Thoughtlessness is an unpsrdon-
able fault. There is no excuse for
neglecting the little courtesies and
kindnesses which make the world
a better place in which to live. The
more we think of others and try to
help them, the brighter our own
pathway will be.

 My Own Recipes
 Fish may be fried in deep fat or in just q little fat in the frying pan. If fried in deep fat it should be dipped in croumbs. egg, and crumbs and treated like croquettes. If fried in the frying pan the fish should be salted and peppered and dipped in flour, cornmea1 or very fine crumbs. Small fish, such as herring, are best adapted to this method of cooking.
 Flannel Cakes

 2 tablespoons butter
