Orchid Looks Good
On Dinner Plate
Tokyo U.R An orchid looks
just as good on a dinner plate
as it does on m'lady's coat
maybe better.
At the Nightingale, a Buddhist
egetarian restaurant here,
baby orchids are a popular dish.
The orchid tastes like an arti
choke. The Nightingale's chef.
Sciryu Masada. serves it in a
course called "chopstick clean
ser." after a rather gooey chick
on dish sprinkled with sesame
seeds. Its purpose is to cleanse
the mouth of previous flavors
and, at the same time, rinse the
chopsticks.
Masada prepares them accord
ing to Buddhist formula he
learned from his father.
Diners sit on tatami matting
on the floor and are served on
I small, low tables. A typical
luncheon might include, broil
ed mushrooms, seaweed, veget
ables fried to a crunchy good

Aide Read Accounts
Mike's plight became known
internationally. Miss Keller
wrote the letter after Polly
Thompson, her companion of
many years who acts as her eyes
and ears, read her accounts of
Mike's blindness. Miss Thompson
"talks" to Miss Keller with a
language of finger movements
in the palm of her hand.
"I beg you to soften your grief
by looking at his handicap hope

and faith of those who study the

something that looked like an

by strings to his head, and put
on a pair of overshoes, with

You buy a refrigerator only two or three times
in your lifetime.
Yet you don't hesitate to buy one without
getting so much as a look at the intricate "works'"
that makes it run.
How do you dare make 6uch an important
purchase without having an expert check it over
for you? What makes you so sure you're getting
your money's worth when you say, "I'll take
that one"?
The answer's obvious. You look for the brqrd
name on the refrigerator your "guarantee."
You've learned to follow this first rule of safe
and sound buying:
A good brand is your best guarantee
No matter what kind of product you want to
buy, you know a good brand won't let you down.
You know the maker stands back of it guar
antees it. And so, when you buy a good brand
you know you're right.
Read this newspaper to find out which are
the good brands (and the stores that sell them.)
The more good brands you know, the 6urer you
are about all your shopping.
