HAM SOUFFLE

HIS is much easier to make than it sounds. It is much improved

by the addition of a generous amount of paprika pepper.

Mako a white sauce with two ounces of butter, an ounce of flour and a gili of milk. When cool, season with salt, pepper and a pinch of nut- meg and add two yolks of egg. Pound half a pound of cooked-lean, minced ham, add it to the sauce and pass through a wire sleve,

Whisk the whites of the eggs very stily, adding a third if you can and fold them lightly into the sieved mix- ture. Put the mixture into a pre- pared souffle ease and steam gently. for an hour, Or you can bake the souffle if you wish, but that will take only about half the time.

1. Astringent.

Space Saver:

This ten trolley is easy to make, and takes up no room. Originally it was an ordinary cupboard with three shelves inside..

Shelves were taken out and put on four uprights with rubber castors,jand' a narrow beading was added to the edges of the shelves.

In a one-room flat the trolley can be kept inside the hollow head at a divan ...as in sketch.

Good Cooking By Ambrose Heath

Kidneys

THERE are few luncheon or

aupper dishes that can beat a couple of grilled sheep's kidneys; but we cannot eat grilled or fried kidneys for ever! Here are a few recipes which readers can add to their kidney collcations. First ono for beef kidney.

-Italian Stow

A nice savoury »dlah. Cut # pound of beef kidney jato slices half an inch thick, tako out the core, dip the slices in n mixture of a tablespoonful of four, half a teaspoonful of salt and a quarter of a teaspoonful of pepper and then fry them slowly for about 20 minutes In some dripping which you have heated, but not too much, in a frying-pan.

With them fry a small finely chopped onion and while doing so put a plate or lid over the

nan.

Now make a brown roux with an ounce and a half of butter and the same amount of flour in another pan, stir in a pint of water or stock and simmer for 20 minutes or more. Drain the slices of kidney from the drip- ping and put them into the Baute with salt, pepper if necessary, A wineglassful of sherry if possi ble and half 1 dozen bottled mushrooms cut in quarters,

-Sautee

Sheep's kidneys for this dish. Blanch the kidneys by putting them in boiling water for a couple of minutes, then drain them, dry them, core them and cut them in slices. Now fry a finely chopped shallot or small onion in an ounce of butter, add the sliced kidneys and toss them in the fat for three or four minutes.

Drain off the butter, add some good brown sauce, flavour it with a little sherry if you wish, season it with salt and pepper and let it heat through without boiling. Serve very hot, with sippets of toast or fried bread,

VEILS AGAIN? -

By a Woman Aged Sixty

THIS year, I am told, every woman with pretensions to chic THIS

will wear a veil. Not the little eye veil, or the absurd skyward frill of net that, last year, veiled nothing at all: velis are to dangle at chin level or be tied to stretch neroas the tip of the nose.

I wonder if the girl of to-day will contrive to wear these with fewer disasters than we did in my youth.

She will certainly have to be careful with her make-up. Powders are less crude than they were in those days, but they will still, I imagine, be apt to give a dusty appearance to a patch about the size of half a crown in the region of the nose. Lipsticks will have to be used carefully. On a windy day long veil unerringly glues itself to the mouth.

The girl with scanty lashes will have an advantage over her sister with film star eye-lashes: these were a perpetual irritation when a veil was worn with a small hat. And how unkind to women with long, sharp noses or receding china were those velis tied at the nape of the neck!

There was a year, I remember, when we wore vells so heavily patterned that it was dimeult to see and quite Impossible to read through them. We not only wore them in London but, in white, when we went "Up the river" in our white serge coals and skirts and our boaters balanced on bunches of hair and held on by three long hat-pins. Oculists raved, of course, but sunburn was so unfashionable!

than your skin tone, and should be dusted on thickly, but all discreetly dropped to the edge of the stiffened, fluted veil that will'

We are not going to see these monstrosities again. Patterns there are,

then brushed of.

10. Perfecily dry.

11. Should be applied with the finger tips after ercam rouge.

12. By putting a little eye shadow on the outside corners of the lds.

13. No-they should always be cut with scissora, 14. Never cut them; lift them of the nail with an

orange stick.

15. After varnishing them.

16. Nails should be quite dry; two thin conts of varnish will last longer than one full one.

17. By rubbing a little vaseline or skin food on. them morning and evening,

18. Take all make-up off your face, then dab your skin with a little astringent.
