Solution of Last Weeks Puzzle.
New Britain herald., 1926-09-01

This dinner menu is planned without meat. The meal is well balanced and nourishing and ideal for hot weather. The souffle is suitable for quite young children since the beans are put through a sieve which of course removes the thick covering.
 Lima Bean Souffle
 One cup cooked sieved lima beans, 3 eggs, tablespoons flour, 2 tablespoons butter, tablespoons bacon drippings, 1-2 teaspoon salt, IA teaspoon pepper, l cup milk, few drops onion juice.
 Melt butter and bacon fat and stir in flour. Season with salt, pep per and onion juice and slowly add milk, stirring constantly. Bring to the boiling point and remove from the fire. Add yolks of eggs and blend thoroughly. Add beans and fold in the whites of the eggs beaten until stiff. Turn into but tered baking dish and bake in a pan of hot water in a moderate oven for 25 minutes or until the souffle Is well puffed and firm to the touch. Serve at once.

Embroidered

Blue is omnipresent in the fall mode. In navy and the lnghter flag blue 1t rivals black for general day year; in the evening in such shades as powder, marine and pencil blue. it is easily the dominant color.
 The most wearable of all the blues Is navy and I rejoice to say this shade is no longer regarded solely as spring color. It is featured by several well known designers for fall street ensembles, as we'll as for the one-piece morning frock of silk or serge. It is usually enlivened with contrasting trimming of some kind, or bit of decorative stitch ing
 In the case of the frock sketched today, a charming one-piece model of navy fiaille, contrasting color Is introduced in the form of a double collar and cuffs of rose faille crepe, richly embroidered in green, blue and gold.
 Additional noteworthy features are the button closing of the front the narrow belt, and the graceful box pleats on the front of the very short skirt.
 This demure blue crepe day frock fastens in front with round collar and cuffs and also of this material.

 "'Yes,' he exclaimed. And I ex- plicitly told her that if she would stop long enough to think logically, in the midst of her tirade, that it was she not I who planned the tip from New York here. You see I did mt want to leave New York, for always had the feeling that you were still in the city and of course being innocent of all evil intent. was much hurt to be accused

pillows, my invariable refuge when l am buffeted and bewildered by situations which are beyond my control. I felt that I had cut but sorry figure in my colloquy with Lillian. Without realizing what my statement meant I virtually had accused her of possessing less high standards of conduct than my own, and l was conscious that she con- sidered me ridiculously prudish in my attitude toward Philip Nerit- zen's courtesias.
 But notwithstanding my very great respect for her judgment, felt that in one respect my instinct was better than her knowledge of Philip Neritzen. She had called him "harmlessly romantic" intimated that he never would be trouble some if I accepted such attentions as the roses and loan of the car which he had offered ostensibly for Mary Harrison's welcome home, but which everyone appeared de- ltIIliuGu lo bcltNS were llcdHl IOI me. But I knew that there is no one so ignorant of mans real nature as the woman to whom he always has given loyal friendship. who has been his staunch comrade, but who never has attracted him romantically. That there never had been any hint of romance between Lillian and Philip VeritZen. l was sure, and was correspondingly Cer- tain that she was not the best judge of what his behavior might be If he were to become deeply in- terested in a woman.
 I caught myself up at this point of my reflections with a hot flush and a savage scoring of my vanity for the preposterous lengths to which it had led me. Why should l fancy that Philip Eeritzen would take more than a passing interest in me? I was indeed making the mountain from the molehill, as Lillian had predicted, and with the resolve to heed her counsel and let events take care of themselves as they developed, I hurried ! through my dressing, and joined Lillian in the living-room.

 Lallian's query had all the effect of a giant firecracker exploding at my feet. Almost at my door, stopped, startled into Nmorseful remem brance that had taken no thought of Dicky whatever in my plan for meeting his niece.

 I moved swiftly toward the tele- phone. stopped short in dismay as remembered that Philip Nerit- zen's car and chauffeur were to take Lillian and me to the station.
 But what can-!' I faltered, and Lillian took me by the shoulders and gave me a little push toward the door.
 'I'll do the telephoning," she said. You'd be sure to mess things up. It isn't necessary for him to know how we're coming back un- Ill after we meet Mary.

