II is an unfafing fact in regard 70
fruit and vegetables that that which is
most abundant Is most delicious. You
may look forward with keen interest
to the hothouse rawberry that you
buy in February and you may serve Il
with considerable fuss, frilIs and fiut-
ings as befts the price you paid for IL,
but IL Is the berry that ripens under
May or June sky a few miles away
from your own door and that is picked
little while before you eat Il that
gives you the true satisfaction OF haT-
ing eaten strawberries. So with TO-
matoes Those pithy. agreenish love
apples that you get in the hotels and
pay fifty cents a portion for when
snow IS flying are not in the same class
with the tomatoes that the farmer
brings around some day in midsummer
and offers TO you with disgust in his
voice. He'll sell them for fifty cents =
basket, ne tells You. They have ali
ripened at once and they are rotting
on the vines. They are luscious and
red and fun OF meat and flavor and
the skin peels off them like glove.
Experts on food buying viii tell you
that one OF the greatest lessons you
can learn is the thrift in buying what
is most abundant The very fact that
it is abundant means that it has been
grown near 10 Your market and tais
means that It has notAbeen carried far
and has not even had a whin OF cold
storage. Il means that il is in season.
and things in season are always much
better, save 70 a jaded appetite. than
things that are out.
In fact. of late years 1t has been re-
garded as rather poor taste TO serve
many out OF season delicacies at ou-
dinner parties. American hostesses OF
recently acquired millions used 10 be
politely laughed at-behind their backs
of course-by their English guests for
serving so many viands out of season.
The only time they would regard green
corn on the cob as vulgar would be
when It might be had without being
raised under glass or shipped from
dear knows how far away. Green peas
lost their interest when they were in
season and with these people il woIld
never do to serve our own American
grapes when grapes were in season
The cnly grapes that We're interesting
were those raised under glass or i'm
ported at much expense from Some
warmer CLINE The English hostess
and the discriminating American host
eSS avoids thiS sort OF thlns ana KNOWS
that the best she has TO offer is fruit
and vegetables raised in season on her
own place. The fresher it IS and the
more in season the more delicious ami
the more worth Offering to discriminat-
ing guests.
In most of our city markets It IS
possible TO get fresh Vegetables all the
year round. And if YOU make a point
of using only those vegetables that are
in season you win find that you give
each vegetable a chance and avoid get
ting tired of any one sort OF vegetable.
For instance. il you have been eating
canned spinach during the summer
then there is no special pleasure IN
looking forward to fresh spinach now
that cold weather is coming with a
return of spinach for q short season.

Few persons are so poor that they
cannot afford some sort OF little walk
every day. but its duration and the de-
gree OF speed with which 1t is taken
must depend upon the exerciser. One
woman may be able to take only half
hours walk a day, but another will
need two huurs Of the exercise. and still
others mus b longer time. English
and German women walk ten miles at
a time and think nothing of II, doing
the stunt az e quick trot that leaves
the body fresher at the end of the
promenade than at the beginning. My
advice to the novice in walking would
be TO go a: it rather slowly at first.
and confine the distance to a mile or
two. This gentle strolling may be
Quickened or slackened as one feels In
clined, but the blessed benefit OF out
door exercise will still be felt and made
apparen-.
Women who have tolerable health,
and who wish to reduce weight or en-
courage suppleness at the waist, will
find more good in a gentle uphill exer-
else than in going down hill or along
level roads. II is always better, too. to
walk on the good earth itself than on
macadam or packed road of any other
hard sort, as the natural earth yields
to the step, thus Tightening the shock
on the spine. Persons who spend their
lives in the city are often given to ner-
yous diseases brought on by always
walking on stones or on excellent imita-
tions of them. Still, a walk in the city
park is handy. wholesome rest to the
eyes and mind will be gained by the
sight of green growing things. In fact.
resting the spirit with every fair and
interesting thing that comes along is
one OF the most beneficial things about
Bad weather should never interrupt the
jaunt. 1t must be taken in winter and
summer, rain and calm, for it is in this
way the body becomes Injured to the
elements and takes on the resistance IL
should have to combat disease and time.
One can always become accustomed
to the weather, and while drinking in
the fresh air consequent to the walk
the tendency TO colds Is much lessened.
The lungs and mucous membrane are
both hardened and healed with the stay
outdoors, and as the blood is thereby
purified with every breath the chance
the disease germ is looking for is made
small indeed. In truth the human race
could walk away" from all the ills to

YOUR PORCH IN COLD WEATHER.

