Serve With Johnny.
Cakes for Good
Combination
By Edith NJ. Barber

y
Here's hoping that your family
likes kidneys. There isn't anything
better than good kidney stew and
beef kidney, while not quite so
delicate in flavor as the, kidney of
the veal, is less expensive. Lamb
kidneys are sometimes even q bet
ter bargain.
1t is often surprising to find that
there are good many people who
have not tasted this delicacy and
just think that they don't like it.
Perhaps if you are trying it for
the first time on the family you
had better not call 1t kidney stew.
At q recent week end at the Pat
more Farm in Connecticut we
served old-fashioned johhnycakes,
baked on griddle, with the kidney
stew and discovered that this was
grand combination. The johnny
cakes were made Of underground
cornmeal, cooked to a mush and
favored with salt and plenty of
butter. This is dropped by the
tablespoonful and allowed to brown
on both sides. The center is soft,
of course. and cakes of this sort
60 well with any type of gravy.
. To 60 back to kidneys. remove the
membrane and tubes before soak
ing in salted water. The time Of
cooking will depend largely upon
how thin the kidney is sliced. All
the red tinge should disappear dur
ing the cooking. The time period
also depends upon the natural ten
derness Of the meat.
In contrast to kidneys, almost
every one considers sweetbreads a
great delicacy. They are a luxury,
as they are always comparatively
expensive. although they are usual
ly more moderate in price at this
season when calves are plentiful.
They are usually creamed or broiled
after parboiling.

MUSHROOMS.

Is exercise important In avoiding
fatigue2 Few people actually real
ize the physiological reasons for its
value. Let me tell you something
about Just why it will prevent ia
tigue or lessen 1t.
We do not eat in order to fill our
stomachs but to feed all Of our It's
sues. Remember that almost so per
cent of your tissues are muscular.
One authority says, IF food does
not get into your muscles you are
like an automobile with a full tank
of gas but a clogged gas line. Ex-
ercise is more important in its re-
lation to the uses of digested food
than 1t is to digestion itself"
Absorption of food into the muscle
cell cannot take place while the
muscle is resting. Therefore, every
cell pulsates continually, thus con-
trolling the feeding of the tissue.
An exercised muscle is better nour-
ished than one which has been de-
MED exercise.

the elimination of these poisons.

aid to circulation. =
