Answers to Food Questions

of soda fountains and dairy
lunches even a business man may
procure this diet.
Such a diet should be accompanied
by carefully planned portions of
soda.
This diet is for those who are not
able to take a full diet with rest in
bed. After the two weeks are up
well cooked cereals, farina, cream of
wheat and rice, gruels, cream soups
and soft toast are in order
Later one of the standard diets may
be adopted, and the principle of these
is that of administering small quanti-
ties of non-irritating foods such as
those indicated at frequent intervals.
These fuller diets bring the patient
gradually from milk, bouillon, barley
and rice water and eggs to such addi-
tions as broiied lamb chop and mashed
potato. # there is a distaste for food
evident after a few days of this form
of feeding, try at least "a hours OF

There is a fascination about filet to
women who crochet. The regularity
of the meshes is satisfying. The stitch
lends itself admirably to various de-
signs. The work is suited to in
Vulnerable purposes. And, best of all,
the novice finds tilet crochet easy TO
make and that it works up rapidly.
stitches in some designs.
Since the work is so generally popu-
lar, there is always demand for new
patterns Today the fflet lace has been
especially designed for readers of this
department. The attractive little trees
standing SO prim and straight are
reminiscent of Winter evergreens.
They look so CHEEKY In their dress Of
green when all other foliage in cold
climates has gone, leaving the trees
bare and bleak. But these miniature
trees also remind US that Spring is on
the way, when the stark trees out
doors will begin TO bud and blossom
and put on their yerdant dresses. So
whatever the season. these trees are
decoratively delightful.
The design is splendidly adapted to
use on towel ends. When the towels
are on the racks, the trees will stand
up in quaint simplicity. 1t is impor-
tant to have the pattern run so that
the trees, in their wee tubs, will al
ways appear to stand perpendicularly
For instance, If the lace is used for
edging on curtains, turn the design
when working the meshes so that the
trees will stand upright one above an
other, as if on the side of mountain
or steep declivity. This is is very
easy matter, but If any OF you have
difficulty in adapting the design, write
me and l Will send q diagram of the
trees. as described. Please remember
to inclose a self-addressed and stamped
envelope with a request.
White would be the color TO use for
towel ends The firmly twisted cot
tons are better than the loose ones.
The former will stand laundering bet
ter. Medium coarse thread will work
up quickly and prove satisfactory.
For curtains the softer cottons may
be preferred, and fine ones, too. The
lace should be as much like Irish
crochet as possible.
For table runners, to be used dur
ing meal time. fine white cotton would
make the appropriate lace. If the
runner is to be used as a between
meal cover for the table, natural COL
ored linen would be excellent, or ecru.
If the fashion for colored laces is fol-
lowed, the runner may be OF gayer
tones, with the lace to match or in
artistic contrast For instance, the
runner could be of tawny brown with
the lace in soft green. Then the color
of the lace would carry out natures
Coloring.
Table napery and towels trimmed
with this tree design would be charm
ing for Summer homes, cottages and
bungalows. There Is a touch of the

HOW 1T STARTED
A Shower of Wealth.
BY JEAN NEWTON.

A shower of wealth" and kindred
expressions like "showering with
gifts" are frequently used in every
day speech The metaphor is of very
old usage, barking back for its origin
to the tales of Greek mythology. The
story in which We find literal
shower of wealth and in which the
modern expression had its inspiration
is that of the love Of Danae and
Jupiter.
Danae's father. Acrisius, who was
the King of Argos. learned from an
oracle that he would be slain by
