This Ann Delafield thing is teach
ing me some mighty fine tricks
In the cooking line, and I've found
a new recipe for French dressing
that Is not only absolutely nonfat-
tening, but delicious as well. First
off, instead Of the well known
olive oil, 60 out and get a bottle
Of good mineral oil. Then use it
when making your French dress
ing using it in your favorite recipe,
instead Of olive oil. It's not only
delicious. but people on diets can
use it freely. Don't forget to leave
out the salt If you are bent on los
ing weight! An extra dab Of lemon
juice win make you forget all
about salt anyhow.
