 Good general health rules and food principles are essential. They every home. But some leeway dividual needs and preferences. Nature usually is clever enough to give warning signals when wrong personal food habits are persisted in, and such habits, however reasonably right they may be for ones neighbors, may then be considered as bad for the individual.
 Where these differences vary greatly from the accepted stand ard of a well-balanced, nutritious meal, 1t Is wise always to> seek the advice of a physician, who can very soon tell whether the individuals g taste Is merely capricious or over indulgent, or whether there is a real physical cause for his aver sion to or craving for certain foods.

- AT THE CHILDRENS TABLE - THERE ARE MANY CAUSES
 OF UNDERNOURISHMENT
-By MARY HOPE NORRIS Founder-Mothers' Radio Round Table

and abundant, had no thought of undernourishment.
 Indeed, malnutrition finds many a home among both grown-ups and children who are victims of their palates, consuming luxury foods at the wrong time and de-
 lfberately destroying their appe- tites for the humber articles
 These people invariably become undernourished as a result of their overindulgence.
 It has been well established that
 the so-called every day foods still
 occupy their number one position
 in nutritive value. Whole wheat bread, milk, vegetables,~ fruits, meat and fish are therefore still the mainstays. Fancy foods, while undoubtedly valuable in their prop CT place, cannot safely be substi- tuted for the old reliables. We'll balanced meals which include these standbys offer the best solu- tion to the food problem, both from the viewpoints of health and the pocketbook.
 So check up upon the amount of candy and ice cream cones your child is eating in between meals these days. Watch his plate care fully; see that he drinks his full share of milk, and that he eats fruits regularly, or drinks often of fruit juice.
 Here is another peach recipe which has come to me since I gave you that group of recipes featur- ing peaches several weeks ago: Baked Fresh Peaches Blanch, peel and cut in half
 large ripe peaches. Remove pits and fill cavities with orange mar
 malade or some other preserve that is handy. Bake and serve on
 rounds of toasted plain cake. Top
 with sweetened whipped cream favored with almond extract; or for the children, serve with cus- tard sauce favored with almond.

PLEASING THE MAN
A Good Way to Use
 Cold Meat
BY CHLOE JAMESON

If you've one of those particular men to please, and he doesn't like coll meat that is left over after the
 Sunday roast, then your cue is to
 brush up on interesting ways of preparing cold cuts, or of turning l them into hot dishes, so to speak. | The old plan of relocating cold
 roast meat in the original gravy
 is not much of a disguise to any one. But this recipe for grilled
 slices with a crisp top roast is something to remember:
 Chilled Beef and Tongue Slice cold roast beef in quarter inch slices, and the rarer the meat the better this recipe will be. Be- tween each two slices of beef lay
 one of smoked or boiled tongue,
 season well with little pepper and
 salt and add a few bits of butter.
 Spread over the top slice of meat a souce made with 1 cup tomato sauce seasoned with a tablespoon of sharp horseradish. Crush dozen
 salt soda crackers and mix with table spoons of melted butter. Spread neatly over the tops of the sauce-covered meat slices. Brown III a uOl oven, SdrHiSu WieH palS ley and serve at once.
 Bacon Meat Buns
 This is a good way to use left
 over chicken; the bacon strips
 wrapped around the buns give them a delicious new flavor. Crush z large soda crackers and over
 them pour F cup of hot milk; beat until smooth, then add 1 F | cups cooked chopped chicken, salt
 and papper and a pinch of poultry
 seasoning. Shape into small buns l and set in the refrigerator until chilled. Twist strip of bacon
 around each bun and fasten it with a toothpick. Place in a pan
 or baking dish and bake in a hot oven until the bacon is crisp. You
 can cook these very nicely in a
 top-stove oven if you let it get hot | enough.

