Celery as a Basis and a Flavorins

NELERY should be used az frequently as
u possible. not only because OF lts delicious
favor, but because 1t is one of the few veg.
etables possessing so many highly valuable
chemical salts. Indeed, II has been declared
very often that celery has direct curative
properties for the nervous. rheumatic or
neuralgia person. Incidentally there Is
virtually no waste to oelery--every bit OF
Il can be used.
OF course, we know best the use OF the
delicate inside stalks, for salads and filings
But the outside stalks, even though not per.
feet enough in appearance for service In
the raw, should not be neglected, but stewed
or used In the making of soup. The trim.
mings, too--leaves, imperfect stalks-can be
added to broths, soups or used to help
favor other dishes The addition OF little
chopped celery to any kind OF meat or
vegetable dish Is sure to improve its flavor.
II celery is not used Immediately, II
should be wrapped In paper and Kept In a
cool place and II will then remain in per-
feet condition for many days
