OF course years take their toll.
We cannot live vibrantly and feel
strongly and think and work and
worry and be human without hav-

and no doubt act weird, without
any marks of living on our faces,
our thoughts or our emotions.
Do not 60 haywire on a faddish

The results will be we'll worth the

and lunch and then drink a choc-

or disgrace-our tables.
The Creole cooks perhaps un-
derstand the nuance of sauces
better than most people in this
country. In their most used group
of Sauces de Poudings" we find
a number that are simple to make
but have that certain something
that is the stamp of the real chef.
For instance, with baked apple
dumplings, boiled dumplings or
apple pudding they serve an april
cot sauce made by putting 4 ounces
of apricot jam or marmalade into
small saucepan, adding l table
spoon of butter and 2 gills of water,
and stirring briskly until the mix
ture comes to a boil. Then they
let it cook for 2 minutes more be-
before serving. So easy! But the
combination of favors is perfectly
chosen.
With any berry pudding, they
suggest "silvery sauce" Beat l
cup of sugar and l tablespoon Of
butter to a cream. Set 2 cups of
milk to boil, and just as it begins
to simmer add the sugar and the
butter. Let it simmer gently for a
few minutes, then remove from the
fire, and add the whites of 2 eggs,
stiff1y beaten. Add l tablespoon
of lemon essence, and stir until
Thoroughly mixed. This may be
served either hot or cold. as you
lperfer.
Velvet Sauce goes well with
practically any pudding, Beat l u
cups of powdered sugar to a cream
with "a cup of butter. Blend l
tablespoon of cornstarch with
| little water to make paste. Boil
l2 cups of water and add the corn
starch paste, stirring constantly
until it becomes transparent. then
add the butter and sugar. blend
ing well-by this time the pan
should be kept over boiling water
and not over direct heat. Add the
juice OF a lemon. or an orange or
some vanilla, according to your
taste. Serve hot with any pudding.

AVOCADO SEED.

From Mrs. L. S. ~, WashingtonJ
For Mrs. L. A. W., Washington
To start an avocado seed, insert
three toothpicks into the lower OF
wide part of the seed so that they
support the seed. Put in a me-
dunn sized bowl and keep the bot
tom of the seed in water. When
the stem is several inches high
after roots have started, plant in
pot.
You can also root this seed
without the toothpick prop if you
have a tall narrow glass at the
top of which the seed can rest. o.
put the three toothpicks straight
out from the sides of the seed
and let them rest the seed in the
opening of a small round bowl.
