Faced with such problems, it is not surprising that the “sweets’” course should be more bothersome than the main one. Let me suggest a curious combina- tion to Americans, but one that is held in high favor abroad. This is bananas and cheese alone, or accom | panied by unsweetened cracker: Here we might have bananas with cream and fancy crackers for a des- sert, or crackers and cheese, but not all three. or just bananas and cheese Abroad the people like the zest of | the cheese with the richness of the bananas. | | | Three-in-One Dessert. 1 would suzzest that the crackers be included when such a dessert is pastries, served in America. Then those who liked Fananas could have them, and those who wished could have the erackers and cheese, while all could help themselves to the three if so minded. Tt is a dessert that adds an other variety to most of our dinner or luncheon menus. | Combinations of left-overs supply endless opportunities for desserts that are “‘different In fact, they =eldom have identical flavors, for there is more of one thing at a given time than of another to put together in the making of the dish.

BURGESS Peter isn't one to waste much time worrying over such a matter as not being able to get home to the dea» Old Briar-patch on time. It was | eneugh for him to know that he was safe where he was. It was a good place to take a nap in, and after all there was no particular reason why he shouldn’t remain there. So Peter crept inside the hollow log for a nap. It was quite late In the morning when Peter was awakened. At first he couldn’t think what had awakened him. He had a feeling that it was & noise of some kind. S0 he almost held his breath as he listened with all his might. At first he heard nothing un- usual, Then he heard the sound of something heing dragged right past that old log in which he was hidden Very cautiously Peter peeped out Paddy the Beaver war Aragging a freshly cut young alder over to that | newly begun dam.
