APPLE AND CELERY SALAD.
MRS. R. M. STOCKING.
One day at the house of a charming friend,
From dishes of dainty blue,
I ate something good which puzzled me much,
The secret I'll tell to you.
2. "This looks like salad, my dear," said I,
"T'is celery surely I see,
And mayonnaise yellow and thick and rich,
What may this rare flavor be."
3. "A firm spicy apple," she said with a smile,
"Cut into pieces like dice—
I used equal parts, with celery white,
And my salad was made in a trice."
