and Nutritious nc the ocea.
sion Calls For.

For sewing-day luncheon this
makes palatable menu: Asparagus
on toast, hot tea biscuit. marmalade
and tea.
Use canned asparagus tips. Drench
them with cold water the moment the
can is opened; drain thoroughly In
colander and warm in a double. boil
er; put in little butter during the
warming and season to taste. Make
a hard toast of white bread, butter
the slices and put the asparagus on
top; set the dish on a far part OF
the stove to keep warm while the
other things are arranged. Get the
bakers tea biscuit of the evening be-
fore and rewarm them in the oven.
first brushing over the tops with q
little milk. There Is an American
marmalade-orange, OF course-that
sells at II cents jar. It is delicious.
Menu: Stewed kidneys and rice,
raw tomatoes and chocolate eclairs
and coffee.
The main dish can be warmed up to
advantage, so it can be made the
day before. Ask the butcher for
fresh veal kidney or six or eight
fresh lamb kidneys. Skin them and
soak In ice water and salt for ten
minutes. Cut them in half'iHch
pieces, or smaller if liked. and put
them in rs cupfuls Of water
to stew. II the kidneys are not from
a well-nourished animal less water
will be required, as this absorbs the
substance Cook two slices OF onion
with them and the salt and pepper,
letting them get perfectly tender yet
not mushy. Cook a cupfui OF rice in
a quart of water and when half done
drain in through a colander, put It IN
a saucepan, set 1t on the back of the
stove, and let it steam half an hour
more. On the sewing day rewarm
the kidneys In little butter. and
steam the rice until the grains are
separated: serve them on the same
dish. The cellars cost three cents
apiece.
Menu: Baked beans. Boston brown
bread and cocoa.
The canned beans prepared with
sugar and tomatoes are fine for this
luncheon, while the little Ave and ten
cent cones of brown bread sold by
the baker can be made to take the
place of the homemade article.
Put the closed bean can in one
double boiler and the bread In an
other and let them both get steam
ing hot. Serve on piping-hot plates
and, IL possible, provide sweet butter
for the bread. For a single person
this lunch, which Is the most sub
stantial that can be had, will cost
just IL cents-five for beans, five for
bread and two for cocoa.
Menu: Fresh strawberries and
cream, homemade bread, sweet but
ter and glass of milk thinned with
vichy.
If the Strawberries are free of sand
do not wash them, as this dims the
exquisite taste. Hull them and serve
them on a plate with cone-shaped
mound of powdered sugar beside
each serving. Have the cream sepa-
rate, as these delicate berries soon
sour after it is put on. The baker
sells homemade bread. and yester-
days loaf is more palatable than to-
days. It is also cheaper. The object
of the vichy in the rich milk is to
make 1t more digestible while i'm.
proving the taste.
