THE veins and arteries in your
body through which the heart is
constantly pumping blood are round.
When you stretch, you flatten those
arteries and veins so that the blood
cannot pass through them so easily.
In order to overcome this the heart
sets to work to pump faster and
faster to force the blood through
the fiattened passages. So at the
end of a good hard stretch this fast
er pumping of blood puts new pep
into your veins and makes you con-
scious of feeling of well-being.

helped to scare the submarine

THREE MEALS A DAY

AS days grow colder, appetites
grow larger. But the hours in the
kitchen needn't be overly long, il
you do your cooking in the oven
where you don't need to watch it
every minute.
That doesn't mean just meats
but vegetables too. For instance,
what has more appetite appeal and
less work involved than a steamed
hot baked potato popped open and
showing heart of golden butter
Ge7, it's hard to beat!
The important thing in baking
potatoes is to choose dry, meaiy
white potatoes which will remain
white after they're cooked.
Baking potatoes is perhaps the
most healthful method of prepar-
ing them because those elusive
minerals and vitamins which are
found right next to the skin are
sealed in. There's no trick to
baking, but here are the rules to
follow for greatest satisfaction:
Scrub them. Set the oven con-
troll at 4500 moderately hoD and
put the potatoes in while the oven
is just warming up, if you want
she skins soft. If you prefer them
crisp, then heat the oven to 450'
F. before putting the potatoes in.

this old standby Idaho Baked
potatoes:
Idaho Suzettes
medium-size Idaho potatoes
IL cup hot milk
tablespoons melted fat
tablespoons buttered crumbs
| tablespoons garted cheese
Salt and pepper.

tatoes and scrub them and bake at
450o F. When done remove piece

tato TO make it boat-shaped. TO

wise Scoop out the inside, being
careful not to break the shell.
Mash very thoroughly. 1t is ad-
visable to put them through the

and beat we'll. Pile the mixture
lightly back in the shells. Refill
the shell almost to the top, break
an egg into each opening, season
with pepper and salt and sprinkle
with buttered crumbs that have
been mixed with grated cheese and
bake in a slow oven (250 350' F)
long enough to set hte egg and

as far as baking and MASKING the
"middles" is concerned, just as you
do for Idaho Suzettes. Just before
returning the mashed potatoes to
their shells, whip in chopped Idaho
Sweet Spanish onions which have
been sauteed until tender in lit
tie butter-two tablespoons for
each potato. Then refill the shells
and top with two or three small
