Show THU SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL 8, 1923. TOe MQMieus PrHE COOK BOOK TURNIPS AND HASHES, are prescribed at VEGETABLES of the year. The fuel diet has been a concentrated one. Now we must begin to extend the fata and starches thin the diet. Often people take a more hibernating sort of diet than they realise, without enough liquid. In which case they must pay tha penalty, yet It need not ha so much of a penance If approached la the right way. The physician when hla patient has intestinal Indigestion, or other tveh trouble du to mslfermentatlon very likely tha malf cementation was due to .too scanty a water supply Jocosely prescribes "cows food, by which he generally means rutabaga or yellow a turnip. The cow seems to have much better Intuition about her water ration than do most humans. She tries to get enough and (ha undoubtedly likes tha turnip because It is so full of water and bulk, two good reac sons why men should est It, and there t are others The edible portion of a turnip ia nearly 0 per cent water, and this, as well as its bulk of cellular frame, makes it a good sweeper;- - hut pot a violent one. The fast sweepers carry along and away from the absorbing surfaces the nutritive elements, so that a man who has dona alimentary work enough on a given food or diet to get a return of something over 10 per cent of nutriment, get only 10 or thereabouts, or has multiplied wear and tear by three. Regardless of its value as mare liquid giving a variety to our necessary intake of watery things rutabaga juice is prepared by dieticians to he given as somewhat of an Inter changeable with orange Juice, hut with its own virtue as a medicine. Instead of going tq great trouble to get this I am always recommending that one should pick out a well chilled and large rutabaga turnip, tlice off th top down to the point where it has the largeat circumference, and then ecrape up with a knifa a delicious, cool and sweet foam.

They are electrically equipped with waxy looking candle shaped lights, and are used on an oak fianeled dining room wall. Wall candelabra of forged iron, in a dull, natural colored finish, flank the doorway, and spread a welcoming glow (so gratlfylngly different from the disconcerting glare which is usually found), through the attractive entrance hall ot a suburban home. Centered beneath each candelabra Is a small consols table. On one of these la kept a decorative Inkwell and penholder, so that there la no confusion or delay necessitated for eny of the bothersome " Sign here please cells. A decorative bowl, holding a Japanese Jade tree Is pieced on the other teble. Directly opposite the door la a'long, narrow hall bench, with a fitted, boxed cushion of deep red velvet.

Attached to the tips of the scrolls and at other points of Interest are varlhued glass drops, repeating the colors of the polychroming. The large shallow, cup shaped reservoir is of glistening luster glass, edged with a band of sea green enamel. Another very decorative greened iron acquarium stand has an oblong shaped bowl of cut crystal. The top edge Is left unfinished, so as not to be Unnecessarily accented. This bowl is about the size of, and haa the appearance of a twenty-fiv- e pound cake of Ice, and the feathery green sea weed and colorful gold fish look cool and touch.

WS SIMPLE STITCHES ADD CHARM. feather stitch, outline stitch chain stitch are all used or Us as decorative stitches for dresses, aprons, bio cues, fancy work of different kinds, and baby clothes; and there may be soma of the women who read thW articles who mav be glad to know about them. The chain stitch la often Used aa an outline stitch and is worked towards you instead of from you, as is tbe outline. Begin at one end of the Une to be worked, take a short, straight stitch toward you, putjthe thread under the needle and pull through, making a loop. Take the 'next stitch In tbe material, taking it inside th loop close to th point where th first one came out, put the thread under th needla and pull through. This is ail vrr tw v. ? s i ther la to th stitch, continuing In this sam manner until th place is . covered. The outlln stitch is generally used where a narrower outline or Une U desired than would be made by the chain stitch. In thla stitch, tbe needle points toward you. never away from you. Taka a short stitch to begin with, end make each stitch you take go back of th on before It about ot it length. Always keep the thread on th left aide of th needle; and when following a curved Une, make the stitches a Uttle shorter than on a straight line. In feather stitching one sometime sees the single, double or triple stitching, but If th stitch Is new to one, tt will be better to begin with the single feather stitch. This stitch Is worked toward you and It lit a way like the buttonhole stitch. Bring the needle two-thirds through from th wrong to th right side of th material, fastening it securely on tb under side. Then take a short stitch toward you, diagonal to .th Una to be followed. The next stitch Is taken on the opposite side ot the Une, and a Uttle lower down. In double feather stitching tw stitches are taken on each aide of the Une, Instead of one. th second one being a fraction of an Inch below the first one, ahd if the triple stitch is desired, simply take three on each eide, following the same slant of each as In the double. Keep on In thle manner until the end Is reached, and Instead of using knots to begin and end wrlth, try taking two or three email stitches over ona another on the wrong side of th material... Th drawings that accompany this article will help In making tha directions clear, and It is only practic that will perfect any work ot tht kind. ni ran |
