HOW 1T STARTED
BY JEAN NEWTON.
Parker House Roll"

In the name of modern efficiency
and modern building programs one of
Boston's old and famous landmarks
has been demolished. That is the
Parker House. which since it's opening
in 1854 had served BoSton's finest its
SaStronomiCul best.
But IL mere Wrecking crew, while il
might demolsh bricks and mortar,
could not tear down the Parker House
tradition, which will always live in the
Parker House roll. We all know il.
the Parker House roll. Perhaps some
of the more inquiring of us have Won
dered at times on breaking into the
crisp fiakineSS. how it started-both
its particular style of bread product
and the name by which it is known.
When we know the story of the old
Parker House we know all about how
it started For in the kitchen of the
hotel. which was in its glory half a
dozen decades ago. was a German
baker named Ward who one day took
it into his head to give his dough a
little different twist both of ingredients
and of shape. When his product met
with great favor and he was asked for
repeat orders he realized that he had
created an institution. which he named
the Parker House roll.

FOOD AND HEALTH
BY WINIFRED STUART GIBBS.
Food Specialist.

| Probably the most common of diffi,
culties chara cterized by the word acid
are those that have to do with acid In
| digestion in the stomach. In such
i cases. we usually find that any food.
| even that which is slightly acid. MAY
! cause the tongue or gums or kunckles
| TO become sore and this is but one
| of the troublesome symptoms.
While hicarbonate of soda would
,, usually remove the immediate un-
| plea sa ntness. one must not depend too
largely on this agent. which, after
all. is merely A palliative. We must
get back to first principles. and con
slider we'll the influences which may
tend to decrease the secretion of ny
drochloric acid in the stomach.
One of the first pitfalls to avoid Is
the unWiSe use of fats. Fats OF all
kinds have been shown to decrease the
acidity in the gastric juice, but GER
, tain forms are better adapted for the
dietary treatment of this trouble than
others. Fresh butter is probably the
best and should be freely used. Olive
oil is also a good fat upon which to
place dependence. Cream comes next,
but milk should be watched very care
fully. if not discarded altogether.
Although cereals are usually classed
as acid forming foods, it has been
firmly and definitely established that
they stimulate the gastric juice, which
is low in acid, but very high in di-
Eestive power.
Unless there is some very deep
seated complication. simple cases of
hNperacidity may he controlled by the
following plan. First of all. meat
meat extracts. spices and condiments
must be discarded. Secondly. ii is i'm
portant to see that all the food Is
served in Il safe form. For example,
porridGe or mush for cereals, and
purees for vegetables will solve this
part of the problem. This measure
makes it certain that the food will he
chewed very little. and. therefore, it
will enter the stomach in form less
likely to stimulate the already ever
busy gastric glands. Next in our pro
gram comes the provision for a bounti.
full supply of fresh. unsalted butter,
olive oil. certain quantity OF cream
and the omission of milk.
Then. and this is one Of the most
important of all the measures, there
should be at least two bowel move
ments daily. This may be effected by
diet. The foods included in the list
should he bran. celery, spinach. pars-
nips. cabbage. sprouts, turnips, lentils,
barley, oatmeal. pumpkin. peas. beets.
green peas. string beans. lettuce,
onions figs, currants and blackberries.
If diet alone fails at first. u quarter
of an ounce OF brand added to each
meal ami half-ounce of paratfin oil
before and after each meal will usual
ly complete the program SO far AS in
tcStinal cleanliness is concerned.
Finally. tea and coffee. alcohol, cane
sugar and condiments. meat, salt and
,arbOnated waters must be omitted.
Sufferers from this disturba nee some
times complain that vegetables alone
do not stay by. g." adding that this fact
causes over-indulgence in bread or po-
tatoes. If one is careful to include at
least TWO of the delicate vegetables
proha bly, this difficulty will be over
come.

turn out AT all aS Rnsalind had
planned. She had expected to take
Madeline out and patronize her. and
instead of that the tables had been
turned with MadeIines astounding bit
of news. Madeline as the prospective
wife OF wealthy man had taken on
new importance. And To think that
she. Rose, might have been engaged to
Jack instead. The thought made her
squirm.
The two girls went to dinner at a
quiet but exclusive restaurant Their
conversation WAS desultorv. and after
ward Rosalind made an excuse TO get
away by saying that she was tired and
must rest before the performance that
night.
You must get Jack to bring YOU to
the Tivoli some night ! want Won to

Madeline would never come. They
would be out Of place at night club
