vast changes, one of which has af-

TO our hearts-through our stOm-

is that our enforced alteration in
diet has caused an alteration also
in our Wristbands, and instead of
wreaking dire misfortune, has had
indeed the opposite effect. Even
the most ardent ante-bellum sup
porters of the wheaty, meaty diet,

and feel worlds better for the
change. So we find ourselves on
the threshold of another Christ

out delicacies, which pass the
sugar censor, and combine the ad-
vantage of being patriotic with
the JOY of knowing that we will
not be haunted BY Nightmares fol-
lowing the rich feasts, as We had in
the days of yore.
Herewith are given two simple
menus, each we'll within the reach
of the average purse. The recipes
which follow are given for the elu-
