DR.. Pepper has won the unshakable
confidence of the public because it has

been, a healthful compound of fruit

pure cane sugar.
DR.. Pepper was originated BY a

ANIMAL TESTS
FIRST PROVE
FOOD VALUE
By WINIFRED GIBBS

One Of the most interesting points
in recent development of our nutrition
knowledge is the careful work done in
animal experimentation.
Nothing is left to chance theory or
even scientific chemistry. 1t is not
until different foods have been tested
by laboratory animals that the experts
are ready to advise their use for hu-
man beings. Now the actual labora-
tory work itself is for the scientists
and for them only. 1t may be pos
sible for teachers to use the human
interests" SO to speak, of the growth
of the white rats for the purpose OF
interesting the children in eating the
right food.
LEARNS A LESSON.
In fact, a case is on record where
thin little Bob has had an informal
introduction to a thin little white rat.
Bob has watched the white rat grow
round and sleek because OF proper
feeding. During the days when the
rat was skinny, as Bob himself
phrased il. it was easy for the young
ster himself to see what poor show
ing the rat made beside his compan-
ions.
OF course, Bob went home with
ideas tucked away in his head about
which he said little or nothing. 1t
is understood, however, that Bob then
and there determined to get just as
fat as Tommy Timkins.
HEALTHY RIVALRY.
The idea presented must be in the
hands of a skillful educator. There
may be a chance to use some OF the
machinery and scenery with which the
laboratory is set for the purpose OF
driving home moro definitely lesson:
about feeding.
This health rivalry is another part
/ of the foundation on which diet les
sons may be built. With the picture
Of the skinny rat" to rouse the inter
est; with their own embarrassment al
not being normal in weight in com
pany with their playmates, the chill
dren may easily take more kindly tC
food lessons than would otherwise BE-
the case.

'NU GRAPE COMPANY WAS
FORMED FOUR YEARS AGO

In 1921 a group of prominent At
lanta men organized a company to
manufacture and bottle a new car
donated drink having very distinc
tive grape flavor. They called the
drink, NuGrape, and the company the
NuGrape Company Of America.
There was an immediate demand for
NuGrape from the people of Atlanta.
1t satisfied their natural craving for
a carbonated grape favored drink os
no other drink had ever done. With
in a few months NuGrape was on sale
everywhere. Soft drink dealers were
astonished at the way the public called
for this new beverage.
Bottlers of carbonated drinks in
towns near Atlanta quickly learned OF
the popularity of NuGrape and asked
for the bottling privileges. By De
cember, 1922, the demand for these
privileges from bottlers in Georgia

DESPITE VALUE
FOOD: WEAK #
M0NOT0N0US

Certainty, montony kills interest
and eventually weakness detracts from
actual values. This is a truth in prac-
tically all activities of life, but espe-
cially in the operations connected with
food and feeding.
An uninteresting meal may be made
up of the most valuabl. foods in the
world and yet may fail to fulfill all of
its mission. that of completely nour-
ishing the body.
NEW IDEAS.
One help to making this part of a
household engineering interesting is to
make it our business to draw our in
terests along these lines. One who is
fond of reading. for example, and feels
injured at having to spend time and
thought on the drudgery connected
with food may easily connect her in
terest in literature with her daily task.
Don't you remember the coy feeling
from reading Toby Weeks "Meal OF
Tripe and Onions" and doesn't the
thought of that meal give you new
ideas about serving tripe? And isn't
the thought of Thackcray's "Bouil-
ieabusse" an inspiration to make the
humble soup OF every day real appe-
tizer?
HISTORICAL FOODS.
Suppose history is your special in
terest? You will be astonished to find
how easy it is to dig up interesting
historical bits in which various foods
figure prominently. Such tales will
also help amazingly in freshening your
mind and thus indirectly are likely TO
be active TO the advantage of the fam
lily menu.

MI GRAPE IS SAFE
FOR SMALL CHILDREN

NuGrspe is so pure and wholesome
that children may safely drink it with
out and danger Of i'll effects. And
besides, its mild carbonation stimu-
lates digestion.
AS a refreshment to serve unexpcct-
cd guests, NuGrape is an ideal beyer-
age. Women like It's delicate flavor
and its dark purple color gives a
dainty touch to your luncheon table.

and nearby states was so great that
the NuGrape Company of America
sold the bottling plant in Atlanta and
devoted its entire attention to tho

Everywhere NuGrape was bottled
it seemed to capture the popular taste.
Within three years from its beginning,
the distribution of NuGrape was eS'
tended throughout the United States
And today more than 500 bottlers now
are engaged in supplying a national
demand. Today NuGrape is the larg,

Electric Appliance Offers
Business Delightfully."-
Quick Meal.
BY STELLA DELAND

For business man or woman who
enjoys really good wholesome meals
the dinner, for which / am giving
recipes and directions for prepa ra tion
upon the electric grill, is ideal. Pre-
pared in larger quantities the same
dinner likewise may be grill-cooked for
a family of four and thus give the
housewife change from her daily
stint Mt the range.
Broiled Chopped Meat Balls
French Fried Onions and Potatoes
Salad
Dessert and Coffee.
IL this dinner is being prepared for
a single person, half a pound, or even
less, of round steak will be ample.
This l know sounds like a very small
order to give a butcher and some pco-
pie living alone hesitate to buy so
little meat. Butchers, however, as a
general thing are glad to get this sort
of patronage.
HOW TO USE GRILL.
But back to the dinner. Have the
butcher put the steak through the
meat chopper once or twice according
to your preference and when you are
ready to start cooking your dinner
work into the chopped, meat half of
a small onion, chopped finely, tea
spoonful of salt and a pinch of pep
per. Then form it into two balls and
dredge with flour. After this place
the meat in the shallow pan of your
grill and broil under the heating ele-
ment for fifteen or eighteen minutes,
or oil csI
The trick in cooking this is to have
the grill sufficiently hot so the meat
will brown quickly.
Before you start this broiling, how
ever. have your onions and potatoes al
ready sliced. the onions in about quar-
ter-inch thick slices and the potatoes
in long half-inch square strips. Melt
a half pound of lard or frying COM
pound in the deep pan of the grill
and when it is bubbling hot put in the
slices of onion.
COOK IN FEW MINUTES
When these are Drowned, which
should not take more than five or
seven minutes, remove and let them
drain on clean wrapping paper. Then
clear the fat with half a potato. and
put in the potatoes. Eight or ten
minutes should be ample time to fry
these. They should not be placed
into the fat, however, until it is hot
enough to brown a crust Of bread in
one minute.
By keeping the onions warm beneath
the broiling meat the entire dinner can
be cooked and ready TO serve in about
twenty minutes.

PERSON NEEDS TWO
GRAMS SALT DAILY

The average person needs about two
grams of table salt daily. When we
realize that the average individual
consumes from Is to 16 grams, it is
time to do some thinking along these
lines. There are certain bodily con-
ditions where too much salt is def
nitely harmful. Look to your salt al
lowance then and remember that two
grams is the normal allowance and
that this represents not more than
one-fifteenth of an ounce.

RAW VEGETABLES ARE
IMPORTANT ON MENU

While we in no sense advocate
strictly raw diet, it is n good plan to
vary the meals occasionally by serving
combinations Of raw vegetables. Car
rots, spinach. turnip, beets are among
the vegetables that may be washed,
grated very finely. minced and COM
bined to form sandwich Filings. sal
ads or other attractive dishes. These
raw vegetables carry larger share
of necessary elements than cooked
ones.
