baking pan and pour over a little
meat glaze. Bake in a quick oven
and haste often with meat glaze
which gives it a glossy surface and
good flavor. Meat glaze is made by
reducing two quarts of brown stock
to one-half cup and is an ingredient
used by professional cooks in many
of their sauces.
For orange bonnie first make an
orange ice. Boil one quart of water
and one pint of sugar for twenty
minutes, cool and add pint of or
ange juice, the grated rind of two
oranges using only the yellow part,
and one quarter cup of lemon juice.
Strain and freeze. If the juice of
blood oranges is used it will be call
ed a pomegranite ice. Cranberry
juice may be used for coloring, omit
ting the lemon juice entirely.
For freezing use one part rock salt
to three of ice crushed in bag with
mailet. Line "a melon mould with
the orange ice then fill the center to
overfowing with one pint of not too
rich cream beaten until thick, to
which add one third cup of maras-
chino cherries cut in halves and one
half tablespoon of vanilla. Put
buttered or paraffine paper over the
top, press the cover on SO the cream
will ooze out all round the edge.
Pack in equal parts Of salt and ice

filing will be firm and the whole
cut in slices like cake.

Serving Foods.

Preserves, jellies, or other cooked
fruits are often left from one meal
to the next, and if it is desired to
have them eaten, don't fail to have
them emptied into fresh, clean and
smaller dish. There is nothing like
serving food in a dainty manner, to
me it is appetizing. A few years ago
I sojourned for a couple of weeks in
Florida. Being unable to obtain no.
tel accommodations, we found Il
boarding house that was rather COM
Portable i'm all respects but one. The
landlady permitted her help to keep
an untidy table. I do not think the
butter dish was ever allowed to get
empty. During the entire time we
stayed, it came on the table meal af-
ter meal with small quantity of
fresh butter added to the mussy re-
mains of the previous meal. Other
dishes were permitted to grace or
disgrace the table in like manner.
Dishes that were nicely cooked and
otherwise palatable, failed to tempt
because they did not look good.
I know a young girl who during a
spell of sickness was waited on by a
kind old relative, her mother being
from home, who cooked dishes rec
commended by the doctor, or craved
by the invalid. They were not eaten
after having been prepared The
mother, returning, found her daugh-
ter worse and inquired: Why Bertha,
wasn't your broth good? Couldn't
you take it? Oh! I don't know mann
ma, auntie Jones brought it in, in
a tin cup and it made me sick. The
toast might have been good, but that
old brown dish spoiled lit. It tasted
of the dish.
A sick person, may frequently be
persuaded to take nourishment if
the nurse will use little tact. A
tray spread with the prettiest dolly
or the finest napkin with small
quantities of food, offered in the
prettiest china dishes will generally
repay the nurse for her extra pains.
Of course it requires a little more
work to have all things nice, but the
greater enjoyment derived from it,
will always pay.-Ex.

Good Cooking.

The Boston cooking school advo-
Gates furnish some good advice and
helps for dinners and l1ncheons of
which we extract the following:
For Soup use a stock made from
the water in which a fowl has been
boiled and favored with few vege-
tables according to the rule for max
ing white stock. Pick over and wash
one third cup of barley; cook it ten
minutes in three tablespoonful of
butter. Add five cups of white stock
and cook one and one half hours,
then add three-fourths cup of celery
cut fine, parboiled and drained, and
cook al until the barley is tender
Season with salt and pepper then
add a pint Of hot milk. Pour the
boiling soup over the beaten yolks of
two eggs and serve at once This
gives a smooth, rich soup.
For baking select thick slice of
halibut and for a small quantity
fish. Clean a two-pound piece by
wiping it over with a cloth wrung
out of salt water. 1T may be baked
on fish sheet in a dripping pan, or
more conveniently for a small piece
on a 'buttered piece of cheese cloth
laid in a small baking pan. Pour one
one half cup of milk round it and
bake about 35 minutes, basting often
with the milk. IT is a common fault
of cooks to over cook fish rather
than take it up under done. 1t is
practically spoiled either way When
done the fish will leave the bone,
take this out, pull off the skin, being
careful not to break the fish, and
serve in a solid piece. Pour the
cheese sauce around it and a sprig
of green parsley laid on top will con-
trast we'll with the white fish and
yellow sauce. The cheese sauce is
sort of a rarebit Melt one table
spoonful of butter, add one and one
half teaspOOnfuls of corn starch and
pour on slowly three-quarters of a
cup of milk; add one half pound of
cheese cut fine. Season with salt,
mustard and cayenne. AS soon as
the cheese melts, add one beaten
egg and serve.

looked out of the window

Justice Tillman said he thought it just
to continue the trial. Before he could say
more, Solicitor Ferguson asked what the
defense would be- He said 1t could not
be one of self defense, as from all reports
the murder was cold-blooded one. He
said IL he knew what the attorneys wanted
to prove he might admit 1t ali.
Attorney Vaughan said the defense did
not have to announce this. and would not
do so. He objected to the case being ar
gued at that stage.
