J J For the business girl who must work all day In an office the following would seem to be a sensible way of living and one which might prove suggestive to other girls who do likewise. For breakfast, fruit, eggs, toast and coffee. . For luncheon, soup or a sandwich, or some single dish, such as macaroni an i cheese, with bread and butter. The luncheon should be just enougu
to take the edge off the appetite, to keep one from feeling faint and too
hungry, not enough to draw the blood
to the stomach and make one sleepy
and sluggish.
Each person must judge for herself how much of a midday meal agrees

The main meal comes at night, it
one is very tired it la wise to rest a few minutes before eating. For dinner, a clear soup, roast beef.
browned potatoes, stewed tomatoes or
a green vegetable, a salad and a light dessert It is better not to eat such things as mince pie or plum pudding after too hearty a meal. Most girls consider tea or coffee a necessity, in which case they will have to have it, but they are lucky If they do not need it. J J J Mrs. W. W.
