Mf Worcestershire sauce, or a similar

clrHuls Of the chosen sea food cut into
uniform pieces, also tiny bits Of
pimento, about one tablespoonful, one
chopped hard cooked egg, and one
teaspoonful of minced parsley II liked.
II salt Goldfish is used, 1t should be
covered with cold water, brought to a
boil, then drained before adding 1t to
the sauce. Pour into the ramekins,
dust with fine stale bread crumbs, dot
with butter, place in a moderate oven,
and serve when you see the sauce be-
gin to bubble and the bread crumbs
brown.
The food to accompany ramekin
dishes depends upon the time you serve
them. Breakfast ramekins should be
preceded by fruit and cereal If liked,
and supported by toast, mullins, mar
malade. and coffee. For luncheon,
ramekin dishes may be followed by a
vegetable or fruit salad. For supper. a
salad is a good second course. If you
serve celery with the ramekin dish, you
may omit the salad and 60 direct to
the dessert.
To cook Goldfish in casserole, put
about two ounces of butter into an
earthenware casserole with a cover.
Melt, then add eupful Of water. Peel
a dozen small onions and put them in
the liquid with five or six good-sized
mushrooms cut into quarters. Season
with salt and pepper, and simmer for
about 20 minutes, or until the onions
are almost cooked. Stir into the sauce
two or three tablespoonful of tomato
sauce, or any other good vinegar sauce,
and add a Goldfish steak for each per-
son to be served, Simmering until the
fish is cooked.
To cook in individual caSseroles, slice
plenty Of ham from one Of those de-
hcious canned ready-to-eat hams. Make
a rich cream sauce and add to it some
yellow cheese to give q good flavor.
Into each casserole put a slice of toast
to At, then add a layer of ham and
cover with sauce. Put in a sliced hard
boiled egg, more ham, and finish with
sauce. Bake in a moderate oven for
about 20 minutes.
Important Flavorings.
An important secret Of cooking is
the use OF herbs for seasoning. The
next time you arc boiling beef for
pressing, just add two or three leaves
and notice the improvement. A little
dried marjoram added to a savory
Stufhng for veal or game gives new
flavor
Leeks, lima beans, vegetable marrow,
and pumpkin may all find their way
into soups with good results.
Tarragon chopped fine and added to
a salad makes delicious flavor, or
added to q white sauce to serve with
fish, broiled chicken, or rabbit, makes
q good change.
Sweet chervil, which belongs to the
parsley family but which is much
finer and less strong in taste, can be
chopped into a salad or added to green
peas in place Of mint.

Do you wash them with plenty of soap

Then do you dry them with immacu-

better to let the dishes dry themselves

worth while for all mothers to review
occasionally and to practice all the

Give the children plain, wholesome

tain terms, for this is the seat of honor
usually reserved for the older men and
women. AS in England, precedence is
shown by the seating arrangement at
the table, so In Germany the hostess
must know who Is to sit on the sofa,
and the decision is often complicated
by titles and ages.
Usually there is table In front Of
the sofa and on it a lace or en-
broidered cloth, set cornerwiSe. Exactly
in the middle Is q vase Of flowers or
an ornament and a few fine books.

balanced meals become that to obtain
the required proportions the modern
hostess makes use of delicious and APP
petizing tidbitS much in the same way
that the clever woman uses dainty, lux
urious or smart accessories, such as
jewelry. gloves. bags and shoes.
Particularly now, when frosty winds
and coal-laden dust chap and dry the
skin, 1t is a good thing to remember
that many remedial food elements can
be conveniently taken in the form OF
compact little additions to almost every
meal
Olives sweet peppers. cheese, raisins
and nuts are perhaps the most flexible
of the food accessories, lending them
selves to many uses. All are valuable
in oil content.
How do they help the dry skin?
Why, most naturally. The mild laxa-
tive tendency of the oil content is di-
rectly beneficial in clearing the skin;
peppers, cheese and olives supplies
nourishment to the tissues and this
offsets the tendency to dryness. A
we'll nourished skin seldom becomes too
dry.
Raisins, nuts and cheese are so rich
in protein value as to be almost inter-
changeable with meat. They are great
energy producers as we'll. A hanolOl OF
nuts or raisins eaten slowly will pro-
duce an almost instant pickup" in
energy Many business men and women
keep them at hand for such a purpose.
All of these good foods are especially
delicious at this time Of the year.
Olives always intrigue one. Serve them
at luncheon and dinner. They are
charmingly decorative and consequently
make a nice accompaniment for almost
every salad and sandwich.
Nuts and raisins seem naturally to
go hand in hand-perhaps from child
hood memories of Christmas stockings.
They combine deliciously in cakes, pud-
dings and sandwich spreads and are
always welcome adjuncts to the demi-
tasse. especially II you follow the COM
Portable custom of serving your after
dinner coffee In the living room.
These are but a few suggestions to
help you to see really big possibilities
in rather small foods. Learn to use
them artfully, and you will not only
broaden your selection Of foods that are
favorable to health and beauty. but
you will also add variety and spice to
the table.

was in more cheerful mind today
and trading in the stock market, while
in small volume, was mostly at higher
prices. Probably the gains. such as
they were, represented taking in OF
short contracts, but at least it was
significant that there was no renewal
of the pressure which figured SO largely
in the preceding session.
Traders were impressed with the eau
tious references in the weekly business
reviews to signs of improvement. They
were pleased by the optimistic reports
from the motor manufacturing centers
and they even had hopes of something
better to come from the oil industry
Against these favorable considerations
the probabilities of more dividend re-
auctions modified enthusiasm toward
the market and tended to restrict opera
tions.
The utilities led in the rally today, as
they have SO often done of late. Con-
solidated Gas, Public Service of New
Jersey United Corporation and Stand
ard Gas g. Electric all worked higher
under the same sponsorship as during
American Telephone g. Telegraph was
heavy, which was rather surprising and
without explanation American Water
Works was another laggard, and the
movement in general was not uniform
Motor stocks were very firm, espe-

only about a point and a half under
the best of the year. The way in which
General Motors has held up has been
one of the features of the market all
during the reaction.

did better, and there was some indi-
cation of an awakening of interest in
the merchandising shares, particularly
Woolworth. Among specialties, Drug

while Allied Chemical, ]. I. Case and
Eastman Kodak benefited from the

Central dividend seemed to have worn

which will afford another test Of the
market position.
