 BErrTC SYMPTOMS
By LAURA A. HERMAN

| rece1Ve so many requests for re- etpes for diabetic diet, that I be- l lieve the following will be welcome 1 to many of my readers. X physi- clans advice, however, is presupposed | before using these recipes.
 Almond Meal Gems: To make the almond meal at home blanch a quar- ter of a pound of almonds and roast them until lightly Drowned Then grind them through the food chop per and steep, but not bofl, them for 10 minutes in water just off the boil and to which a drop or two of vine gar has been added (this is to re- Drain, dry the nuts well and once more put them through the food chopper Add to this amount of al- butter and the yolks of 3 eggs beaten until lemon coloned. Then fold in the sdffly beaten whites of the eggs and l-4 teaspoon salt. Pour this batter into hot, buttered gem pans and bake in a moderately hot oven. Marrow Balls: These are nice used instead of crackers to eat with soup. Melt and strain three tablespoons of fresh beef marrow. Add salt to taste, a few grains of paprika. l we'll beaten egg and enough almond meal (made as above described) to make a paste that can be molded into tiny balls. Poach these balls in the hot soup that is kept just below the boil ing point-otherwise the rapid mo- tion of the boiling soup would tear
 
 Bran-Glutten Bread: Soften 1-2 yeast cake in 1-2 cup of tepid water and add 1-2 teaspoon of salt. cups of gluten flour, 1-2 cup of bran and dough that can be handled (about 1 cup). Knead well and add more gluten if necessary to prevent dough from sticking to board. Cover and let rise double in bulk; then form into a loaf, put this in a greased pan, let rise again for 1 hour. Bake as any bread.
 Grapefruit Salad: GAS sugar, like starches. must be excluded from the menu of a diabetic, most physicians forbid the sweet vegetables and frui s. Sour oranges and grapefruit served without sugar, are permissible, how ever, and these are more paIatable if served in the form of a salad with a cheese or French dressing as follows: Remove t.e sections from 1 large grapefruit and 1 orange and cut each section in two. Add 1-2 cup of skin ned and seeded Malaga grapes and 1-3 cup of chopped pecan nuts. Mix the ingredients together and heap them on lettuce, pouring over them the following cheese dressing:
 Roquetfort Dressing: Mash to paste l tablespoon of Roquetfort salad oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1-2 tablespoon lemon juice, 1-2 tea spoon salt and a dash of paprika.

It often happens that person is not able to buy these comm odEties in their local stores, so for this reason will be glad to send any reader, upon receipt of a stamp ed, self-addressed envelope, the ad- dress of a firm that will sell them these things by mail.
