PUREE OF TAPIOCA This is a good soup, nourishing as well as appetising, and most children like the tapioca “balls” in it. Soak a cupful of small tapioca overnight and next day let it simmer gently in a quart of soup stock—white—until it is clear. This usually takes a little over half an hour. Add to it a quart of milk, and thicken with a tablespoonful of flour. Season with pepper and salt, and it is ready to serve almost immediately. YOU MUST HAVE SUNSHINE A woman's work (indoors usually) calls for respite at least once a year (and that isn't often enough), when the chief object should be TO GET INTO THE SUNSHINE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, because sunshine contains a vitamin most necessary to life. There is no need to associate sunshine with sunburn and a skinned nose, because de Maunay’s No. 77 Cream, 2s Gd, and No. 77 Complexion Powder, 2s 6d., are in themselves a perfect protection to the skin, and a help in maintaining a youthful appearance. These are sponsored by Sharland and Co.. Ltd., Auckland and Wellington, and obtainable at all chemists and toilet departments. RUTH.
