VEGETABLE COMBINATIONS.
No matter how many times we refer to cook books, we usually get into certain habits in the cooking of vegetables. Either they are boiled and served with butter or white sauce, or they are escalloped or iried, and we use this set of methods over and quer again.
But like seeing old friends in new clothes, we enjoy once in awhile having our vegetables in new dress.
There is no need to go so far as to prepare mashed Irish potatoes in pink rosettes, but there are certain vegetable combinations, for exam ple, whereby we get a different blend of favour that almost amounts to a new taste.
Peas and carrots or peas and cauliflower aro often combined, so I shall skip over them and take up some recipes for less known assort-
ments.

MR. ÇOCHRAN'S VIEWS..
RETURN: TO ROTUNDITY. ORDERED.
Mr. Charles B. Cochran, the producer of revues, writes as fol lows to the Frening Standard:
I think you will be interested in this story of my negotiations with two dress-makers for the modern gowns in my new revue (Cochran's 1999 Revue, to be produced at the" Palace, Manchester, on March 5th, and at the London Pavilion on or about March 27th). Ons wants me to keep to the slim fgure when engaging my girls, and the other wants me to give the "solar plexus punch to the present-day skinny telegraph-pole young woman and bring about B return to that Protundity (back and front) which pleased pur fathers, our grand- fathers, and men of my own age in our younger days.
I am inclined to give myself whole-heartedly to the latter move- ment. I find the robust young women dance as well as the slim ones and have more stamina." It, sa is more than probable, I settle on this course, I shall have a luz- cheon served during the rehearsals which will be scientifically prepar- ed and provide all the elements which build up flesh tisanes, To my mind the present straight line of the modern girl is nothing like so artistic as the natural line of the woman of yesterday-the wo- man that men of my age can re- member dn the stage. (3r. Cochran was born in 1872). The ideal figure was expressed in the paintings of Rossetti: There you have beautiful nature curves. "I think most people will be with me: wo are all getting rather tired of these slender, wraith-like young women of to-day."
