DISH OF MEXICAN ORIGIN.

\ dish that cannot fail to delight the
palate of those who love highly seas
oned yiands, and yet, strangely
enough. viii not induce an increase of
the body's internal heat, is recon-
mended by Harry Leighton, whose tai
ents as an amateur cook are quite on
par with his ability as an actor. This
is Mexican concoction, called Chill
cOlOrOw," and those who care for such
dainties viii find it a most delectable
mixture, To make it, Mr.. Leighton
takes a quart OF boiled tomatoes and
one onion that has already been chop
ped fine. TO these he adds three ia
blespoUnfuls of granulated sugar, one
tablespoonful of the prepared ground
Spanish pepDer-a condiment that
may be purchased at any frst-class
grocery stOTe-and a little salt. The
mixture is then permitted to stew rath-
er slowly for some 20 or 80 minutes,
when, if it seems too dry, a little water
is added.-The Bohemian.

BROWNING Crumbs

The majority of cooks who attempt
TO prepare escallops or other dishes
that are supposed to be finished with
a top layer Of Drowned crumbs usual
ly spread the bread or cracker crumbs
over the surface, finally dotting them
with bits of butter. As the invariable
result such a dish is always Drowned
unevenly. The butter, spreading as it
does in spots, browns nicely, but all
around these spots are unbrowned
spaces that give a most inartistic if
not unfinished appearance to the dish.
To avoid this it is only necessary to
roll the crumbs fine and then mix
them with the melted butter before
spreading them over the space to be
Drowned. Those who have never prac-
ticed this method cannot fail to be
delighted with the improved appear
ance and flavor that may be impaired
SO easily to any preparation of this
kind.
