lima beans, tiny green ones, large green ones and large, flat white ones, but they all must be gath cred for immediate use before the milk inside the tender shell like covering sets. AS the beans ripen, the covering grows hard and diff ficult to digest and the creamy center becomes firm and dry No matter how long the beans are cooked, these conditions cannot be altered.
 If lima beans have been allowed to become over-ripe before gather ing, the best way to serve them is to rub them through a colan der after cooking and use them in a puree or souffle. This removes the tough covering but does not restore the delicate flavor of the tender vegetable.
 Lima Beans in Cream
 Beans are lacking in fat so this must be supplied in the seasoning. The most delicious way to serve lima beans is in pure cream. One half cup cream seasoned with salt and pepper and added to two cups cooked beans makes the addition of butter unnecessary. Heat the cream 10 the sCalding point after pouring over beans but do not let boil.
 If cream is not at hand a thin sauce of the consistency of thick

and dexterously whisked them away without touching the perfect thing which lay beneath them.
 How do you like your dinner decorations?"' he asked with par donable complacence in his voice, but for a fascinated second or two had no words.
 A Lavish Display
 How he had managed it, I had no idea-he must have had a cabinet maker as we'll as a florist at work, but sunk into the table was a tiny glass-lined pool of real water, with feathery tendrils and tiny golden blossoms floating on the surface and the smallest goldfish I ever hal seen disporting themselves against the glass sides. And all around it were banked orchids, white golden and brown-flecked, relieved by deli cate green tendrils. He must have quet cloth, for my housewifely ex- perience told me that it must have been cut to fit the unusual decora- tion. And what else he had paid. to engineer this decoration, by far the most beautiful I ever had seen, l had no more idea than I had as to what Dicky's reaction would be when he saw the table. I was afraid that he would consider the fam boyant extravaganza of the thing as a distinct impertinence on my en- ployer's part, and deep in my soul knew that I shared my husbands feeling
 Useless for me also to pretend 70 my own soul that the compliment was for Mary, although I meant to voice that thought whenever l could do so without banality and apparent effort. But MT. Veritzen's whole manner as he stood by the table, with his eyes upon me, pro- claimed that the tribute was mine alone.
 T know you told me that wild roses and lilacs and violets were your favorites," he said, but even if they could be obtained, and the | first two are impossible, all three of them would wage mortal combat | with your color scheme, as you out lined it to me. So l ventured upon | orchids, as lending themselves best | to the device l had in mind. But I | am sorry if they do not please you"
 It was not alone the compulsion l of courtesy which made me ex- claim: Please me. They are the | most exquisite things I ever have seen.' l defy any woman to have such an offering made her, and not feel mean little sense of gratified vanity at the tribute. But it was a which lasted but an instant. Even before MT. Veritzen. smiling now, had time to frame an answer to my exclamation, Purneu appeared in the doorway and hur- ried to me.
 MT Graham he say he must speak to you on the telephone right away"

Death due to diseases of the kidneys are 172 per cent of the nor nal. From lrterial diseases the rate is 165 per cent: cerebral hem orrhage. 157 per cent; cancer, Ill per cent.
 Diabetes deaths are particularly outstanding, the rate among the overweight being 257 per cent of the average.
 It was also found that the death rates become higher when older age groups are considered and IS the excess in weight becomes greater.
 Those who are underweight show a much hwer than average mor- tality rate from the diseases listed - that due to diabetes being but 64 per cent of the average.
 On the other hand, among the underweight the tuberculosis death rate is POP per cent of the normal. Pneumonia also give a higher than average death rate among the un- derweight.
