making a number of croquettes. One
good croquette maker says she uses
as much water as egg and can see no
difference.
The white sauce to use in binding
croQuettes should be thicker than the
ordinary white sauce. Use half cup

salt. four tablespoonfuls of butter and
a pint of milk. When the butter is

mixed pour on the milk; cook until

It follows that he who would taste

Torcello must not visit 1t in crowd.
He must come alone. or at most with
one or two sympathetic companions,
and he must have plenty OF time to

not be apprehended in few hurried
moments. They do not strike hasty

entirely to their slow, insidfous pene-
tration. Neither the cathedral nor
Santa Fosca are in fact nearly 30 old,
In their present condition, AZ they
seem to be. One would willingly
enough accept them as of early Chris
tian date, for both the basilica and
the round church are built on ancient
fines and conform to early architec-
tural forms. The first cathedral on
this spot was that built In mid-seventh
century by Altinum refugees; possi-

survive. In 864 and again In zoos the
building was seriously dealt with, and
the first restoration amounted to q

Wv they destroyed Altinum
among other cities The
folk OF Altinum took refuge on an To-
land In the lagoon and founded Tor
cello. In the pressure OF those miser-
able days. when the German invaders
almost succeeded In destroying the
civilization which Greece and Rome
had slowly built up during q thousand
years of wise labor. the lagoon islands
became place OF retreat for various
harried peoples, who Ned to them for
shelter, as In our days 80 many dis
tressed Relgians have fed to Holland
and England. writes Sir Martin
Conway In Country life. That
was how Venice and Malamocco
were called into being: but Torcello
was the first of these cities OF refuge.
II was likewise for long time the
chief city of the lagoons: the first
Doge whose name Is remembered had
his seat OF government there.
Venice, for all it's antiquity, throbs
with contemporary life. To go from
1t to Torcello is to plunge into the
past. The very transit by gondola
matches also that transition. From

the city OF the dead, and SO over the

About the time when the ambo was

underwent q further restoration. Its

Torcello had lost its Importance and
no longer could command the re-

1t was, however, at this time that
the little church OF Santa Fcsca re
