When making gravies Of eithes milk
or water always have the liquid boil

Make the thickening, using about ono
tablespoonful Of -four for one pint OF
gravy, by placing the flour In cup,
adding cold water, a little in a cup,
and stirring with a fork until smooth
and of the consistency of thick cream.
Then comes the secret of smooth

spoonfuls of the boiling liquid into the
thickening, stir together and turn turf
slowly into the hot liquid, stirring con.
stantly until 1t hollis up we'll, when It

on which she will embroider a large
