Fruits are always tempting. and with little paper cases one may use any fresh fruit.
 If cake is to be used simple one that can be easily packed is best for d lunch if made in a square, as a box can always be made to fit it so closely that it cannot be broken by shaking about. The box should be lined first with tissue paper. then next to the cake with oiled paper. with the paper large enough to cover the cake well when folded over, and the box cover dust proof and securely tied. When slices of cake are to be used, it is best to wrap each slice in piece of oiled paper, then pack in a box ill which the slices fit securely. PEANUT SANDWICHES.
 Put the desired amount of fresh roasted peanuts through a meat chopper, moisten we'll with mayon- naise, and spread between buttered slices of Boston brown bread Wrap each sandwich in oiled paper then stack and wrap all together and seal.

FOOD OF 4 LIFETIME.

 Fifty-four tons of solid food anC fifty-three tons of liquid-about 1,30( times your own weight.
 The tons of bread you have con sumed would equal in size smal family hotel, and ton and a guar ter would be the equivalent weight of butter.
 If you had been a lover of bacon and were to stretch it out In singl' slices, four miles would be the length. Five tons of fish and l2 900 eggs stand to our credit, while a normal cheese eater easily con sumes 400 pounds
 The vegetables you have COT sumed would fill a train three miles long, and to that train load yet could add 10000 pounds of suga, and l,5OO pounds of salt.

Movie Craze In South America

an excellent orchestra if they ar rive during the middle of a per formance, as they are not permitted to enter the house proper while the show is in progress. So gen orally is this custom in force that it has become daily habit to array ones self in ones best clothes and to display them to the admir- ing throng in the lobby. It has become. in fact, veritable peacock alley
 "One of the most interesting eX- hibitions which beheld was that in the New Theatre in Bueos Aires. Arrangements were made to hold the entertainment in the afternoon and invitations were especially IS sued to the officials of the city. the most important exhibitors, and mem bers of the press. An orchestra C.. IS pieces was engaged to play for the performance and everything was arranged in accordance with the best American precepts.
 AS everyone knows who is a, all familiar with life in Bueno3 Aires, society there must have it's tea at exactly 5 o'clock Nothing is permitted to interfere. l believe that If the city were burning down society would repair to the big ho- tels which were not actually in flames in order to have it's tea. l therefore planned to have the per formanCe over by 5, but various things interfered and there was still another entire picture to be run at 5.
 Great enthusiasm had been mani fested by my guests, among whom were the mayor of the city and at least 50 persons who were promi- nent in society, but I was thorough ly prepared to have them depart al the customary hour. But not one of them stirred! Every person in the theatre remained until 6:30 o'clock-a fact which astounded even the managers of the theatres.
 "Of course. Buenos Aires is cele- brated as one of the greatest ope- ratio centers of the world, where all the internationally famous opera singers appear. It is here that Geraldine Farrar has scored one of the biggest successes of her ca reer. Particularly did she triumph in the operas Carmen and Madame Butterfly It was natural then that Buenos Aires should have been de- lighted with the film adaptation Of Carmen

AUTOMOBILE AND OUTING LUCNHES

Tie arrival of the summer days. with auto and boating parties and pcnics, makes the preparation of lunches for box, basket or hamper quite an important duty in the home.
 An effort should be made to make the lunch attractive, refresh, ing and nourishing. It may be a simple matter to have a lunch all of these things when first pr2 pared. but it Is quite another thin2 to have it arrive at some remote destination in the same condition. Sandwiches have grown to o2 so popular that no lunch seems quite complete without them. They can be made the most substantial part of the lunch by making the filling of meat or they can be made with a light filling to serve with meat; they can take the place of d salad if of lettuce and some other vegetable with plenty of mayor naise, or serve as a sweet course 'i made of sweet bread or lady fin. gers, with sweet filling.
 The question of the kind of sand wich to use is decided by the other foods to be served with it If a meat, such as spring chicken or the little meat soufties, is to be served a sandwich of olives or let tuce is good If the meat is ole which is better in a sandwich than alone, use stuffed tomatoes with 1t, in the place of salad. Lettuce to serve with them can be easily kept fresh, if washed, drained well, and tightly closed in a glass jar, or wrapped in damp cheesecloth and kept cool.
 Nut sandwiches are quite as nour- ishing as those made with meat and may be served with balls of cottage cheese. Club sandwiches are deli cious, and when accompanied with cheese balls or stuffed eggs make substantial as well as an appe- tizing lunch.
 Every sandwich should be wrapped separately ;n oiled paper, then stacked in convenient shape to pack, and all wrapped together, first in oiled, then in tissue paper, and sealed with gummed binding Each stuffed tomato should be wrapped and sealed in the same way, and sliced when ready to serve.
