the whipped cream too rich. Another
method Is to use white cake icing, put
ting on each half of the cake first a
layer of Icing, then a layer of straw
berries, and last n generous coat Of
icing.
shortcake Not Merely a Dessert.
Strawberry shortcake for breakfast,
made with or without plain cream,
makes q delicious variant of the or
binary diet. With 1t should be served
either a glass OF milk or q dish of cot
tage cheese TO make 1t a more CON-
fast or lunch for children. as well as
a very satisfactory change for Sunday
night supper.
A shortcake of any description is so
hearty a dessert that a somewhat
lighter meal than usual should pre-
cede It. When there Is a scant por-
ton Of potato or rice, some recooked
meat to use up, or a meatless meal to
consider, strawberry shortcake Is an
appropriate dessert. It should never
be planned as the end of a long, heavy
dinner, when the appetite has been
fully satisfied before the sweet course
Is reached.
Any good biscuit rule may be used.

Perfect strawberry shortcake, made
at home in the simple old-fashioned
way, Is more tempting than the most
elaborate connections of bakers or
hotel chefs. Biscuit shortcake, by all
means" Is the masculine verdict a lit
tie shorter" than usual, perhaps, the
housewife may decide. but otherwise
simply biscuit dough, the llghtest and
best she knows how to produce, topped
on with luscious whole berries,
whipped cream, icing, or egg whites.
Double instead of Split Biscuits.
Individual shortcakes are attractive
dough may be cut out with a very
large biscuit cutter or made into
squares. Instead of splitting one large
cooked biscuit, two thinner rounds Of
dough may be baked together, IL the
lower one Is first buttered to enable
the cook TO slip them apart.
The strawberries, after washing and
hulling. may be cut In halves and
eprinkled with sugar shortly before
the biscuit dough Is made. A few
perfect whole berries should be saved
to decorate the top layer. The others
should be merely cut. not crushed nor
mutllated.
Hull and trim a few at a time, drop
for a moment only Into a bowl OF
clean. cold water. so that the sand
sinks to the bottom while the fruit
floats ON top. then skim of into a
colander TO drain dry. II a whole
quart of hulled berries Is turned into
q pan Of water some Of the berries
become soft and lose their fine flavor
before the entire quantity car be
rinsed and taken out. The sand from
the upper ones often settles on those
beneath. The same Is true when any
fruit or vegetable Is merely put In a
colander and thrust under running
water.

preference. The dessert will be sx.
Nent IL II merely consists OF the
split, buttered biscuit covered In the
center and oil top with berries from
which the fragrant juice IL beginning
TO spread. Whipped cream, sweetened
and favored with vanilla, Is perhaps
the most quickly prepared finish for
the shortcake, II there Is plenty Of
Cream on hand. Beaten egg-whites,
sweetened as for a meringue, make
an admirable substitute for cream.

The fight waged by the repre-
sentatives of the street railway
companies centered on the possi-
bility that a reduction in fare on
the Capital Traction Company lines
would lead to establishment of diff
ferent fares on the lines of the
two companies.
The Commission. in opening its
hearing, admitted the Washington
sit as co-defendant with the Cap
jtal Traction Company.
The earnings of the latter COM
pany were set forth. by Clayton
as 9.61 per cen for March. 1L32
for April. 11.46; for May, $50 for
June, 7.S1 for July. 1893 for Au-
gust, and 7.ss for September. The
average was declared to be s.2s
per cent. The company gave the
earnings for July as rs. August
as 6.s, and September as 10 per
cent.

Railway and Electric Company.
William F. Ham, president, gave
the earnings as SIT for March.
4.s3 for April. 5.s6 for May, 2.49 for
June, 3.06 for July and 3.22 for
August. This averages 427 per
cent.
Charles T. Clayton. Of the Column
bia Heights Citizens Association,
argued against consideration of the
combined earnings and combined
valuation of the two companies in
arriving at a rate of fare on the
ground that the power to do this
was not contained in the act Gre
ating the Commission. Hamilton
answered by pointing out that this
Commission had the same discre-
tionary powers as the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
In concluding the argument for
the companies. Ham asserted that
the only alternative in case of re-
duced fare would be a coming sys-
tenn whereby th6 long distance
riders of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company lines would
pay for this extra service.
The zoning system plan was op-
posed by A. f. Seymour, represent
ing the Chamber OF Commerce; by
Evan H. Tucker. OF the Northeast
Citizens Association. and by Mai.
d. s. Fletcher. of the Takoma Park
Citizens Association. Fletcher
warned that a zoning system would
lead citizens to forego riding on
the cars.
