There's one way to cook carp and get an ex-

There was immediate silence. Something Of
unusual interest was about to be divulged.
''Take a birch slab," continued the New

fish with salt and pepper. butter and some herbs

open the oven door a most delicious odor will
steam up into your face. Your mouth will fairly

must remain in the oven for a few moments

and release the fish. Then-throw the carp
away and eat the slab"
