COOKING CORNER International foods popular in Israel By SUSAN DELIGHT Foods served in Israel are just as international as are. foods to be found in this coun- try, says Maurice Mizrahi, who came to this country from Tel Aviv in 1961. . "It's because there is such a . flow of immigration to Isra- el," he explained. Mizrahi, who cooks "for re- laxation,".says his own brand of cuisine reflects the Many countries where he has lived, including Egypt, Syria and. Lebanon, . •Y 1 S P)Vl �rr i contributes to the ,household's, international cuisine with what she calls "plain midwestern food."' "I'm just a girl from' Kan- sas," she said. "I cook plain food of the plains." The couple met three years ago when Mizrahi, then asso- ciated with a business ma- chine firm, went to the Unity church where his wife works as a secretary to repair a nia- chine. The Mizrahis now own a specialty gourmet coffee shop, "Coffees of the World," on the West Coast. In a visit to their little fra- grant - with - coffees - and - spices shop, I sampled some of Mizrahi's best .culinary ef- forts and ' tried to transcribe some . of his recipes. The latter was not easy for his directions were of the "add a pinch of this and a handful �f that" variety.

BE CRAFTY Hanging herb brightens kitchen By ALICE MORRELL My column today deals with a problem area in our kitchen and how we solved it. We A, have a Pullman -type kitchen, a long, narrow one. Over the kitchen sink was our problem spot -- a blank space surrounded by the usual cabi- nets on both sides and a cov- ered light fixture above. The area measures 93/4 ' inches across and 31 inches 'high. We thought of many ways to treat this area, but none seemed as good as a hanging herb gar- den. To make ours we used soft ▪ pine board cut 93/4 inches long. 1 decorated this board by making a one -inch wide pencil line border, on the line 1 used a bottle top as a guide to draw an evenly spaced scalloped pencil line border ( Fig. 1). When all lines were evenly drawn, I went over them with a brown felt tip marker, then erased all pencil -lurks. To antique my board I used an X- ACTO blade (sharp knife will also do) to round the corners, make gouges and cut crack lines at both ends (Fig. 1). When this was finished. I de- cided on types Wherba and the number I would have. We used`seven. I then measured to evenly space where the hangers should go on the board and made ' a pencil mark for each. Centered over 'each mark I wrote the name of each herb using -the same brown felt tip marker. The ' next step was to varnish the board - While the varnish dries, straighten coat hangers, one for each plant; when all were straight I formed a small loop at one end and a loop large enough to fit a three-inch cla pot at the other end (Fig. 2). I spray painted the coat hang- ers to match the color of the walls, planted the three-inch clay pots and presto -- an herb garden as well as an at- tractive wall hanging, thus solving our problem in a func- tional, useful manner. If you have a, problem area or even a patio wall this could be an inexpensive answer. Another suggestion might be to .make macrame,. hangers and stagger the plants by us- ing curtain rod hangers which are longer than cup hooks (Fig. 3). Thus you could have more pots. In any event, plant a garden and watch it grow. Experiment and have fun! Qow. co, vv.i • 411,�0 Fib 1. LISTOWEL TEXTILES 'MILL ENDS rIG 2 tar „liorrk. twAtttant Ace/. F 1G .S hat car'. be done., about prolapse? By ELEANOR B. ROIVE11SON, I.D My mother has what the doctor calls a "prolapse" of her blacker and her bowel She has had this ever since Ter tedc .hild was born. Rthe says she never wants an .oper- ation, Doctors have tittedter withdifferent kinds of things to hold the prolapse back, but they never seem, to work very well and often fall out. Is there something you can suggest? Prolapses are due to a relaxation of the muscles and ligaments thatsupport the fe- male organs in the pelvis. This condition maY be due, rarely, tasotane defect a wom- an is born with, and, more comurignly, to aging of the tis - saes, or -to strains from child- birth -- long labors, large ba- bies, tissue that is just not able to stretch and return to its former shape. • ,Before the development of s 'cal repairs' and new anest tic techniques, women and doctors used their ingenu- ity to hold these prolapses back because they do cause a lot of "dragging down" dis- comfort and backache. Also, there may be difficulty In emptying the bladder and rectum and, in the case of the bladder, a pool of urine left behind means probable infec- tion. ' Some women used simple cloths and pads to hold the or-, gans back. Others, who went to doctors, were fitted with various types of pessaries of hard and soft rubber and plas- tic. Foreign objects are al- ways irritating to the vagina and have to be removed and replaced often. Some can be manipulated by i the woman herselfd some have to be changed by the doctor. Pe"ssai'ies are a nuisance to the woman concerned, but are better than nothing and better than the treatment prescribed in some African and Arabian communities where, after de- livery, the vagina is packed with salt to cause shrinking and scarring of the tissues. It is obvious that later inter- course and deliveries are very painful, .br4.evvert" impotoible,: When there are no physical reasons why a woman should not tolerate an operation well, the best treatment is surgical repair. With .the newer anes- thetic techniques, many el- derly women, who formerly were not strong enough to stand the surgery, can now be operated on. If your mother does not like the idea of surgery, the only course open to her is to keep trying the various gadgets un- til she finds the one most com- fortable for her. Some wit once said that the 'treatment of prolapse ' was to stand on your head! It is true that lying down with the foot of the- bed elevated is an old home reme- dy and it does provide some temporary relief. Q. Will stopping my menses stop my pre-menstrual symp- .• toms of crankiness? A. First, I would like to know, how are you going to stop your menses? By haVing one baby after another? By hysterectomy? By hormones? By so-called ``menstrual ex- traction?" Menstruation is the 'end re- sult of a series of hormonal in- teractions and they them- selves are under control of the central nervous system. A few women, have severe shocks and menstruation ceases for a time. So, stopping your menstru- ation probably will not in it - self get rid of your pre-men- strual symptoms. You would have to affect your hormone taken bY daWe. If 4- prook000trualsee YQW doctor advice, ile can Probobbr scribe Imple will give You at toot Milli relief.
