THE BEST PICNIC LUNCH.
A Few Hints as to the Preparing and Pack
inc IN pIcnic Iunpb.

n rev Hints as To the preparing anu
ing II Picnic Lunch.
The lunch is one of the most enjoya-
BILE features of picnicking, n the fol-
lowing hints may prove helpful in pre-
pairing and packing the same, SO that,
when served, it may tempt both the eye
and the appetite.
Meats for sandwiches should be
boiled the day before; then after re-
movingbone, skin and gristle they should
be put in packing tins, heavily weight
ed, and set in a cool place over night.
Cut in very thin slices.
Bread one day old is best, and n very
sharp knife is needed for cutting 1t into
thin slices not over three inches square.
These, buttered slightly, may Re
daintily filled with ham, salad. sar-
dimes, tongue, or whatever one likes.
Then cut pieces of confectioner's pa
per just large enough to cover the sand
witches neatly. Place them side by
side, closely packed, and they will pre-
serve their shape without breaking.
The paper is not to be removed until
served.
Cakes must also be one day old, ard
for picnic use a little extra iour in stir
ring, and an extra five Or ten minutes
in baking will ensure a frmer crust.
Frosting, If put on hot, does not crackle
and fall off. Cookies are more DESIRE
BILE than loaf cake, as are, also cup and
gem cakes. Jelly and cream confec-
lions are seldom nice for picnic serving.
Pies made of j%ellies, fruit or sweets
are best cooked fashion, the
pastry covering the filling entirely. Lay
them in paper covers and they serve
thus very conveniently.
Lemon, orange, strawberry, raspber-
ry or currant juices should be extracted,
then sweetened, and when well dis
solved, bottled. Drinks can then be
prepared by adding two tablespoonful
of the liquid to a tumbler of Ice water.
All these juices combined make q delic-
ious drink.
Strong coffee or tea may also be pre-
pared and served in the same way.
Bright tin mugs are more convenient
than tumblers, and there is no danger
of the breakage.
Hampers, with several trays, are more
desirable for packing. Ordinary lunch
baskets are a difficulty. White confec-
toners paper should be Used for lining
the basket and separating the different
kinds of food; also, for covering neatly
individual pieces. Cookies and crack
ers must be put in tight boxes. Plates
are too heavy, but bright, new biscuit
tins-the square shape are the best
are very useful in packing, and with
fringed napkins laid inside, they serve
well for salvers in handing the food
around. Paper napkins are best.
Whatever is to be eaten last should
be packed at the bottom Of the hamper,
and that to be served first at the top.
Fruit, pickles, olives and cheese must
not be forgotten. Ladies' Home Jour-
nal.
