PREPARATION OF FOOD FOR THE SICK.

MISC pARIoA DIsCoURsEs on GOOD THINGS IN THE
DIET KITCHEN on BLACKwELL's ISLAND.
"Now girls, how many Of you know how to boil
eggs asked Miss Parloa yesterday afternoon az she
smiled encouragngly on the fifty neatly dressed
Young women who attend the training school for
nurses in the hospital on Blackwes Island. Two or
three hands went up hestatngly and young
woman venturcd the suggestion that you put the egg
in boiling water and keep it there two minutes and a
half This was amended by another to read L" three
minutes" but the amendment was not accepted
"Now, girls, what did tell you about albumen the
other day." expostulated the lecturer " II you subject
it to heat above boiling point, it -
"Coagulates,' prompted a bright-eycd listener.
"No, it becomes hard, positively indigcstibe, just
like India rubber; if you put an egg in boiling
water for two and half minutes you will find part Of
the white hard and tough and the other part uncooked
nice thing to put in sick mans stomach. If, on
the other hand, pour boiling water on tho egg and
then let stand where 1t is just warm for ten minutes
it will be all cooked through and easily digcstibc"
The experiment was performed and resulted TO the
confusion of the young woman who leaned to the two
and half minutes theory.
Then about toast" continued Miss Parloa. every
body knows how TO make toast, or thinks she does 1t
should be done to brown; ssme one says. res, 20
it should, but how Begin by holding it u good way
from the fire and keep bringing II closer until at the
end it is as possible without burning because it
is that carbonzed flavor that makes 1t toast and not
simply dry bread. IL is the same way with broiling
People saw Oh know a splendid way to broil steak
have your oven red hot and pop il in !"
But that isn't broiIing at all.
Now about arrow root Cruel. Where would you
buy your root the grocers the druggists"
:. At tho druggists" spoke up still. small voice
from the cerner. Because it's so much nicer"
No. not at the druggists. because arrow-root Ia q
wonderful absorbent and II absorbs all those queer
smells that pcrysde drug store. The two principal
REASONS why people don't like arrow root gruei is
because il is generally underdone aud the arrowroot
comes from drug store"
Thus the lecturer ran down the bill OF are becftea
sandwiches and croquettes, wine whey, cream toast
aud ice cream. giving out commoH-senso and sound
science in steady stream, while her young hearers
scrawcd ns ustriously ovor the pages OF their note
books Ii was the third Of the of five lectures
which Miss Parloa Is TO deliver in the diet kitchen.