Cold weather should not make your
porches and verandas useless.
To De sure. everyone will admit that
a veranda is most enjoyable in warm
weather. IN cold weather it is useful.
For Air and Ererctse-Cse the
veranda as much as you can in cold
weather 4 part OF the house shat IS
only needed for half the year IS some
thing Of an extravaganza To be sure,
a furnace is only needed for part OF the
year. and SO are the fireplaces. But
these things do not occupy the space
occupied py vcrandas.
II the day is very blustery and cold
and windy. take exercise on the We
randa. If the sun is shining. wait until
II shines on the veranda. Then. dressed
warmly, but not 50 awkwardly and
heavily as you would have 70 dress for
walking in the street, exercise BY walk
ing Up and down the veranda.
If YOU are well bundled UP, you can
sit almost every winter day on the
veranda You can read. or take your
afternoon nap there
Many a baby has been kept in good
health because il has had a sheltered
veranda whereon 70 take its winter
maps Wrapped warmly the baby can
be tucked securely in its carriage or
crib. If the veranda is on the ground
floor. a gate win make It a much safer
place. even fer a baby's nap. For
carriage might roll down the steps, II
for some reason it .hould start 20 90;
and cats aud dogs Of an investlgative
turn might wande> up on the veranda
and startIe the baby
Oldf -Andren might well be given
their Winter maps on a verauda. If II is
secluded enough. In fact. il can be
made a daytime sleeping porch If it IS
any other than the entrance porch at
the front Of the house. Such a porch
would be too public and usually too
noisy for comfortable mapping.
For Clednip0.--A Veranda IS the
ideal place for al sorts OF cleaning. II
YOU have gloves or fnery to clean with
naphtha clean it in the sunshine on the
veranda Brush YOUR coats and skirts
there. Sweep rugs there and beat ana
shake cushions and pillows and blankets
and drapery there Then sweep up the
dust anf Il it-such of il as has not
blown away You viii feel much better
for doing cleaning Of al sorts out-of-
doors and at the same time your house
will be that much fresher and cleaner.

MUST THE SMALL
HATS REALLY GO

There are some women who never
feel srnartly dressed for the street un-
less they are wearing a small hat. This
does not mean that the small hat is
any smarter-simply that some women
feel smarter when wearing II, and
there is no denying the fact that when
autumn winds begin to blow 1t is vastly
easier to keep ones locks trim and in
place under a small hat than q large
one.
Undoubtedly Il would be very hard
for a good many women ever to give up
the small hat. Yet there are times
when small hats are quite out Of fash
ion. A couple OF decades ago no one
but old women or widows in their weeds
wore small hats, and those small hats
were bonnets. When the so-called toque
came in il was a real novelty. SO you
see, the small hat may go out OF style.
And there are those who say that
with the dress silhouette tending
whittier II now is the small hat will
simply have TO go. II we are TO wear
skirts that give the effect OF broadness
through the hips we will look absurd
in our small hats. The only way to
finish the picture as II should be fin
ished will be TO wear wide brimmed
hats or very tall hats. The very high
headdress OF the period of Louis XIV in
France was worn TO counteract the
dwarfing effect Of the wide-hipped pam
nier frock and .Jhen full skirts were
in vogue some tY.e elve or fifteen years
ago hats that were extremely wide
so wide that you could not have worn
one into a telephone booth without
holding your head side dewise-came into
vogue.
However for the present there seems
TO be little chance that the -hfpped
silhouette will have anything to do with
our tailored costumes. For street the
straight up and down silhouette will

that the distended hip could never sue

you TO occupy your little corner in a
crowded elevator or to squeeze into
some of those close passages that every
one does have TO encounter In going
about by rail.
