NANCY PAGE Picked Peaches Make
 a Fine Relish for Winter By Florence La Ganke

"Pickled peaches are so easy tu make and so easy to take during the winter months that it is strange
 more women d onot put them up,' Lois made this remark during a
 bridge game. Do you really think so, Lois? Isn't. it an awful nuis-
 ance to peel them, and how do you
 know when they are done?"
 Wait until we finish this rub Der and I'll tel you just how

 Really, she has the best collection of recipes I ever have seen." Here are the rules which Lois gave while the group slipped their tea and enjoyed the toasted mush- room sandwiches.
 "I choose small, fully rin+ peaches. Cling stones may be used in fact, one year when l bought some peaches thinking they were Ifree stones I discovered they were clings. I could not use them for caning, so I pickled them. They were a bit hard to separate from

0LORlFYING
 YOURSELF
By Alicia Hart
6I95I E7 NE1 SERVICE INC:

You can save money by manicur- ing your own finger nails, and the new complete manicure beauty boxes make the job so simple that your weekly manicure becomes a pleasure instead of dreaded or deal.
 Buy a box which contains every thing you need for Q complete manicure. It's much easier than having lot of separate boxes, for now and then one of them gets lost, and if your manicure isn't spoiled, your disposition certain ly is. Anyway, the boxes are so at tractive that they are an asset to your dressing table aside from the fact that they are so practical.
 You probably have a favorite brand of manicure preparations, but if you've failed to find one which suits you, experiment with a few until you do. Then buy a complete outfit of that brand.
 The box should contain emery boards, orange sticks, absorbent cotton, cuticle remover. polish and polish remover, nail white, and perhaps a dry polish besides.
 The newer boxes omit the cuti-. cle remover and give you mall liquid" which is a preparation containing oil, soap, substance which removes cuticle, and an ar1- tiseptic. The nail liquid comes in an attractive bottle together with a little metal container which has a rubber top with hole In the center.
 You pour some of the liquid | foi, after have filed and shaped the first nail, you put your finger into the hole (the rubber stretches to fit any finger and none of the liquid runs down on your hand) and let 1t soak until the next finger is done. Then you go back to the first finger, re- move the container and push back all the cuticle with an orange stick. Now place the container on the finger you have just finished and go on to the next.
 By the time your filing is com- pleted, each finger will be treated | for cuticle and you'll be ready to use the nail white and the polish. It's a time saver and it's just as economical as the "old-fashioned" cuticle remover. You don't have to buy a new container very often, |
 as the rubber on the top is the only thing which can wear out, and it is made of an excellent grade of rub Der. You simply buy refills for the nail liquid bottle.
 There are boxes of mail white strings" which can be purchased at any beauty parlor. They are cas- fer to use than the paste which you rub under your nails with an orange stick. The strings are about five inches long and are treated with a nail white preparation. You simply take one, soak it in warm
 water for a few seconds, fasten one
 end to something stationary. hold the other end with one hand, and
 rub back and forth on the string
 underneath the nails on the free
 hands. The process of using nall liquid and nail white strings is real lv intriguing, When you buy your next manicure box, see that it con
 tains both.

Cabbage is one Of the best par gains the home-maker can make, and if she exerts her skill as cook she can prepare this lowly vege- table in such fashion that it rivals the cultured caulit1ower.
 Actually cabbage is more val uable food than caulifiower. and, properly cooked, is more delicate ly favored than either caulif1ower or brussels sprouts.
 Always cook cabbage or any of its family in an uncovered pan. This prevents the forming of the gas which gives off the unpleasant odor so obnoxious to many per sons. Cooking it uncovered and for a short length of time also keeps it from becoming strong favored and unpalatable. Over cooking of cabbage causes loss of much food value and tends to make the vegetable difficult for some people to digest. Another point to keep in mind when cook ing cabbage is to put it on to cook | in actively boiling water to more than cover and then use as much of the water as possible when serv- ing it. Cabbage is heavy loser of minerals during the cooking process and the water naturally contains these constituents. The | cooking period is appreciably shortened if cabbage is finely shredded before cooking.
 However, one of the best ways to use cabbage is uncooked. It contains the necessary vitamins to a marked degree, but since they are very sensitive to heat some of them must be sacrificed when the vegetable is cooked. Raw cab bage is good source of the much-to-b be- desired minerals, too. | Food for Two Meals
 Since cabbage is so good both raw and cooked, one head will do duty for several meals in success sion if a little careful planning is done.
 When wanted in its raw state it must be very crisp and finely shredded. Try combining it with apples and nuts or celery or green peppers or grated carrots-one or
 all of them. It's excellent with
 grapefruit and shredded pine
 apple, too. Shredded cabbage by
 itself served with French dress

When a child has had an illness particularly where there has been temperature followed by long slow convalescence, there are many things to remember if that child is to get we'll properly.
 To all appearances he may seem perfectly well. He eats well, sleeps we'll, is a good color, thin perhaps, but full of his old pep. Out go the medicine bottles and thermom- eter, the nurses cot is put back h the attic-all the paraphernalia of the sick room is cleared out of sight. The doctor has said, T won't be back. Let him get down. stairs once a day, out in the sun a little, and live normally. Just be careful that he doesn't over do."
 With that the family throws off the restraint of the past few weeks, and forgets that Billy has his mother keeps an anxious eye on him, won't let him have pie, put on an extra sweater when he is outdoors, and makes him choco- late milk in between meals.
 Then, as Billy refutes all idea of being an invalid any longer by the way he tears around and plays banner lead and baseball and tag the watchful look fades from her eyes also and she, too, relaxes Thank goodness, her boy is well entirely we'll, and her careful vigilance is no longer necessary! After-effects Are Bad But a year later she wonder! how on earth it happens that tho school authorities have sent home | a slip with the recommendation that Billy's eyes be examined fo- glasses. And he cannot use hi | skates because his ankles twist he has had three bad sprains an; had to be taken to a foot special ist finally for supports. His heart the doctor says, is not what i should be, either, and she mus see that he has certain hours O. rest every day-no more violen | exercise for a while at least. What could have happened al at once? Why Billy was alway the healthfest, strongest boy on thu street! And all these specialist and bllls. now.
 It never enters her mind to coL meet up these new troubles witt | that illness her boy had so loni ago, but if someone were to tel her that it all came as a direc result of that time she might re member that when he was con valescing Billy read lying dow and often late at night when hi eyes could not stand it. that al those outdoor exercises were pre- mature and his foot muscles, stil weak from his sickness. wer greatly imposed upon and had no been able to stand the strain.

there is the ever popular sour cream dressing. The woman in the country with sour cream and cabbage always at hand need never fail to give her family their es- sential "protective" food.
 These suggestions may help you in planning to use 8 head of cab base to the best advantage.

 For the next days luncheon com bine any leftover fish with we'll crisped cabbage for a salad. Let cabbage stand in cold water for half an hour before using. This makes 1t deliciously crisp and tender. Drain thoroughly before combining with other ingredients.
 The next night peppers stuffed with cabbage and finely chopped meat provide an appetizing and nourishing dish.
 The last quarter or the nead ol cabbage is used in a vegetable soup. Carrots, onions and toma- toes blend their fiavors in savory soup that is truly delicious. The vegetables can be finely shredded and minced and served in the broth, making a thick full meal soup, or the whole can be strained and a clear soup served.
