For fish stuffing, I like to use plenty of butter, parsley and lemon juice besides the salt and pepper. 1 generally omit onion, although if you are a devotee of this particular flavour, you may use it discreetly. Chopped pickle is another good ad- dition.

One of the easiest and best ways to prepare fish is, by what is known as the Spencer method. For this the fish fillets are dipped in milk, then in fine crumbs or rolled cornflakes and sprinkled with oil or melted but- ter before baking in a hot oven for ten minutes.

Housewives need no longer use the excuse that they have no time · for keep-fit exercisos. That is if they care to follow the example of Peaches Weston, the cabaret star, who keeps her limbs supple by rhythmic exercises as she carries out her household duties. Naturally the exercises are not easy-but they are certainly an idea for those busy housewives who say they have no time for such things. Photo shows things looking a bit topsy-turty when she goes to the refri- gerator-but she says its good for the figure.
