One Saturday afternoon a young married couple went shopping for their Sunday dinner. She ordered a can of prepared soup, a can of peas, porato chips. slices of filet of beef and a can of mushrooms to garnish them, olives, rolls, some pastry and mint wafers. Coffee and butter were stock- €d in the home pantry. Now, that was a tasty dinner. When set forth 1t must have looked very party like. But the young husband was astonished at the hole it made in $10. He was really bothered. The 4 thought of such an extravagant din- \ ner spofled his Sunday. He said that such expensive food was not for them, that a plain beef stew with vegeta- bles would cost about half the money, would be just as palatable and just as nutritious. The voung wife felt that the dinner she had planned saved her time. The dinner she bought took about 25 minutes to get together, while a beef stew diner would have taken her all morning to prepare. And it would have taken more time to make dessert than it did to buy it. These young folks will have to learn that marriage is a partnership in which each must give full share. ‘When money is short it is up to the young wife to learn about food values. Tt 1s her job to know that a plece of top chuck appetizingly cooked en cas- serole or in a pot roast or served as Hungarian goulash will give as much nourishment as filet mignon. Food prices and personal tastes vary @ good deal. But the young husband was right when he sald that there would be as much nutrition and*that there could be as much palatability in @ beef stew dinner as in the one his wife had bought. If the wife feels that beef stew is not Sundayfied and that Hungarian goulash doesn’'t alter the basic fact of Sunday stew, she could have the butcher cut presentable plece of solfd top chuck for her. She could have a few young carrots cut in tin: i i can of tomatoes to mak & rich gravy and a bay leaf, clove or a very tiny piece of lemon peel for favor; she could peel the potatoes very thin and cook them whole around the plece of pot roast. Plain lettuce salad or lettuce dressed with grated sea- soned raw beet would not cost as much as the olives and would be better. ¥or, though olives vield iron, the raw salad would give bulk, lime, iron and the vitamins A, B, C. If the young couple were very hun- gry and could afford it, the can of soup and the can of peas could also appear. If at all possible, the young wife should buy dainty whole-wheat volls instead of white flour rolls. And for dessert a colorful gelatin with vlain cream or the top of the bottle cream or canned cream would do. ‘I'he mint wafers can be omitted. In- stead of the gelatin, which could be fixed in a few mniutes on Saturday, she might have a simple frult de sert, like pefruit peeled. all the membrane removed and broken in pieces and served daintily in a she bet cup with a cherry.

The biggest and most far-roving nut in the world is not a human nut, but the coconut. Nobody knows where it originated. Of its genus, Cocos, there are scores of species wild in South America. But the useful and common coconut has not been found wild there; it is not certainly known wild anywhere; apparently the Poly- nesians spread it about the Pacific; some even assert they came to merica and got it. But the coconut is still a mystery to sclence, because, unlike most fruits, it can float about in salt water for months without get- ting water-logged, and then, when washed up on an island, can sprout. | Now what do you know about that? | Answers to Yesterday's Questions. 1.
