If a!ter It is boiled ifl .tne isual way, vou put it in a baking dish, with white "sauce and sprinkle grated chotse over the top. Put it in the oven long enough to brown. . Pimento Salad. These sandwiches are especially fine for luncheon. The sandwiches should not be allowed to stand for more titan an hour before serving. Cut bread thin, spread sparingly with thick mayonnaise dressing. Place on it a slice of the scarlet scar-let pimento, then more salad dressing and prcr-s the upper niece of bread gently. Serve with a leaf of light green lettuce. Trim neatly either round, long or square, cutting through lettuce and ail. Potted Chicken, Strip the 'meat from the bones of a braised or steamed fowl; free it from gristle and skin, weigh, and to every pound of. meat allow quarter of a pound of fresh butter, two or three slices o cooked ham; salt and pepper to taste, a teaspoonful of maee and half a . small nutmeg nut-meg grated. .' Grind or., chop the,' meat very fine and pound to a perfectly smooth paste with the- butter, sprinkling in the spicA gradually in the meantime. Pack the mixture in litule jars or pots and-cover. and-cover. to the depth of a quarter of an inch with clarified butter. .Tie paraffin paper tiphtlyt over the tops and keep in a cool, dry . place. ., . -. '. j. ,j ; Apple Fritters. - Peel and core four medium-sized sound apples neatly. Cut them into round slices, sprinkle them with sugar. Put into, an enameled saucepan one ounce of tresh butter and half a pint of lukewarm water. When the water is on the point of boiling boil-ing remove the butter with as much or as little of the hot water as you require re-quire to make one-quarter pound of flour into a thick batter. Add to this a pinch of salt and two beaten whites of eggs. In the middle of each apple slice put a saltspoonful of raspberry jam. Then dip the slice of apple into the batter and fry immediately. Drain well and sprinkle the fritters with caster sugar. Apples may also be sliced, soaked- in wine, covered with flour and fried in plenty of butter. Salad Dressing Without Oil. Not every one cares for the salad dressing in which . mayonnaise is the chief factor. Many a palate prefers the old fashioned boiled dressing. An old receipt that has stood the test of years is as follows: Put one cupful of milk into a double boiler and bring to a boil. Moisten two even tablespoonfuls of cornstarch corn-starch with a little cold milk and stir Into the hot milk. When it has thickened add the well beaten yolks of three eggs and cook for a minute. Remove from the fire and add a tablespoonful of vinegar and salt and pepper. If this stands on the ice or in a very cool place it will keep for a week. If whipped cream is used It should be added to the dressing just before be-fore the salad is wanted. Rinse the Mouth. If people would wash out their mouths twice or three times a day with an antiseptic an-tiseptic solution there would not be near as much sickness. In the last ten years I have never had a cold, sore throat or fever, and I ascribe -this immunity solely to the fact that I follow out this plan rigidly. There are any number of proprietary pro-prietary antiseptics that are excellent for this purpose, but many more . simple agents that are as good or better. One of the best of the latter is carbolic acid. A very weak solution of this gargled and held in the mouth two or three times a day will work wonders. Immediately after using one will find, that the mouth feels cleaner. I believe that a great majority of the throat and lung troubles come from the lodgment of disease miscrobes, while the use of antiseptics will kill these germs. |
