An old legend relates that one OF
the Arab chieftains supplied each OF
his soldiers with q bag Of dates aud
. loaf Of barley bread and that with
this equipment they started on on .
ten days march. Because OF Its very
high sugar content the date offers In
b condensed form an unusual amount
Of energy. It is q particularly good
sweet for children. much more to be
preferred than artificial candy.
Dates are most frequently eaten
raw. but are equally good In many
cooked forms, as many Of the follow
ing recipes will indicate. When corr
bined with nuts and used with mix
they form. indeed. a complete meal. -
vegetariafis have often proved.
Dates With Cereal.-Wash q pound
OF dates and let them stand In q PINT

to a boil. then simmer gently for .
few minutes. havoring with , few
drops OF lemon or lime or orange
Juice. Remove the fruit, add little
sugar to the liquid left in the sauce
pan and simmer until thickened. Pour
over the fruit and serve cold.
Date Sandwiches. = Chop st'ued
dates until soft enough to spread. Use
thin slices of buttered bread and make
sandwiches. Instead of buttering tho
bread one may substitute hnely
chopped nuts, II desired. These sand
