How 1t Started
"MY EYE"
By JEAN NEWTON

THIS exclamation, used to express
L doubt or incredullty mingled with
contempt for the very absurdity OF
the thing, Is not only slang but has
fallen into dlsrepute as yulgarism.
used only by those whose resources
in language are few.
However, in England. the home OF
the expression, It has long been pop
,ular bit Of slang in perfectly good
standing. 1t is used there in its ORIG.
nal form, which is "All my eye and
Betsy Martin" Somehow this has q
less offensive flavor than the abbre-
waited form. And It is in fact so well
regarded across the water that Gals
worthy, in his latest book. has put
into the mouth of charming English
gentleman the exclamation. "All my
eye and Betsy Martin"
The unique story connected with
its origin is as follows: A sailor en-
tering a church where the service was
being held in Latin heard these words :
"Ah, mihi, beate MARITIME" ("Ah. grant
me, blessed Martin"). Not compre-
hendlng what was being said, he did
not stay very long, and later. on
giving an account of the experience.
1t seemed he had retained the first
few words, for he said that he didn't
know what 1t was all about, but that
it seemed to him something like "All
my eye and Betsy Martin"

THE CRUSTY CROUTON

THE use of the crouton both a.
L part Of dish and as a garnlsh-
ment to it is an accomplishment.
The crisp, buttery squares or tri-
angles of bread toasted to an even
brown add as much to the taste as
to the appearance of dish.
In dishes in which the meat Juice
Is unthickened, the bits of toast soak
up the juice and are thus more avail
able for eating. The method of get
ting the most out of the precious
juice should he considered.
Cream toast is only another form
of using the toast in serving this de-
liclous dish. Toast punishment OF
circles, squares, triangles or cubes
are all used to make the dish they
serve 90 farther, look better and
taste good.
The crouton is prepared in various
ways. Bread cut into cubes, very
small ones, and Drowned In the oven,
is spread lightly with butter. Bread
unbuttered is cubed, stirred into but
ter and Drowned in the oven, or un-
buttered. cut into cubes and fried in
deep fat until brown. Then the crOu-
tons are lightly salted and kept in a
warm place until served.
In preparing crOutons the crusts of
bread are always cut off. This is
true of any decorative toast such as
trlangles or other shapes. No matter
what the shape, the bread should be
cut with eXactness and the edges free
from roughness.
A bread pudding may be a dish for
queen If prepared with care and
taste. Try this for Sunday night
supper:
Supper Dish.
Toast as many slices of bread as
needed, until II golden brown on both
sides. Spread, with butter, a touch of
anchovy paste Just enough to lightly
season, salt, sprinkle with cheese and
cover with milk and egg, one cupful
of milk to an egg. Bake.

Perhaps the owl is hungrier now
that he is grown bolder. No doubt the
meadow mice have hurroWed deeper,
sensing at last the coming of Winter.
And where now are snakes and bats.
young birds, grasshoppers. toads and
frogs, on which Master Owl is wont TO
dine? Surely these days must be slim
piCkings for him.
And yet the owl let's me know more
Of him Just now than he has done all
Winter. Every evening, especially on
moonlit nights. after supper l can
hear him by going out for short
walk on the hill. And then he will
be silent, after the first part of the
night, hut like the whippoorwill in
Summer, he sings again with the com
ing of daylight.
Why he does not lift his quavering,
hypocritical. gentle hoot in the hours
of his nightly triumphs ! cannot say.
Perhaps, like the king who was too
busy assigning things. he is too busy
a-gobbling things. In that case his
morning boots would he a sort of
afterdinner speech. last triumphant
warble before he settled down for a
good days sleep.
