 ts Within the closing of last De- acember's accounts, the family bud
 Ket observes a period of unusual Importance in family affairs. Janu-
 ary 1892 presents a clean sheet and is ushered in by earnest resolu- lions to make every cent count in value whether it be house rent,
 upkeep, heating and lighting, .clothing and food.
 s- The food portion of the budget fs perhaps more important than All the others because the right Choice of food is so closely allied with the health of the family. The
 amount spent for food depends, of course, on the number in the fam .fiy, the size of the income, and to a large extent on ones knowl9dge of food values and ones ability to buy wisely.
 \ Without a knowledge of food values, the tendency may be to spend money for foods which do not give the best return in health values. Take milk for instance. While milk is not as cheap as 1t was 25 years ago it is safer pro- duct now, the increased cost re- .Hplting from a universal demand tor more sanitary methods of pro- Auction and distribution. Now milk even at the present cost is the cheapest of all foods because 1t contributes so much to the health Of the family--high quality protein, fat of high biologic value, a source of lime unequalled by any other food, as well as the vitamins. all of which are factors in growth and health of young and old. To get the same returns in food value from other foods, several times the amount would have to be spent. : s Those of you who are interested fin budgeting your resources will set great fun making study of how your food money is distri- ,buted. Of this food money-which will take from 25 to 50 per cent [ of your total income, depending on 1. its size-about one quarter should Do spent for milk and cheese. This may have to be raised to even 0 third of the food money when ex- tfeme economy dictates, in order tb provide a basic food to maintain the health of the family.
 1. and vegetables of which about 20 per cent of the food money may , well be spent, as these supplement milk in health. values. Obviously these must be of the lower priced kinds, carrots, cabbage, onions for ' ssegetables, and for fruits, prunes, apples, and oranges whenever the : price permits. When extreme

TALKED HIS WAY
 INTO A NICE CELL

By NEA ScrVACc
 Los Angeles--It's almost as hard to get into jail these days as 1t is to get out, John Franklin, 2S-year- old carpenter, opines.
 Franklin, out of Q job, talked to deputy sheriffs to see if he couldn't be put in jail for vagrancy so he could get food and lodging until business picked up. But the sheriffs couldn't do 1t for lack of sufficient cause.
 The out-of-work carpenter left the station, but returned again the following day to beg again to be jailed. Then, after a talk with the deputies, 1t is said that Frank lin threw an ink well through tho window of the sheriff's office. Then he was arrested and charged with malicious destruction of private property.

Salads Which Are Also Decorative

A very decorative salad is made by stuffing green peppers with pimiento cream cheese; chill, and slice with a sharp, thin-bladed knife. Decorate each slice with a sprinkling of paprika, a slice of stuffed olive, or with strips of green pepper and pimiento; serve with mayonnaise on a bed of let tuce leaves. Or, instead of green peppers, you might use "rose ap- pies" - whole sweet red peppers preserved in glass or tin - for your shells, and stuff them with cream cheese sprinkled with chop ped chives.
 Another attractive novelty in the way of a salad is made by filling scooped out tomatoes with a stiff, highly seasoned aspic--combined if you like with flaked fish, cottage cheese, or anchovy paste - and then quartering the tomatoes. Serve with garnish of hard cooked eggs and watercress. = By Frances Maule in McCall's for February.
