A glut In the strawberry market is the prediction of fruit dealers In nearly ail c tlons of the country. Reports from the growers of berries in Virginia. Delaware and New Jersey Indicate that the coming crop will be better than for many season and show that a larger acreage has len devoted to the fruit. It ts predicted that lovers of this succulent frutt In many north ern cities will be able to eat all the good berries they want at cents a quart, or perhaps S. To suggest that some persons cannot eat the raw strawberry as it curnea from the garden without stomach distress may seem almost unpatriotic, for every American thinks It a patriotic duty to eat strawber ries whether they "agree" with him or not. It Is a fact, however, that many persons cannot cat theny without discomfort. The full enjoyment of this delicious berry is dented to thousands whoxe stomachs do not take kindly to1 the peculiar acid and (Tie numberless little aeeds which it con tains. For these persons the soggy white flour dough or "shortcake" makes a bud matter even worse. Almost any persoa whose stomsch has not gone out of busi ness entirely can cat straw oemcs un.l Shredded Wheat Biscuit with perfect safety and fullest enjoyment. The li-st way to prepare them is to heat the tisi uit In an oven until the shreds are crisp, then cm.-Ut a cavity in fl.e top of the biscuit and fill this with the berries In their own Juices. ten pour mtlk or crfant over it and sweeten to sjit the taste. ' There is some thing about the porous shreds that neu tralizes tho fr'ilt acid and the combination makes a mojt wholesome and delicious dish, more easily digested and much mora nutritious than the ordinary shortcake. Yoj can make the same wholesome com bination with raspberries or any kind of freeh fruit. A favorite summer noonday dish at the Union League club of Chicug t is made by partly fillinit a small liowl wi'.h red raspberries, then covering with a layer of Shredded Wheat crumbs (made by crush ing two crisp biscuits in the hanili. tl.il adding a little cream and sugar. Such a, lunch is wholesome and easily digested. The Shredd. 1 Wheat Itself contains moro real nutriment than meat or tg and corn much less, while the fruit adds to it health, fulness and palatability.
