I frankly do not want them to have to work for their living, but, on the other hand, I realise the wrong I may be doing them if cir- cumstances should make it neces sary for them to work and they find themselves quite unprepared.

Therefore I shall give them the kind of education which develops, character and personality on broad, general lines, which fosters self dependence quietly and naturally without making it the bumptions, aggressive thing which so often passes as independence in young women to-day.

There are no Chasseur fish dishes. Kidneys come next on the list. They are cut into slices, sautéd, and the juice moistened with white wine and then with Chasseur sauce. They are served in a timbale with chopped parsley over them. Tour- nedoa and noisettes are "chasseur- ed" when they are saulté-d, the juice inoistaned with white wine, as above, and the sauce added.

Sautés, whether of chicken, pheasant, lamb, or veal, when they are la Chasseur, have their juice moistened with white wine, a drop of brandy, minced mushrooms, chopped, shallate, and half-glaze sauce flavoured with tomato. This sauce is poured over the pieces, and the whole is sprinkled lightly with fines herbes.

Glass stoppers hare obstinate habit of sticking, and no amount of twisting with the fingers will loosen them, but hera is a hint that will help you,

Rub, little salad oil round the stopper where it enters the mouth of the bot- tle or jar, then warm it in front of the fire-do this with care, because if it gets too hot it will crack.

When it is warm you will - find that in most cases the stopper can be extracted without any further trouble, but occasionally a very per- sistent one will require gent- piece of wood--this will complete its surrender.
