The hour strikes. The professor begins bic
Instructions. To these votaries he has already
explained his theory Of the art. There remains
10 be disclosed to them only the fine PARTICLES
to be exhibited the delicate results of his pro-
ce-ses, which. be Is certain, will reward their most
serious attention.
The soup. We discover. already exists in the
embryo. for a French artist never allows bis
SOUP kettle TO leave The range. where IL gently
and cobtentedly SINNERS, every ready ID receive
the awkward knucklss which must not dishgurs
he pretty side dish. tho msrrosy bone whose
unsightliness banIshed It's succulenee from the
platter, the trimmings OF the shapely joint, the
sklmmiugs Of the turbulent pot whence savory
chickens sr . tender leg OF veal send forth sppe-
thing prophecies.
Soup being ~iucipient then. We ars requested to
consider the hllet, which must be treated first, as
requiring longest baking. Upon the hllet we
concentrate our gaze. and We learn that it weighs
i've pounds; that IL IL carefully cut aud trim med;
and, altogether, u credit to is bovine originator.
Baking. Monsieur explains. Is at best an III sub
stirute for roasting. The juices are dried, the
meat IL toughened. Nevertheless, ho EATERS

feryaded with 81 mpathy for the beef, and men
tally heaping objurations on the oven. We hang
on the next words OF the philanIhropic professor.
The assistant, under magnetic control. no words
being spoken. slices a carrot, re tuces al onion
70 impalpable grains OF odor, adds salt aud pep
per, lays the larded beef in the pan upon this
vegetable basis. pours a ladletul of broth over
10, and sets il over the ERE, where the liquid
boils furiously and the beef smokes. Aoasieur
explains that this sudden application Of extreme
heat slightly inerusts the meat, keeps the juices
psnt within, and makes IL, therefore, nutritious,
while basting IL frequently with the broth keeps
the surface tender.
We turn now to The tomatoes. One Of the
flashing knives describes an equatorial circle
round eight polished, scarlet spheres, and they
are hsmispheres. The scidulous contents being
scooped from the rudy bowls into q shining
saucepap, bread crumbs, which, in this .killful
Hspe9e, put on a hundred dainty and tooth
some oisguises-the delicatsst spices, and a sus-
picion OF onions rush together to form the stuff
ing, which your new born confidence ia Mon
sleua Blot assures you will be excellent. And
now il is time 10 turn the file, still buboling on
the range.
Soup, beef, tomatoes being all under way, let
as examine the cauliaower. Potatoes. explains
Monsieur, beng very expensive, va do net to-
day cook them. American house wives cherish
the potato, but at times il Is exirsvsgant. and it
10 never indispensable. These tomatoes, with
their stuffIDg, shall be found very good. The
eauliaower, refined by our process of cooking,
shall not remind you Of its coarse family, the
cabbage, and in reality, in this dinner, so adml
rsble. there Is no place for the potato.
Well, then. csuiihower Is boiled with q drop OF
milk in the water 10 give il wbitencss, and. being
boiled, a delicious dressing is poured around II is
the basis of every sauce and every gravy being
drawn from the ineIhaustible and all pervading
soup-kettles. Then a pale island in a sea of
sauce, whose uneven SUBMITS are white with the
inevitable bread-crumbs. il Is lost in the yawn-
ing oven. Meanwhile the hllit is the third tune
turned. and II We had not seen IL quietly Injured
in the oven, We could aver that il vas turning
on q spit. 80 positively, through its savory fumes,
il declares itself a roast; and the tomato juice,
being done now. is whisked from the range, re-
turned, spotheosizsd TO its native sells, bread
crumbs again, over sgsin. and We wal, while
hope becomes fruition.
Not idly, though, for in some imperoeptible
atom OF time bstseen the ripe state OF two dishes
the tumble cook has found space 10 make tue
paste for bis cream cakes. A little -four, a little
butter, q little water being gathered TO their
FINAL saucepan, the master subdues them With a
wooden spoon and the power of a giant Eggs
add themselves, apparently OF their own volition,
ard the delicate compound is ready ia the twink
ling Of an eye.
When the paste eOols the patient bass has his
turn. Another knife, slender a. the blades OF
Damascus, meandefs down his right side, AMI
makes sharp vertical incisions in the left, that
the dressing may penetrate and favor the fish.
Then IT'S sauee-orOth, of couTse-wIth magical
spicerS. and the plump bass follows the fllet and
becomes q memory.
And now the chicken. Two small fowls are
dissected In q breath. The fine, plump pieces
for the waiting sauce pan, the 8 raggy bits for
the sxpectant sosp kettle. SSBti, explains Sir
Oracle. is not fry. Flying can be made palats
BILE. and not unhealthy; out frying. as ~practicsd
in most American kitchens. disengages the fatty
acids, ~toughens she meats, and produces a dis

chicken is placed in this pan already heated. 81
