COAXING BACK THE
FAMILY APPETITE
How often a mother, wearied by
long hours in the kitchen prepar
ing appetizing foods for her fam
ily, has been almost" reduced' to
tears to find that her family has
lost its appetite. Day after day
she may be obliged to discontinue
some member of her family don't
like it or finds that it doesn't
agree with them. A more baffling
problem, sometimes, Is overcom
ing the Indifference of a poor
appetite. A poor appetite is s
real danger to the health of an
individual and in the inability to
eat a variety of foods the person
who picks and chooses' from a
well selected meal runs the risk of
being only half-fed. ' At the same
time he fails to whet his appetite
for future meals. Too often in
feeding an invalid or a person
with fickle food habits, one is like
ly to fall into the error of trying
to make a sick person well on
foods that would make a well per
son sick.; And yet, what can one
do with a patient who declares
that they; can't stand . milk that
oranges are too acid that eggs
cannot be tolerated at alL
Most of ns know just what
foods cause us indigestion and we
are careful about when and how
much of those certain things we
eat. Mothers know, usually, how

to prepare their babies' foods
properly and what articles of food
should not be given them. It Is
the finicky child or grown-up that
the mother finds is difficult to
please. Would that some of these
hard-to-please I - people might
change places with the one who
buys, plans and prepares the foods.
Perhaps they would be less critical."'-'--
;
Possibly I should add here that
sometimes a stomach that does
not long for food may still be a
hungry one. but not vigorous
enough to express Itself or feel a
strong desire for food. Such a
one should eat small , amounts of
food 'between j meals, preferably
fruit and should increase the ap
petite for the' next meal. Bread
and crackers may be added to the
between-meal and fresh air, ex
ercise and a change of scenery
and recreation should also add
greatly to a real desire for food.
The wise cook does notHserv
the same dishes over and over to
her family no matter how well
they like the dishes. 'She realizes
that even the most pleasing foods
soon become 1 tiresome and pre
vents this by keeping the menu
changed.
I talked, a short time ago, to- a
bride of three months and she
said she had not served the same
dessert twice since she had been
married, and I thought that was

again and no one will object.

It is surprising bow many peo
ple think there are only a half
dozen ways to cook potatoes. This
being ond of the most common
vegeUblea and a food In the class
with bread which we use at so
many meals it does seem we
might find some more Ingenious
ways of serving potatoes.
. Even in hot weather, when the
appetite lags, potatoes help to
make a light meal substantial
enough to supply seeded, nourish
ment. They should not be cut
from the list as often, as they are,
but served more temptingly..
The secret, then, of coaxing back
the family appetite lies In variety,
not only in the kinds of food
served, but in the manner of cook
ing them. -j - '
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
. When using dry cocoahut with
cake frosting, try steaming the
cocoanut first and you will be
pleased' with the result, i Before
putting ' the cocoanut over the
steam, I place it in a clean white
cloth or table napkin. In this
way none of it is wasted. I
In preparing cold slaw, an ex
cellent : substitute : for vinegar is
the juice from sweet pickle, and
the addition of a cup of. black wal
nuts gives an entirely new flavor
and is delicious. ; i
When cooking i cereal which
must remain in double boiler over
night, turn one cup of cold water
over it just before leaving. This
will prevent any hard crust form
ing on top. In the morning the
water may be turned off.
It one prefers sweet mixed
pickles to the sour variety, .but
finds them more ; expensive, buy
sour pickles In Jars, pour off the
vinegar, add a little sugar and a
few pickle spices, bring to a boil
and pour while hot over the
pickles. After standing a few
days the pickles are just as good
as those purchased already sweet
ened. - ' ; .. : : '

The last Journey we made for
oreiS C1 nussia. wui
you come with me today for a mo-
ment to the "Land of the Mid
night Sun while we happen in
to any typical home there?,
Immediately after receiving us,
and inquiring about our health,
our hostess excuses herself, after
murmuring something about Et
termldags Kaffee and Eftermid
dags Kaffee, or Afternoon coffee,
is an institution 'in Norway, just
as afternoon tea Is an Institution
in England. Whether callers' come
or not .coffee is always served In
the afternoon. It is always cus
tomary to drink coffee before go
ing to bed. . ' " -
. And Eftermiddags Kaffee Is a
meal, too. - We are inrited into the
diningroom. . The r heavily laden
table makes us think that our
hostess must have expected us,
but we are told that the Norwe
gians are .ready for company all
the time. ' ;J
' Coffee is served at the table and
we are offered loaf sugar and
cream. - We notice our hostess
eats her sugar along with her cof
fee. This, we are told, is ; done
in some sections of Norway;
We have waffles .and very, thin,
crisp pancakes spread with, pre
serves; a very delicious Julebrod
spread with butter, and the best
little hard cookies.- p
In' social circles, servants are
employed freely, and E f term id
dings Kaf f e is made an occasion
rather more formal than any af
ternoon service in- this country.
Maids dressed, in black uniforms,
with white aprons and caps, serve
everything. The China used is
dainty and ornamental; the silver
service, is elaborate, and the cof
fee spoons much smaller than ours
and are often fancy gold ones.
By this class of people the little
hard cookies are purchased from
"Conditori" or bakeries, which are
as popular in Norway as -ice cream
parlors are here.
The coffee is made very black
and bitter. : Perhaps we won't'
like that quite so well as our Am
erican coffee, but we find they do
not like the American style of
making coffee. , And perhaps we
are thinking as we eat some of
their fancy cakes and cookies,
that we don't know' how to make
anything quite like them.

