Variety of Interesting Subjects Discussed for Home
Food LuxurieS
BY BERTHA e. SHAPLEIGH
OF Columbia University.

There comes time, perhaps in
April or May, or in some parts of the
country December and January, when
the housewife in buying supplies is
sorely tempted to buy, what seems to
her, unwisely and possibly extrav-
agantly. There are vegetables and
fruits which are a little out of sea-
son, and she longs to purchase a deli
cacy for the family.
There is, / think, a justification
for such expenditure at times, and
the wise woman will buy pleasure
giving" foods, and balance her budget
by having a cheaper cut of meat Or
n less expensive vegetable another day.
If during the week n meal or two
contain surDrise-a favorite dessert,
Or n cake or pie, an unusual salad, or
choice cut of meat. the housewife
can keep her family satisfied and hap
ply. 1t is the deadly monotony of
food, no matter how good it may be.
that we cannot stand without fussing.
Sometimes the color of strawber-
ries are as appealing as the flavor.
Who cannot be moved by the combina-
ton of strawberries. sugar, butter, hot
biscuits and cream? In combination
it is the "old-fashioned strawberry
shotcake which some consider the orly
real" one. Others are equally pleased
with cake filled with berries and
white on top. with beaten cream.
For breakfast or lunch on a warm
spring day is there any dish more in
viting than broiled shad roe on a bed
Of watercress?
Or some days there will be mush-
rooms in the market, cheap and good.
One can make meal Of creamed

King Tut Struts on Broadway and the
Debutante SLOUGH Sinks Off!
BY MARIAN HALE
New York, April fixing Tut Ia

New York, April fixing Tut has
finally brought the Tut Strut TO
Broadway
1t has completely ousted the debu-
tante SLOUGH, not only as terpsicho-
reau novelty but as real body builder
and health giver. 1t is scheduled to

explains-and Dolly is noted her

at is a revival Of the old Egyptian
walk of Cleopatra's day. In those
ancient times, music was used only
for marching of soldiers and TO make
the walk of the Egyptian women more
graceful.
Before the dcbutsrte SLOUGH, we
had the kangaroo walk-a terrible or

hips out. Then came the debutante

The idea is to present silhouette

be held akimbo at all times. For
further details consult any old Egyp-
tan frieze and the new mode will DC

To aid this we are going to carry
high canes, fastened TO the hand, much
longer than those carried by men, so
We can have our angles always with

Old Tunes Help.
Miss Connolly has made an inten-
sive study of Egyptian music.
Every tune" she says. "affects
some different part of the body. Some
make us want to tap our feet-martial
airs; others make us want TO shake
our heads-Gaelic jigs; but the Egyp-
tians aim right for the shoulders.
"The music of King Tuts day was
practically the same as the negro
spirituals of our southern states. In
fact, these airs have been handed down
from generation to general ton by the
earliest slaves. 1t has finally been
corrupted to the jazz of our day.

Remarkable Tonic Brings New Strength
TO Thousands Of Weak and Ailing
Discovery of zyk0, the Great General Tonic,
Gives Aid of Science TO Run. Down People

H. jenkins, of Chicago, is an
other to whom Lyko has meant
renewed strength and vigor. The
following is from his letter: "My
business keeps me closely confined
to the Office and at a desk all day
long. AS q result, my system be-
came all clogged up, / was always
tired, rested poorly at night and
grew nervous and irritable. began
using Lyko and now ! am in fine
shape again, feel cheerful, and am
able to do much more work without
fatigue or nervous strain"
Mitchell Murray, of Missouri,
sends letter which says: "When
/ began to take Lyko / was so weak
l could hardly walk across the room.
Now ! am able to do a pretty fair
days work, and my neighbors are
amazed at the effect"
]. d. Miller of Chicago writes:
"We have been using Lyko in our
family and find it the best tonic for
stomach and bowels we have ever
used"
F. B. Barker of Florida isanother
who writes in praise of Lyko. He
says: my wife's health was all
run down and she has greatly i'm
proved since taking Lyko."
Lyko is a scientific preparation
containing pure medicinal ingredi-
ents each of which has beneficial
action on some part of the system.
1t has amid but effective laxative
action which gets rid of constipa-

ton. 1t also stimulates a lazy
stomach to normal action and i'm
proves digestion 80 that the body
absorbs the full strength from the
food. As many ailments come from
a disordered digestive system or
from clogged up condition of the
bowels, Lyko helps to remove one
of the great causes of discomfort
and illness.
Certain ingredients in Lyko have
a direct and beneficial action on
the kidneys and liver; others give
strength to the nervous system and
prevent what is known as nervous
fatigue and mental exhaustion.
Practically every part of the body
is helped to return to its full health
and strength by Lyko. And a
healthy body means physical and
mental power, magnetic personal
ity, the appearance that brings ad.
miration and confidence.
