Lettuce Salad

Choose for this the crisp center of the lettuce. Wash it, dry it well, pull to pieces or cut it into four or six sections, and arrange it in a salad-bowl. Pour over the center of the dish any dressing preferred. Mayonnaise is frequently used, but with a heavy dinner the French dressing is to be preferred to any other. Russian dressing is very much used.

The following vegetables may be used instead of lettuce: endive, peppergrass, watercress, nasturtium blossoms, sorrel, dandelion, escarole, and romaine.
