Of serving them should be studied by
every good housewife. Eggs in them

gest a plain boiled egg because of the
sulphur it contains, but few fail to en-
joy eggs cooked in any way without
the she'll None but those that are
known TO be perfectly fresh should be
used in cookery.
To discover whether they are fresh,
drop each egg carefully into cold wa
ter; if the large end turns up and the
egg floats it is not good. but if it sinks
to the bottom Of the vessel it is per-
fectly fresh. When boiling eggs always
put them on I'm cold water and directly
the water boils the egg will be perfect
~ done.
Try steamed eggs, prepared as follows:
Butter a deep pie tin, and break care
fully into It as many eggs as re-
quired. Sprinkle these with salt and
pepper, and little bits Of butter; place
he tin in a steamer over boiling water
till the eggs are cooked. Again. brown
ed eggs will be appreciated as a change
at breakfast. Allow two ounces OF
butter to every five eggs. Break the
eggs into a buttered dish, season with
salt and little nutmeg Melt the
butter in a frying pan. and directly II
is quite hot pour IT over the eggs. Shake
the dish that the butter may run
