CABBAGE.

The formal dinner may include in its menu delicate asparagus tips broccoli or cauliflower, tiny beets." green string beans of the minuscule and expensive variety, and arti- chokes, but when has the cabbage been allowed to bo associated in people's minds with glass center- pieces and cut flowers! Its proto- type, the brussel sprout, daintier in size but with not so good a favour, has no trouble in finding its way to a banquet table; but the lowly cabbage never, -ti

The cabbage should be soft, but must not fall apart, and should have a glossy, bluish red colour. Garnish with glazed cheat- auta and sausage, too, if you like.

Nevertheless, cabbage has its place. With game, for example, red cabbage with chestnuts is an accepted accompaniment,

I shall give the recipe, and follow with several others for preparing cabbage in ways that should lift it out of the "home dinner" class.

Remove the outer leaves, the veins and the stalk, from a head of red cabbage, divide the cabbage in half, and shred fine. Place the cab bage in a colander over a pan, and pour boiling water over the cab- bage, letting it stand over the pan" for ten or fifteen minutes. Chop a large onion, and stew in some bot fat with two teaspoons of sugar until it is a gold colour. Add the cabbage, a peeled and cored apple cut in quarters, salt, black pepper, half a cup of vinegar and water mixed; and several cloves stuck in 3 piece of onion. Stew until the cabbage in soft, adding beef broth occasionally, When it is nearly done, dust some flour over the cab-

As garnishing for stewed tongue or pot roast, stuffed cabbage rolls braised, are delicious. Remove the Enest leaves from the cabbage, boil in salted water for two minutes, drain and lay aside. Stew a finely chopped onion in two tablespoons butter or chicken fat, add the rest of "the cabbage, chopped fine, and pepper and salt, and stew until a gold colour. When cool, pat semo of the stewed cabbage into the centre of each cabbage leaf, fold the leaves over first from the two long sides and then from the two ends, like a pocket roll, covering the staffing completely. Tie the rolls in soft cord and stew in chicken fat with a scant teaspoon of sugar until tender and light brown. Re- move the cord before serving.

TWO SMART SCHOOL FROCKS.

A little sports dress designed to satisfy the demands of young girls who like to wear grown- up styles. The skirt shows youthful fulness in the box- mailed sides. The bodice has" applied bands to finish the V-shaped neck, tucked shoulders, and trimming pieces at each side, just above the waistline. It combines printed and plain wool jersey and it alto, smart made of wool crepe in navy blue with bright red contrast and suede belt.

It's popular because it is quite as smart as it is practical, in patterned wool jersey in lovely soft brown tones, with collar. and cuffs of pluin tan jersey, pipel in brown grosgrain rib- bon, that it repented in scarf. tie. A brown" suede belt is placed at the waistline. The skirt, is kilted at either side and attached to a camisole bodice. Feather-weight tweed, woul crepe, flannel in geometric print, homespun, linen, velve teen, printed rayon velvet, silk crepe, and chambray are all suitable.

Why DO women try to squeeze their feet into shoes two sizes too smal for them! They can't think that it looks well to have their feet bulging over the sides of the shoes, to hobble along miserably, and to look haggard and drawn and yet they go on doing it.

Even if you have size ten feet they will look better and you will be generally more attractive if you buy size ten shoes rather than size six or seven. Your feet are com fortable, it naturally into the shoes, and you walk with ease and possibly grace. At any rate, your mind isn't constantly on your feet and you are free to enjoy yourself.

Buying very cheap shoes is the poorest economy I know of. You will eventually spend a great deal of money on a foot specialist as well as many painful and unhappy hours, if you don't buy well-fitting shoes that support the feet properly.
