FILING RECIPES.
Method by Which Unsatisfactory Ones
May Be Eliminated.

May Be Eliminated.
Recipes clipped from periodicals OF
newspapers may be filed thus:
A five cent package Of white court
plaster. a scrap book and a pair of
shears are the equipment. Any old
book will do If you haven't q scrap
book.
Snip the sheets Of our plaster into
strips one-quarter of an inch wide and,
say. an inch long, and lay them in the
first page Of the scrap book. When
reading have the scrap book and scis.
sors at hand, clip as you read and
paste the clippings in the scrap book
with the strips Of plaster.
Use two strips to each clipping and
put them on the long way Of the strip.
half on the clipping and half on the
leaf. 80 that the clipping is hinged to
the page. You have no idea how
many clippings you can get on a page
in this way, slipping them half under
each other. If you care to. You can
read through the bit Of adhesive plas
ter that overs any print.
The great advantage Of this plan Is
that one can take a recipe out. either
to file permanently or throw away
without marring the page. The scrap
book may be divided into subheads for
meats. soups, hot breads. fruit des
serts, buildings and the like and filed
under these headings.

The New Years Supper.

The hostess who entertains a few
friends on New Years I've should Sc.
lect a simple repast for the evening.
as usually supper is served late.
The following menu was used at a
seeing the old year out" party last
season and was found very satisfac.
tory:
Lobster Chops with Cream Sauce.
Hot Rolls. . Olives Sailed Nuts.
Orange Sponge. Little Cakes.
Olives with Whipped Cream.
If a fresh lobster is unavailable the
canned fish may be used instead.
Open jar or can, turn the contents
out on a fiat dish and set aside for a
couple of hours. This aerates and re-
moves the distinctive taste by which
canned goods are often recognized.
Make a sauce, putting two tablespoon
fuls Of butter and two tablespoonfuls
of -four in a saucepan. Heat until
blended: then add gradually one cup
full Of rich milk and stir until thick.
Season with salt and pepper and a
pinch Of mace, cover and cook for five
minutes; then add two cupfuls Of the
lobster meat cut fine. n teaspoonful
Of lemon juice, one tablespoonful of
chopped parsley and the beaten yolks
of two eggs. Stir until the mixture is
a little thicker: then spread on a dish
and set away until very cold.
Shape into small outlets or. If pre-.
ferred. into c%roquettes. If difficult to
mold dust the hands with a little -four
should much be used it will impair the
delicacy Of the finished dish. Put the
whites in a saucer. add a tablespoonful
Of warm water and beat with a fork

Something Missing.

When Irving wanted to be nasty he

hand once His patience with the rank
and file was extraordinary. but where
a rebuke was deserved lrving's biting
sarcasm was quite up t the occasion.
There was in one production u super
who, though he had only a couple OF
ines to speak, made his entrance in
such a way as to lead one to believe he
was sustaining the leading role. and
his behavior to his fellow actors was
equally understandable. Irving soon
got on the track of this man and ran
him to earth at rehearsal. In due time
the super entered. haughtily saying:
My lord. the carriage is waiting"
Let's have it louder" said Irving.
The man repeated it in a louder tone.
whereupon Sir Henry demanded that
it should be repeated again still louder
Yet again did he make the super re
peat it. and louder still, and yet again
was the same demand made. The man
was becoming enraged and at last
Shrieked out the words.

Latin Namee Neoded.

What - called a cruller In New York
ID called 4 doughnut in Boston, and
what Is called a crulier in Boston is
called a doughnut in New York. And
so on through the list. There is no
more certainty or txity about the pop
ular names Of dishes than there is
about the popular names of flowers
and birds. At least thirty different
flowers are known by the name Of
"mayt1Ower" in the United States. The
maylower of New England is the ar
butus of New York and the wax myr.
tie of the south. TO obtain certainty
In such matters it is necessary to have,
a scientific classification and a Latin
name. When you speak to a botanical
gent about Il "mayf1Ower" he knows
not what you mean. but if you refer to
he Epigaea repens he knows exactly
what you are talking about. Conse-
quently we shall never have any Ger
tainty about what a dish is until we
have q regular scientific classification
with Latin names, for all dishes. In
that case the botanical name" Of Yer

thing like mushius commandments and

Pics Feet In the Pit.

Salaries at the early New York thea.
tiers were extremely small. But II the
salaries were small so were the prices
of admission. One shilling, 12h cents,
let you into the gallery or the pit, and
II you didn't have the shilling the mer-
cenary management forced you.to pay
IL cents. So the boys got the habit Of
changing their money at a ishwoman's
on the corner. who for Is cents oblig
ingly gave them q shilling and q pigs
foot They handed in the shilling at
the door and during the course Of the
evening presented the well picked bone
to the management by way Of some
unfortunate in the pit or on the stage.

a married woman is not entitled to

due to the fact that mOnOgrams OF
two letters are usually more artistic
than when three letters are used and
certainly easier to decipher.
