Cuisine Queries.

What is loppered milk? That
which, having stood too long. coagu-
lates and becomes sour. An old
fashioned name for curds.
Which is the more injurious. green
or black tea? Green. for the reason
that 1t contains more of the theme,
or intoxicating element. For this
cause It is forbidden to nervous
people. 1t is acceptable to the tired
persons who make tea save the extra
amount of food required to sustain
them.
Can mushrooms be artificially cult
waited? Yes, but the agaricus campes-
iris is the only variety which grows
either In the cellar or in caves.
