Cooking Tongue
Before putting the tongue into the
water, trim it carefully and skewer
it into good shape; when it is boiled,
remove the skin; if it is to be eaten
cold, replace the skewer, put it again
in the water in which it was boiled,
and let stand until cold, then cover
it witn a meat glaze. If served hot,
pour over it a white sauce and gar
nish with parsley, or sliced pickles.
If a smoked tongue is used, soak it
over night in cold water, then put
it into water in the morning and
bring to the boiling point, then sim
mer three or four hours, or until
tender. A fresh tongue should be
boiled an hour and a half to two
hours; a few soup vegetables may
be added if liked.

CAREFUL DOCTOR
Prescribed Change of Food Instead
of Drugs
It takes considerable courage for a
doctor to deliberately prescribe only
food for a despairing patient, instead
of resorting to the usual list of med
icines. There are some truly scientific phy
sicians among the present generation
who recognize and treat conditions as
they aro and should bo treated re
gardless of the value to their pockets.
Hero's an instance:
"Four years ago I was taken with
severe gastritis and nothing would
stay on my stomach, so that I was
on tho verge of starvation.
I heard of a doctor who had a
summer cottage near me a special
ist from New York, and as a last
hope, sent for him.
"After he examined me carefully
he advised me to try a small quan
tity of Grape-Nuts at first, then as
my stomach became stronger to eat
more.
"I kept at it and gradually got so
I could eat and digest three tea
spoonfuls. Then I began to have
color in my face, memory became
clear, where before everything
seemed a blank. My limbs got
stronger and I could walk. So I
steadily recovered.
"Now after a year on Grape-Nuts
I weigh 153 pounds. My people
were surprised at the way I grew
fleshy and strong on this food."
Read the little book, "Tho Road
to Wellville," in pkgs.
"There's a Reason."
Ever read tho above letter? A new
ono appears from time to time. They
aro genuine, true, and full of human
interest.
