may be used in place Of the lemon juice, with the
addition Of few tarragon leaves blanched md

A beautful-looking salad to serve ut Easter
is the water lily salad which is as delicious to the
taste as Its appearance suggests. To make this
salad cut the whites Of hnrd-boed eggs into point
ed. peta-ke strips. Keep out couple OF yolks,
but mash the rest. Mix with mayonnaise and fill
the calyx OF the arranged petals with the mixture.
Put the remainder over the petals to give the mp
pearance of pollen. Cut lettuce Leaves In fine
points to simulate the outer leaves. Served on
low glass dish this salad appears ut Its best. II
Is better served Individual glass dishes than
on a larger platter.
Green pepper, lettuce and tomato salad. Crisp
the lettuce leaves by laying In cold water for half
an hour. Then shake dry and lay on the Ice. Take
the sweet green or red peppers and with pair OF
scissors cut the peppers In iengthwise ribbons.
Slice the tomatoes Arrange the tomatoes on the
