HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Sandwiches used to be served just as'
a light refreshment and not as a reg-
ular meal. But for a hot summer
day a properly planned sandwich or j
sandwiches, a cold drink and some
fruit makes a delightful repast.
Sandwiches with chopped hard
boiled egg, with or without mayon-
naise, or made with a fried egg and
lettuce are always appetizing.
Chicken Sandwiches, with tom|ajto
-or bacon, coffee and fruit make an
excellent meal.
Cold Veal Sandwiches are delicious.
Use cold veal, green pepper, mayon-
naise, horseradish and bread and
butter.
Other delicious sandwiches can be
made of:
Cold Lamb.
Cucumber with lettuce, salad dress-
ing and buttered toast.
Mayonnaise with chopped green on-
ions or olives.
Roast beef, with water cress, sliced
tomato and mayonnaise. Either
toasted or plain.
Crisp lettuce.
Bacon or Ham.
Cheese Tomato Sandwich: Butter
slices of bread. Layer of American
cheese on top bread. Season. Slice of
ripe tomato on top of this and then
slice of crispy bacon.
There is nothing much more annoy-
ing than to have clean curtains blow-
ing out of an open window either day
-or night. The clip clothes pins are a
solution for this. Buy them in quan-
tity at some cheap store and paint
them in design to match the predom-
inating color in the room where your
curtains are. And use them to pin
your curtains back.
To Peel Fruit Easily
Pour boiling water over the fruit
to be peeled and let stand a few min
ntes before peeling.
Do Not Overdo Starches in Menus
No menu should have more than
■one starch food. Potatoes, macaroni,
sphagetti, rice, all kinds of dried
beans are starches and do not be-
long on a menu together. With a
starch food use new beans, English
peas, spinach, kraut, cabbage, aspar-
agus, corn, cauliflower, carrots,
greens. These contain minerals and
combined with a meat dish one starch
and a fruit dessert make a simple,
wholesome and well balanced menu.

examination may reveal the underly-
ing disease or disorder. If no such
disease or disorder is discovered, a
careful investigation of the habits may
reveal the cause.
The point is that anyone wlho is
subject to frequent headaches should
not be satisfied to obtain mere tempo-
rary relief by taking some pain-killing
drug.
The cause should be carefully
searched for, and removed whenever
this is possible.
