Parker House Rolls are delicious for breakfast Start the day right by making them with PURITY FLUUK. Paste One Hundred and Thirty 'ala^B A FEW years ago salads seldom appeared on the table. They now constitute a course in almost every dinner. They are made in an endless variety of ways and are composed of meat, fish, vege- tables (alone or in combination), or fruits, with the addition of a dressing. The tendency is to eat too few green salads and too many sweet ones. We should cultivate a taste for wholesome green foods. No absolute rule can be laid down for the making of salads. Begin with simple ones and you will gradually become an expert salad maker. The one rule applying to all salads is to have them very cold and to serve them daintily. Dressing may be added at the table or just before sending to the table. If greens are allowed to stand in dressing they will soon wilt. FRENCH DRESSING * teaspoon salt. i teaspoon pepper. 2 tablespoons vinegar. 4 tablespoons olive oil
