Home Course in Cooking

and strength depends more on their
food than upon anything else. A child
from 3 to 5 years old requires 4-1O
as much food as man at moderate
work; from to years u as much,
while boy Is years old requires as
large quantity of food as his father
engaged at moderate labor.
Thin People Eat More.
In a cold climate, more food is
needed, and this fact is not due to the
temperature, but to the great activity
of the people, and it will be noticed
that fat forms large proportion of
the northern diet, as it is oxydized
slowly in the body. A tall thin per-
son consumes more food than a short
stout person, for the reason that a
larger surface is exposed and is the
cause of greater loss of heat.

sidered. 1t is homely but true say

Tho Pineapple In EnoIand.

Pineapples, which Londoners can
now buy at the cheapest rate within
living memory, first reached England
In the latter part of the seventeenth
century. The fruit was thus novelty
to Sir christopher Wren's generation:
but he soon recognized its value as an
architectural ornament. and copper
pineapples about Ave feet high figure
prominently on the towers of St.
Paul's. So highly did Wren esteem
the fine proportions and enriched sur
face Of this fruit that his original de-
sign for st. Paul's shows an enormous
pineapple in the place of the dome.
Happily his rnaturer thoughts saved
US from that appalling spectacle. Since
Wren the pineapple has been as much
at home IN our architecture as on our
dinner tables. It has descended even
to cast iron, and Is frequently found in
old-fashioned streets. Queen Victoria

be charming with yoke of white lace
finished either with a stock collar or

OF any preferred length, for these can
be cut off above the elbows, below the

For the crepe, bands of black velvet

on a straight skirt and in graduating
widths and for the neck edge, perhaps
little ruftle of the crepe with velvet
as heading.

MENU BUILDING.
BY KATE B. VAUGHN,

Food is necessary to build tissue,
replenish waste, create heat and en-
ergy and satisfy appetite. In order
to be perfect food, it must contain
sufficient protein or tissue building
elements to cause a continual and
gradual growth and to overcome ia
tigue sufficient starch and sugar to
give an abundance of energy and body
heat; fat in sufficient quantity to re-
place loss in illness of great mental
or muscular eXertion, and ash or min
eral salts for feeding bones and It's
sues.
This balanced ration may be obtain
ed in several ways and without varie-
ty. For instance we may eat meat
bread and butter and potatoes, but a
continuation of this diet, while it may
cost a great deal for meat and butter,
would not give good results, as the
dict would be too concentrated and
constipation and it's attendant ills
would follow Or, one might eat en-
tirely of vegetables, such as beans and
potatoes. and the quantity necessary
to supply the required amount OF
protein would give too much bulk
and often tissue starvation will oc-
cur.
Buy Supplies Weekly.
In providing food for a normal
family, the housekeeper will find it
provident to decide upon and put in
a weeks supplies, thereby insuring a
variety of we'll balanced meals at less
cost. There is no more extravagant
habit than buying one meal at time.
The housekeeper will find that plan
ming a few days ahead until three
meals a day are provided for, allow
ing some variation for vegetables,
meats and desserts, and providing
against the embarrassment of a
quick meal, will give her feeling OF
security never possible where only
one meal is taken care OF at a time.
