OYSTERS AND W HiTE WINE.
Two Interesting Lectures at the Pure
Food Exposition mt Albaugh's.

Food shows must be exceeding popular
in Washington. judging from the large at
tendance at the exhibition at Albaugh's
Opera House last evening. The principal
attraction was Mr.. Pohndorff's lecture on
White Wines and Generous Wines
Mrs. Rorer's discourse this afternoon was
upon the cookery of oysters. While oysters
make highly nutritious and digestible
food, she stated that they should never be
used out of season. Raw oysters should be
eaten as soon as opened. else the flavor
and spirit are lost. She gave an interest
ing resume of the anatomy of the oyster,
and insisted that those who removed the
outer fringed part of the oyster. known as
the beard" did wrong, as the remaining
portion was the most indigestible and
should be rejected by persons with weak
stomachs. Cooked oysters are better, and
even the lightest form of broiling renders
them more digestible
Mrs. Rorer prepared a number of appe-
tizing dishes, including fried, curried and
panned oysters, little pigs in blankets"
and oysters baked in macaroni.
Tonight she will give a special lecture on
Plain Pastry" by request. Today is SOU
venir day at the exposition, and each lady
attending this afternoon will be, presented
with silver after-dinner coffee spoon.
