Delicious Cheese Rolls

The salad course without the accom-
paniment of cheese and crackers is quite
impossible. A nice way to prepare cream
cheese so that It Is soft enough TO spread
on toasted crackers is the following: Have
ready a good-slzed bowl, into which you
can put n cream cheese and mash IL with
a silver fork, The mixture should be well
mashed SO that 1t will be perfectly smooth
Now add two tablespoonfuls of sweet
cream, n teasponful of chopped Chives or
olives. plain or stuffed; n quarter teaspoon
ful of salt and enough paprIka to make
IL quite pink
Roll into small balls garnish with half
of an English walnut on either side like
bonbons and serve on the plate with the
salad, or separately, as you fancy. 1t may
also be used on romaine salad with
French dressing.

Easter Cakes

Did you ever make the klddies any
Easter cakes? These are the cutest things
you ever saw, for they are baked right
inside the shell of the eggs which are
used in making the cake.
Just remove the contents of the eggs
and keep the shells unbroken, clean them
out through the hole in the end, and
shake olive oil around them to grease the
inside Now fill with any good cake
batter-also through the hole which, by
the way should be about the size Of a
10.cent piece.
Do not fill the shell entirely; just about
two-thirds is full enough. stand the
shells upright in baking pan and cook
as usual Let them cool thoroughly be-
fore serving. The kiddies will be more
than surprised when they see the little
cakes inside of the shells. 1t Is a dainty
surprise for an Easter luncheon, too, IL
the top of the hole is closed with differ
ent colored icings.

Fish Au Gratin

Baked Eggplant

Something new in eggplants" is egg
plant gratin. II isn't the ordinary au
gratin arrangement calling for cheese but
it's a very simple way to dress the deli
cious vegetable. Slice your eggplant into
rather thick sections, then coat with
tomato or white sauce.
Bake for Is or 20 minutes in mod
erately hot oven. The best way TO treat
these thick slices of eggplant In order
20 extract all the water from them. is to
put them under a heavy weight for an
hour or so. Plenty OF salt should be
Bp=inlkled on the slices.

Sparkling Glassware

If you include your cut glassware in the
general spring housecleaning, here is a
simple way to make 1t sparkle: 1mmerse
the article in the dlshpan, or something
large enough to accommodate it. Use n
soft nail brush so that there will be no
crack or design left unbrushed. Warm
water white soap and a few drops of
ammonia added to the rinslng water will
do the rest. Try 1t.

Garnish for Game

If you decide to have some fancy
game at your formal dinner party, very
smart way to dress up the bird is to
garnish 1t with orange or lemon straws.
To make them. cut the fruit peel into
narrow strips.
Have ready syrup of granulated
sugar and water; a cupful of each is
the right proportion. Put the rinds into
the boiling syrup and cook until quite
clear. Remove, roll in coarse white sugar,
lay on sheets of brown paper and lay
crisp.

 in others evidence leads to the con-
 clusion that the operation was intend-
 ed to relieve pain caused by wounds received in battle. Since the favOrite weapon of the Inca people was the
 sling, and clubs were common, it is not surprising that the skulls of many soldiers should have needed the relief that came from sI1iIlful trepan-
