RECIPES OF oLD-TIME COOKING

Now that it is the fashion to serve
small hot cakes at ones five O'Clock
tea, the following recipes that were
held in high repute by our grand
mothers, will be welcomed.
The first recipe, which is long
cherished ore in an old southern family,
is copied without alteration from the
faded manuscript cook book, and is
called LAFAYETTE Jumbles. Beat one
teacup of grated loaf sugar, one cup
of butter and the white of one egg,
very light. Mix to a tolerable stlff
dough with -four and add tablespoon
full of thick cream, and as much soda
as will lie on a sixpence. Roll the
dough in thin sheets and cut in round
cakes or rings. Dip the cakes in graf
ed loaf sugar before baking. Very
delicious bits are the Lady Washington
Jumbles, which call for one pound OF
-four. the same of sugar and an equal
quantity of butter. Mix these ingre-
dents with three welt beaten eggs, a
wine glass of rosewater and some es-
sence of lemon. Roll into thin sheets
and cut in rings, dipping in loaf sugar
before baking.
Another noted recipe is for favorite
Jumbles. Three pounds of flour, a
pound and half of sugar, a
pound of butter, half pint of new
milk. wine glass Of. new wine, tea
spoon of soda in little hot water, and
a tablespoonful of earaway.
Still another famed recipe is Norfolk
Tea Cake. which is rich and delicate.
To one pound of -four add the same
quantity of sugar, half pound of but
ter and six eggs. favoring with lemon
or vanilla. Confederate Cakes were
highly esteemed by the goou iivers of
the south. and are made by mixing one

eggs. Flavor with rosewater, brandy |

Strawberries and Pineapple.

Strawberries and pineapple mixed
make a pleasant change and is very
good as sauce for plain steamed
dding. Cut one pineapple in small
dice, and stew until tender. Cool,
measure and add to it twice as much
strawberries. Fill jars with this mix
ture. Cover to overf1owing with a
syrup made of twice as much sugar as
water, put on covers, put in boiler with
water coming two-thirds up the jars,
and let cook half an hour. Remove
jars, screw on tops and cool slowly.
Pineapple Preserves.
Wash clean fine ripe pineapples Put
them in large kettle or boiler full of
cold water; boil until they can be pene
trated between the sections with a
broom straw Take them out; when
cool cut them in slices one half inch
thick, pare off the rind and extract the
cores. Weigh them, and to each pound
allow one pound of sugar. Cover a pan
with layer of sugar and then a layer
of fruit. Let stand II hours, then drain
+ho slices and put the syrup ON to boil.

COFFEE.

To develop the delightful aroma and
flavor of coffee it is necessary to roast
it. After roasting it quickly deterio-
rates. Therefore buy in small quanti-
ties and keep perfectly alright. Keep
the coffee-pot well aired and scrupul-
ously clean, as coffee readily absorbs
foreign odors; sweeten occasionally by
boiling in it a solution of soda or
borax. Close the spout of the coffee
pot while making coffee to prevent the
escape of steam and. aroma. When
cream is served in the coffee, the flavor
will be better and less cream required
if the cream is put in the cup before
the coffee is added.
Coffee may be made either by filter
ing or boiling. In filtered coffee the
grounds do not mix with the infusion
the coffee must be finely ground, and
the boiling water is filtered through it
two or more times.
Boiled coffee is very generally used;
if made with an egg it has a rich, fine
favor. Beat the egg, with two table
spoons of cold water. To half cup
of ground coffee add half the egg, its
crushed shell and half cup of cold
water. Turn into a scalded coffee pot,
add three cups of boiling water and
boil five minutes. Let stand on the
back of the range ten minutes, than
serve. Cover the remaining egg and
keep in a cool place for future use.
COCOA.
Mix to smooth paste a level table
spoon each of cocoa and sugar and a
fourth of cup of cool water; boil two
minutes; add half pint of sealded milk
and boil up well, stirring constantly.
Flavor with vanilla. Half water and
half milk may be used, or for richer
beverage use more cocoa.

WATER LILY SALAD

S'Water lily salad y for white and
gold luncheon is a dainty dish. Cut
crisp lettuce leaves into pointed strips
like the outer green leaves of wa
ter lily. Cut the whites of hard boiled
eggs also into pointed strips to make
the petals. Mash all but two or three
of the yolks, mix them with mayon-
naise and fill in the center of the white
petals with this mixture. Take the
remaining yolks and put through a fine
sieve, scattering this over the yellow
centers and on the white petals to re-
semble the pollen of the flower. A
prettier salad can scarcely be imagined.
By leaving off the outer green leaves
and making the white petals and yell
low centers, very small, two or three
"daisies' may be made on each salad
plate for Marguerite luncheon.
LEMON ICE.
The most delicious '<lemon ice' may
be made in this way: To one quart of
milk add the juice of six lemons. Let
it curdle and add one cup of sugar, or
more, if needed. Freeze at once. This
ice is beyond criticism, and if desired
for pink luncheon or rose dinner, it
can be colored delicate pink by add
ing a small quantity of fresh straw
berry or raspberry Juice.
BREAD PUDDING.
To make "bread pudding" with
oranges, take pint of grated bread
crumbs and soak them in one and one
half pints of milk; add one well beaten
egg, one-quarter of a, cup of sugar, and
butter the size of walnut. Pour
about two-thirds of the mixture into a
buttered pudding dish, and on top lay
a cupful of sliced oranges. Add the
rest of the pudding and bake in
moderate oven.
FRUIT CUSTARD.
A delicious fruit custard'' may be
made by boiling one quart of milk in
a double boiler. Beat two eggs very
light and stir into them four table
spoonfuls of sugar and one table
spoonful of flour. Add to this little
cold milk, then stir it gradually into
the boiling milk, stirring until it
thickens; set it away to cool. When
cool, flavor with vanilla. Have ready

Mild Laxative
for Baby Free

The child of today is the parent of
the future, and whether it grows up
healthy and strong, or puny and weak.
depends upon the intelligence of its
parents, for most children are born
into the world healthy, but thousands
become future weaklings between
birth and the age of ten, when the
parents are still in greatest control.
The prime cause of trouble is in the
stomach A baby that is digesting its
full; the little child whose stomach is good
rompS and plays and never whlneS; the
growing child learns well at school and is
eager for fun if its head is clear and its
stomach light, and that means II 1t has
no constipation.
The best and safest way to cure any
irreguiarity of the stomach and bowels
in children is by the use of DR.. Caldwells