CAKE LklNQ
All modern recipes call for level
measurements. - The-' rounding
measure for dry ingredients is too
uncertain to use with the uniform
liquid measure. - Use thev same
size .cup and spoon-, in measuring
all ingredients. : : .
When using pure leaf lard for
ehortening use one-third less thah
of ordinary lard. When oleomarg.
arine is used the result will be the
same as with butter, if a little.aalt
Is added to the oleomargarine and
a little less Is used than la called
for in butter. ', .r.

TURKISH-AMERICAN -'
PILAF
This near-Turkish national dish
proves that one need not ; go to
the Near East to enjoy its savory
cooking.
Select a pound and a bait of
shoulder of lamb or veal and have
it cut in convenient pieces for
serving. Place the meat in ah
enameled ware stewing kettle, cov
er it with three cupfuls of boiling
water, and add one and a half
teaspoonf uls of salt and a tea-
spoonful of chili powder. Bring to
a boil, skim, and simmer for one
hour. Pour the broth. , Into an
enameled ware double boiler and
slowly add halt a cupful of un
cooked rice. Then add half a cup
ful of cleaned . dried currants.
which will not affect or be affect
ed by the surface of the enameled
ware utensil, which is Impervious
to the action of fruit acids. Cook
until the rice and currants are
tender.
Meanwhile, melt four table
spoonfuls of drippings or other
fat in a pan, lay in the cooked
meat and brown slowly. Pile the
meat in the center of a hot plat
ter and surround with rice. Curry
or saffron may be used In place
of the chili powder, if preferred,
or as a variation. ;

oniy that a person becomes adept
in baking in that oven. It Is dif
ficult to give any set rules for
testing an oven for baking, unless
the ovens are of the same type and

Heat your oven at least fifteen
minutes before testing It. Then use
your own method of trying It for

. DELICIOUS CABBAGE
I ROLI f
Vegetables are being used in
very appetising ways nowadays,
and cabbage; too, baa such pos
sibilities.. And as cold cooked
meat is employed the housewife
will , find a very adaptable dish
for utilizing the leftovers of a
roast.'.. v .
Chop one cupful cold meat, one
medium sized onion, one green
pepper, and add two cupfuls of
mashed ,. potatoes. Season with
sage and celery salt and shape the
mixture into small rolls. Roll each
of these in a cubbage leaf (wilted
by placing in boiling water for
five mlntes) and place them in an
enameled, ware baking dish. Add
sufficient boiling water to stock to
cover them about half. Bake for
forty-five minutes, or until the
cabbage leaves are tender.
These cabbage rolls should be
handled carefully and gently
while serving so that their appear
ance is not marred.
The enameled ware baking dish
is especially suitable because it is
so china like and dainty in appear
ance that it can be brought to the
table and used as a serving dish.

"YE OLDE ENGLISH"
PORK PIE
Meat pies owe their distinction
to a rich stock or gravy combined
with fruit. Although they are all
of English origin they are becom
ing popular In American homes
and are always well received dur
ing these brisk days.
Remova .the bone from ' two
pounds oi a loin pork (from
the neck end.) Then cut the
meat into thin slices and dust
them with salt pepper and nut
meg. Line a deep enameled ware
baking dish with plain pastry and
fill with alternate layers of meat
and tart sliced apples, which can
not impair the vitreous surface of
the enameled ware. Sprinkle' the
apples lightly with sugar, and use
meat for the top layer. Pour over
all, three quarters of a cupful of
rich brown stock or boiling water
and a tablespoonf ui of melted
butter. Cover with a top crust In
which vents have been made and
brush over with the beaten yolk
of an egg. so that the top will be
shiny and nicely browned. Bake
in a moderate oven for an hour
and a half.
