,HERE was once an old woman

"HERE was once an old woman
famous for a certain kind OF
cake she could make and which
none of her n%eighbors could equal o
duplicate, for when asked for the
recipe she would only and always re-
ply: Why. you tax three eggs
Being expert in cooking, 1t was beyond
her comprehension that any one with
such a specification could fail to know
how to do all the rest.
In obtaining the following recipes
for preparing potatoes the representa-
tive Of THE SUNDAY L met with
something OF the same experience, for
to the skilled mind of II. Rapp, maitre
d'hotel Of the Hotel Savoy, il seemed
incomprehenslble that any M could
fail in cooking lust potatoes" But
as potatoes supply a definite portion Of
every meal served and as in the ma
tority OF homes they are varied 36b
days a year from boiled to mashed and
from mashed to baked or German
fried, It Is important for the successful
housewife to know that many things
can be done to make potatoes an ac-
ceptahle item Of the menu
And so Mr.. Rapp. who has long
been at the head OF the Savoy dining
department.. consented to prepare es-
pecially for THE SUNDAY Sun the fol-
lowing potato recipes:
PorAro Az GRArIN-Have potatoes
freshly boiled. peeled, hashed. placed
in a saucepan with a little grated nut
meg, salt and pepper: cover them with
a good. heavy cream or cream sauce;
let Il boil. stirring once In n while
with a wooden poon. Butter the bot
tom Of a baking dish, transfer the po-
ta'oes TO II, spread the surface with
freshly grated Swiss cheese, baked
until golden brown.
STUFFED PorAro SUzETTE-Select
even sized potatoes; bake IS minutes:
cut them ~lengthwise, scoop out the in
'eriors into a bowl. season with grated
nutmeg. freshly ground white pepper.
sat, chopped parsley. chopped ham
and tongue. a little cream and butter.
Nix well. then Ill up the shells.
Spread over them a little grated Par
mesan cheese; bake In very hot oven
until very brown.
SWEET POTATOES, SOUTHERN STYLE
Have potatoes boiled; cut In round
slices half an inch thick; fry them in
butter for n few minutes, then trans
FER them into a baking dish. cover
with syrup and brown molasses; bake
In a very hot oven s minutes. This
Dish served with roast Virginia ham
Is delicious.
POTATOES LYoNNAIsE-Have potatoes
freshly cooked, peeled and cut In round
'rces very thin: fry gently a finely
sliced onion until tender: then add the
potatoes; season with salt and pepper
tossing once In a while. and give a
nice omelette form. Let them acquire
d very good golden color. Turn onto
q hot dish and serve with broiled
lamb or mutton chops.

on a costly velvet rug, LIGHT blue and
pink in color. A friend who was call
Ing OF her at the time quoted her
fears by assuring her that she would
AK It so that not the slightest stain
would be left"
First she had a quart OF fine table
salt sent up at once. Sitting the salt
through her fingers she covered the
ink spot entirely. To all appearances
there was nothing hut a pile OF fine
table salt or the rug.
over this she placed a heavy chair.
cautioning the guest not to disturb 1t
nor to allow the maid to do 80. After
promising to return the next afternoon
to finish the Job she went chcerfully
about her own affairs.
True to her word she made her ap-
peafance the following afternoon. and
calling for a dust pan and whisk broom
removed the salt. There was not the
slightest stain Of ink on the rug. The
salt having been carefully sifted on
the spot had slipped into the pile and
absorbed all the ink. OF course the
salt, except a thin layer on the out
side Of the pile. was as black as ink
could make 1t.
This method Of preventing ink stains
IL as effective as It Is simple. The
secret Of success lies In acting
promptly. having fine salt. sitting 1t
on the spot no slowly and gently that
II slips into the goods. and allowing 1t
to remain undisturbed until 1t Is bone
dry. Then It may be safely removed
