Wedley had with him at the time a box
full of old gold and silver, mostly arti-
Giles which had been pounded into I'M
recognizable masses and made TO look
like junk. The man had on two form

becomes motonous. But, when thought

A few fancy molds added to the
kitchen utensils will aid greatly in the
service of prettiiy finished dishes.
Nothing is moro generally useful than
a ring of border mold, even if perfect

Goldfish or halibut which, when turned

IL holds a mold of cornstarch, to be fill
ed, when on the serving dish with
whipped cream dotted with red jelly
or crimson fruit. We all remember
the oval mold in our mothers kitchen
of corn or a bunch of grapes; and
how delighted we were when we could
display a few of the grapes or the
single leaf. Today kitchen supply
stores show a bewildering variety in
large and individual sizes. Those
which are suited for some use, as they
take skill and time for unmolding and
require more care in cleansing The
familiar melon shape, the curves of

other distinctive design; individual cir
cular or heXagonal timbale molds; pat
ty pans resembling shells, etc, are
readily kept clean and easily part
with their contents. A supply of plain
and slightly fancy paper cases or, for
the housekeeper who has more time, a
Swedish timbale iron with which to
make edible cases: a few pretty molds
and a pastry bag and tubes-such a
supply will mean unlimited ways of
decorating.
As a suggestion for a pretty and
easily gotten up dish, butter thickly
some small timbale mOlds with soft
butter, then sprinkle, press round the
sides and bottom stars and crescents
cut from thin slices of truffles or red
beets or dark orange carrots then
sprinkle in a very little finely chopped
parsley. Make a thick, white sauce
hard boiled eggs chopped fine and
three well beaten raw eggs, the whole
well seasoned with salt and pepper and
onion juice. Stand in a pan partly fill
ed with hot water and place in a mod
crate oven until set in the center.
When. done turn out carefully ON a
platter and pour around them a to-
mato sauce. This is both slightly and
delicious.
AS a desert make some corn starch,
using three almost level tablespoonfuls
of corn starch and four tablespoOnfuls
of sugar to the pint of milk. Dip a
large mold in cold water Drain but
do not dry. Fit a ring of candied
cherries round the base and carefully
put in a little corn starch A second
row of cherries may be added when
half full and a third when filled. This.
served with either plain or whipped
cream, makes a simple yet very good
dessert.
