Delmonlco Steak With Mushrooma
—Steak Is the most easily prepared of
•11 meats, but It may be utterly spoiled
with bad cooking. Never wash •
•teak or season It before It Is cooked,
•s those two things make It tough
»nd tasteless. A Delmonlco steak,
which Is the first cut before the por-
terhouse, Is a good choice for a little
home of two peraona. It should be at
least an Inch thick, and preferably
•n Inch and a half, for thickness Is
needed to retain the Juices. Scrape It
with a sharp knife If some cleaning
Is necessary, and then lay It on th®
hroller and prepare the mushrooms.
Peel these, take out the stems and
let them soak In cold salted water for
t«n minutes. Then put them In a
porcelain vessel—the little earthen-
ware casseroles are excellent cookers
for these delicate vegetables—put In

let them saute for twenty minutes.

If parents realized the fact that cof-

especially harmful to children, they
would doubtless hesitate before giving
the babies coffee to drink.
"When 1 was a child In my moth-
er s arms and first began to nibble
things at the table, mother used to
give me sips of coffee. As nty parents
used coffee exclusively at tneals i
never knew there was anything to
drink but coffee and water.
“And so 1 contracted the coffee
habit early. I remember when quite
young the continual use of coffee so
uffectcd my parents that they tried
roasting wheat and barley, then
ground It In the coffee mill, aa a sub-
stitute for coffee.
But It did not taste right and they
went hack to coffee again. That was
long before Postum was ever heard
of. I continued to use coffee until I
was 27. and when I got Into office
work, I began to have nervous spells.
Especially after breakfast I was so
nervous I could scarcely attend to my
correspondence.
"At night, after having coffee for
■upper. I could hardly sleep, and on
rising In the morning would feel weak
and nervous.
"A friend persuaded me to try
Postum. My wife and I did not like
it at first, but later when boiled good
and strong It wa* line Now we would
not give up Postum for the best coffee
Wo ever tasted.
I can now get good sleep, am free
from nervousness and headaches. I
recommend Postum to all coff. e drink-
