WOMAN’S' PAGE. Harmonizing Dissimilar Foods BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. It is as important to “mix con- genialities” in foods as in friendships. Every homemaker knows that if she wishes to make a party a success she must have persons come er who are, or who will be, congenial~when ‘This same thing holds they meet. ingredients one puts good in the IT TAKES JUST THE RIGHT SALAD DRESSING TO MAKE THIS w MIXTURE BLEND AGREE- together in the preparation of foods. Today this is sometimes overlooked. We, in_ America, are so eagerly de- termined to have dishes that are novel that we often mix ingredients which are not naturally harmonious. If we must have novelty we must to 1t that we have something that see *will bind two otherwise opposing in- gredients and make them “congenial.” Let us consider the salad, that dish of America that in many of its varie- ties astounds and literally affronts the Parisian taste. The French are ex- tremely fastidious about their salads. They never mix opposing foods. In making salads they are conservative. Americans are not and some of their salads are marvelous concoctions. Some are curious. Some have ingredients uncongenial to the palate. ‘When foods opposed to one another are combined they must be so bound that the unconsenlnmy is nullified, or, at least, relieved. As an instance, con- sider oranges and onions. Except for their common initial letter, they are totally dissimilar and would shock the palate unless just the right salad dress- ing were used t> offset this. The mellowing qualities of a Russian dressing will subdue inconsistencies and blend the fruit and vegetable. A well made French dressing will quell the insistence of the onion and in- crease the piquant elements of the orange. A mayonnaise dressing should be avoided. Some boiled dressings are excellent for this mixture. But, in every instance, beware of using much onion. Hot waffles and ice cream are un- congenial unless the waffies are very rich. Then they partake of the pastry quality and this is agreeable with ice cream. The harmony can be increased by using some hot sauce over the ice cream, the kind depending upon the flavor of the ice. Vanilla cream is recommended, as it blends well. Hot maple sirup can be ed as a sauce. Hot chocolate or hot butter-scotch sauce are two excellent ones with hot waffles and ice cream. 1t is possible to make opposing foods congenial to the taste by binding them agreeably, just as it is possible to har- monize opposing personalities through some common interest. The person who makes a success in either case is a fortunate adventurer. Savory Giblet Stuffing. Three cups bread crumbs, two table- spoons finely chopped salt pork, two tablespoons chopped parsley, two table- spoons chopped onions, two tablespoons chopped celery, giblets, cooked and cut fine, four tablespoons giblet stock and four tablespoons butter (melted). Light- Iy mix ingredients with fork." Stuf fowl. DAILY DIET RECIPE GERMAN KRAUT. Sauerkraut, 1 pound: bacon fat (or butter), 2 tablespoons; water, 2 cups; caraway seeds, 1 tablespoon; large potato, 1. SERVES 4 PORTIONS. Put sauerkraut and caraway seeds in bolling water and add bacon fat. Boil rapidly until most of water is evaporated. Peel and grate white potato and add to sauerkraut. Simmer gently until potato is cooked. Serve at once. DIET NOTE. Recipe furnishes fiber, a little starch and fat, lime, iron, phos- phorous, vitamins A, B and C.

Things Vinegar Will Do Cures Fatigue.—Not every one knowu’ that after a heavy day's work, a long walk or anything that tires the muscles and brings aching fatigue there is noth- ing better than a warm bath to which has been added a tablespoonful of £ Aches and fatigue depart! lieves Coughs.—If you or yours have one of those tickling and tiring coughs you can help it by taking a tea- spoonful of vinegar and honey. Ordi- nary hiccoughing, too, can usually be stopped by eating slowly a spoonful of brown sugar and vinegar. Polishes Purniture —Furniture wiped over with vinegar before polishing will then take a more brilllant and lasting shine. - It halves the labor, too, for but little “elbow grease” is required. Revives Colors.—Vinegar is a dye re- viver. Any cotton fabric of red or pink in which the color has faded can be re- vived almost to its original hue if a tablespoonful of vinegar be added to the rinsing water. ‘Whitens Potatoes—That bane of the housewife—old potatoes that persist in going black when bolled—need be a bane no more. A teaspoonful of vine- gar added to the water just before it boils stops the blackness. There is no taste of the vinegar. Brightens Metal —If you have much steel to keep bright you may halve the labor and get a quicker and better pol- ish if you first wipe the steelwork over with a little vinegar. Leave it on for & few minutes. ‘When Things Boil Over.—If any- thing has bolled over on the stove and there is smell, a few drops of vinegar thrown on the place will at once end the odor. For Cakemaking. — Eggs are now cheaper, but it may be noted that a des- sertspoonful of vinegar added to a half cup of milk will answer the same pur- pose as two eggs. It is impossible to make a lighter cake than one made with vinegar! Try it. Cure Bruises.—One can put up with help a bruise and will also remove the discoloration. Removes Paint.—If you have been doing some amateur painting and “spot- ted” the windows, a little boiling vinegar will remove the marks, however hard they may have dried. THE LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

I'm going to make the team and I don't mean maybe.” “You only think you are. Why you can’t ever make the scrub.” “No?” Well you watch me. I'm going to make the team all right.” And he did. He was underweight, butterfingered, a dud and a duffer, ac- cording to the various critics of the candidates that year, but he hung on and worked and insisted, “I'm going to make the team " We ar2 too ready to say “You only think so and so.” There is no only about thinking. Thought is one of the most effective forces in the world. Once you harness your thought to a job that job is going to be done, and done exact- ly as you thought it. The trouble is FEATURES. that we do not know what we do think, most of the time, That is true of chil- dren always. “I meant to do something else. T never meant to do that.” Wken a boy or girl says that you can be sure that he or she, does not understand what ideas are uppermost in mind. One does what he thinks of doing. You cannot think one way and act another. What you think, you are. What you think is bound to come out in your actions. To change your actions you must change your thought. ‘That is one of the most difficult things to get a child to understand. They believe what they say. They did not mean to lie. They did mean to study their Jlessons. Something happened, that’s all. They did mean to come home right on time. It was not their fauir that the r.'vPcr was late, or ‘us dance late in starting.
