Nutrition Nuggets

If the children or the grown folk s
are tired of carrots try serving them
in a different form. Cut small car
rots lengthwise in finger shape pieces
and sprinkle with a bit of chopped
parsley or slice crosswise and use
with three rings with green string
beans in salad. Cubes or slices COM
bine well with peas and small whole
carrots make a pretty garnish for
the meat platter.
An attractive and appetiZing salad
is made by scattering grated raw car
rot over shredded cabbage. Serve
with French or mayonnaise dressing.
The carrot adds the pleasant bit of
color as well as important minerals
and vitamines.
If you are one of the many who
are endeavoring to reduce, remember
that ice cream and whipped cream
eaten at the soda fountain are apt
to add many pounds to your weight.
In warm weather it is vitality neces-
sary to exercise great diligence in
the care Of food. Spoiled food does
not always cause illness, but it is
very often the cause of intestinal dis
turbances. IT may tax the digestive
organs to such an extent that the
digestion of other foods is interfered
with and discomfort and a loss of
pep" result.
The pregnant mother should have
A quart Of milk every day in order
to supply a sufficient amount of lime
TO the bones in the child's body, as
we'll as the amount needed by her
own. If the mother tires of SO much
milk in her diet dried milk may be
used. Because of the fact that it is
in solid form and readily combined
with other foods, the milk powder
is often an acceptable change in the
diet
Too many trips to the soda foun-
tain may interfere with the regular
meals to such an extent that lam
guild and rundown condition may re-
suit. Because of being below par
the soda fountain addict may suffer
more from the heat than if he did
not indulge in so many cold drinks.
Indulgent mothers otGDn make the
mistake of allowing NE children to
play too hard and too long, especial
ly during the Summer and early Fall.
Rest is as important as good food.
Every child needs nap or at least
rest in the afternoon and IL or IA
hours sleep at night. II this is con-
tinued until children are quite grown
there will be fewer nervous children.

My Neighbor Says:

A good way TO save is to have
a little box AMI put every stray
or 10 cent piece in it. You
will be surprised to see at the
end of a month how many lit
tie things you can deny your
self without changing your
diet in the least.
Save all fat and grease for
soap, and all nice grease. such
as sausage, ham and pork fat,
for frying things in.
To test the temperature of an
oven for cake made with butter
use a piece of white writing
paper. If the oven is the right
temperature the paper should
turn deep yellow in five
minutes.
Pour few drops of ammonia
into every greasy roasting pan
after filing the pan with hot
water. If the. pots and pans are
treated in this way immedi-
ately after using and left to
stand until it is time to wash
them the work of cleaning them
will be found half done
To make cocoa for 100 per-
sons, eight quarts of water,
eight quarts of milk, one pound
and a half box of cocoa. two
pounds of sugar and a table
spoonful of salt are required.

Gay. fa1S must De used very careful
il. Usually cottage cheese may be
used, but the bulk of the diet should
be composed of some form of milk or
buttermilk and fresh fruits and veg
etables.
l have been reading for some time
your articles on foods and diets, and
so am taking the liberty Of writing
you, asking if you can recommend
any diet for one who is considerably
underweight. I am feet inches
tall and weigh only 80 pounds; 1 sleep
we'll and seemingly eat enough, but my
food does not seem to do me any good
that is, does not make me fat. Am not
sick and have never had any serious
sickness, other than attacks as A child
Of chills and fever (malaria), and all
that botherS me now is sour taste in
my mouth after eating or drinking
anything. Milks seem to cause bill
iousness.-J. 3.
In regard to your question about
putting on weight I advise first of all
to look after your nervous energy. 1t
may be that you are not relaxing
enough, that you are using flesh in
this way. I am sorry that milk does
not agree, but suggest that YOU trv II
with a little milk sugar added or try
heavy cream instead. Strange as it
may seem, cream can often be digest
ed when milk is refused,
Fruit juices are very good and a
little milk sugar added increases their
value.
One of the best helps in such a diet
Is raw egg beaten up, either in
orange juice or, later, when YOUR
digestion is better, in milk.
Here is simple diet which ought
to bring q good result:
For breakfast a dish of prunes or
stewed raisins, serving of cereal.
either faxed or puffed; an egg, two
slices of buttered toast and three
quarters of cup Of cream on the
cereal, cup of black coffee with a
tablespoonful of sugar.
At 1890 a cup of cocoa or a raw
egg with fruit juice. For luncheon
cup of cream vegetable soup, fruit,
salad, two slices Of bread and butter
and one-hah cup of chocolate bread
pudding. At tea time a raw egg in
orange juice.
For dinner about four ounces of
broiled steak or roast beef, a cup OF
creamed potatoes, q serving Of beets
tor squash or other hearty vegetables

and a dessert of ice cream or custard
with two nut cookies.
/ It is only fair to tell you, however,
that the aboye diet is only to be used
when your digestion is improved. I
note that you have an acid taste in
your mouth and it may be that you
will have to diet this for a time.
For this type of indigestion you
should first of all take care of the
bowels, being very careful to have
at least one movement every day. For
time omit meat and use only cream
of vegetable soups, the cereals and the
portions of vegetables. The fruits
should be cantaloupe, dates, sweet
apples, grapes and bananas, while the
beverages may be cocoa or buttermilk
with cream.
After you are no longer troubled
with the sour taste then you may try
the diet outlined at the beginning of
this letter.

Winifred Stuart Gibbs, 81 West Thirty
ninth street, New York City.
Please advise me regarding diet in
colitiS with nervous exhauStion.-R.
s. II.
Usually colitis is caused by an in
fection in the colon. This proba bly,
comes from undigested food and
great care should be taken in plan
ming the diet.
The first thing to do is to give the
overworked intestines a different kind
of material to work on and the Sec
ond step is to keep the bowels en-
tirely open by means of laxative diet.
One of the modern ways of treating
this trouble is to introduce into the
colon u culture of the bland fermcnts.
Before you do anything about this
ask your physician whether the ba- =
ciIlus acidophilus may be used in this
manner.
The theory back of this treatment
is that these bacilli because of their
very healthful action in the body
cause the disappearance of the bac-
terra which are making the irritation.
Whether you use this culture local
ly in the colon or not you should eat
foods that tend to increase the
growth OF these friendly organisms.
In the normal human body there Is
quite a supply Of them.
Now for the diet. II milk increases
the trouble change to buttermilk,
matted milk or milk porridge made
with oatmeal or graham flour.
Vegetable purees are very valuable.
These are made by cooking the veg
etables very carefully, MASKING them,
straining and combining with equal
quantities of milk which has been
thickened with a little flour. Potatoes
and spinach are two of the most val
liable vegetables to be used in this
way.
With these foods as your staples,
add others. gradually watching care
fully to see the result of each addi-
tion. Specially prepared buttermilk
may be taken as freely as possible,
