Fruits which in general supply little protein and fat, and widely varying amounts of carbohydrates, received scant consideration as a source of essential nutrients. n..i. ...uu tnn1iKr in.

And those who follow the pri-mary rule of a tvell balanced diet and serve fruit twice daily have been rewarded with increaned health and vigor. In addition to their minerals and vitamins, fruits are valued be-cause of their bulk or cellulose which helps to insure regu-lar health habits. -- - The Most Economical Fruit Many homemakers consider that fruits as a class are among the "V"" Spoils Your Looks Impairs Efficiency . , .

Ripe bananas, however, practically melt In the mouth. Be-ing easily digested, they are a fortunate choice for elderly per-sons, providing necessary energy values with a minimum of diges-tive effort. --M- oat Versatile Fruit Bananas are always in season and are usually most inexpensive. It is desirable, of course, that only fully ripened bananas be eaten raw. That is because their con-stituents vary with the degree of ripeness. Bananas are picked when they are green and hard, and the car-bohydrate content is almost en-tirely starch. As they ripen, the starch is converted into easily di-gested sugars. In fully ripened bananas those in which brown flecks appear on the yellow skins the starch has almost entirely disappeared and the flavor has been developed to its highest point. The w banana is also ripe enough for eating and it is likewise firm enough for cooking. Partially ripe bananas those which are yellow with a green tip may be cooked and served as a vegetable or as dessert. Considering their availability, ease of digestion, high food value and economy, bananas deserve to be classed as one of the staple foods in every, well planned dietary. t WNU C.

The ripe banana is considered to be especially valuable at the time when sugar is withdrawn from the formula and the baby is given whole milk for the first time. The calories in the bananas take the place of the calories previously received from the sugar, and thus weight gains are steadily main-tained. Help Children Gain Weight Because of their high calorie value, plus their content of min-erals and vitamins, bananas may welj be used regularly throughout childhood. Bananas and milk make an ex-cellent food combination because the milk supplements the fruit with protein, fat. minerals and vitamins. This combination is often used as a supplementary lunch for underweight children, and carefully conducted studies have indicated its usefulness in helping youngsters to gain weight. Almost all children like the taste of bananas and they do not seem to tire of this bland and pleasing fruit. And though the banana is regarded as a solid food, it can, if desired, be mashed and whipped into liquid form and combined with milk to make a healthful and nourishing beverage. Ideal for the Dderly If elderly individuals are to maintain top health, fruits should be given a prominent place in their diet. But many fruits are avoided by individuals past mid-dle age, either because their acid taste is displeasing or because more expensive items included in the food budget. But that state-ment is far too gen-eral and indicates a lack of informa-tion concerning the comparative nutri-tive values of the different kinds of fruit. For example, it has been said of Iha rirlirimm and economical banana, that it gives more nutritive as well as money value than almost any other food. Fruits, in general, are .fre-quently divided into two classes; they are known as flavor fruits when they contain 80 per cent or more of water and as food fruits when the water content is less than 80 per cent. Bananas are a food fruit of the first order! Ripe bananas are rich in carbo-- i i t I 4Via hn4u nyaraics anu luimau with splendid energy values, with a minimum tax on the digestive system. Double Fuel Value When fully ripened, this fruit provides quick energy because a certain amount of its sugars are almost immediately absorbed by the body. On the other hand, sev-ir-hours must elapse before the remaining sugars are completely assimilated. Thus, eating bananas provides a continuous supply of energy for a considerable period. They not only help to promote rapid recovery from fatigue but also furnish a continuing supply of energy which keeps one from be-coming hungry again too soon after a meal. The edible portion of one aver- - age-size-d banana weighs about 3 ounces and provides 100 calories. It takes almost the same weight of white potato to yield the same number of calories. -- - Bananas a Protective Food Bananas take an important posi-tion among the protective foods, because they are a good source of four vitamins, A, B, C and G, and contain a total of 11 minerals. They leave an alkaline-as- h fol-lowing digestion. Fully ripened bananas are easi-ly digested and are mildly laxa-tive. -- - Valuable in Child's Diet Bananas deserve a prominent place in the child's diet from in-fancy to maturity.

