Show DIET FOR SUhflER Desserts Should Not Be Dispensed With Suitable Suit-able Food for Warm Weather ST IS approaching tho season of tho year when the work of cooking-must cooking-must be planned in relation to the heat generated In both our bodies and kitchens. Continual cold meats are nolthcr appetizing nor entirely health, ful, but to spond hours over tho hot range Is exhausting and to a certain extent wasteful. The dally meals should be so planned as to permit as much as possible of tho cooking to be dono in tho early part of tho duy We havo had reason to know that tho doctrine of abolishing dessert Is regarued ns rank heresy. Ono feels excommunicated from tho fellowship of tho oloct after 3ho has dared advance ad-vance tho theory In public. As a matter mat-ter of fact, tho time to do away with tho dessert Is In winter, when the en-tiro en-tiro day's meals are composed of concentrated foods to which tho dessert des-sert adds unnecessary labor, expense and amount of food But tho spring nnd summer desserts should In gen-oral gen-oral be fruits, raw, cooked or entering Into tho composition of tho dish. 1 Fruit and vegetables can hardly boi used too freely at this time. In planning tho bills of fare, begin with tho idea that work over a hot stovo and in a hot kitchen Is to bo reduced as far as possible.

Almost all fruits may H bo cooked together in a syrup and H served as an agreeable accessory or H courso In a meal. The berries soon " H cook soft, and must be treated care- H fully to preserve both shapo nnd flavor, H but strawberries, pineapple, cherries jH and nprlcots arc delicious together.

It H is far better to havo a dinner of a H good soup, vegetables and fruit than H one In which meat plnya too great a H share. H When pics arc to bo made, make tho H pastry the day before and let It re- H main In a cool place until morning. H Then make the pic early In the day H hen the oven Is In good condition H nnd the cook fresh and ready for work. H If a coal stove must bo used, learn H to run It so that tho heat Is held In tho H stovo and oven and not permitted (o H radiate Into fie room. A red-hot H stovo Is heating all tho air about it, H but not tho oven in it H When fresh fruit is not available H for breakfast, uso marmalade and the H ioft-ovcr canned fruit, which It Is bet- H tor not to carry over to another season. H Uso tho chafing dish for Sunday H night teas, and plan tho weok's work H ahead so that time, energy and money H may bo saved and you havo time to H enjoy GodV, out-of-doors.
