CHEESE CAKE.

(Fr0m Mrs. w. H. B., HyattSuiHe. }
For Mrs. G. L. NJ. Arlington:
Your request for cheese pie con-
tanning the ingredients you men,
toned seems to flt the recipe n
have always called cheese cake.
You can put it in a glass pie
plate if you wish.
Frozen Philadelphia cheese cake
or pie: Two tablespoons gelatin
tplainD, u cup cold water. 2 egg
yolks.l 4 teaspoon salt, " cup
milk, l cup sugar. u teaspoon
vanilla or lemon juice, 4 small
packages cream cheese, 2 egg
whites, pint whipping cream.
Soften gelatin in cold water.
Beat egg yolks slightly, add sugar,
salt and milk. cook over boiling
water until batter is consistency
of custard (this is not very thick ;.
Add gelatin to hot mixture and
stir until we'll dissolved. Cool
until mixture begins to thicken.
Break cheese into small particles
with fork and add to mixture.
Add vanilla and beat batter with
egg beater until smooth, light and
fluffy. Whip the cream, beat the
egg whites stiff and dry and fold
each into cheese mixture. Line
pan with graham cracker crust
and pour batter into this crust.
Let stand in refrigerator until
firm. Keep refrigerated when not
being served.
Graham cracker crust: Twenty
four graham crackers. 70 cup
sugar. "a cup butter. ! teaspoon
vanilla.
Crush graham crackers and add
sugar. Melt butter and add
vanilla to melted butter. Pour
over graham cracker and sugar
mixture and work into a con-
sistency to line a glass dish. This
recipe is large enough to serve
about 20 and generally fills two
average-sized glass pie plates.
This makes a very delicious
cake Cor pie) and I intended to
send it in when some one re-
quested a cheese cake recipe. The
replies at that time, I noted. gave
recipes containing -four and I
knew these were not as good as
the above recipe, whcih Incl
dentally originally came from the
dairylands of Wisconsin. I got
it from my mother in Indiana.
This is my first contribution
to this interesting feature of The
Star, and my neglect in not send
ing the recipe before makes me
realize what an industrious
group the RICH contributors are.
1t requires some effort and time
from a busy day to write letter
and makes one appreciate all the
valuable information available
through RICH.

CLEANING FRYING PAN.
From E. P. K, RockDiHe.)
To Mrs. j. w. S. of Arlington:
Try boiling your frying pan in
strong soda water. Keep the
handle out.
I do not know what effect boil
ing soda water will have on
aluminium. but know it worked on
copper-bottom steel because 1
tried it. Had to do some scraping
with copper wire sponge or
whatever you call those copper
things you buy in the 10-cent
store. There is also a sponge
that is made out of steel wool and
gets soapy when it is wet and you
use it.
Try cleaning it every time you
use it. Then perhaps it will not
take so long to get it clean.

Texan Has tO3-Year
Copy OF Advertiser
Stute's Third Oldest
Newspaper Was Robid
Wing; Cold To War

From Roma, Texas this week
comes an interesting letter from
a son of former Mississippian
telling about a 103-year-old copy
of the Lexington Advertiser, Mis-
sissippi's third Oldest newspaper
which he owns.
The old copy of The Advertiser
in the possession of Virgil N. Lott,
Of Roma, was dated January l6,
l847, and is, as far as the editor
knows, the Oldest copy of The
Advertiser in existence, being
published ten years after the
original paper was established.
If any of our readers hold older
copies we'd like very much to
know about them.
