(From a Reformer)
1T IS generally conceded that the
main objection to limburger cheese is
the pungent odOr. To dissipate this,
slice off the outside of the blocks, as
you may use them. for there is found
what may offend your olfactories
Lay the slice in a saucer and pour
over il little hot water for g. few
seconds. Then turn off the water and
the depravity of the smell is gone and
what remains seems doubly delicious
on that account When the oursides
are thus used the rest of the blocks

would be tickled to death, but we
