with the following ingredients: One-third
of cupful of sugar, one-half tablespoon
full of graduated gelatine. one-half cup
full of grapefruit juice, one tablespoon
full of lemon juice and few grains of
salt.
Make a strip by. pouring one-third of a
cupful of boiling water over the sugar in
a saucepan and boiling for three minutes.
Remove from the fire and add the gela-
tin, which has been soaked for a few
minutes in one-half tablespoonful of cold
water Add the grapefruit juice, the
lemon Juice, the suggestion of salt and
strain through a fresh piece of gauze
into jelly mold or into individual cups
and chill.

shampooins. Too frequent washing of
the hair Is injurious when soaps that
contain alkali in excess or hurtful cherni-
cal shampoo mixtures are used. A good
brushing has an excellent cleansing and
tonic effect. Sprinkling orris powder on
the hair and then thoroughly brushing it
out constitute dry shampoo: but this

SHAMPOOING NECESSARY
FOR HEALTHY HAIR

Hair troubles have really only two pos
sible causes. One is the state of health
and the other is neglect of the proper
treatment. No woman should have dull,
dank and colorless hair If she will take
the trouble to get at the root of the evil
and see what is the cause Of such a con-
dition of hair and scalp.
Health Is a most important factor in
producing beautiful, glossy hair, which
keeps its color and vitality. Indigestion,
nervous strain and organic trouble pro-
duce an impoverished condition of the
scalp, resulting in hair that loses in color
and quantity.
Just how the accumulation of dust and
grease can be of any more benefit to the
hair than to the skin has never been ex-
