How to Cook Husbands,


Miss Corson said in the Baltimore
Cooking School that Baltimore lady had
written recipe for ''cooking husbands,
so as to make them tender and good"
1t is as follows:
A good many husbands are utter!s
spoiled by mismanagement. S me women
90 about it as if their husbands Were
bladders, and blow them up. Others
keep them constantly in hot water; Others
let them freeze by their carelessness and
indifference. Some keep them in !:
stew by irritating ways and words. Otl,
ers roast them. Some keep them IL,
pickle all their lives. Itcannot be sup.
posed that any husband will be tendt,
and good managed in this way, but the.
are really delicious when proper,
treated, In selecting yonr husband You
should not be guided by silvery appear
ance, as in buying nackerel, nor by the.
golden tint, as if you wanted salmon. Be
sure and select him yourself, az tast.e I
differ, Do not go to the market for him,
as the best are always brought to your
door. It is far better to have none unless
you will patiently learn how to cook him.
