Roast Potatoes.
Select those of uniform size, and roast in a moderate oven until soft. Wipe, and wrap in a napkin, spread upon a flat dish.
Scalloped Cabbage.
When your beef has begun to boil fairly, put in a firm white cabbage, from which you have stripped the outer leaves. Cook in the boiling pot-liquor until tender. Take out, quarter, and let it cool rapidly. When quite cold, chop; stir in pepper and salt, and put into a greased bake-dish. Pour over it half a cupful of soup-stock; sift crumbs thickly on the top, and bake, covered, half an hour, or until very hot throughout; then brown.
