What TodayMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE.

Libra.
Today's planetary aspects are ad-
verse. and indicate loss, lack of
achievement and general dissatisfac-
ton with existing conditions. Pofse
and equilibrium must be maintained
at all costs, and 1T is essential to eX-
ercise self-restraint over both speech
and action in order hat you may not
say things that you will regret or do
things for which you will be sorry.
In business only routine work should
receive your attention, and anything
that savors either Of speculation or
risk should be studiously avoided.
A child born today will, although
delicate. be "A ray of sunshine, as by
it's sweetness Of disposition 1t will
attract and please. Proper care and
outdoor air will enable this child to
develop into d vigorously healthy
maturity. although infantile ailments
may cause misgivings and fear. 1t
should be guided along the lines that
it will undoubtedly show. so far as
character is concerned. Its DISPOSE
ton will require little or no correc-
ton, as, while always bright and
cheerful, it will reveal d considera-
ton for others which will conquer
prejudice and disarm any unkindly
feeling. Its mentality will be good
and clean-cut.
If today is your birthday you are
too prone to jump to hasty conclu-
sionS and form snap judgments which
do others an injustice and bring dis
credit on yourself. 1t avails you very
little that, when you realize your mis-
take, you are ready and willing to
acknowledge il and make all amends
possible. In most instances you have
learned that it is generally the first
impression that counts, and any effort
made to eradicate an erroneous snap
judgment is belated and nearly al
ways futile.
You overlook the fact that there
are two sides to everything-a prose-
cution and defenSe-and that no
verdict should be given until the evil
dence is all in In your judgment of
persons and their motives you are,
quite often, wrong-a man is gener-
ally slower to judge by appearance
than Il woman and the latter is fire.
quently proud of what she is pleased
to call her intuition
Woman's intuition is sometimes
right, and then chiefly by accident
and not by design. 1t is more fire.

The Leeunes.

il you were English you would
probably call these beans, peas, len
ills, etc, pulses, but our general
American name for them is legumes,
although as a matter of fact we
usually speak of them simply as dried
vegetables.
In composition these nourishing
vegetables are very much alike the
cereals-that is, they are really store
houses of nourishment of the young
plant itself.
No doubt we have all one time or
another heard the legumes called
heterogeneous foods. At one time the
fact that the legumes possess so
much nitrogen was supposed to make
them a substitute for meat and other
body building food. We know now,
however that although from to 5
per cent of the composition of dried
peas, beans and lentils is in the
form of bodybuilding material, this
material is not always suitable for
digestion; for example, in the case
of young children or of invalids with
delicate stomachs. This is another
illustration of the fact that theory
and actually are sometimes quite
different.
The body building substance in the
legumes is called legumin, and it is
from this that we have named the
plants as a group. This legumin is
sometimes spoken of as vegetable
casein, because it closely resembles
similar element in milk. In fact.
certain kind of cheese may actually be
prepared from beans.
The legumeS have a plentiful sup
ply of starch, but very little fat
This is the botanical explanation of
our familiar dish of pork and beans
For those who dislike pork the fat
is supplied by means of sauces con-
tanning butter or oil.
Among the legumes that are less
we'll known we find the lentils. This
is a historic plant that dates back
to early Biblical days. In fact
Essaus Mess of Pottage" was sup
posed to have been made of lentils.
The lentil has more bodybuilding
material than the pea or the bean,
and if for any reason there is neces-
sity to make up a dietary that is very
economical, lentilS will be found in
valuable.
1t is interesting to remember that
all of the legumes may be served in
the form of a vegetable roast or loaf.
Such loaf is prepared by cooking
the vegetable, either peas. beans or
lentils, until very soft and thick
The mass is then rubbed through a
coarse strainer. Sufficient cracker
crumbs or bread crumbs are added to
make a firm loaf. The mixture is
held together by the addition Of a
batter of beaten egg, and the whole
Is formed into a sausage shaped roll
This roll is then placed in a baking
pan and a sauce of strained tomato
or brown gravy is poured around it.
The vegetable roast is then baked
until thoroughly heated through and
served very hot.

Nutrition NUGGETS.

Remember thac the curollns OF
milk Is Quite uiirerent from coagu-
latioR which takes place when 1t mas
been boiled. Curdlinge comes from
Tactic acid which forms in the milk
This Tactic acid is always present In
the milk. but is apt to be Increase
during the hot weather. Curdlins
will, If carried to an extreme, render
the milk unpalatable and not good
for food.
The skin" which appears on the
ton of milk which has been boiled
is distasteful to mary, but in reality
it contains some Of the most impor-
tant of nutritive properties OF the
milk. Do not discard this skin,
therefore. In the making Of pud-
dings, such as rice. it can usually
be stirred through the mass so as
to give the pudding the benent Of
its food value without destroying
the attractiveness.
Certain experiments have shown
that the flesh Of fat fishes is more
indigestible than that from the
other varieties. The same expert
smoking actually increases the rate
of digestion Of the fish.
Among the advantages OF milk in
the diet We find. first, that 1t tends
to decrease intestinal putrefaction
second. that although 1t is rich in
body building material. milk does
not contain elements which increase
uric acid.
Remember that the starch con-
tanned in your daily foodstuffs Is
changed to sugar when it reaches
the stomach. When you shower
your porridge with sugar you are
giving your digestive system a dou-
BILE ration OF this element.
Pulled bread" is a good variation
Of toast for those who must have
crisp breads. 1t is made by taking
out the soft part of fresh loaf of
bread and baking the pieces very
thoroughly. In this bread the starch
has been rendered very digestible.
When we remember that the HUI
man body contains almost seven
pounds of mineral matter and that
fve- sixths is in the bones, is 1t any
wonder that the nutrition experts
keep on telling US to eat plenty Of
bone-making material Such an
element as tho lime in your break
fast orange, for example, although
invisible, plays a very important
part in building the body.

worry over your slimness. Just
think how many girls and women
are praying to be like you. AS you
grow older your flesh will not "all
go to muscle" as our grandmothers
used to express 1t. Meantime, your
breakfast should consist of fruit,
cereal with heavy cream Gf your di-
gestion is good and your exercise
moderately Vigorously, milk to drink
and buttered toast or rolls.
For lunch try a hot roast beef
sandwich or a dish of macaroni and
cheese or a cream soup made with
equal parts strained vegetable pulp
and cream sauce, cup of cocoa
more bread and butter (if possible
whole wheat). and a dessert of Gus
tard or rice or junket pudding.
Dinner may begin with baked fish
or roast beef or lamb or two broiled
chops. a baked potato Oarge). a
cooked green vegetable, such as but
tered cabbage or creamed caulifower;
green salad with plenty of oil and
lemon instead of vinegar, and dessert

but am able to overcome this by laxa-

and often gain, but then go down
again, and am handicapped by my bad
skin and worn APPEARANCES. MI
1t seems to me that in so far as I
am able to judge from a distance you
are proceeding along the right lines
l advise even greater care about the
constipation-a fruit and vegetable
diet and perhaps buttermilk or an
artificially fermented milk prepara-
ton. OF course, the best thing would
be to get rid of all anxiety. but
realize we cannot always do this.
However, if it is possible to secure
pleasant social intercourse. this will
no doubt help, as part of your trouble
seems to be mental. Cheerful
thoughts are great tonics. and hope
you are to have your share!
