watch the color as well as the
flavor combinations. Delicately
colored and textured foods should
be licately favored. Highly col.

If one wants to prepare an APP

much labor, 1t may be done by
using simpler foods and serving
them beautifully garnished in at.

The recipes that follow were Sc

Francesca Petrarch, leading fig

Dante. His greatness belongs to a
history of literature rather than to a
story of human progress.
He lived before the invention of
printing, being born in 1904 and dy.

Averages Untrust.uorthy

Recent Insurance experience has
shown that average tables are often
misleading. The average weights are
by no means the best weights. At
ages under thirty the best conditions
apparently exist among those whose
weights are from five to ten pounds
above the average. After age thirty
the most favorable conditions are
found among those whose weights are
below the average. The amount be.
low average increases with advancing
age and at age fifty persons seem to
be- at their best when their weights
are as much as twenty or thirty
pounds below the average. Insur-
ance experience shows that under.
weight is definitely all advantage so
far as long life Is concerned.
