fasts.
1t is wise to remember that the first
meal should be happy, quiet one,
starting the family off to their various
duties in cheerful frame Of mind.
There have been no statistics compiled
which tell us of the tragedies, crimes
and miseries which have been caused
by poor food, bolted In wild and
dlsordered household; who can tell
the far-reaching effects Of such condi-
lions?
When proper thought has been given
the menu, there Is no reason that 1t
should not be varied, as there are
countless ways of serving the COM
mon things. Heavy. hearty foods are
not good for inactive people and when
one feels stupid and dull an hour or
two after eating 1t is wise to look into
the menu.
Most people enjoy a bit Of fruit in
season the first thing, then a dish Of
cereal Of some kind, which, because
Of the variety, may be different every
| morning: an egg or bacon and toast
with a cup Of coffee, will be sufficient
for the average appetite.
Hot breads, waffles, grlddle cakes
may occasionally take the place Of
toast, though the season and temper
allure affects the appetite.
Tomato Butter.-After cooking ripe
tomatoes, carefully removing all the
seeds possible, use nearly equal meas
ures of sugar and cook until thick.
Add an equal amount of well-cooked
slightly sweetened apple sauce to the
tomato and when hot put into glasses
and cover with paraffin. This is very
nice with meats In winter.
Southern Pudding.-Take two cup
fuls of mashed sweet potatoes, add the
yolks Of four eggs well beaten, two
pints Of milk, one-half cupful of sugar,
and teaspoonful Of cinnamon; stir
In lightly the whites of four eggs
beaten stiff and turn into a WE'LL
buttered baking dish to bake. Serve
with any sauce or without.
