    SOMETHING NEW AND DIFFERENT.
(See Recipes Below)
New Recipes for Your File
“Something old and something
new” is Just as important in menus
as it is in a bride's costume.
It’s a good idea, when you plan
to experiment with something en
ureiy new, 10 in
clude in that
meal one dish
you know the
family is really
keen about. For
instance, if the
dessert is some- ^
thing very new
and different, be
sure that the
main dish of your meal is one mai s
familiar and well-liked.
And, it's an excellent idea, when
most of a meal is composed of fam
ily favorites, to include one new
dish for a touch of variety. It may
be a cut of meat that you haven’t
used before, prepared in an unusual
manner; or perhaps it will be a
vegetable that’s new and strange to
you; or it might be just an out-of
the-ordinary conserve or relish to
supplement last summer's supply,
which, by this time is probably run
ning very low.
You’ll find, here, an assortment of
recipes for foods that are unusual
and delicious. There’s a new way
of preparing shoulder of beef—in
one of those easy casserole dishes
you like to serve, where you don’t
want to spend too much time in the
kitchen; serve the Baked Shoulder
Steak with baked or scalloped pota
toes, buttered green beans and rhu
barb pie, and watch your family
beaml
‘‘Pork chop treat” served with a
crisp, chilled salad of lettuce, ap
ples, and dates, needs only a bev
erage, bread and a favorite dessert
to make a completely satisfying
meal and if you want to please the
man of the family in any kind of
weather, serve “pork chops deli
cious” with cheese biscuits, a sim
ple green salad, lemon meringue
pie and coffee.

' their island
haven under the Trujillo plan. But,
this specialist, John N. Rosenberg,
New York lawyer, has, since the
World war, been occupied with the
large-scale human-race bankruptcy
of war and famine in Europe, so
he is entering no new field. He is
president of the Dominican Resettle
ment association, which is co
operating with General Trujillo in
what appears to be an absolutely
unique experiment in giving 500
refugees a new start in the western
world, with houses, roads, land, cat
tle and farm implements ready for
them.
Mr. Rosenberg has helped
liquidate and rebuild all rorts
of financial and social wreckage,
Including Ivar Kreuger’s Inter
national Match company. He is
the author of “Corporate Re
organization and the Federal
Courts,” but he Is also the
author of another book called
“Punchinello.”
Fantasy, or at any rate, a play
of the imagination, has occupied
quite as much of his time as law
and bankruptcy. He has painted
hundreds of pictures, many of which
are hung in good galleries, includ
ing the F6gg museum of Harvard.
He is an etcher, lithographer and
playwright, and Broadway has pro
duced his plays. For six years he
was associated with Kenneth Mac
Gowan and Stark Young in backing
the Provincetown theater. His
short stories have appeared in
many magazines. All this with time
out to be counsel for the Irving Trust
company.
The foregoing might suggest
the activities of a trap-drum
mer. But he is, instead, leisure
ly and meditative, an easy
going pipe-smoker who always
Bcems to have a lot of time on
his hands. Another of his books
is “Pastel Expression.” He is
busy In communal, civic and
philanthropic enterprises and in
the immediate post-war years
was head of the American Joint
Distribution Commission for
Europe. This took him to Rus
sia, and he wrote a book about
that, too—“On the Steppes.” If
there is to be a general European
receivership—financial and cul
tural—he might as well take
over. He is a native of Al
legheny, Pa., educated at Colum

Penguins Like Peace
We all know that penguins can’t
fly, but few people are aware that
baby penguins, who can swim al
most as soon as they are born,
take pebbles with them as ballast.
If penguins are disturbed they
will promptly desert their nesting
grounds. A few years ago this
was proved when fishermen at
Marcus island, off the southwest
coast of Africa, caught penguins
and used them as bait. The sur
viving birds left the island and
have never returned, so the profit
able trade in penguin eggs and
guano was finished on Marcus. On
Dassen, another island near by,
more than half a million eggs and
enormous quantities of guano are
collected every season.
Egg-collecting starts in Janu
ary. When the mother bird is
robbed of an egg she will lay
another and keep on doing it until
she has laid 20 or so, instead of
the customary couple.
Although Dassen is usually fog
shrouded, no ship steaming by
sounds a foghorn—because the
penguins would not take kindly to
the noise.

There’s a Good Reason
Yon’re Constipated!
When there’s something wrong
with you, the first rule is: get at
the cause. If you are constipated,
don’t endure it first and “cure" It
afterward. Find out what’s giving
you the trouble.
Chances are it’s simple if you
eat the super-refined foods most
people do: meat, white bread,
potatoes. It’s likely you don’t get
enough “bulk." And “bulk”doesn’t
mean a lot of food. It’s a kind of
food that isn’t consumed in the
body, but leaves a soft "bulky”
mass in the Intestines and helps
a bowel movement.
If this is your trouble, you
should eat a natural "bulk” pro
ducing food-such a one as the
crunchy, toasted, ready-to-eat
cereal, Kellogg’s All-Bran. Eat it
often, drink plenty of water, and
"Join the Regulars.” All-Bran is
made by Kellogg’s in Battle Creek.
If your condition is chronic, it is
^wlse to consult a physician. > ^
