Foods For Diet
BY JEAN PRESCOTT ADAMS

The average person OF forty or over
years goes on blithely eating the
foods that tickle the palate.
Only when there is noticeable de-
crease in efficiency. or when natures
detectives become too insistent, does
he stop to study the cause
The physician may say Give on a
diet very low in starch and sugar"
To one who has not specialized in
foods this will doubtless convey only
vague meaning. The following lists
have been prepared to aid those try
ing to arrange such diet.
Foods with Low Percentage Of
Starch and Sugar.
Soups-Or broth of beef, chicken
mutton, veal, oysters, clans, beef tea
mot thickened with flour or cereaD
A high grade of canned soups are
much more convenient for special diet
uses and just as corrective as freshly
made soups. Use the best extract OF
beef for beef broth.
Fish All kinds of fish Keep a
quantity of quality canned fish, such
as salmon. lobster, sardines, shrimp
and tuna on hand.
Eqgs-Identified eggs, or those Sc
lected and packed In cartons with the
name of national food organization
on the carton, are always satisfactory.
Buy for quality in special diet cases
always.
Meats-All meats except liver. The
U. S. Government inspection stamp
guarantees wholesomeness in every
cut you buy.
veaetabIes-String beans. spinach
beet tops, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, as
paragus. celery, radishes. olives.
Use the liquor these are cooked In !;
it is rich in corrective mineral salts.
The very best canned vegeta bles are
equally as healthful as the best cooked
fresh vegetables. Use the liquor of
the canned vegetables also.
Desserts Custards, ice cream
(made without sugar., almonds,
pecans, Brazil nuts.
Use fresh or high grade eyaporated
milk for custards or creams.

THE "PLAToNic FRIEND"


Had Janet Stedman been a figure in
fiction instead Of q fleeh-and-blood
young woman of the twentieth cen
fury, and business woman at that,
with vigorous ideas Of her own. she
probably would never have laid eyes
on Roy Nicoll again. A man who had
taken her neutrality-suspicious. her!
Moreover. q man who had calmly dis.
cussed with her afterward the reasons
for his doing so. A man who had
actually defended his action on the
ground that most women liked being
made love to and resented being
thought safe" And, above all, her
own reasonable view Of the matter and
her friendly parting with Nicoll at the
end Of the drive.
Janet realized she had followed al
unconventional course. A conventional
woman would have slapped Nicoll, OF
at least screamed or, hesitating on
the scream, would have frozen him
with cold glares and words. saying
Never come near me again. You
have insulted me beyond redemption.
But somehow Janet did not feel
terribly insulted. In measure she
understood Roy's impetuous behavior
She even made excuses on the ground
that by going for motor rides with a
man other than her own husband she
had invited exactly what followed.
Nicoll's defense of men in general
interested Janet greatly. Walt, too
had used the same argument in favor
of his own sex. Perhaps they were
right and she was wrong. Perhaps
women DID receive just the treatment
they bid for
Janet felt like putting the theories
to a test. If the situation were in her
own hands there would be no harm
in keeping NicolPs friendship-being
pals with him; having him for "pla
tonic friend" She enjoyed his com
partnership hugely. He had the charm
and wisdom of a thorough man of the
world. He was immensely rich, SC

vERNIS PETTY IS
BILLETTED ON Rhine

Several letters have been received
recently from Vernis Petty. who is
with the American Army of Occupa-
ton in Germany. He writes:
1--WE haven't reached Berlin yet,
but We are billeted on the Rhine.
Surely some fine scenery in this part
of the country. Rock cliffs on either
eide of the river. Only room enough
along the river for the road and rail-
road 1t looks good to see United
States box cars.
We are billeted in the house with a
private family now. We sleep in a
nice room with a stove in it; we sleep
on the floor, but have plenty of clean
straw.
We haven't received any mail for
about a month. One of the fellows
in the company got a letter of mine
and carried it for about two weeks be-
fore he thought to give it to me.
We have been doing some rambling
about for the last month, all on foot,
too. We have been following the Ger
man soldiers as they are evacuating
this country. We are near the end of
our journey now.
Just heard that two bags of mail
came in.
I suppose there has been lots Of
snow in Indiana by this time. We
haven't had any snow over here yet.
Have had some frosty night but no
snow. 1t rains almost every evening.
Have seen some old stone castles on
the tops of the cliffs.
We have reached the town where
we will stay for while. We put in
eighteen days hiking. Had some stops
on the way. We are in nice town a
few miles from the Rhine This town
has a population of about eighteen
hundred.
| think we will not have a white
Christmas over here. 1t showed a
few flakes night before last, but melt
ed as it fell. We don't ever wear our
overcoats, so you can see 1t isn't very
cold.
We are again living in house with
private family. Five of us in one
room. We have stove with plenty
Of wood and coal, also an electric
light.

We had white Christmas after ALL
It showed the night before, one of the
wet ones. The trees and everything
It could possibly stick to were covered.
About three inches, Of it. It melted
the next day and the streets got
packed down smooth as glass. One
could hardly stand up on them.
The people here celebrated Christ
mas almost the same as we do in the
States. They had tree decorated
the same. as we do. l guess 1t was
a rather slim Christmas for most of
them We each received a box from
the Y. M. C. A. 1t contained a bar of

two packs OF cigarettes.

Just received your letter Of the 10th.
We were just paid off day before yes

quite an assortment of money now,
francs, marks and good old United
States money. l have a twenty dol
lar bill got from one of the fellows
who came in the company a few
weeks ago. The paper money over
