To Clean Baking Dishes.

To know how to properly clean
utensils after cake or pie baking is an
item In itself. A cake crock should be
scraped of dough, then rinsed out with
cold water A metal wash cloth aids
greatly In cleaning the crock or par.
II warm water is added, the dough
naturally sticks to the pan. Always
whip the egg beaten in cold water. A
greater is easily cleaned with crust
or bread and small stiff brush. 1t
Is advisable to always use the same
cup in measuring. First measure the
Hour, then the sugar, then use milk 20
clean the cup. and the butter will slip
easily from the next cup This brings
one cup into use instead of using two
or three. Pie dough left after baking
day can be kept fresh If laid away IN
the Hour bin or sack. If crusts are
baked, then set aside, and If not crisp
when needed, heat them a second time
before adding fresh ingredients.
Oyster Pie.
Peel and boil one quart of potatoes.
When done put through a potato press
add one tablespoonful of butter. the
yolfs of two raw eggs and high sea
soning OF salt and cayenne. Butter
deep pudding dish and put layer OF
the prepared potato in the bottom and
around the sides. Pick over and drain
one solid quart of oysters; prepare
one cupful of sauce from a table
spoonful OF butter, one tablespoonful
OF -four, and one-half OF cupful each
OF oyster liquor and cream or rich
milk. Season to taste with salt and
pepper, put in the oysters and stir
over the fire until the grills begin to
ruttie. Take from the fire, add the
juice Of one lemon, the beaten yolks
of two raw eggs and one tablespoonful
of finely chopped parsley. Turn all
into the dish. spread the remainder OF
the mashed potatoes over the oysters
brush with a beaten egg and brown in
a very hot oven and serve at once.

nat VIII prove OF interest.
Cheap Breakfast Mullins.
Use one egg well beatea, one pint
of new milk, one-fourth Aaspoonflil
salt, one medium large teaspoonful
baking powder. Add enough -four to
make stiff dough which will drop
from the spoon. Grease the muffin
pans, drop the cakes into each and
bake at once. Half I'll each pan.
Doughnuts.
Four eggs, well beaten, one cup but
ter, two cupsful sugar, one icup sour
milk, teaspoonfu1 OF nutmeg, one
half teaspoonful OF CINNAMON, one
teaspoonful OF soda dissolved in hot
water. Add enough -four to make a
good rolling dough. Have deep skill
ct or shallow boiling pot aalf filled
with lard. Allow the lard to boil.
Test it first with scrap of dough.
II too hot, set the kettle aside, or re-
duce the flame If gas Is used Turn
dougnuts with a fork; drain then in
sieve placed in dish pan. Sprinkle
them with powdered sugar as they are
taken from the boiling lard. BE very
careful with grease.
Necktie Holder.
Select an oblong embroidery hoop
and wind 1t with pretty ribbons, max
ing neat hanger OF ribbons with
bows tied to the hoop It makes .
very nice tie rack. Another style is
to use two ribbons of different colors.
Start the ribbons together winding
one to the right, the other to the left. |
This crosses he ribbons, making a |
checked design around the hoop. One |
style shows very plain cover, with |

Deserving Of more than ordinary mem
tion IS the splendid act presented by Fred.
Hamin and his Bathing Beauties, in which
extremely good looks. sprightly dancing,
exceptional singing stunning costumes,
and special scenery all contribute in maxi
ing the number veritabie musical COM
cd classic in tabloid form. Tho singing Of
each member OF the quartet was a dis
tinct feature which was appreciated im-
mensely and came as a surprise TO the
audience. for Il so rarely happens in
vaudeville acts OF the show girl type that
voices Of this calibre are heard. Miss
Mansfield the leading soprano Of the act
especially possesses voice of remark
able strength, sweetness and purity which
she uses I'm a way that shows thorough
cultivation. In the rendition OF her solo
number last night she completely capti-
waited her hearers and was compelled to
acknowledge repeated encores. Three diff
ferent stage settings are used and several
changes OF costume are made during the
progress Of the act, making it q delight to
eye and ear alike.
Another hit Of large proportions was
made by Mr. Frank Mccrea. in his truly
remarkable exhibition Of sharpshooting.
with a seeming careiessness In taking
aim he fairly sends chills Of apprehen-
sion up and down the spines Of the audi
ence by using his partner as a human
target in a manner that is startling TO say
the least. For instance one OF the thrill
Ing feats performed by McCrea is TO place
his partner before a white background
with a pipe in his mouth. A match IS
/ lighted and applied TO It and instantly it
is exinguished by a well directed shot.
Tho bowl OF tho pipe is then smashed in
the same way. After that AfcCrea shat-
ters the stem piece by piece until n frag-
ment less than quarter Of an inch in
length is supported between tho lips of
his partner Many other feats of tempting
fate just as thrilling arc accomplished
with an apparent ease that is wonderful.

"a penetrating liquid that gets to the
inner skin, killing the germs while
soothing the healthy tissue.

This note was evidently written Dec.
