Housewives Are Urged to
Use Product Which Is
Considered as Among
Best of All Foods,

Although physicians, schools OF
domestic science and food bureaus
have of late devoted great deal
of time to impressing on the general
public the food value Of macaron1,
especially for growing children,
many housewives do not yet appre-
ciate the fact that macaroni and
spaghetti are among the finest
health producing and muscle-build-
ing foods on the market. This is
especially true of milk-macaroni and
milk spaghetti, which combine the
nutriment of milk with that of
macaroni.
The advantage in serving these
foods frequently is all the more ap'
parent when you consider that they
cost less than nearly all other foods,
and that many enticing, flavoring
dishes can be made in an unusually
short space Of time. Here are two
recipes that will be sure to please
all the family,
