Spinach.

| think good musical chorus num-
Der for our world revue would be, II
Fat spinach! l eat Spinach" done
with great verve by the fat, and the
lean and the 'in between" The saxo-
phones could moan and the pianos
tinkle, and changing the words of
Irving Berlin's jazz hit of some time
back, the words would be: Everybody
eat--Everybody eat-Spinach"'
Spinach is in everybody's diet list.
The young, the old, those who want to
reduce; those who have high blood
pressure; those who are anemic, those
who want to add pounds-everybody
should eat spinach.
AS one writer lately put It, spinach
has almost become the national flower.
For years IL was referred to as 1.-The
broom of the stomach" Over 200
years ago a sea captain found that
spinach was good for scurvy. Since
the presence of mineral salts in food
is now known to be important. and
vitamires have been discovered, we
know why this Is true.
In the tables of chemical analyses,
our old friend, raw spinach, received
three plus marks under each of the
vitamine headings, "a" "B, &C"
This mark means an excellent source
of the vitamine. Cooked, his rating Is
three pluses under "A" and "B." Can
ned, the listing reads two pluses under
"a" Dried, his grade is three pluses
for Vitamine "A" two pluses for ''B. ;"
His iron content rating is very. very
high, and he also gets good grade in
calcium and phosphorus.
Two laboratory workers. Blunt and
Otis, discovered that most dietitians
counted the iron in cooked food 'as
being the same as the analysed
amount in raw food. This is decidedly
not the case. In most ways of cooking
vegetables very great deal of the
necessary mineral element is wasted.
These men found that 43 per cent Of
the valuable iron in spinach was lost
by boiling in the usual way.
Spinach is one vegetable that can be
cooked without water. A tablespoon
of butter can be put in large frying
pan and melted and the spinach can be
gradually added. The heat will cause
it to furnish it's own moisture. Or it
can be Stea med. 1t can be boiled by
starting it with very little water in the
pot, the heat bringing out the water
from the spinach, and by the time II
is tender there will be no water to be
drained off. II should not be served
wet and Shiny looking, like a green
fungus-enough to kill the appetite of
the most ardent apostle. Cold spinach
can be nodded into appetizing little
balls and used as salad. 1t can be
turned into a nourishing and appeal
ing cream soup. One food expert sug-
gests mincing a few raw leaves and

The Daily Manicure.

The amount of time necessary each
day to keep the nails looking perfectly
nanicured need not be more than two
minutes. You must, of course. do your
nails thoroughly once a week, taking
about half an hour for their beautify-
inG. If YOU do that, your daily treat
ment is as follows:
When YOU wash your hands at bed
time rub little bit of ordinary cold
cream round the edge of each nail and
push the cuticle back with an orange
wood stick. If you make a habit of
this. no matter how tired you are at
night. you will never have dry, ugly
cuticle, rough and ragged, and you
will have smoother. healthier, younger
finger nails. You will probably do
away with RICHNESS as well. The
manicure during the day then consists
of giving the nails a fresh edge by 60

emery board. of pushing the. cuticle
back again with the blunt end of an

Use only q true complexion soap

MODERN beauty culture starts
wi now at the wash basin. Lead
ing skin specialists urge the use Of
a certain type of soap to cleanse the
pores and free the skin of blenish-
inviting matter. Youth is thus pre-
served, the skin texture kept soft,
supple and naturally lovely.
But note particularly: By Ger
tain type of soap" a trsle complexion
soob how is meant. Some soaps are
excellent for one purpose or another,
yet perilous to the skin.
For that reason, Palmolive is so
widely urged. 1t is a unique soap,
made by experts in beauty solely for
one purpose; to protect the COM
plexion. A soap made to be used
freely and lavishly on the skin. so
years of soap study stand behind it.
Before Palmolive came, women were
told, "use no soap on your faces"
Soaps then were judged too harsh.
Remember that point when tempted
to "try" an ordinary soap. A good
complexion is too priceless for ex-
pertinent. Launder, cleanse with
any soap you wish. But when
beauty is at stake, take care. Use
