Good Appetizer.

1 Very large French prunes opened
and stuffed with Indian curry and
rice are one Of the appetzers now in
vogue. The rice stunning is boiled
long enough to completely lose its
shape and to become soft, somewhat
sticky mass. The curry sauce mixed
through it then is made very hot.
The insides of the largest available
prunes are then removed to afford
space for the filling and are taken and
boiled down into thick syrup. The
prunes at length are placed on a cir
cular bit of toast, while the syrup is
poured over the whole. 1t is custo-
mary to serve this appetizer slightly
warm. two prunes being allotted to
each dish.

The extraordinary popularity Of fine

choice of Starch a matter Of great i'm