"Then we'll give Heather and Noel a Job sewing up moccasins and patching old clothes while we locate those sands." "Yes, but I'm going to pan gold, too," she Insisted, "and I'm going to hunt deer." For hours they paddled down the long lake. Red throated loons dove at their approach to scold them from a distance with their wailing; gulls rose from their nesting rocks to flap lazily off the liquid mirror that pictured sky and forest; shel-drake skittered along the shores, flaying the surface with their short wings. When the sun plunged behind the low western hills, rimming the tun-dra with Are, the lake still reached before them, mile after mile, into the north. They made camp on one of a group of islands edged with the young green of sand-ba- r willows and alders where, back from the peb-bly shore, the thick spruce and tam-arack would mask their fire from the sharp eyes of the Naskapl. Soon the hardy puppies, who had been following the lake shore in sight of the canoe, came swimming out to the island. They were now two years old and full grown. When dogs got what the masters could not use of the meat. When it was dark and the smoke could not be seen, a fire was built and they started smckins the venison to preserve it for future use. In the morning the Peterboro con-tinued down the lake. It was deep in July and John McCord and Alan were growing anxious. Already less than two months of summer re-mained in which to accomplish their purpose. Every day was precious and must be put to good use if they were to succeed. And beyond this was the danger of meeting the Nas-kap- i. Of McQueen they talked lit-tle. They knew they would hive to reckon with the four men some-where behind them, when they had their gold and started back over the ice for the cache at the head of tho river. The canoe traveled past boulder-strew- n points and scrub covered is-lands down the long lake. They were about to turn inshore to boil the kettle for a midday meal, when the bowman, trailing his paddle in one hand, looked fixedly toward a point of boulders thrusting out into the lake ahead. "What d'you see, Noel?" asked McCord. Noel reached back his hand with-out removing his eyes from the far as the canoe cautiously approached with two rifles levelled on him. When the boat was within calling distance, cupping his hands, Noel shouted in Montagnais: "Kekway! Kekway! Why do you build the fire? What do you want? If you have people hidden behind the rocks, we will shoot you when they fire. Our guns have great magic. They shoot straight and far!" The Indian understood the Mon-taga- is for back came the reply in a shrill voice: "I trade at the big Fort Chimo. I am alone and starv-ing. I have no gun!" "He says he's starving and alone, John!" explained Alan. "He trades at Chimo!" Noel was giving the Indian on the beach a careful inspection with the binoculars. Shortly he grunted as he handed them to McCord. "He so weak he not stan' up. He lean on rock, and he ees ver' poor een de face. Where is your gun and ca-noe?" demanded Noel In Montag-nais. From the shore came the answer which Noel interpreted: "He say not to shoot, he run away from de Caribou People. Dey keel all hees familee." "There's no doubt about that In-dian being starved, Alan," said Mc- Cord with the glasses at his eyes.

"Ah-hah- , dat man ees starve for sure." So, under cover of three rifles, Alan pushed the canoe in to within a hundred feet of the point of boul-ders. As-- the canoe approached the Indian, it was evident to those who watched him that he was in a starv-ing condition. His dark face was pitiably thin and he was apparent-ly so weak that he leaned against a boulder while he talked with Noel. He was dressed from head to foot in deerskin, coat, shirt, leggings and moccasins, and he wore his hair in the Naskapi manner, chopped off at the shoulders. "He's sure wild looking with that long hair," said McCord. "Not much more than a boy, too." "He does look starved, Dad," sympathized Heather as Noel con-versed with the Indian. "My! what j Uaskapi?"

