THEATRICALS,

Katherine RDber began her
weeks engagement at the Opera

mensely The staGa settings are
beautiful aud th- costumes worn by
all the company gorgeous Miss
Rober evidently owes -much of her

Breakfast Hot Breads.

Hot breads for breakfast are peculi
arly American. Almost without eXcep
ton we Yankees are fond of them.
After ALL it is to be doubted whether
they are any more injurious to the
health than many dishes which our for
eign critics eat.
The good housewife knows that bis
cults should be mixed rapidly and baked
at once in a quick oven. Biscuits and
rolls must be brushed lightly with milk
and sugar when a glaze is required,
Pans should be warmed and then greas-
ed before the gems, biscuits or rolls are
placed in them.
To make sweet milk scenes take one
pound of -four, one egg, two teaspoon
fuls of baking powder, half a teaspoon
full Of carbonate of soda, half a tea
spoonful of cream of tartar and a little
milk. Mix the dry ingredients in a
basin with the egg previously we'll
beaten and enough milk to make a
light dough. Turn out on a board and
roll at once. Cut into small three-cor-
nered scenes and bake in a rather quick
oven on the shelf. Serve hot, cut
through and butter
What are called breakfast cakes are
made as follows: Cream half an ounce
OF German yeast with a teaSpoonful of
powdered sugar. Melt one ounce of
lard in saucepan and add nearly half
pint OF milk, making all lukewarm
Pour the milk on the yeast and sugar
Then strain all into three quarters of a
pound of -four add a beaten egg and
mix thoroughly. Flour board, turn
the dough onto it, beat it and cat into
cakes. Grease some tins, set the cakes
in and put by the fire to rise for an
hour. Then bake for three-quarters of
an hour.
In making mullins, to every quart of
milk allow one and half ounces of Ger
man yeast, little salt and flour. Warm
the milk, add to it the yeast and mix
these we'll together. Put them into a
pan and stir in sufficient flour to make
the whole into dough of rather soft
consistency. Cover over with cloth
and put it in warm place to rise, and
when light and nicely risen divide the
dough into pieces and round them to
the proper shape with the hands. Place
them in a layer of flour about two
inches thick on wooden trays and let
them rise again. When this is effected
they each will exhibit a semi-g lobular
shape. Then place carefully on hot
plate or stove and bake until slightly

The portraits just discovered in Stat
