ing fruit in her diet was when
I've ate the original apple. Rut
«ncc that time the slogan “an apple
» day keeps the doctor away” has
become fixed in our national con-
sciousness, and the consumption of
some sort of fruit at every meal
has become almost a national cus-
tom.
The reasons for this can be found
in the following paragraphs from
“Food, Nutrition and Health” by
E. V. McCollum, Ph.D., Sc.D. and
Nina Sinimonds, Sc.D. (Hygiene).
Hr. McCollum is Professor and Dr.
Simmonds was formerly Associate
Professor of Chemical Hygiene,
School of Hygiene and Public
Health, Johns Hopkins University,
Baltimore, Md. They say in their
hook:
“In the whole range of vegetable
foods the fruits arc the most at-
tractive in appearance and flavor.
No others furnish such a great
variety of flavors. The fruits are
among the most valuable of foods
for a number of reasons. Most
fruits are rich in the vitamin C,
which is not widely distributed
among other natural foods, except
tomatoes and some of the succulent
vegetables, and fresh, uncooked
leaves.
Among Most Valuable Foods
"The citrus fruits—oranges, lem-
ons and grapefruit—stand first in
their content of vitamin C. Apples,
plums, cherries, etc., contain much
less of it. The tomato ripened in
the field is rich in vitamin C. Those
picked green and ripened by time
contain very little. Green fruits in
many cases contain substances which
are disturbing to the digestive tract.
It is well known that unrine apples
and other unripe fruits are unsafe
to eat. Ripe fruit is rich in water
and relatively poor in nutrient prin-
ciples. A large volume of fruit,
therefore, is necessary to furnish as
much energy or protein as would
he furnished by a very small pack-
age of some of the more conccn
trated products, such as cereals, peas,
beans, etc. Notwithstanding the
fact that they are water-rich foods,
poor in all the prominent nutrient
substances—proteins, fats and car-
bohydrates—they are nevertheless
very valuable components of the
dietary, and should he regularly
used. Fruits are especially useful in
promoting intestinal elimination and
so help to promote intestinal
hygiene.”
All Fruits Now Available
Of course all fresh fruits arc now
annually available in the localities
where they grow, but the canning ot
fresh fruits picked at the very mo-
ment of their prime ripeness has
proved a great boon to the health
of the nation. No one need now
go without fruit in the diet since
these canned fruits are available
everywhere at every season of the
year.
The list of fruits so available in-
cludes apples (whole and sliced, ap-
ple sauce, apple butter and baked
apples), apricots (whole and
halves), blackberries, blueberries,
cherries (white, red and black),
crabapples, cranberries, currants,
figs, fruits for salad, gooseberries,
grapes. grapefruit, loganberries,
peaches (whole, halves* sliced and
crushed), pears (whole and halves),
pineapples (sliced, crushed and tid-
bits), plums, prunes (dry and in
syrup), quinces, raisins, raspberries
(black and red), rhubarb and straw-
berries Alt of the highly colored

fruits are put up in the sanitarj
enamel lined cans which have be-
come so popular with the housewife.
If the supply of any of tliesc lags
or the price goes up, owing to sonic
untoward circumstance like the
heavy frost this spring in California
which cm down this year’s crop of
peaches, another fruit can he readily
substituted. For instance, Italian
prunes form a*highly acceptable sub-
stitute for peaches, and their jui<:<
blends wonderfully in fruit cocktails.
Some Recipes for Summer
Here are a dessert and a salad
which will suggest how to use fruit
in at least two of your three main
meals. The first is known as
Fresh Prune Souffle: Beat four
egg whites stiff and fold in four
tablespoons sugar. Drain the con-
tents of a No. 3 can of fresh prunes
remove stones and cut the pulp fine.
Fold pulp into the egg whites (re-
serving the syrup for beverages and
sauces), add one-half teaspoon al-
mond extract, pour into a buttered
baking dish, and hake in a moderate
men—350°—for twenty minutes, or
until firm and a delicate browm.
Serve at once with a yellow custard
sauce poured over. This recipe
serves eight.
The second combines fresh rip<*
tomatoes with canned pears, and is
known as
Pear and Tomato Salad: Slier
chilled tomatoes and lav one slice
in each of eight individual nests of
lettuce. Place half of a pear from
a No. 2 can on top of each, cut side
up. Mix one cream cheese with
three tablespoons chili sauce and
pile in the pear cavities. Garnish
with strins of canned pimiento and
serve with either mayonnaise ox
French dressing.*

