novel lines. 1t has the best newspaper
scene ever placed On any stage, bar

no other play ever dared to do, and 1t
has a love interest as dainty as 1t is
sweet This big offering has been a
real dramatic sensation in Los Angeles.

One Of the first rules IN making
cake is TO see that the oven is of the
right temperature. Then prepare the
pan Line ii with Ungreased paper
Do not lap the paper In the corners.
Cut piece as wide as the pan is long
and have II long enough to extend an
inch above the sides of the pan Fit
separate pieces into the ends. The
paper can be removed as readily as
when creased, and if the cake should
get too brown on the bottom much
of it will be removed with the paper.
Having the oven and pan ready, see
that all Of the ingredients are at hand,
measured and ready for use.
Butter for Cakes.-Butter should
never be melted for cake. as it makes
a cake coarse in texture. If the butter
is very hard. allow it TO stand on the
kitchen table for a time, in order that
il may be more easily measured and
creamed.
Measuring - Butter should be
packed solidly when it is measured,
and dry ingredients should be meas
ured lightly. Flour should always be
sifted before it is measured.
mixing.-TwO motions are used in
mixing cake-stirring and beating.
Use stirring motion TO combine the
ingredients. and then beat to inclose
air and give a fine texture. Always
make beating the last motion.
Baking.-Baking a cake REQUIRES
great care. 1t doesn't matter how
well cake has been mixed, if it is not
cooked properly it will be a failure.
Have the oven moderately hot at first,
so that the cake can rise. When the
oven is too hot crust will form, and
be broken as the cake rises. When
the cake has risen increase the tenn
perature and bake until it shrinks
from the pan. and when pressed light
