How to Extract tho Skeleton Of . Fish Be.

''After all, this is just about the
finest fish that swims," said Quincy
market-dealer the other morning; as
he laid upon the scales big shad that
made the indicator jump around to the
seven-pound notch.
so far as flavor is concerned" re-
piled the customer; 1T is certainly I'M
equaled, but the bones are serious
drawback"
The fishmonger smiled. IF on
don't like the bones.' he remarked,
''why don't you take them out before
you cook the shad?'
You are joking 1t would not be
possible without pulling the fish to
shreds."
''You are quite mistaken, l assure
you. If you like will bone this one
for YOU Watch me closely, and next
time y GU will be able to do it foryour-
self You see. have already spread
the fish out flat, as if for broi]1ng. by
dividing the back with a knife from
the head to the tail After disembow-
cling it cut off the tail and head, and
then inserting my knife as carefully as
possible beneath the backbone l dis
sect it out, as the doctors would say,
from the flesh. together with the ribs
and smaller bones attached to it. If
this is properly done nearly the whole
of the bony system will have been re-
moved, when the belly and other USE
less portions are cut away. Nothing
now remains, you perceive. but the
edible part of the shad, ready for the
gridiron. For. of course. boned shad
must be broiled Scarcely scrap of
meat has been thrown away, and all
the bones are taken out save only two
or three rows of little ones that can
be readily withdrawn from
between the longitudinal flakes. The
shad's skeleton is far more elaborate
in structure than that of any other
fish, and the difficulty of performing
this operation upon it is proportion
ately greater. With mackerel or
cod there is comparatively little
trouble. Here is your shad now, sir.
without a bone in it. 1t is delicacy,
will venture to say, that you have
never seen upon any body's table,"
Since the writer interview with the
marketman he has tried the process
once himself, and with some success.
There were. perhaps, half a dozen
stray spines scattered through the fish
when it came upon the festive board.
but to all intents and purposes it was
bon eless shad, and those who ate it
pronounced it simply immense.
A suggestion in regard to the proper
method of carving fish may not be
mal-apropos. The usual style of cut
ting it in transverse sections is highly
Objectionable, because it results in
giving to each person the maximum
number of broken bones. The proper
way is to run the knife along parallel
with the back, separating the flakes
gingerly from the osseous frame work.
