English Boiled Cabbage.

Cut a small cabbage into quarters,

away the core: wash thoroughly in
two waters; place 1t in a colander
and let 1t drain while large Kettle
Of water II coming to q boil. When
the water is boiling very fast put
in the cabbage. Add one tablespoon
full of salt and one seant tablespoonful
of baking soda. AS soon as it comes
back to the boiling point remove the
cover and push the cabbage down
into the water from time to time.
The secret of success is to have
rapid boiling, plenty of water. plenty
of room and the cover off. 1t will

THE PROFILE.
AS have said before occasionally,
there is very little that can be done
to improve the actual features which
form the profile. But there IL great
deal that can be done to make the
side face apparently better looking
by the style in which the hair Is az
ranged.
If you have a very low forehead.
the hair should either be brushed
directly back from the face or else
it should be pulled down quite 70 t ne
most of the forehead and the other
completely conceals it. If you have
very high forehead. you will have
to bring the hair all the way down
to the eyebrows or else bring it partly
down. for a high forehead is never
becoming to any woman. II you have
a slop;ng forehead. the hair will also
conceal this.
If you have hollow cheeks or an In
significant nose. the hair should De
brought out over the ears and huned
little out on the cheeks. If you
have very large nose the hair should
be brought over the cheeks also. but
not to such an extent. 1t is only
very well formed nose that can stand
a severe style of hair dressing.
The chin always plays an important
part in the appearance of the profile:
A good line can be made from bad
one in the case of receding chin. II
the knot of the hair is placed very
n I'll uu end on the back of the head.
In fact, if the profile is at all imper-
feet it will be greatly improved with
the hair done in this fashion. good
nrofile looks well no matter how the
hair is done. more youthful eneet
will be obtained in this case II the
knot of the hair is placed on line
level with the nose.

A home is not merely house; ii is an

One should be happy there. and be COM

loveliest homes in the world. At the
same time a home is not necessarily
happy because it Is the house of pow
erty. as some persons would have us be-
