Whenever " women say ' they t aren't time to read 'household magazines or listen In to radio talks. It brings to mind the story of the complaining husband. A mistress said one morning: "Mary, my husband ' complains . that the oatmeal is soggy, the cof fee cold, the eggs hardbolled and the toast burnt." - " And the maid replied: "Sure you hare my sympathy, ma'am. It must be fierce to lire with a man like that." v It -must be fierce" to live in a household where the homemaker la not Interested in learning all ahe can about her Job. , '" There are countless v ways in which one can learn from the odd minutes one spends "listening in" or looking over current magazines. The Investment of this time brings conntlese , returns.; It makes healthier, happier, stronger fami lies. - It shows shortcuts and time saving , methods of ' performing familiar household tasks. " . ; I know a housewife who always uses white corn meal - in- cookery. She thinks it - Is "more refined." he doesnt know that yellow corn meal contains valuable food de tente, entirely lacking' in the hite. ; ' -f . -: " I know another housewife who cooks Bpinach in quarts of water. She -doesn't know f that spinach should be cooked without the addi tion of any water sate that cling ing to the leaves after washing. She doesn't know sbe is throwing away the best part of -the vege table when she pours . off , this liquid, after the spinach is cooked. I know another housewife who make French toast from fresh bread. She doesn't know that dry bread, quickly' dipped into the beaten egg produces A far more perfect toast. ' 4 v J And I know another housewife who flours her baking powder bis cults plentifully: anil works the liquid Into the dough vigorously. She doesn't know that' the less flour you use and the less you handle your dough, .the lighter and fluffier your biscuits' will be. But I know still other ones, who snbecribe to one or more maga zines each month. Who listen in religiously ' to radio household talks. Who make a business of keeping house.

SALADS The salads described here are valuable additions to winter menus. Nuts in winter salads pro vide neceesary fats and mineral matters. " Few of us realize the import ance ot certain minerals to our bodily welfare. Iodine, for in stance, is present in infinitely small proportions, yet its absence definitely upsets the nervous sya tem. Iron is needed in the hemo globin of 'the blood. Its absence produces aenemia. Calcium is a necessary element for bone forma tion and so on. ( Fruits, as well as nuts, contain these necessary food elements. Ba nanas, in their assimilation by the digestive system, produce an ash that is valuable In counteracting certain acids. Potatoes have this 4 me virtue. Banana and nut salad, served with celery leaves cr lettuca. and dressed with mayonnaise, combines tiveral ; necessary foods into a wholesome and appetite appealing dish. '. i ; Fruit salads, ! made from pre served or candied fruits, have a high sugar content and therefore are heat and energy producing foods. When dressed with whipped cream mayonnaise they are also rich In fats another element partic ularly necessary to the human tody la the 'winter months.

There are certain conditions to recognize in achieving a desired weight. One is regularity In eat ing. Whether you are eating to grow thin or to grow stout, you must observe regular meal-times. You must eat In a peaceful at mosphere and 'a : peaceful frame of mind or as nearly so as is pos sible. And you: must chew your food thoroughly. - It is a good plan to drink a glass of water before beginning a meal and if you drink tea of coffee to drink it at the. end of a meal, sipping it ..hot. The chief ob jection to drinking a liquid with a meal is this: ; Too many -people use It to wash down partially chewed food, which increases the work of the digestive1 organs and decreases the food value. ' - If you must break your diet, do it sensibly, and arrange for a cor responding deficiency In other foods. That warning is for stout people only. The thin ones won't need it! ' ' However, everything In- the world depends pn your mental at titude so make up your mind that by following- a "regular-plan you will secure the iresult you desire.