the finicky ones, try also serving the lighter forms of cheeses such us cottage or cream cheese.
 It is always possible to keep on hand little boiled salad dressing enriched with butter for those who do not like olive oil. Many times one member of the family never has a chance to eat his salad be- cause cook repeatedly forgets to omit oil dressing from his portion. This person needs his quota of un- cooked green food just as regularly as the others do.
 Cooking courtesy extends to such small things as these, it seems to me, and lives are made happier and more healthful for their ob- servance.
 If you are seeking a new dessert that will please everyone and make a real health contribution to the meal, suggest this one:
 Stuffed CantalOupe
 Remove seeds from a cantaloupe and chill. Dice oranges. halve F pound white grapes and remove seeds, or use seedless grapes, add 1 cup diced fresh pineapple, sweet en to taste and add little orange juice. Set in the refrigerator to become very cold. Use as stuffing for the chilled cantaloupe; gar nish with large maraschino cher rieS.

who belong to friend of mine. She was a devoted and most gem erous mother whose table was al- ways weighted down with rich, tempting, well-cooked food. And her children had vocarious appe- tites, it seemed to me. Yet one day both. girls came home with stricken faces and the report that the health examination at school had disclosed they were not getting enough to eat! %
 Thetr mother was frantic, and q little bit angry, but sensible enough to visit the examiner and investi- gate Little Rose was not receiving her proper share of milk, nor eat ing sufficient green vegetables and fruits, was the finding-Adele was deficient in certain other elements.
 Of course the answer was that these children had individual ideas about their food; they both ate heartily of what they liked, in. stead of what each needed. The mother, knowing that all the food served at her table was of the best,

into manageable bits merely f0Es the sake of gathering them up on the fork. The large chips are eaten first, in the fingers; smaller piecea taken with the fork.
 The same is true of straws ana waffle potatoes. If small, they are eaten with the fork. French fried potatoes invariably are eaten with the fork. They are soft enough to be cut into pieces, if too large to handle. One doesn't spear a long strip, however, and dispose of 1t in several bites. Only when French fried potatoes are too hard and crisp to be handled should they be taken in the fingers.

Chips and French Fried Potatoes
BY CHLOE JAMESON

Whether or not it is correct to eat Saratoga chips, potato straws and waffle potatoes in the fingers is question that is often asked And many people, we notice take the same liberties with French fried potatoes.
 The general rule for eating all such foods is to use the fork wherever possible. Saratoga chips are often too large and unweldy to be eaten otherwise than in the fingers. One does not break them

BE READY FOR pICNICs

It is good idea to have shelf devoted to picnic supplies, and to see that items are always in readi- ness. Keep there a roll of waxed paper for wrapping sandwiches; several ice cream cartons with tops for carrying salads, fruit cock tails, custards; stack of paper plates and paper napkins, also q paper tablecloth. Foods on the shelf might include sandwich spread, a can of devilled ham paste or tube of some piquant sand wich butter; Ear of olives, jar of cheese, one of selected frankfurt CTS; box of assorted wafers; jar of branded or pickled fruit. With bread, butter and few other sup plies from the refrigerator, this provision for the unexpected pie nic will prevent all confusion and last-minute rush.

 The man truding up the narrow stairway started and smiled as he caught the gay words. The smile rased the lines of fatigue and fear and showed him unexpectedly young. He paused, strengthening his shoulders and tiIting his chin before the door whence came heartening sizzles and smells and the banner of song. He listened and heard:
 I'll get by As long as have you;
 Though there be rain,
 And darkness, too,
 I'll not complain,
 I'll see 1t through :"
 As the last note died he flung open the door.
 Hi there. sweetness!" he called "H'are you?'
 The girl in the pink apron turn ed away from the three burner. "Why, Pete! Sweet-Pete! You're early!" And was Peter to blame if he missed the signs of recent tears in the, blue eyes he bent to kiss?
 "No--no luck, dear?" She hated to ask. but she had to know. It mattered so terrbly-more even than he knew-now. She shudder- ed. remembering the mornings visit to a doctor, the questions, the kindly advice, the return to the one shabby little room. She had thrown herself on the daybed and wept.
 
