which those who have used very highly
endorse: Take one cup of cold water and

mixture will cleave from the bottom IF

take from the stove and when a tile cool

eggs, one at a time, without beating.
| asst of all, add a piece Of saleratus the
size of a pea. dissolved in a @teaspoonful
Of milk. Drop on we'll buttered tins
with a large spoon, and bake twenty-five
minutes in a a very hot oven. This rule
makes one dozen very large ones, or
about fifteen of the usual bakery size.
DO not open the oven door to look at
them in less than twenty minutes. When
the puts are cool cut a slit in one side
With the scissors and ill with cream. AS
u the cream filling, almost every cook
has her own favUrlte way of making it,
some using flour in its preparation. and
others. corn starch, but for the benefit
of those who are minus any particular

good: Beat together one egg. Que half

How Water Should BE Cooked.

"Water is one of the secrets of cook
ing sententiously said a well-known
New York chef to a -NtiI AMI Ep1ye ss re-
porter.
II suppose you mean all food in its
raw state should be washed:'
"Nothiny of the KIND replied the
artist. "a few cooks und -rstand the
many effects produced by hard and soft
water in cooking vegetables and meat.
II peas and beans, Tor instance, are
cooked in hard water, containing lime
and oympsum, they will not boil tender,
because these substances have a tendency
to harden vegetable c~aseine. Now,
many vegetables, as onions, boil nearly
tasteless in soft water, because all the
flavor is boiled out. The addition of
salt often checks this. as in the case of
onions, causing the vegetables to retain
their peculiar %tlavoring principles, be
sides such nutritious matter as might be
lost i'll the soft water. Some Of the
finest dishes in the world are ruined by
the use of hard water when soft is re
CURED. 1t is a science that can best be
learned by actual experience in the ca
pacity of assistant chef. 1t requires a
long apprenticeship and a natural apti-
tude to become a great cook and to un-
derstand water. Now, to extract the
! Juice OF meat to make a broth or soup
soft water. unsalted and cold at first, IS
the best, for it much mese readily pene-
trates the tissue. But for boiling. where
the Juices should be retained, hard water
or soft water salted is preferable and the
meat should be put in while the water is
boiling. so as to close up the pores at
once. | have two assistants and once a
week lecture them On the proper use of
hard and soft W ter III cooking certain
dishes. In answer to your facetious ques-
ton above | will state that not only raw
food should be clean, but that water
goes a long way in keeping a tirst-class
cuisine in "a healthy sanitary condition.

THE HAWAIIAN CABINET MINISTER'S.

In an editorial in the Washington
National Republican" of April 10Th APP
pears the following:
"The present Cabinet officers in Ha-
waii are the tail and not the head of the
Kingdom, and after so much clamor
they have not yet corrected any of the
wrongs and error s of their predecessors,
nor have they paid any of their legiti-
mate debts-twaddle upon twaddle, but
no facts, and they are no better off than
their predecessors. The only thing that
has the appearance of tangibility on the
part of the present Cabinet Ministers is
their determination to cling to Office and
enjoy the fat salary as long as possible,
and also to bulldoze the King and his
peaceful Hawaiian people, and continue
to be the humble underlings of the mis-
sionari"S and of the Honolulu Rifles
