Most fall fruit is sweet and re

such as this, it will even seem to
Lynn Says
Popular Choice: You'll like
fried chicken if it's dipped in
cornflakes instead of bread
crumbs for a change.
Cottage cheese molds nicely
when mixed with garden green
onions, radishes, diced green pep
per and seasonings. Serve on
lettuce for a luncheon treat.
Bread Pudding: Try it with
brown sugar instead of white for
a different touch. If you make it
plain with raisins, try a lemon
custard sauce.
Scrambled Eggs on the menu?
Serve with jelly, sauteed chicken
livers or french fried shrimp. All
are combinations hard to beat.
Au gratin vegetables: Cabbage,
cauliflower, potatoes and toma
toes. For a topping try crushed
cereal like cornflakes with butter
and melted cheese.

to have confided, was being exam

"Can you repeat the exact words
In which the prisoner confessed to
taking the pig?" asked the prose

"He said, «x. took the pig."
The judge tried to simplify the
question: "Did the accused say, 'He
took the pig,' or 'I took the pig'?"
"Oh, your honor, he said he took
it. Your honor's name wasn't even
mentioned."
