Fresh Peas

THE vision of helping cook

shell the peas, which the gardener had just gathered, brings back to my mind pleasant #nemories, The pods would some- times burst with a "pop," and there would le a perfect row of glistening globes in bright green uniform. Peas like these cook to perfection, but be- ware those which have lain in a shop for many days and have lost their lustre and are grey, and hard.

Separate Dish

THERE is no better way of eating freshly gathered pens than as a separate dish. Pens la francaise are excellent,

and their essence is not wasted, as when they are boiled in water. Put about 2 pints of shelled peas in casserole with the heart of a large lettuce, a few small pickling onions, It tab

Now's

the time, then, to try a new one which is unlike anything else you've ever used before because it's so thorough. It gets right down underneath, and while the good work is going on it is softening and smoothing the hundreds of thousands of little pores that make up your skin into a velvet-soft surface reqdy to receive your foundation make-up.

NEXT to oval, Immaculately filed nall-tips, a well-cared-for cuticle will do more to give you beautiful nails than anything, Cuticles have a horrid habit of splitting when you're not looking, that's why you must feed them and nourish then so that they form a perfect oval base to the nail without a break anywhere.

The thing to use is a new-highly refined oil which is applied with a brush every night until they react of their own accord by becoming soft and supple.

The nicest slips and cami-knickers are shaped to fit the figure, with brassiere tops that follow the line of the brassière beneath; the nicest cami-knickers are carefully and flatly shaped into the walit, and open wide at each leg.

Quite a few women who would adore to wear cami-knickers are un- happy about the crutch fastening. If it is too tight, it cuts; too loose, it hangs low and looks ugly.

They should look to the cule little garment over on the left. It has a bras top, fit into the waist with little groups of tucks,, then simply becomes ordinary knickers, silt up each side with hemstitch and em- broidery trims.

* The House Coat

Women who sit around at home a lot ought not to be without some sort of a house cont. It saves your clothes, it is comfortable, it is ex- traordinarily becoming, and how we managed without it all these years, I can't imagine. It is the legitimate follow-up of the lacy, frilly negligee which really called for a boudoir, hothouse flowers and a peach satin chaise longue.