 Actually the first time she'd cried since Peter was laid off, months ago. They had tried to be so gay, so brave; they'd even joked about it. After all, they had health and youth and each other; Mary had been fond of quoting: God gave them youth; God gave them love; and even God could give no more."
 We'll. he could apparently. What on earth would they do now? Trapped, her mind had scurried about in circles. The folks? No hope there; they needed help themselves, poor dears. Charity? Not if they could help it! Oh. fix ing hamburger six different ways week and wearing fresh house dresses and playing double solitaire and somehow living on the .occa- sional few dollars that Peter earn ed at odd jobs or the folks-bless 'em!--could spare. was all very well-was even fun-for two. But for three!
 Starting out of her reverie, she repeated her question.
 ''No, nothing yet" he admitted. "But-but I'm going to try Me- Neil's this afternoon, and-maybe." His look implored her.
 Why, surely, Of course you'll get something! Sweet-Pete."

 How often they'd imagined this moment, yet how gloriously new 1t was! Nothing to make such fuss about, just finding a job, but gee, what a great feeling to work again and come home at night to a wife fellow could take care of right. Awed, Peter held a private Thanks giving service
 Later they sat as they loved to. cross-legged on the daybed, arms around each other, like two chil- dren in the dusk. "Oh, honey, - "No, you go first, Peter" Mary laughed, suddenly shy. Well, this morning I got so damn blue-the lowest yet. I'd been turned down on what I thought was sure thing, and got to worrying about you. ''So I decided to have an acci-s dent; fight it out with a truck this afternoon-and lose" He stopped at her little cry.

No matter what happens, we'll stick it out together" They were silent for while. arms entwined. When Mary turned her great news ready. his curly head had slipped down on her shoulder. and she could see his lashes lying along his cheek in the moonlight.
 Smiling. she gathered him up and rested her cheek on his head. She was free at last of the need to hide from Peter every desire to cry very worry and resentment and economy.
 But was she? She glanced down at him, asleep in her arm--her first baby-and knew she must never tell him that he had come close to death because her song had almost failed--knew that courage is the first requisite of life and faith the prime essential of love.
 We'll, she could be strong now: not tensely and bitterly, but ser- enely strong. It didn't matter so terribly if hard times came again. or pain of grief or even death. For these were all but parts of life. and she, creator og life. could weave them all into her song. Copyright, 1884, The Chicago Daily

ATLANTA, Ga, April 30.-A bright
picture OF improving economic condi-
tionS in the Southeast was painted in
business statistics published for the
sixth district yesterday by the Fed
eral Reserve Bank Of Atlanta.
March figures, the bank reported,
SHOW substantial increases over Feb
ruary in most lines of trade and in
dustrial activity and all of these series
compare favorably with March of last
year, which included the period Of
the banking holiday"
Total sales by reporting department
stores in the sixth district, the bank
said in its monthly review, were 35 2
per cent greater in March this year
than in February and represented an
increase of 69.8 per cent over those of
March last year.

from February to March and was Sc 6
per cent greater than a year ago. Life
insurance sales increased 172 per cent
in March over February and were 30 5

The engineer Commissioner, for ex-
ample. is now a member of the public
Utilities Commission. The plan under
which the District government has
been operated for many years Is to
assign each department to the i'm

made by the three Commissioners In

branches are supervised by the En-

his bill would not preclude appoint

on the board, but he does not feel the
President should be restricted as in
the present law requiring the assign

While this bill would be an i'm

DROP IN DOLLAR

Carnegie Endowment Draws
on Reserves to Carry
on Work.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The dollar depreciation abroad
forced the Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace to draw upon
emergency reserves to carry on its
work during last year.
DR.. James Brown Scott, secretary
said in the organizations annual le-
port the income from Andrew Car
negie'S original gift to the Cause OF
peace was barely adequate" to MAIN
tain the enlarged organization and
that $4,000 was allotted from an
emergency appropriation to equalize
the depreciation of the dollar in
Europe.
Expenditures for the year totaled
S648 562.
Noting that the endowment was
becoming an unofficial instrument of
international policy, taking up here
and there the ends and threads Of
international problems and questions
which the governments find it diff
cult to handle" Scott reported:
The reSurgence in many countries
Of ideas of exaggerated nationalism
is making it more and more difficult
for governments to deal officially with
their international problems, and
the opportunities are correspondingly
increasing for quiet, unobtrusive but
effective use by the endowment of its
Offices of good will and friendly ad-
vice. This development of the en-
dowment's role has been as surpris-
ing as it was unexpected"
