Most women, whether they enjoy the
task or not, elect to do their own
marketing. They may employ cook,
but prefer to select the table articles.
It is not unusual to see women whose
names grace the society columns shop
ping In the stores and markets. Even
noted statesmen enjoy mulling about
the displays. As the farmer enjoys
eating the food he raises, so does the
average persona find added pleasure
In consuming personally chosen items.
At present there is an abundance OF
fruits and vegetables on the market,
most of which come, Of course, from
distant points, California and Florida
supplying much of the produce. Out
of-season fruits are naturally higher in
Washington.
For example, the honeydew melons
are extremely high at present, costing
from SIPS to 50 apiece, according to
size There are no caSabaS to be had
at any price. Strawberries, which a
few weeks ago were selling for IS cents
a box, may now be obtained for 40 to
so cents box, with downward trend
rs the season advances.
BeetS are ratner nlgn ana are pemg
shipped from California. They are be-
ing sold for 10 to 1914 cents a bunch.
Hothouse-grown produce is always
higher than other in-season commodi-
ties. For example, Boston dollhouse
cucumbers are being sold for 80 to 40
cents apiece and dollhouse asparagus
from IS. cents to 81 bunch.
The cost Of other products have not
changed materially during the past few
weeks and the following may be ac-
cepted as the prevailing prices Among
the fruits are Florida oranges, 40 to
rs cents a dozen; apples. S to 8 cents
each; kumquats, 20 cents a quart;
grapefruit, 10 to Is cents apiece;
strawberries, 40 to so cents box; table
pears, 8 to 10 cents each: cranberries,
Is cents quart: California grapes,
which include malagas and emperors,

Waist lines, as you know, are no

been for some time. Gradually they are

Shirred Eggs.

Butter individual baking dishes or
small saucers. Break one or two eggs
into each, sprinkle lightly with salt and
pepper and dot with two or three small
pieces Of butter. Bake in moderate
over until the whites are set.
Shtrred eggs may be varied In num-
Der OF ways. Two very thin slices of
bacon may be laid across the top of
each egg and baked until crisp: or two
slices Of broiled bacon may be put In
each dish and the egg put on tor of
them. One tablespoon of tomato sauce,
creole sauce or eauted mushrooms may
be put insthe, bottom Of the dish before
the eggs are added. The secret of vel.
cooked shirred eggs lies in cooking
them slowly. and just long enough to
have them firm.

Can you-te me how to make Goldfish

Goldfish cakes that are cooked in deep

Taste the mixture to see that it Is sea-
soned enough and let it cool. When
cold, shape into fiat cakes one-half inch
thick, or into balls, dip in beaten egg
diluted with one tablespoon of cold
water. and then roll in fine dry bread
crumbs. Fry in deep fat that has been
heated until it will brown a piece of

hot. II preferred the cakes may be
cooked in frying pan containing about
one-half inch Of hot fat. Fry on one
side until brown, then turn and fry on
the other side.
The use Of egg In the mixture tends
to hold the cakes together, and rolling
them in egg and breadcrumbs Is a fur.

Is another important factor, for If it Is
not hot enough the mixture will become
grease soaked and fall apart.

Eating Celery.

Make as wide o use Of raw celery
as you can while 1t is In season. Its
crispness makes chewing necessary and
this is good for the teeth; its cellulose
gives 1t value as q roughage food; its
delicate flavor stimulates the appetite;
and its mineral and vitamin content
give 1t real value as food. Serve 1t In

praised or stewed as a vegetable.
