GIRLS SURPRISE LuNcAEoNs.
A Plan for tile Meeting OF Young Folks
Cooking Clubs.

A Plan for tie Meeting OF Young Folks
Cooking Clubs.
One of the latest fads among young
girls, and one which is growing in
favor, is giving small tea or luncheon
parties where every dish served is pre-.
pared by the hostess. The menu also
Is of her own selection, and if she be
clever and original she can often evolve
ideas worthy of imitation by full
hedged entertainers, who are always
glad of something out of the common
for their own tables.
good plan on such occasions is for
the hostess to invite one or two of her
more intimate friends to receive with
her, with the understanding, of course
that they put in an appearance several
hours before the arrival of the guests,
and lend hand in the preparations. 1t
is well, in such cases, for the hostess to
confer with her assistants beforehand
ngreeing what dish each is to prepare
| SO that everything requisite may be in
readiness and things proceed ''decently
aud in order"
4 good deal of amusement might be
gotten out of an original dish created
by the hostess, and of which no one
knows the ingredients. 1t should be
ornamental, served as aseparate course
with considerable ceremony, and to be
successful must be very good to the
taste. OF course wise hostess will
experiment carefully with such dish,
and be quite sure of exact results be-
fore venturing to serve it. Its name
should hold no indication of its nature,
though it may suggest a mystery as,
for instance, Surprise PURGE, Inter
rogat:on Pudding" What is It?" or
the like.
If it is suitable to serve in regular
form on fat dish, an effective orna-
mentation would be bits of fringed pa.
per (of a color corresponding with the
other decorations) on which a continu-
Gus row of interrogation points is
drawn in gilt.
Considerable fun may be had by in
viting the guests to guess at the ingre-
dents, or even to write on bits OF pa
per laid beside the plates what each
thinks the dish is composed of, after
which the hostess produces the real
formula carefully and infinitely ex
| plalned), which she reads aloud before
inviting a reading of the Others
The true formula is now copied into
the little receipt books which may have
4 been given as favors at the first OF Q
series of such gatherings, and If the
company are members of club, meet
ing weekly or bi-weekly, as is general
ly the case, the little books at the enc
of the season will hold directions fol
making good many new and NJ
doubt some very good dishes while a
the same time it will be fitting souve
mir of a charming season.
While the real value of such clul
would be the experience gained in do
ing ordinary things well, and eacl
hostess would see to it that her rolls
croquettes, coffee and chops were don,
to perfectiou the charm of novelty ant
invention would add zest to what nigh

KITCHEN CUTLERY.
Good Knives Are Necessary and Should
Re Kept With Care.


Re Kept With Care.
Nothing is more essential to good
kitchen work than good cutlery. The
cook must be provided with good
bread knife, with thin, broad blade
and keen edge, if she would cut her
bread as it should be cut-into thin
dainty slices There must also be a
good, sharp meat knife 1t is not pos
sible to use the same knife for both
purposes and keep it long in good con
oition In addition, there must also be
little vegetable knife and a little
boning knife, with thin, sharp point
ed blade -3
These knives should be bright and
clean, and exclusively for their own
respective purposes. 'Ihey should not
be allowed near the fire, for heat ruins
the temper of the steel, and when the
temper is once destroyed it can not be
restored. There should always be two
or three common iron knives about the
kitchen for the purpose of scraping
pots and pans and for stirring any
thing cooking upon the stove. One
of the best knives for scrapers has a
Short, strong blaze, broad and Sharp at
the lip like putty knife. Knives that
are in use in the kitchen should be sys-
tematically sharpened.
In the city, where IA knife grinder is
always convenient, it pays to send the
knives to him about once in three
months, as it costs but little to have
them thus properly ground. In the
country, where a knife grinder is not
| always accessible, cook should learn
the use of the milestone, as a carpen-
ter or other mechanic does, and keep
her knives in order herself. Knives
which are not in use should be rubbed
in little sweet oil, wrapped in chamois
skin and laid away. Knives in daily
use should be washed and dried thor.
oughly. On no account should the
handles be allowed to soak in water,
nor should the knives be allowed to
dry in the oven, nor in any place around
the range, for by such treatment then
temper will be destroyed and then
handles loosened.
The best place to keep knives which
are in hourly requisition in the kitchen
is in knife rack hung on the wall
