FOOD AND HEALTH
BY WINIFRED STUART GIBBS.
Food Specialist.

A clever writer is running a series
of talks giving a fact a day about food
These facts must be skillfully woven
together into a serviceable fabric of
knowledge.
The type of facts likely to be most
helpful will vary with the individual
problem. Every one should make a
collection of fundamental facts, with.
out a knowledge of which satisfactory
diet could hardly be built. | am not
hammering on the facts themselves
just now, but rather / am working
out method for gathering such facts.
In these days of dashing from one
responsibility to another it is a help
to work out ways of acquiring our
necessary knowledge with a minimum
of time and effort. On the principle
that it is sometimes a good way to
study literature and history to start
with some one character or period
ard then read in relation to these,
why might it not be just as workable
to lay fast hold of one food fact and
develop rather further study around
this fact?
Suppose, for example, you are afraid
that Susie has ricketts,. First you
make it your business to consult some
one who knows how to advise YOU
about her diet. Then you make up
your mind to see that Johnny does
not have ricketts,. You will learn how
to feed both Susie and Johnny in
such a way that you need not fear
ricketts, in the future.
This means that you will in the
process have acquired a knowledge
as to how to feed Susie and Johnny,
ooth Tor everyday, practical purposes
and for purposes of preventing dis
ease. In other words, your facts
about ricketts,, il they are studied
carefully and related skillfully, NAV
serve as the starting point for the
acquisition of a serviceable and all
around knowledge of food and diet in
general.
Naturally, these first facts will vary
with different individuals. In house
holds where there Is no fear of ricketts,.
or perhaps no fear of any special dis.
ease, mothers will wish to inform
themselves fully, so as to make 1t
practically certain that the children s
health will be conserved.
The initial facts for such circum-
stances will be related largely to diet
standards for children They will
know that if the youngsters weights
are within 10 per cent, up or down. of
the norman as set forth for their ages.
they need not be troubled. They will
learn what it means to have the chill
dren free to gain. They will garner
such facts as will make it as nearly
certain as possible that these very
youngsters will reach adult years with
bodies so we'll nourished that thew will
be supremacy well fitted to meet the
problems that life is sure to bring.

It is we'll to visualize the season
before beginning to plan menus. For
example, think over the various
fruits, vegetables and meats that are
in season and if desired make list of
each group. The desirability of pre-
pairing food calendars has been en-
phasized. This will be very simple but
of practical help.
A picnic lunch has been planned for
Labor day, since many will be motor
ing. In planning this lunch let the
holiday season pick somewhat choice
food. While the main viands are nour-
ishing there has been one concession
to the palate, namely, that of dill
pickles. Eaten in conjunction with
lunch during an all-day
outing moderate supply of pickles
will probably not harm healthy indi-
viduals. When putting up such a
lunch it is we'll to have at least two
hot-and-cold bottles. one for cold
beverages and one for hot. The con-
somme served next day after a club

Two Modes Run Parallel


have not one mode, but two modes
running along in parallel lines with
apparently no tendency to converg-
ence.
Even parallel lines, mathematicians
now tel us. do eventually meet some
where off in space and maybe these
two parallel fashions will meet-but
for the present straight apparently
scant, skirts seem as straight and APP
parently scant az ever and bouffant
or period skirts seem just as bouffant.
You see some fashion observers
thought the robe de style or period
frock, with its wide hips and full
skirts, would before long have de-
cided effect on the general mode, that
skirts generally would become f1ared
or hoped or otherwise enlarged. But
here we are at the beginning of an
other season with a large number of
new frocks and coats just as straight
line as ever And here also is the
period frock to be seen at almost every
evening asemblage of we'll dressed
women.
The bodices of the new bouffant
skirts are quite generally closely
nodded with a defined waist line just
shade below what we used to con-
slider normal. Sometimes the outward
line of the fullness of the skirt goes
out rather abruptly at the hips--some-
times radiates outward as far as the
hem in long creScendo.
French women are just as fond of
dainty, lacey nightgowns as we are,
but they often wear bed Jackets be-
sides to keep them cozy and warm
when they sleep on chilly nights. You
have no idea what a comfort one of
these little garments really is and it
is just the thing to slip over your
shoulders when you sit up in bed read
ing before you go to sleep. Send me

