"A woman there was and she wrote for the

She told how to cut and fit dress,
And how to stew many saVory mess,
But she never had done Ii herself. | guess
(Which none OF her readers knew.
oh. the hours we spent and the -four we
And the sugar we wasted like sand, :.
AT the hest of a woman who never mad
(And now we all know that she never
could cook,
And did not understand
"A woman there was and she wrote right
fair
CAS- you or might do),
How out of a barrel 70 make chair,
To be covered with chintz and stuffed
with hair,
'TwouId adorn any parlor and give it an
air!
(And we thought the tale was true).
Oh the days we worked and the ways
we worked,
To hammer and saw and hack
In making chair in which no one would
! A chair in which no one could possibly
sit,
Without crick in his neck.
A woman there was, and she had her fun
(Better than you and D.
She wrote about children-of course she
had none
She wrote recipes and she never tried one,
(And never intended to try.
And it isn't to toll and it isn't to spoil
That brims the cup of disgrace
It's to follow a woman who didn't know
meat
CA woman who never had cooked any

Boiled salmon, with a mayonnaise
dressing, is especially delicious just at
this season.
In making mayonnaise it is best to
thoroughly chill the eggs, oil and uten-
sils as low temperature allows it to
be prepared more quickly and lessons
the danger of separation; in summer it
is as we'll to imbed the soup plate or
bowl in which it is to be mixed in a
dish of chopped ice. Carefully separate
the yolks of two eggs from the whites
and drop on the chilled plate, putting
lie whites aside for other purposes.
Add a pinch Of salt and a dash of
cayenne and with fork rub the yolks
round and round, always stirring in
the same direction. When well mixed
begin adding the olive oil, drop or
two at time; be careful to work in
each addition very thoroughly before
adding more. Have ready some TARA
gon vinegar or a little strained lemon
juice. When the egg mixture is so
thick that 1t clingS to the fork and can
hardly be stirred add a few drops of
the acid then return to the oil; the first
effect will be to tighten the color but
not until more oil is added will it show
signs of thinning; for this reason the
acid must be added with care. Con-
tlnue adding oil and as the mixture
thickens smoothly it can be added more
rapidly; alternate with a little acid
whenever it becomes very thick. One
pint of oil can be used with two egg
yolks; the amount of acid will depend
upon its strength probably anywhere
from two to four tablespooDfuls will
be necessary. When all of the oil is
in and the mixture is thick and like a
glossy jelly add another pinch of salt
and set aside.
From one pound of fresh boiled sal
mon or the contents of one can drained
as thoroughly as possible remove all
bones and skin and with fork sep
arate in large flakes. A portion of the
mayonnaise may be thinned down to a
creamy consistence by the cautious
addition of vinegar or lemon juice or a
French dressing may be prepared by
mixing quickly together one-half of
teaspOonful of salt, one-quarter of
teaspoonful of paprika or white pep
per, four tablespOonfuls of olive oil and
one tablespoonful of vinegar. Marinate
the prepared fish with either of these
dressings and let stand for an hour.
then arrange it on leaves or nests of
lettuce. Garnish the top with some of
the thick mayonnaise, and finely-chOp-
ped parsley and pass the remainder of
the mayonnaiSe separately.
