clothes, what I want to get him is
something useful and at the same time
something he can injoy, ma said, and

NANCY PACE
Baby Ann Is Two
Years Old.
BY FLORENCE LA GANKE.

Little Ann Miller was years old.
She didn't know what birthday meant
but even so, her mother planned to
celebrate the day-but not by giving
a birthday party. She and Nancy felt
alike on that subject. Birthday parties
for small children usually result in di
gestive upsets, temper tantrums and
family jealousy. Mother feels she must
invite the cousins who vary in ages,
usually from to 10 or IL years
of age. There are no games which
can hold the interest of such diversely
aged children. And there are no games
to hold the attention Of group of two
or three year olds.
Consequently there are tears and

spawn of other fish are their daily diet.
They go poking their noses into every
crevice and Granny, they scare the wits
out of the little fish and devour them
by the thousand. With needlelike teeth
set in bands, they are vicious hunters.
When grown the eel is about yard
long, although under very favorable
conditions he has become much longer
and exceedingly portly.
The flesh of the eel is very tender
and oily. It has an acceptable flavor,
said to be like chicken. Tons of the
meat are consumed each year, and the
total value runs well into a million
dollars.

Cabbage, new head, medium

about two quarts; butter, four
tablespoons.
SERVES 4 OR PORTIONS.
Remove outside leaves Of a new
green cabbage, shred or cut into
thin slices. Place in an uncov-
cred pan in the boiling water.
Or, better, use a small quantity
of water and let it become en-
tirely absorbed in the cooking
period, but boiling in much water
will remove any strong taste. To
the cooked cabbage, which is
drained. or from which all water
has been cooked away, add the
butter and stir until cabbage is
well coated. Young cabbage
should cook in 8 to 10 minutes
