The vegetables used in salad are:  Beet-root, onions, potatoes, cabbage, lettuce, celery, cucumbers, lentils, haricots, winter cress, peas, French beans, radish, cauliflower—­all these may be used judiciously in salad, if properly seasoned, according to the following directions.

Chervil is a delicious salad herb, invariably found in all salads prepared by a French gourmet.  No man can be a true epicure who is unfamiliar with this excellent herb.  It may be procured from the vegetable stands at Fulton and Washington markets the year round.  Its leaves resemble parsley, but are more divided, and a few of them added to a breakfast salad give a delightful flavor.

Chervil Vinegar.—­A few drops of this vinegar added to fish sauces or salads is excellent, and well repays the little trouble taken in its preparation.  Half fill a bottle with fresh or dry chervil leaves; fill the bottle with good vinegar and heat it gently by placing it in warm water, which bring to boiling point; remove from the fire; when cool cork, and in two weeks it will be ready for use.
