GOOD HOUSEKEEPING.

A LUNCH TO p UT IN THE
TOURING CAR

This is the season when people who
have automobiles are planning merry
little all-day tours in the open. II is
astonishing how hungry one can become
from merely sitting in u machine and
watching the scenery roll by, but that Is
the case. A really substantial lunch
will be welcomed after halliday spent
in the car. and the person who thinks
the following menu may be too heavy
for such an occasion, should put 1t to
the test after spinning through the coun-
try for several hours.

SUMMER DESSERTS


There are so many delicious things
ahead of us in the way of desserts-all
the berries, peaches pears, pluns and
cherries, TO say nothing of waterInelons
and cantalOupes. In midsummer fresh
fruit surely is the best dessert.
Still we all tire, occasionally, of plain
fruit. no matter how delicious or how
fresh IL may be. We crave q mad"
dessert.
For such occasions there are, indeed,
MANY delicious things to make that COM
bine the delights of fresh fruit and made
dessert.
One OF these is the fruit tart. Perhaps
IL is best made with strawberries; still,
when peach season comes, you will be
sure to think it is better with peaches.
This is the way to make II: Prepare q
crust Of good pastry and bake IT. Then
fill IL with hulled Strawberries or shced
teaches, sweetened little, and cover
with slightly sweetened cream. That Is
all But it is one Of the best desserts ever
made.
of course. too. there are all sorts Of
short cake, from those made with layers
OF sweet cake put together with crushed
and sweetened fruit, and topped with
whipped cream, to those made of tiny
crisp, brown biscuits, split, buttered and
filed with sweetened fruit.
Then there are fruit puffs-cream puff
shells, split open and filed with sweetened
fruit and whipped cream or custard.
Next, come the custard made with
fruit. An egg or egg-and-oornstarch
custard may be poured warm over a
bowlful Of berries or peaches and then
allowed to become chilled. This may be
served with whipped cream or with q
meringue if desired. But it is good with
