The insulation is the material that occupies the space between the out- side woodwork and the inside lining. Its purpose is to prevent heat from coming through from the outside and melting the ice. It must, therefore, be Are You Eating Enough Fruits and Greens?

A little extra money spent to obtain gond]ins\llatlon is, therefore, ted. ‘The best sulators are cork and mineral wool. The most effective is pressed cork board, but it is expen- sive. Mineral wool and granylated cork are nearly as good, and much cheaper. In the cheapest refriger- ators wool felt, charcoal -and’ even shavings are used. They are poor insulators, for they gather moisture, and that almost wholly destroy their insulating qualities. Moreover, the moisture rots the wood and soon de- stroys the refrigerator itself. The outside casings are usually either of est, but costs more. The exterior is largely a matter of taste and depends upon what the purchaser is willing to pay. It has nothing to do with the economy or the sanitary qualities of the refrigerator. The lining may be of zinc, enameled iron, porcelain or heavy opal glass. The zinc and enam- eled iron linings are the cheapest, but are the most difficult to keep clean. The porcelain and glass linings are expensive, but are easy to keep clean and do not retain odors. Whatever you select, make sure that there are no cracks or corners that would be hard to keep clean. The latches on the doors are also to be considered. They should be 50 made that they will not work loose and fail to keep the doors tightly closed. A loosely fastened door let in the warm outside air and rapidly waste the ice. The refrigerator. In which 8o much of the food of the family is kept, should one of the housewife's first considerations in the matter of clean- liness. If there is a pan under the refrigerator, it should be scalded oft- en to prevent the collection of slime. ‘The refrigerator itself should be thor- oughly cleaned with hot water and washing soda once a week. All the shelves and racks should be removed and scalded and all the pipes cleaned. Anything with a strong odor should not be placed in the jcebox. Fish should be wrapped first in cloth and then in several thicknesses of paper. Meat, on the other hand, should not plate, and unless, like ham, it is al ready salted, a little salt should be| sprinkled over it. Nothing hot should be put into the refrigerator at all.{or crepe. Those who wrap their ice to make it jast Jonger should remem- ber that only as ice melts is the re- frigerator cooled. When the ice is kept from melting by covering it with paper or a blanket. the refrig- erator is kept from becoming as cold as it should be. It is economy to keep a refrigerator fuil of ice all the time rather than buying a little at a time and thereby allowing the refrigerator ::lee‘. ‘warm. and quickly melting Care of Leftovers. - A bowsewife uses all sorts of dish- es, such as cups, tumblers, pitchers and thins, as receptacles for the left- overs that are constantly appearing. Many odds and ends have to be saved, like the white of an egg, a little apple sauce, pieces of butter, half a tum- bler of cream. Most of the impro- vised receptacles lack covers, yet it is important to protect their contents from absorbing odors from other food in the refrigerator. For that purpose saucers and plates are insecure make- shifts. Paper covers will do the work. They are light, clean and con- venient, and once the knack is ac. quired are easy to make. Filter paper, such as druggists and chemists use, is the best for the pur- breaking. To make, cut out a square piece twice the size of the top of the tumbler or dish to be covered. Clip off the four corners, then with the left hand hold the octagonal piece in place upon the tumbler. ~ Roll the projecting edgea of the paper inward and upward and press them against the outside of the tumbler or dish. If you have made the cap correctly, you can easily re- move it from any smooth-edged re- ceptable, such as’'a tumbler, and use it again and again. Berries, peaches or apricots should not be kept long in boxes in_the re- frigerator. Pears, melons and. grapes come to no harm by lying on the ice for some hours before they are to be eaten, but they should not be kept in a damp place too long and should be eaten as soon as they are removed from the refrigerator. Celery, salads of all sorts, caulifiower, tomatoes, peas. beans and other succulent veg- etables may be stored for a day or two in the refrigerator and bs much better for it. Potatoes, onions, tur- nips, carrots and other vegetables of this class should be kept dry and cool, but not cold. A box of fresh dry sand is an excellent thing to have in a corner of the storeroom or pantry. 1f apples are carefully packed in the sand they will keep fresh and un- shriveled for a long ttme. If your vegetables become wilted and stale before you have an oppor- tunity to use them, place them'for an ash or of oak.

ALY The days of severely plain white cotton be put away in paper, but open on a|underwear are gone, it seems: vet, there re still many women who prefer fine white cotton, daintily made, to pink silk For nightgowns, the cotton in Dnn"l crepes, barred muslins and heavier plain cambrics are used. For chemises, cor- set covers and camisoles. the list of suit- able materials includes batiste, Berkeley cambric, .cotton crepe, longcloth and nainsook. For petticoats also, Berkeley cambric, longcloth, nainsook and cotton crepe aro suitable. Cotton batiste is a plain weave, thirty- two to forty-five inches wide, 35 cents to a dollar a yard: a very fine, sheer al, appropriate for fine underwear and Mfants’ clothing. Cambric is a plain_weave of varioos usually a yard wide, and should come in suitable weight for nightgowns, from 50 to 75 cents a yard, as prices still go. It used to be half as much. Cotton crepe, from thirty-two inches to a yard wide is a plain weave with a crinkled surface, and does not need to be ironed after washing. It comes in plain, soft colors and is much used for summer underwear, costing about 75 cents a yard. Longoioth and nainsook are plain fine weaves, the latter much the more expensive. Longcloth is thirty-five inches or a vard de, at 25 cents a yard; nainsook is wider, usually forty | inches, and costs twice as much or more, pose.

The business person who feels inactive and run down should try several successive noon lunches on these greens alone (in conjunction with a beverage) to ! prove this fact. Just as our grand- parents turned to sulphur and |mula ses in the spring, the wise man {or woman of today turns to fruits and greens for a period at this season. Fruit salads are equally as beneficial an all-green noon diet, especially ilads containing the citrus fruits | (grapefruit, orange and lemon) or i pincapple and strawberries. Rhubarb also excellent in the early summer nd should be classed with this “tonic” group of edibles. The following luncheon menu for the home table is suitable for this season of the year and will give a new elasticity fo the system: Cheesed Spinach Strawberry Cottage Pudding Coffee Cheesed Spinach.—Cook peck spinach until tender in as little water as possible, drain, and chop finely. Now melt 1 tablespoon butter, add to it 1 tablespoon flour, season with 1 teaspoon salt, then add % cup of milk: heat this mixture to boiling point, then add the spinach to it and 1 cup of American cheese finely chop- ped. Stir till cheese is melted and serve. Strawberry Cottage Pudding.—Make an ordinary one-egg loaf cake, slice it into individual portions to serve while still hot, and over each portion pour the following sauce: Cream 1 heaping tablespoon butter, add 1 cup powdered sugar and the stifflv-beaten white of 1 egg; beat all together until very light, then add 1 cup of mashed strawberries with their juice.
