This tea trolley is easy to make, and lakes, 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, and a narrow beading was added to the edges of the shelves.

Good Cooking By Ambrose Heath

Kidneys

THERE are few luncheon or

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

Italian Stow

A nice savoury disti. Cut a pound of beef kidney Into alices half an inch thick, take out the core, dip the slices in a mixture of a tablespoonful of flour, half a teaspoonful of salt and a quarter of a teaspoonful of pepper and then. fry them alowly for about 20 minutes in some dripping which you have hoated, 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

pan.

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 sauce with salt, pepper if necessary, a wineginssful of sherry if possi- ble and half a dozen bottled mushrooms cut in quarters.

Sautes

a

Sheep's kidneys for this dish. Blanch the kidneys by putting them in boiling water for 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, udd some good brown sauce, flavour it with a little sherry if you wish, senson it with salt and pepper and let it heat through without bolling. 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 will wear a veil. Not the little eye veil, or the absurd skyward frill of net that, last year, veiled nothing at all: veils are to dangle at chin level or be tied to stretch across 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 psích about the size of half a crown in. the region of the nose. Lipsticks will have to be used carefully. On a windy day a long vell underingly 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 notes or receding chins were those veils tied at the nape of the neck!

There was a year, I remember, when we were vells so heavily patterned that it was difficult 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 coats and skirts and our boaters balanced on bunches of hair and held on by three long hat-pins. Oculists raved, "of courag but sunburn was so unfashionable!

9. Not accessarity.

10. Perfectly dry.

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

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

13. No-they should always be cut with scissors. 14. Never cut them; life them of the nall with an arange stick,

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

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

not, except in a wind, touch the skin at all.

But the vell, as a veil, belongs to the gentle art of flirtation. Will it bring back a rovival of the fan?
