tical breakfasts for week, clipped from
the culinary experience of a lady:
SUNDAY.
Bill Of fare-Steak, omelet, stewed
potatoes, mullins and chocolate.
In detail-Ths steak must of course
lie broiled over the Goals. The omelet
should contain two eggs for each person.
The eggs must be beaten separate,
the whites to froth. Add table
spoonful of milk, and salt to taste
Have the frying-pan very hot; but in q
small piece of butter, just enough to
grease it we'll, seasoned with pepper and
salt, and thickened with flour. For the
mullins are required one quart of milk,
three-fourths of cup of yeast, two
tablespoonsful of white sugar, one of
lard or butter, one teaspoonful of salt,
flour to make a good batter, and two
eggs. Set the batter, leaving out the
eggs, to rise over night. In the morn
ing beat the eggs very light, stir into
the batter, and bake in muffin rings
twenty minutes in a quick oven. Of
course, additions can be made as to the
other breakfasts for the week, by vari-
GUS relishes and side-dishes which may
suggest themselves to the housekeeper.
MONDAY
Bill of fare -Rashers of bacon, baked
potatoes, corn-bread and coffee.
In detail-Monday is washing day,
and it is desirable to have breakfast re-
During but little work, and, in prepare
ton, occupying tho top of the stove as
little as possible. We will just cook the
bacon, and get the rest of the break
fast in the oven. The bacon should be
broiled by q wire broiler over clear
Goals, or in very hot spider to a crisp
light brown. The potatoes should be
washed and put to bake in pan. The

shorting, baking, two teaspoonsful put
in last, or use butter-milk and soda.

ga potatoes and buckwheat cakes and
coffee.
In datail-For three people, two kid
neys are enough, and make an admira
BILE dish. Many eat them with mustard.
They should be cut in thin slices and
the spongy portions cut off, put them
on to stew in water enough to quite
cover them; when nearly done, add
pepper and salt, a little piece of butter,
thicken with -four and add the juice of
half lemon. Have ready a slice of
bread toasted; cut into little pieces
about an inch square. Put in the bot
tom of the dish, and pour the whole
over it.
Saratoga potatoes: Cut raw potatoes
with potato cutter, and throw them
into cold water for twenty minutes, then
put them into the cullender, and salt
them; have ready in the spider two
tablespoonful of boiling lard, and put
the potatoes in, few at Il time, turning
them as you would doushnuts; you
must cook them quickly. This is not
quite the recipe for the original Sar-
atoga potatoes, but it is just as good
aud less trouble.
Buckwheat cakes need no explanation.
Prepared flour is recommended, mixed
just before you are ready to fry them
with cold water or milk.
