Indian received corn directly from

goes that young brave, who was
looking for gift that would help his
people, hid himself in the forest for

In carving the broiIers, insert the

rack in position. Remove the broil-

the broilers, which have marinated

so that they do not touch each
other.
Place the broiler directly under

which a dash Of paprika and ono

loosen Them from the breast. After
accomplishing this, the entire mass,

carefully scrape and push the flesh
from the breast bone and remove
it. Remove the rib bones, out off
the legs at the second joint, and
cut through the sinews at all joints.
This makes the bird much more

The broilers are pow ready to be

method of cooking them can be so
simple, particularly adapting itself
to hot.weather cookery.
since broiling is a rapid method
Of cookery in which the heat is ap-
piled at high temperature, 1t Is
necessary that the poultry for broil-
ing shall be young and tender. Hens
lay most abundantly in the early
spring and summer. hence the best
season for spring chicken and broil-
ers-nameIy, chickens from two TO
ak months old-is from May to
September or October. Such broilers
weigh from one and one.half to two
pounds. Incubators are being
called into use for Matching also,

possible to get broiIers almost the
year round.
Poultry that is to be broiled must
first be dressed, drawn, and clean

Charlotte Russo may have i'm
pressed you as a dainty bit >oi
dessert, something unquestionably
delightful. and yet so mysteFiously
created that only an expert dare
attempt it. But there is nothing
mysterious about It; in fact, 1t Is
simple to make perfectly, and the
choice of the hostess determines
the variety OF charlotte she shall
make.
Now. all the charlotte russes are
made from e. foundation filling

over the heat until the gelatine ID
thoroughly dissolved. then add to

the heat and set the pan in a bowl
Of ice water or in the refrigerator
until the moisture is thoroughly
cool and thickened slightly.

added at this point IL desired.
Then return the charlotte russo to
the refrigerator for about five
minutes to stiffen slightly, remove,
beat up with a spoon, and it is
ready to use. This recipe makes
six servings, but for a large mold
the recipe should be doubled.
