How to Cook Vegetables.

Vegetables should always be boiled in
plenty of waterfall. that is. except peas.
By this means any unpleasantness of flavor
Is carried off.
Where vegetables are known to be less
digestible than others 1t Is a good plan to
parboil them; then, having poured away
the first water. boil them again In a fresh
supply.
The time for boiling vegetables depends,
Of course, upon their freshness and size.
All greens, such as cabbages, etc, are
much improved by being boiled with a lit
tie carbonate of soda.
Soda should not however, be used in the
case of broccoli or caulifower which, by
the way. requires very careful boiling, or
its appearance gets spoiled.
Tomatoes are specially good for dyspep-
sia, and lentils are not only most nourish-
ing. but most easily cooked and digested.
Potatoes should always be boiled in a
saucepan specially kept for them. If the
pan Is used for any other vegetables, they
will become discolored
They are best when boiled in their skins.
When peeled, they lose their flavor and the
salt. which pass out into the water They
should be all of a size, whether large or
small
Cold turnips, greens or spinach can be
heated by putting them in a basin and
placing them in a saucepan Of boiling wa
ter over the fire. Put on the lid and steam
till warmed through.
Another method of heating cold broccoli
etc. is to mince the greens or spinach very
then place them on raShers of fried bacon
with poached eggs on the top. This makes
a very appetizing dish.
Serve vegetables directly they are done
They should not be allowed to remain in
the water for moment after they have
once been boiled

kingdom it should be equally punishable
crime. The anilne dyes ugly in them
selves, and at the start what beauty they
do possess soon fades, leaving behind a
muddy. dirty color. So expert were the alb
original women In the weaving of textiles
that not a stitch has been added by our
modern civilization. Machinery has simply
been applied to meet the enormous demands
of the trade. Necessity was the Indian
woman's mother of invention. While the
men were fishing and hunting she had to
devise something in which to cook the
food. So she went to nature for her ma
terials, and the deft way In which she has
handled these gifts has been the wonder of
centuries Utensils were woven in which
water could be carried and food cooked
over a fire. An Indian girl has made a
water carrier so beautiful in shape and de-
sign that collector Of basketry has paid
81. 800 for 1t.
All the Indian work is symbolic. Some
meal plaques have been made by them
which depict the creation of the world
that is. the Indians idea of that event.
Ramona the heroine of Helen Hunt Jack
sons romance Of that name. symbolizes
her life in basketry. The design on her
basket representing a star ascending posi-
bly, symboliZes the spirit of Allessandro.
who, though dead to her In this world,
mains the guiding star of her life. How
fascinating and instructive would be
study of this raffia work! But to try to I'M
derstand the Indian meaning without the
Interpretation of the maker would be
very difficult task.
Feeble Minded Learn It.
Raff1a work has been very successfully
taught in institutions for the feeble minded,
and, although 1t does not yield much of an
artistic result. the pleasure and profit to
these poor imbeciles have been great II
one becomes an expert in weaving raffia or
rush, many attractive and useful presents
can be made for Christmas. Nowadays
the holiday present is not the useless little
nothing with Merry Christmas daubed
over 1t, but useful gift which preserves
the name of the giver In the mind. Es-
pecially priced would be a basket made by
the donor. A sweet grass basket to hold
a pair of scissors would be nice little re-
membrance for the woman who is contin-
uaily wondering where her scissors are. 1t
looks like an old-fashioned hair receiver
with two pockets and may be hung up or
carried on the wrist.
A pretty receptacle in which to keep knit
ting is a crescent shaped basket on
stand, the wide opening admitting Of the
taking out of the needles in comfortable
manner. A lingerie basket in raffia Is a
new development in this line. Picture
frames. hampers, and scrapbaskets are al
ways useful.
Like every other kind Of successful work.
this raffla weaving involves patience and
perseverance before perfection can be at
tanned but the woman who persists will be
rewarded abundantiy in health, happiness
and artistic possessions.

there is any cure after one is grown. If a
baby's ears stand out from the head the
defect may be remedied by binding the ears
to the head by means Of cap or bandage
worn at night.
To make cold cream for the toilet melt
together one ounce Of white wax and sper-
maceti, adding four ounces oil OF almonds.
Stir this constantly while 1t is cooling. If
you want 1t colored delicate pink. buy at
the chemists a colored powder-the kind
used in the kitchen for decorating icing for
cake. That is perfectly harmless; the least
bit taken up on the point of a pin colors 4
quantity of cold cream.

A Charming Gown for Walking.

A gown lately designed for winter wear
Is In soft tweed in the fashionable mixture
of blue and green. The bodice is made
with Russian blouse fronts and a pretty
waistband consisting of plain dark blue
cloth with small applique points of plain
dark green cloth braided in black and gold.
Below this band there are curved basques
cut In quite a novel fashion, while both
skirt and bodice are trimmed effectively
with straps of green cloth held in place by
small green buttons. The sleeves are made
in wide bell shape. the fullness of the
material being caught in with strap of
green cloth and fastened with gold buttons.

II is extraordinary how smart women are

even upon our climate. Taffeta, too, still

A Skirt Supporter.

A new skirt and blouse grip enables one
to fasten the skirt and blouse in such a
way that there is no fear of either getting
out OF place. You buckle the waistband
over your blouse, taking care that the
small claws are placed inward. The skirt
band Is then brought over the grip, when
both skirt and blouse are fixed in perfect
position.

Before and After

The woman ne married was not
In the least what his fancy depicted.
But ne was content with his lot
And didn't seem badly afflicted.
He thought OF connubial life
Ia way that was purely ideal
But later discovered his wife
Was most unmlstakabiy real
She lost all her fondness for walks.
Where the moonlight its soft shadow
scatters
And all those imagined sweet talks
Were entirely on practical matters.
No scorn had she now for base pelf
She ate three square meals without trou-
bic
And wanted a chair 20 herself.
Declining with him TO sit double.
In fancy he sat as she played
And sung soft and low in the twilight:
Instead she now pulled down the shade
And turned up the gas TO a high light
The poets together they planned
To read, while the marriage was pend
ing.
Now seldom or never were scanned:
lie smokes. and she sat L her mendinR
Fond visions, How softly they fade
Into gray from their tints bright and
rosyi
And poems OF life we see made
Into something undoubtedly prosy.
But none OF this made the man sore.
Indeed, he'd no cause for detection.
For she made all the dresses she wore
And cooked pork and beans 70 perfec-
