There’s ■ bit of Jiggt in every
man. Can’t lay much about the
ability of males to tolerate nagging
Maggies because we don’t think
there are any wives like that now-
a-days, but where cbrittd beef and
cabbage are concemed-^that’s where
ev::-y man’s a Jigga.
Unlike the henpecked cartoon
chcvacter, however, the modem
husband devours bis corned beef
and cabbage at home, where it has
been prepared and cooked to ' a
piquant savor by Ae one and only
“little woman.” If she makes it in
the thrift cooker of her Hotpoint
1. Wash cabbage and cut down
from the top through the center,
making 4 or 6 “petds” 'radiating
from the-lower end. 2. In the cen
ter place the ,comed beef, uncut, and
place cabbage on thrift cooker
rack. 3. Place 1 cup water in cook
er, then lower rack in cooker, let
ting the “legs” serve as handles;
cover. High heat until steam flows
freely from vent. Low heat to cook.
Time: 4Sminutes.
And here is the way to make
Chocolate Puff Pudding. Since it

that the project this year will

helpful to all of us.
I I am a aO-year-oM girl and, Uke
moBt young ^Is, cannot afford ex
pensive beauty treatments and
therefore must resort to simpler
methods. Xhe following aia « few
of my sigiplo seerets:
No one can gansttly expect to
cure and maintain that luxurlotu
hair, that w« all love, without a
healthy scalp. The acalp must
deas so that tbe
tain aiir and siu^lnK^’''^ ^
and a thorough massage with the
fingw tips re^Uitfia the circq}atlon
of the blood, giving the' scalp^ a
healthy color. This also removea
the crust over the scalp formed by
dust and perspiration. I giva my
hair a vigorous brushing every sight
to keep'tr alive tad active and to
disperse ezcesr dust acquired dui^
ing the day.- A good shampoo, of
course. Is necessary' at least every
two weeks.
A soft, clear, healthy complexion
is Just as easily acqtilred. Tbe
physical and mental condition ol
the 'ltody has much -to do with' it.
Worry and sluggishness retard all
progress to beauty. Daily walks,
wect posture,, hot baths add rub
downs, complete relaxations, and
proper food comhtoe to keep the
body lit Now Bhd then' In yoor
leisure moments tie a t&w^ arciund

down to the adges of the bowl, fonn>

open permitting all dirt and grime
to be removed with a soft cloth and
good soSpi. Oold Water dashed on
the faca automatically closes the
pores, protecting it against tbe

apply a faca lotloQ' or a thin layer
