SOME COOKERY FRILLS
POTATO SOUP 10 IMPROVED ~
a DASH or VINEGAR.
individual Pate 10 Out Of Date-De'
IIclous Salad Of Different Nuts
and Fruits and Shredded
Celery.

The usual insipidity Of potato soup
is improved by adding q dash Of vine
gar just before serving. AS all may
not like the favor the cruet can be
passed.
All fruit salads are improved by
marinating in French dressing, though
later served with mayonnaise.
Instead of the individual pate, 1t is
more popular now to pass one or two
large pates, each guest serving her
self. Fill with mushrooms, oysters or
creamed sweetbreads.
Biscuits or French rolls for formal
use are more diminutive than ever.
The former should be the size of a
50%-centpiece and a quarter-inch thick.
A delicious salad was made from
different nuts, white grapes, a little
shredded grape fruit, pineapple cut
into cubes and shredded celery. Mask
in mayonnaise or serve with a cream
dressing.
When a boiled egg is the usual
breakfast dish. vary it by breaking it
raw into the eggcup and cooking in
hot water to the desired consistency.
The flavor is quite different than
when cooked in the shell.
Fingers of bread about four inches
long, quarter of an inch wide and the
same thickness buttered thickly and
Drowned In a quick oven are delicious
to serve with boiled eggs.
Salad is now usually passed in a
salad dish, but when served directly
on the individual plates an appetizing
and artistic effect a be had by ma
king nests of shredded lettuce or en-
dive, in which are eggs made OF
cream cheese colored with spinach
juice and sprinkled thickly with pap
rika or black pepper. Cover with
mayonnaise.
In baking a cake, stint the -four In
the batter and you will have a much
more tender cake.
Good c~ranberries cannot be made II
the sugar is allowed to boil in with
the berries. After the cranberries are
soft and strained through a colander
add a scant pound of sugar to a quart
of berries, bring to a boil and coon

pint of boiling water on the berries

For Silk Cushions.

II you have silk-eovered cushions in
your house, you must have noticed
how often the feathers or down comes
through, giving the pillow a fuzzy,
unsightly appearance. This could have
been avoided, and can be the next
time, by ironing the inside OF the silk
with an iron that has been rubbed
with shoemaker's wax.
This ironing, done before the pillow
is made up, will act as a sort of thin
varnish on the silk, and will prevent
the feathers from working through.
