hcient. The motherly mother and de.

following dishes tempting. Generally
speaking. something with a little salty
flavor appeals to a mans appetite.
Ffnnan Haddie and Eggs.-Select a
thick fish and cut into pieces large
enough for single portions. Parboil
the fish for few minutes. Remove
FROM the pan, dry with cloth. Put
the fish on the fine broiler, rub butter
over 1t and broil until nicely Drowned.
Lay on hot platter, brush once more
with butter, squeeze a little lemon
juice over it and serve with a poached
egg on each square of fish.
Baked Breakfast Dish.-In the bot
tom Of baking dish put a layer of
cold mashed potatoes left from dinner.
Sprinkle with bits OF butter. Over this
place layer of finely chopped ham
and then break several eggs over the
top. Place in moderately quick
oven and bake until done. Grated
cheese may be added on top of the
eggs If cheese is liked. Many prefer it
without the cheese for breakfast and
with the cheese for luncheon.
Bacon in Potatoes.-Select large
potatoes OF even size and cut small
piece off one end so they will stand.
When baked remove the second end
scoop out part of the inside. Fill this
cavity with chopped broi.ed bacon,
making a little pyramid in each po-
tato. Serve on hot platter and stick
a sprig of parsley in each potato.