Hints on How
To Keep Cool
Not everyone can seek the mountain
glades, crystal cool lakes or snowy
peaks when the temperature mounts;
and yet if a thinking person will ob-
serve a few rational rules, it is possi-
ble to keep both well and cool ill hot
weather. First of all, do not let the
mind dwell upon the weather, or the
eyes upon the thermometer watching
all the while to measure the heat.
“When the weather is hot sin-
race blood vessels are expanded and
the sweat glands bathe the body with
perspiration. By evaporation, the
skin is cooled, the rapidity and de-
gree of cooling depends upon the rate
the air is moving. Drafts are harm-
less in the summer time unless the
cooling of the body is too rapid. A fan
is as ttsi fnl to the human machine as
it is to an automobile. A daily hath
keeps the pores open. Some exerelse
is essential, lint over-exercise in the
hot sun should be avoided if possible.
"Remember in dressing that dark
elothes absorb the heat: and that
loose fitting elothes allow greater
freedom of air movement than those
whtch are tight or confined at any
point. Foods also influence body
heat. Hot weather is not the time
for a high protein diet. Such choice
of food causes a notable rise in tem-
perature. One should lie extremely
careful to eat no overripe fruit, or
tainted or spoiled food.
"Drink plenty of good, cool water,
an extra amount is needed In the sum-
mer on account of the activity of the
sweat glands. Both cold and hot bev-
erages induce perspiration, and if the
humidity is not high, speedy evapora-
tion may take place, which results in
loss of heat. Cold beverages take the
body heat to warm them in the stom-
ach and will carry away heat when
they are eliminated from the body:
hence are very valuable If not taken
too fast or too cold. Plenty of sleep,
or at least plenty of rest, even If it is
too hot to sleep, will aid in keeping
one strong and well during the hot
weather.
"Lead a moderate well balanced life
during the hot days and get plenty of
rest.”
HINTS
for the Home
it is just common sense to use pack-
age foods wherever possible. Dust and
personal handling, germs and what
not are kept from these foods where
it is impossible to give bulk foods the
same protection. This is one of the
so-called "food fads" that one may
indulge in without fear of contradic-
tion from any source, for in helping
to keep foods fresh it contributes as
much to economy as it does to health.
Another so-called fad that is ac-
knowledged to be good practice is the
habit of choosing foods that are not
over-refined. This applies chiefly V’
cereals, corn meal, flours and rice,
where the most beneficial substance is
found close to the outer hull of the
product .and is lost through over-
bleaching, polishing and bolting.

an additional half hour, stirring fre-
quently. When stiff, pour the mix-
ture into molds and when cool set in

move from molds anil serve with whip-
ped cream.
The positive, comparative and su-
perlative degrees of heat rest almost dividual and his altitude toward
altogether on the behavior of the in- J weather.

YOUR HAIR IN SUMMER
Ever since the vogue of permanent
waving became a nation-wide institu-
tion, women everywhere have paid
l<‘ss attention to the1 care of their hair
in summer than ever before. Once it
was a difficult matter to keep straight
hair softly curled and neatly arrang-
ed through the warm, moist weather.
Women worked hard over their luiir
—they “fussed” with it—spent much
i ime and energy in keeping it smooth,
shining and well groomed.
Now, fortified with a permanent
wave, they face the summer season
boldly. No extra attention is given
to the hair. A shampoo occasionally,
a moment for pushing the wave into
place with the fingers, and the hair is
forgotten for a week, except for the
hasty care it. gets during the daily
combing.
All this saves time during vacation
days, but it is exceedingly had for the
hair. Even permanently waved hair
needs careful regular attention to
keep it healthy and well groomed
looking. The operator who waved
your hair may have told you not to
brush it that if you brushed it often
the wave would come out. But 1 warn
you to brush, and to brush frequently.
The wave may be loosened slightly or
it may not last quite so long, but
your hair will be softer and more
shining. The added gloss and life it
has will more than make up for a lit-
tle less in wave. And a wide, loose
wave, remember, is much more fash-
ionable than a tight one this season.
It you are swimming daily in salt wa-
ter you should take unusually good
care of your hair. Since no swim-
ming cap yet devised will keep the
hair from getting wet when you dive
or swim under water, you must re-
number to rinse your hair under a
clear water shower after each swim.
Salt left in the hair makes it sticky,
dull and lifeless.
Exposing your head hatless, to the
warm, summer winds is excellent for
the hair. To be fragrant and healthy
it must he frequently sunned and air-
ed. Continued exposure to the hot.
midday sun, however, will burn and
dry it dangerously. Wear a light, straw
hut it- you are to be in the hot sun for
any length of time and if your hair
already looks sunburned, use a hot oil
massage before each shampoo.
The height of foolishness is two old
maids playing a game of strip poker
with a clothing dummy.
Now that the Gideons have put a
Bible in every hotel room in the coun-
try, we notice hotel managers have
placed a corkscrew in every hath
room.
