Egg Salad Popular with Men.

melted butter, salt, mustard, paprika,
lemon Juice or vinegar, and cayenne.
Serve them on lettuce or cress with
either mayonnaise or French dressing.
Picked beets and hard boiled eggs
make combination which will be en-
joyed. The tartness of the beets adds
much to the rather bland flavor of
the eggs. Eggs. radishes, and water
cress are good together.
Another egg combination is that
with potatoes and onions using
boiled dressing. Egg and sardine to-
gether form a flavor that is delicious.
Owing to the lack of flavor in fresh
eggs, care must be taken to supply