 "Oh, nothing but some flowers. D replied Reddy carelessly.
 "Flowers" exclaimed Graywing, looking all about everywhere but in the right direction. T don't see any flowers"
 "Oh, they're right down here in the water" said Reddy. pointing to the little pool between the rocks.
 Graywing looked down. Still I don't see any flowers said he. "Ahe you joking me, Neighbor Fox?"
 Certainly not" replied Reddy. 'T hope you don't think l would be so impolite as to do such 2 thing as that. Don't you see those little Towering plants growing right on theb ottom?"
 Graywing's eyes twinkled. They twinkled and twinkled. "Oh," said he, those are what you mean. Reach in and touch one."
 Reddy looked at Graywing sus- piciously. He hadn't forgotten how Graywing had laughed at him for getting stung by Jellyfish. No. thank you" said he, T learned my lesson with that Jellyfish."
 But that was different" said GrayWing. You don't expect a flower to sting you. do you?"
 No" replied Reddy, but l didn't expect a Jellyfish to sting me either. Those flowers are all right to look at, but I guess I won't touch them"
 Just then a Crab came swim ming along, and touched one of the flowers. Reddy happened to be looking at it at the time. In place of what appeared like a beautiful flower, there was just an unattrac- tive, shapeless mbass. Graywing had happened to be looking at the same one, and he caught the ex- pression on Reddy's face. Now, what do you think of your flower, Neighbor Fox?' said he.
 "I don't think 1t is a flower at all," declared Reddy, but it cer- tainly did look like one"
 Tt isn't a flower" said Gray wing, although il is called Sea Anemone. II really is an animal. just 1he same as the Jellyfsh is an animal. See, it is beginning 10 open up again now"

Editor Journal of the American
 Medical Association and Of
 Hygeia the Health Magazine
 For many years, the disease. per nicious anemia, has given concern to physicians who have been unable to determine Its cause or to find a cer- tain cure.
 In this condition. the red blood cells which are normally from five to six million in number for each cubic millimeter of blood begin to decrease in amount. Since they are charged with oxygen carrying and with many other important func- tions, their diminuition results in many disturbances in the body and gradually in death.
 The most recent efforts toward benefit of this disease are striking in their simplicity. They seem to point to an origin of the disease as- sociated with a lack of vitamin "A' in the food, which Is either directly responsible or which results in low ering of resistance of the body to in- lection, the latter perhaps being re- sponsible for the diminution in red blood cells.
 Tests Made
 ! In any event, Dr. koessler and his associates have shown that vitamin "A" starvation will produce in ami malls a conditi' closely resembling 1 that of pernicious anemia, and that ! ta,r Nt,oSr 11 amounts of such vitamins produces marked benefit
 1 At the same t.me, Drs. Minot and
 Murphy haver eported that they
 were able to prod'ce general i'm provement in patients with this dis
 ease by feeding diets consisting | largely of cooked liver and lambs i kidneys.
 These substances are known to be
 extremely rich in complete proteins
 and in iron. They also found that a
 good diet must contain an abundance
 of fruits and fresh vegetables, and be
 relatively low in fat.
 The diet suggested by Dr. Koess- Ter and his colleagues also demands
 an ample qua. .ty of food with an
 exceptional richness in vitamin "A" Drink Milk
 This was supplied by giving Q small dose of cod liver oil four times daily. and urging the use of Q quan- tity of good butter with whole wheat bread, whole milk and cream. l It was suggested that at least six 1 glasses of milk and one-half pint of cream should be drunk each day.
 Eggs, tomatoes, spinach, carrots, fresh string beans, dandelion greens, cauliflower, endive, sweet potatoes and hubbard squash are particularly recommended for their vitamin con- | tent. as are also oranges, lemons, grapefruit and raspberries. Among the meats, liver and kidney contain the largest amounts of vita min "A" and "B." whereas sweet breads and brains stand next in vitamin richness. While these stud ies are not conclusive. they are sug- gestive, and the effects of the diets on patients have been extremely beneficial. Indeed, such diets are beneficial for all body growth. Previous investigators of perni- cious anemia have from time to time ben led by temporary improveme of their patients into the belief that they had discovered a certain cure. The present Investigators make no such claims. They do claim, how ever that their investigations have been remarkably suggestive.