tom would be my ideal Prince
Charming" writes Angela. ''if only
felt that he respected me, but I'm sure
he doesn't"
Angela's reason for thinking that
her Thomas isn't properly respectful
are: (a) He insists on petting, and he
only known her about four or five
days; OBJ he takes her on parties
where the drinking is very heavy and
serious; (c) he introduces her to all the
town rakes and FOUNDERS. And she
figures that il he had her up on the
pedestal where she belongs by virtue
of her purity he'd be great deal more
careful.
Well. yes and no. Angela-yes and
no. Give the boy friend a chance.
Let's find out a few things more about
him before we condemn him alto
gether.
Tom is apparently fresh from col
lege; very fresh. He's a good-looking
young Brighter, wears nice clothes,
dances like a streak, has any number
of conquests to his credit.
He doesn't specialize in breaking
hearts, but he Is pretty well used to
f1irtations. Nothing wrong about him
Just the average male flirt.
And he has met the modern. popu.
lar girl very often. He has had few
drinks with her and probably kissed
her before the first evening was over.
He has come to the conclusion that
experience has he had to prove the
opposite?
Perhaps he's read somewhere that
there are maidens who neither drink
nor pet or run around with fellows of
questionable reputation, but he is apt
to believe that sort of story is the
appleSauCe.
He hasn't known Angela very long.
and he hasn't had time to figure out
| that she's different. He found her
when he came home from college-a
pretty popular girl. who danced we'll
and had a good time.
| He found her in the company OF
! plenty of the modern kind he was used
! to. Half Angela's friends go in for
petting and drinking on large scale.
| What was there to make him real.
| ize that he had stumbled on one of the
| kind he had read about?
It takes time to make discovery
| like that. and perhaps he is Getting
wise to himself right now.
| There's no need for Angela to get
so het up about the respect due her.
! Half of the thing is her own fault.
The other half is the fault of Tom s
| environment these last few years.
| If Angela will run around with girls
who drink and pet, she must expect
to be classed with them, and she'll get
exactly the treatment meted out to
them till the truth is found out.
She hasn't anything to worry about
| in Toms attitude, unless it persists
| after he has come to understand her
! better. If he continues to include her
in the wrong kind of party, after she
! has let it be known clearly that she is
not interested, then he's not worth
bothering about.
l don't think he will, though.
| think he'll do rightabout face when he
understands Angelas viewpoint bet
| ter. Wait a while, Angela. before you
condemn him as an unrespectful, un.

One fine morning in 1913 "a little
black lady in a black silk gown aged
81, awoke to find herself famous. AS
matter of fact, she didn't actually
awake in the black silk gown, but
Mrs. Gaskell did find herself suddenly
famous. and she always appeared to
her friends and acquaintance dressed
very neatly in A not oyerfashionable
gown of black silk. The II years that
followed were years frightened by the
friendship of such folk as Charles
Dickens, John Ruskin, Florence Night
ingale, Charlottes Bronte. Harriet
Beecher Stowe-years varied by So
journs in France. Italy and Germany,
where literary folk of distinction were
as eager to do her honor as they were
at home.
Quite different were these years
from the first 81 years of Mrs. Gas
kell's life. At % she had married a
poor clergyman in Manchester, Eng
land. With an ever-increasing family
seven children in all-the strictest
economy was necessary in the Gaskell
family, but despite her close attention
to her family and domestic duties,
Mrs. Gaskell somehow found time to
visit and relieve the misery of many
of the poor Manchester folk among
whom she lived.
Mrs. Gaskell might have gone on
and have forgotten had it not been for
the death at 10 months of one of her
children. AS a means of taking her
thoughts from her own sorrow, Mrs.
Gaskelrs clergyman husband sug-
gested that she try to write. This she
did. but for year or so without much
success. A tale called Mary Berton''
she sent to London publisher, who
kept the manuscript for a year with.
out even an acknowledgment. Then
came a letter from the publishers of
fering Mrs. Gaskell $500 for full
rights. And then. to Mrs. Gaskell's
dismay. the book was read eagerly
everywhere, and almost overnight she
became famous.
Two years later followed Gran.
ford" book that has kept Mrs. Gas
kell's memory bright to the present
day. One of the last acts of Mrs
Gaskelfs life before her sudden death
was the purchase Of an attractive
country house out of her ample earn
ings as a surprise gift to her husband
to whom she had been happily married
for 33 years.
1t was when the great Polish
actress, Nine. Modjeska, was 38 that
| she first made her appearance before
American audiences. She looked ex
| tremely young, but her 16-year-olC
| son had a way of appearing just
| when it might have been an advan
| tage to the actress to impress the
public with her youthfulness.
Apparently, Modjeska herself haG
no desire to hide the fact of her 81
years. but her manager suggested Il
| her that she pass her son Ralph of
as her brother. But Ralph was too
proud of his pretty mother to be will
! ing to disown her. He told a new
| acquaintance that she was really hi:
| mother.
Nonsense. said he. "She doesn'
| look more than 26.''
| THAT is So" answered the boy
proudly. but, then, 1 am just II
| years younger than my mother"
