and IS more comfortable to handle for
beating and stirring. An earthenware
bowl with q rounded bottom Is better
for mixing the batter than lighter
bowls, because its weight helps to hold
1t In position during the mixing and
beating. For beating eggs, whole eggs,
and even for mixing some batterS, the
Dover eggbeater IS eficient. Many
cooks prefer q wire spoon for beating
egg whites. This utenSn also may be
used for folding beaten egg whites into
mixture and for beating thin batters
smooth.
Foundation Cake.-If butter or other
fat containing water is used, allow
about one and one-half tablespoonfulS
more. Combine half a cupful Of fat
with one and one-han cupfuls of sugar.
and add alternately the dry ingredients,
which have been mixed and sifted
together, and are composed Of three
cupfuls of sifted soft-wheat flour, four
teaspoonfuls Of baking powder, one
and one-half cupfulS of sugar and one
fourth teaspoonful Of salt Add one
cupful of milk gradually. If too much
is added at first it will dissolve the
sugar and the fat will separate. Add
half teaspoonful Of favoring, fold in
the well beaten egg whites and pour
Toured pans, taking care that 1t Is
spread evenly. If the cake is baked
in q thick loaf, the oven heat should
be very moderate. If baked as cup
cakes or in thin layers, the oven should
be a little hotter. This recipe makes
two thick or three thin layers.
An ice cream layer cake Is just what
its name stands for. 1t is a layer cake
that is filled between its layers with
sheets of ice cream. The top OF the
cake may be frosted and garnished
with fresh or candied fruit, whipped
cream piped on through a garnishing
tube, or anything that will resist tenn
perature changes. The layers OF cake
should be well chilled in the re-
frieerator before serving time, and the
ice cream should be one Of those
rich in eggs and stiffened with little
gelatin in order to resist the warmth
of the room Fer the same reason
the ice cream layers should be about
half an inch thick. If these directions
are followed, you will have success
when serving ice cream layer cake.
A cake twelve inches square will yield
thirty-six pieces. One gallon OF ice
cream will serve thirty people. One
quart of ice cream will serve about
eight people.

PLEASING THE MAN

A T home he may like to scatter ashes

If you would see the host beam with
satisfaction, keep decks cleared in the
kitchen; learn to remove and stack
dishes neatly, quickly, and above all
things, charge the mind with all details
necessary for the service of each course
so that when once you sit down at table
you may stay there instead of fiutter-
ing about. adding this and lettering
that. Broken service always confuSes.
Better to present foods with utmost
simplicity and order, emitting the extra
frills. In a word do the task as
the man hatters himself he would do it,
were it his own particular job.
We know, Of course, that 1t Is O
mark of efficiency to wash pots and
pans as we go; to dispose of little scraps
and Feelings before detected, and to
avoid last minute preparation wherever
possible This for the sake of our own
serenity and craftsmanship. Yet when
these details are neglected, few realize
how Second-rate our performance seems
to the business man, accustomed to
files and Office systems.

There from 4 o'clock until dinner
time, smart ladies are driving up and
down on the promenadeS In the larger
and some of the smaller towns, while
the young men lounge about the
sidewalk and salute them. Did you
know that before the middle of the
nineteenth century there was q proviso
in all marriage contracts Of wealthy
FIorentines that the husband should
take his wife for drive in the Cascine
for two hours every day?
In Venice naturally the gondola takes
the place of the carriage. But, curious
ly. very few families own their own.
The gondolaS usually belong to the
gondoliers and are hired together with
them. Yet the fittings belong to the

time and energy that could be more
profitably employed. Every one enjoys
homemade bread and cake, of course,
but now modern baking methods can
hardly be improved upon. Delicious
little rolls may be had at almost any
local bakery, and when heated for a
few moments in the oven they melt
like butter In ones mouth. There are
also light plain sponge cakes and spice
cakes which can be cut and filled with
homemade filling of fruit and topped
with whipped cream to give them q
distinct flavor.
The habit of having to prepare meals
several times over of an evening for
members Of the family who eat sep
arately Is another practice which re-
suits In endless waste Of energy. Some
times this cannot be avoided, but
wherever possible am greatly In favor
of Simplified service and the single
meal which brings the family group
together. 1t saves the housewife many
needless warnings of dishes for laggard
individuals, and the meal that is eaten
in common is generally more leiSurely
than the solitary meal, so often hastily
swallowed a perniciouS habit to
which can be traced many cases of in
digestion and skin conditions.
There is the matter of Sunday

prives her of Sunday outings and dt-

think it is a very good plan to have
| light Sunday dinner every third week
or so. A generous breakfast eaten
around $50 or 10 is likely to discourage
, big appetite at lunch time. Remember
that a continuous round of heavy Sun
day dinners, especially when followed
by little or no exercise, overtaxeS the
system. Those who have tried the
occasional tightening Of the Sunday
menu have found that, in addition to
giving several extra hours of freedom
it is extremely good for the digestive

YOUR TABLE MANNERS

TT Is true that formality Is much less
strict than 1t used to be, but even
50. there are certain definite dishes
that are still selected arbitrarily for
formal dinners. So let me give you the
formal menus first; then simpler ones
win come afterward.
At the most elaborate dinner possible
canapes are served In the living room
with tomato Juice cocktails-or what
ever kind Of cocktails you serve. Din
ner at the table perhaps begins with
clans or oysters, but may equally well
begin with soup; then fish or entree
very seldom BOTH; then the meat
course; then salad and then dessert.
And now these courses in detail:
