Some one has said that breakfast is the "hopeless meal"! And it is true in many households that breakfast has become a monotonous succession of cereal, boiled eggs and toast morning morning after morning. But this need not be, for it offers as many chances Yor variation as do other meals, if intelligently intelligently planned and thought over. First, the cereal is the base of attack! attack!

The future of the world is a question question of man power. For a nation man power.means men plus man. For the individual man power means simple, sane, reasonable, moral manhood. Spiritual Growth.

She referred to the raisins, which were cooked with the oatmeal, making a fruity -flavor and a change from the usual inspidity of cereals. In'the same way dates, figs and even nuts can be added toward the last cooking of cereals for variety. Try cracked wheat and cut-up dates, with cream, and see if this will not make breakfast tempting! It is better to use these sweet fruits instead of the acid fruits like grapefruit, if milk and cream are eaten generously at the ! ly and serve. When carefully cooked cooked and sliced thin this will be found almost as good as rib roast, and there is no waste to it. Things To Remember.