Suddenly Alan's roving eyes focused on a point of the shore two miles up the lake. "That looks mighty like a canoe to me, Heather," he said, rising, his eyes still watching the distant shore. "A canoe? You don't think it's In-dians?" she asked, her voice husky with apprehension. "I'm going for the glasses." "Something that looks like a ca-noe moving along the shore," Alan announced to the two men at the tents. All three hurried to the beach and joined Heather. Focusing his glasses, Alan gazed for a space without comment, then handed them to McCord. "It's hard to make it out, John, against the green of the shore, but it looks like a canoe." For a long time McCord studied the object in the distance. Then he handed the glasses to Noel. "What do you think, Noel?" The Indian was occupied with the glasses and did not answer. Heather's violet eyes grew dark with dread. "What will happen to the dogs if they run into the Naskapi fJUiliU fc i - " Shipping his paddle the bowman fo-cused the binoculars. "I can't make out anything, can you, John?" said Alan. "No." Then the muttered "Ah-hah!- " of the bowman centered the attention of the other three. "Man on dat point, dere!" he continued. "He got fire dere, also." 'A fire!" "Dat feller ees kiskwew, for sure," said the Montagnais, after an interval. "He raise hees shirt on a stick, now." "You don't think he's trying to draw us in shore so they can reach us with their muzzle loaders? We'll take no chances!" said John Mc- Cord, making the water boil behind his heavy paddle. "Let's paddle over to where an Indian's muzzle loader can't reach us, John, and have a look at this man," suggested Alan. So, while Noel watched the point and swept the shores behind it, the canoe moved slowly across and stopped out of range of the shore. It was clearly evident, now, that the man on the point was greatly ex-cited. Dropping the stick which he hae. been waving he began to shout queer nairi "Notice how bright his eyes are? That's a sure sign," said John. Alan, understanding most of the conversation, listened closely to No-el's talk with the Naskapi. Then Noel turned to the others in the ca-noe while the stranger stared in undisguised amazement at the gold-en haired girl in the clothes of a man. "He say beeg band of Naskapi ees toward de rising sun, east of here, on de barren. Dey spear deer at cross-ovai- r on lak'." "What is he doing here, alone?" demanded McCord. "Why is he starving when the lake is full of fish?" "Dis ees not hees countree. He hunt de Quiet Water down de Kok-soa- Dees Caribou People keel all hees familee. He run away from dem." "That explains it then. He wants to get down river, does he?" "Ah-hah.- " They took the young Indian In the canoe and crossed to the island where they had left the dogs.

"Give him on the shore?" she cried. "Oh, I don't want anything to happen to the dogs!" Alan smiled at her. She loved the Ungavas as he did and the dogs loved her. What, indeed, would hap-pen, he wondered, if they ran into the Naskapi while they followed the canoe along the shore?' At last, after a long observation, Noel turned to the others with a twinkle in his small eyes. "Dat cano' ees deert" "What? Deer?" "Ah-hah- ! Dey are out in de lak now.

They launched the Peterboro and the four blades lifted the empty craft through the water, for Heath-er paddled with the skill of a man. Caribou have poor eyesight but when, at last, they saw the canoe behind them cutting off their re-treat, to the shore, they became panic-stricke- Lifting themselves almost out of the water, with heads, backs and white sterns exposed, they churned the still surface of the lake with the drive of their piston-like legs and splay hooves.

A LETTER comes telling the story of mats a clever girl designed for her dressing table. The problem was to make them to fit spaces of unusual size. Her room color scheme was blue and white and a design of white em-broidered snow crystals on cool blue linen was what she wanted. Here is the way she achieved a charming result. The linen was cut the desired size and narrow hems creased with a warm iron. The hems were then backstitched in white from the right side with three strands of six-stran- d mercerized embroid-ery cotton. She wanted the ar-rangement of the snow crystals to be helter-skelt- er just as they Apple Trees of the Future May Grow on Their Own Roots, Nursery Expert Says When the cuttings are made In the fall it is only necessary to remove the shoot, strip off the tape or paper tube, make the basal cut in the eti-olated area, and set it out. Why etiolation should favor the produc-tion of roots on stem tissue is as much "in the dark" as the process itself, says Doctor Gardner. Several practical advantages are seen for the process, mainly in that it is easier and cheaper to make a cutting than a graft. One man can wrap several thousand shoots in one day. Too, there is a possibility of avoiding variability common in root stocks of grafted apple trees. In many cases, however, it is more desirable to grow apple trees on roots other than their own. Some varieties have root systems that lack cold hardiness and are sus-ceptible to disease and insect at-tacks. The propagation of such on their own roots would not be desirable. Apple trees of the future may grow on their own roots. In the past the apple tree was an assem-bled article with the g part grafted to a common root stock such as the French crab variety. This was necessary because seed-lings do not produce true to variety, and because cuttings of stem tissues would not take root. Now scientists of the United States Department of Agriculture have developed a method by which stem cuttings of apple varieties are induced to form root initials or points of origin on the stem that promptly develop into roots when the cuttings are taken from the tree and set in the soil, thus doing away with grafting. The process is described by Dr. F. E. Gardner, in charge of nursery stock investigations for the bureau of plant industry, as "etiolation." The growing shoot is wrapped in black tape when it starts to put out leaves in the spring. A piece 24 to 3 inches long is sufficient to wrap four or five times spirally around the young shoot as near the growing tip as possible. Another method is to place a small black paper tube over the shoot. All growth is made in complete, or nearly complete, absence of light.
