Rhubarb Is in Season.

Here are some seasonable and
rather unusual-save for the first
rhubarb recipes. If you prefer
rhubarb just stewed or baked, then
by all means have it that way, but
4 YOU like variety try it in some of
these other ways:
Peal and cut rhubarb in one.inch
pieces. Put in saucepan. Sprinkle
generously with sugar. and add
enough water to prevent mixture
from sticking Rhubarb contains a
large percentage of water and there
fore very little additional water is
needed. Cook until soft Rhubarb is
sometimes baked in an earthen dish.
If baked slowly for long time, it
has d rich rcd color.
Rhubarb Charlotte.
Stew four or five stalks of rhubarb
with plenty of sugar, very little
water. and the grated rind of half
a lemon: then beat to pulp. Line
a Srea sed pie dish with thin slices
of stale bread. put in one layer Of
the rhubarb. then a very thin layer
of bread, and so on until the dish
is full-tinishing with bread on the
top.
Warm and melt one ounce of but

quantity of sugar: pour this gradu-

seven had not only the best food but
a very enjoyable time besides.
Cousin Clarissa was careful to give
these youngsters morning lunch and

mothers and soon had them so keen

they learned so much about the right
kind Of food to eat.
I'VE should almost call this a school
for diet" said Cousin Clarissa, "but I
don't want to make it sound so unin-
teresting."
After various talks with the mothers
the children had for their breakfast
either baked apple. or scraped apple
sauce. or. strained stewed prune pulp
and a cup of wheat. or rice served
with one-half cup of top milk. Then
they had two slices Of buttered toast

toast fingers, one-half cup of some
strained green vegetable with two
slices of bread and butter and a fruit

joyed a baked potato with two slices
of bread. a small cup of milk to drink
and a dessert, consisting of one-half
cup of junket or tapioca pudding or
plain cereal with a bit of sugar and
top milk.
Taken all in all Cousin Clarissa's

substitute for olives and are served
in the littel hors d d'oeuvres dishes. they
may then be offered to each other by
the guests between courses and eaten
as finger foods like olives At large
and formal dinner the hors .d'oeuvres
are often offered by the waiter and a
spoon or fork may then be placed in
the dish.
Special Points.
When placing the silverware. the
soup spoon should be at the outside.
on the right, and the knife for the
fish course next to it. then the knife
for the main meat course. At the
usual home dinner the salad fork goes
next to the meat fork at the loft of
the dinner plate. The general rule for
placing silverware is that the piece to
be used first is the farthest from the
plate. The diner works from the out
side in, so TO speak. but there is an.
other rule which forbids more silver
ware than enough for three courses
to be placed at the initial setting of
the cover, so that if you should have
soup. fish, the main meat dish, and
perhaps game. YOU may then place the
salad fork at the time the salad course
is served.
Finger bowls should be brought on
after the sweet course, and before the
dessert. The real dessert is fruit, or
fruit and nuts, with or without bon.
bons, candied peel or other sweet
meats. We do not always have this
dessert at the close of our meals. The
coffee has nothing to do with the
finger foods.

known). and angina pectoris are the
three most terrible forms of cardi-
ovascular disease, because of the pros

envisage in every such case.
Angina pectoris. means breast pang

sometimes dubbed neuralgia of the

'.'i1e Dining Room.

Good form says that dining room
equipment and decoration should be
very simple. If there are pictures on
the dining room wall they should be
few. Avoid small pictures in the
dining room. Even when grouped
small pictures are out of place in this
room.
II possible. avoid using the dining
room as a dumping ground for Vari-
Gus articles for which no other place
can be found. In some houses this
room seems to he the sanctuary for
everything, from the pet canary TO
the family sewing machine, covered
discreetly with an Indian rug and
topped with fern in a jardinere. but
for all that bearing an unmistakable
resemblance to the sewing machine.
The fad for showing an array of
silver and cut glass on the top Of
the sideboard and buffet is thing
of the past. The serving table is
often left quite bare, and even the
long linen runners are removed be-
tween meals. The buffet should have
only very little by way of adorn-
ment, the nature of this depending. of
course, on the style of buffet. a pair
of silver candlesticks and a dish of
one attractive buffet. while another
never shows any adornment save an
attractive arrangement of flowers.
Originality in dining room furnish
ing is coming to be more and more
sought after by those who can afford
to build and furnish their homes to
suit their taste. Once. when one could
afford it, one carried out scheme
of pompous formality in the dining

Arteriosclerosis seems to take this

probably that is rather because the

Many cases of so-called "acute in

sion which we should never take Sc
riously. unless the doctor winks when
he says it.
Nitroglycerin is the sovereign emer-
gency remedy for angina. One sub

medicine
The power of Konjola as a cleans.
er and invigorator for such vital
organs as the stomach liver, kidneys
and bowels, is obtained from the
careful selection of twenty-five
juices taken from twenty-five
natural plants, and which are
blended with still other proven
medical ingredients. making one
single liquid preparation that is
taken immediately after meals
which works with the sufferers own
food, thus helping nature itself over
come the ailment in natures own
way. By restoring these vital organs
to healthier action, this Kon-
jola has proven surprisingly
beneficial in many seemingly hope
less cases.
The Konjola Man is at Hooks
drug store, Pennsylvania and Mar
ket Sts., Indianapolis, where he is
