Charlotte Russe

When perfectly made there is nothing
more delicious or digestible than char
lotte russo. There are now all manners of
ways of navoring and serving charlottes
and one can have them in any variety
of color, according to the flavor. But the
simplest (and many epicures would con-
slider it the most ideaD chanotte russo is
merely a circle or cup of sponge cake
filed with sweetened whipped cream,
very delicately favored with vanilla. 1t
does not contain stiffening matter of any
kind. Occasionally when cream will not
beat up firmly gelatine Conly a trihe) may
be used, but If the cream is of the right
sort this will not be necessary and the
filling is much better without it, Lady
fingers are generally used by the French
for the border, instead of plain sponge
cake. For individual moulds split the lady
fingers and cut them in half. Secure six
small charlotte russo moulds, about two
and half inches high and two inches
across the bottom. Line the moulds with
the lady fingers, placing the outside Of
the little cakes against the mould. If a
plain sponge cake is to be made the fol-
lowing recipe will prove very satisfactory:
Whip two whole fresh eggs with an esq
whip. adding gradually a cup Of sifted
powdered sugar and cup of pastry -four,
sifted several times with teaspoonful of
baking powder. Moisten the batter with
about a sixth Of a cup of boiling water.
Bake in oblong layers is a moderate oven,
and when the cake is cool split each
layer through once. If the regular char

Cut, however, probably counts for
more than material at present, espe-
cially In the lighter weight tweeds and

convenient coat and skirt suits for

curves right to a hairs breadth account
for the indefinite touch Of chic that

she worked steadily and hard TO make
herself a lace dress, all to be wrought
