Save small remnants of fat and
try out from time TO time. This is
done by cutting in small pieces or
grinding in a meat chopper. Melt in

Now as TO testing the temperature
of fat for frying.
An old-fashioued way and one that
is still used by teachers of cookery, is
to drop a cube of bread from the soft
part of the loaf in the smoking fat !:
count forty slowly and if the bread
is then a golden brown color the fat
is ready TO fry cooked mixtures, such
as croQuettes. The same test Is used
for uncooked mixtures, except that
one should count sixty. that is, al
low a full minute for browning the
bread.
If care is taken to re-clarify the
fat frequently the same lot may be
used over and over for various foods.
In frying batters and doughs, pot1-
toes and fiShballs. however, it is bet
ter 10 use fresh fet. Fish meat and
croquetteS may be done in fat that
has already been used.
Foods thta do not contain eggs
should be dipped in in crumbs or egg

There is modification Of this

some for Normal Body.

Even the inexperienced housekeep-
er usually knows that there are two
methods Of frying, the one, which is
properly called "sautcing," being car
ried on with a small quantity of fat
in an omelet pan. the other form,
that is frying proper, being the pro
cess Of dropping foods into deep fat.
Although there ere certain conditions
where fried food must be avoided be
cause of the temporary or permanent
incapacity Of the fat digesting pOr-
ton of the individual system, yet for
normal persons. fried food, properly
prepared, is wholesome and at
tractive addition to the dietary, es-
pecially during the winter months. .
To dispose of the simpler method

In fact, the sense of well being that

Perhaps the first point to remem-
bar is to make a list of foods that ale

are that if we go at the diet problem

YEAST CONTAINS ii
PER CENT OF BODY
BUILDING SUBSTA NCE
"Wad Yeasts" in Some
Foods Supply Part of
Body's Needs.

Yeast is really a tiny plant, SO
small as to be only visible by help
of the microscope. These tiny organ
isms reproduce very rapidly. numer-
Gus buds breaking away from the
parent plant and forming new col
Onies.
Although we are apt to think of
yeast chiefly in connection with the
rising of bread it is interesting to
know that the little plants are pre-
sent in foodstuffs, particularly the
sugary. ones, in fermenting jellies and
other foods Of like nature. These are
called wild yeasts" and may be called
the poor relations of the cultivated
yeast that gives us such valuable aid
i'll raising our bread and, under cell
tain conditions, in supplying a food
need of the body.
Before we leave the "wild yeasts"
it is only fair to say that while for
the most part they must be kept out
of food, it is one Of their number
that helps to produce wine and cider.
This yeast when present on grape
and apple skins causes fermentation
of the fruit sugars and the delicious
and wine are the result.
But to return to our cultivated
yeast.
The compressed yeast which is most
familiar should have an even texture,
and should be possessed of a peculiar
and individual moistness without a
suggestion of sliminess.
The color is a creamy white and the
odor, according to Sherman, should be
suggestive of apples.
II there is a darkening of the color
or a streakiness these are signs that
decomposition is beginning and the
yeast should be discarded immediate
~. A cheesy flavor is another indica-
ton that decomposition has set in.

The 1924-1925 model chorus girl has

to extreme height or the reverse. There
was time when the manager engaged
girls under the classificAtions Of

nowadays. Good looks are essential, so
the manager says, and the ability to
sing and dance. A number of the girls

well known portrait painter and Judge
of feminine beauty, at Mr. Harris re-
quest. The dozen or more chosen by
Miss McMeim were from more than so
