FOOD AND HEALTH
BY wINIFRED STUART GIBBS.
Food Specialist.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are
coming. and these autumn days sug'
gest wintry treats. such as toasted
marshmallows, nuts and similar dain-
ties. Because of their popularity
there IL usually considerable interest
felt In discussions relating to the food
value of nuts. It 10 such q comfort
to know that something which we like
is good for US.
This reflection must be Qualif1ed,
however. Some one hears or reads
that nuts are very nourfshinS.
with his bit of good news. Some one
else promptly decides to include nuts
frequently In the dietary Of the whole
family, and then the trouble begins
Unless nuts are chosen and served
with due regard to certain principles
they may lose their good, II they 90
not work actual harm.
First, as to the food value OF nuts.
Bodybuilding material contained In
most nuts has been found to be equal
to that of meat. This statement ap.
plies especially to English walnuts.
peanuts, pecans. chestnuts and
almonds. So let US think Of these
nuts as something which contributes
this necessary food element. not as a
mere luxury to be added to a meal
which is already perhaps oversupplied
with food value.
Now as to the digestion Of nuts.
The flrst thing to be careful about is
thorough mastication. Nuts should be
masticated until they form a smooth
paste in the mouth, and never swal,
lowed while there are still hard and
unsoftened bits remaining.
For children. who may not always
be careful about this matter Of mas
tication. nut buffers and nut meals
frequently solve the difficulty.

WHITE PLAINS, n. y, November
2. 1776.-Not since this war began
have it's oficers met so dificult
problem as that which now confronts
them regarding Fort Washington.
Shall this stronghold be abandoned or
shall It be defended at whatever cost?
BY holding It. some say. the United
States can make Gen. Howe's quar-
ters on New York Island very uncom.
Portable for him. But how can we
hold the fort. say others. with strong
British and Hessian encampments on
three sides and E->.son River on the
fourth side. wb<.'e Brita mia rules the
wave?
Congress wants the Army to defend
the fort TO the last. Gen. Washington,
though reluctant to give 1t up. counts
carefully the great difficulties. and has
told Gen. Greene that he does not
think II will be prudent to hazard the
men and stores there. But as you are
on the spot" he says. II leave II to
YOU to give such orders as to evacuat-
ing Mount Washington as YOU judge
best"
Gen. Greene takes this to mean
that the final decision rests with him

Helena loved her apartment
The furniture had been bought and
moved into il before their honey
moon, but of course IT took time to
get things arranged and to buy dra-
peries and so forth. so that for several
weeks after her return she was very
busy getting settled.
They had three rooms and
kitchenette and bath.
The living room was unusually
large and Helena had bought at auc-
tion O. refectOry table where they ate
their meals. Aside from this one piece
the furniture was quite conventional.
A large davenport before the fireplace
hanked with a long table on which
magazines were strewn. A Chippen-
dale desk. some good rugs. several
comfortable chairs. mahogany low
boy. which held the bed and table
linen, and a small grand piano.
OF course there were other smaller
things. A wood basket in jade green
to match the curtains which were Of
heavy velour over gold gauze. NJ
merous lamps for which electrical at
tachments had to be made. The
apartment had built-in book shelves
so that no bookcase had to be pro-
vided, and Helena was glad Of this.
The book shelves and the refectory
table gave the living room a charm
ing. unconventional look that she
loved
The bedrooms were fairly large. par
ticularly the one she shared with
John. She had chosen canary yellow
for the curtains in their room and
mauve for the smaller room. which
could be used for an occasional guest.
John had given her carte blanche on
her generously on everything she had
chosen.
In small ways he was always more
than generous with Helena. 1t was
only in the larger things that he was
lacking

The cheaper grades Of this kind are

The best kind Of safety pins to buy
are those which have a metal guard
around the coil-spring to pervent its
catching in the material. and they
should also have a tongu>- in the cen

small. fancy pins used to fasten
babies dresses. A small size brass
pin used for attaching dress shields
in garments is called a Shield pin -
Some of them have a slight bend or
twist in the back to facilitate pinning
them on the shield. All steel safety
pins are imported.

You folks are going to get along
fine with the baby, aren't you?' and
I said, Sure, we are" and she said,
We'll, wish ! could be sure.
Why do women contradict them
selves that way?
All day long I had been trying to
think Of things to ask her about TAX
ing care of the boy. but l couldn't
think Of q single one. And then. no
sooner had / kissed her good.by and
watched the train pull out than
thought Of q million.
When got home l found Joan
in the same fix. besides feeling bit
weepy because she was lonely for her
mother already.
said, Il wish your mother had
stayed q while longer" and she said.
well, why didn't you try to make her
stay, instead of almost pushing her
out OF the house the way you did?'
and I said, II like that" and she
said, We'll, ! didn't like it,"
Just then the baby woke up for his
10 o'clock feeding and he yelled so
hard that bath Of us had to rush to
get his bottle ready. So the argu-
ment was q draw.
