OUR DAILY BREAD
I Valuable Suffffeotlona for the Kitch

, . By Katherine Kurtz.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
As the head of the "domestic department.
in every small family knows, it is seemingly
much more difficult to cater for two or three
and avoid all unnecessary expense and waste
cf material than it is to provide for a larger
number. When, for instance, a roast has
been on the table twice in,its original.form,
one must devise some method by which to
disguise it so completely It will not, on its
third advent, be recognized as a too familiar
acquaintance.
For small families,, even when economy is
not to be considered, it is wisest to avoid
large joints, of course; but when there are
but two or three to be provided for, even a
small roast may seem a large joint, especially
when the appetite is fickle/ Therefore, in or
der to enjoy a good roast at its best, the
first serving, it is a good plan to order a
joint when guests are expected, or select i
such joints as will divide to advantage, rather ■
than have a piece that must all be cooked!
at one time. A sirloin of beef is better di
vided into two fine dishes than into one roast
that may have to be warmed over twice.
For the Family of Three. J
i When the family consists of this number,
wh^ch includes the servant, one can manage
to have very nice little dinners throughout
the week by providing a roast for dinner on
Sunday, when a regular hot dinner is deemed
necessary, and a fore or bind quarter of
I lamb for the mid-week dinner. This will
provide you with good soup stock by utilizing
the bones and meat trimmings, fresh or
cooked for soup stock; to this may be added
any left-over cooked vegetables not available
for salads—macaroni, rice, barley, etc.—thus
obtaining a variety of soups without extra
expense. The roast can be served cold on
the second. day for a. change, carving neat,
thin slices at the table at time of serving.
With it, serve a nice hot soup and different
vegetables from those served* with it before,
a salad and a hot dessert. Left-over vege
tables can be utilized for a luncheon dish
or in the dinner salad. Another day a differ
ent soup may be made from the same stock
by changing the seasonings and flavorings
and adding cold baked beans, peas, string
beans or the coarser leaves or stalks of cele
ry. The cold meat can be served in a deep
English beef pie, mince, cromesques of lamb
or a delicate saute of lamb in the chafing
dish. However small the scraps may be,
never throw them away. A family of two or
three can indulge in all sorts of dainty en
trees % and made dishes that are impossible
for a large family with good appetites and
slender income; for a few tablespoonfuls of
chopped meat that cannot be used In any
other way will, in adition to the sauce, a
few bread crumbs or mashed potatoes, make
croquettes enough for three people; these
may be made flat, into cutlet shape; a table
spoonful or two of mashed potato reheated
and used as a border around the edge of the
cutlet and the center filled with any suitable
left-over vegetables, creamed carrots, toma
toes, green peas or corn and you have cut
lets Parker house style; a dish they need not
hesitate to serve as a tempting breakfast dish
or dainty luncheon entree.
A Foreqnarter of Mutton.
If your family is large enough to warrant
it, and the weather told enough to keep meat
in good condition for some days, you will
find this a very economical part of meat if
you can get your butcher to cut it so it will
be cot oraly an economical part but at the
same time give you a choice joint. Havo
him take the shoulder out in a round plate
shaped point with knuckle attached, cutting
dote to the bone of the ribs. Do not let him
hack the shoulder across or chop it at all.
This should be roasted in a good hot oven
and served with stewed onions or onion sauce.
When carving this joint, cut across the mid
dle from the edge to ths bone in the same
manner in which you carve a leg of mutton.
The Rib Roast.
1 Eesides this joint, you have another roast,
unless you rcrfer to cut this piece up into
chops up as far as a part under the shoulder.
From this the breast should be separated and
mae'e into an "Irish stew," or fricassee, while
the breast'ean be made into a "Scotch fluff."
Scotch Huff.
Just cover the breast of mutton with water,
adding a little salt. Set over the fire and
when it comes to a boil place over a more
moderate heat and simmer for three hours.
Then take it up on a platter, draw out the
. bones, make a staffing of bread crumbs,
parsley, thyme, salt, pepper and a little
melted suet or butter; lay this on the meat,
roll it up and fasten with skewers. Cover
thickly with egg and bread crumbs and bake
in a good oven fifteen minutes to each pound
of meat. When it begins to brown, baste
frequently with the i>an drippings. Serve on
a bed of cress.
Keck of Mutton.
The remainder of your forequarter, the
neck, is nice boiled and served with parsley
or caper cauce. Carefully skim the liquor
in which it was boiled and serve as a broth
with either rice, macaroni, barley or veget
ables.
Fillet de Boeuf Chateaubriand.
This might be termed one of the French
table classics, as in the estimation of the
Frenchman, luxury can go no further. Yet
1t is within the power of every house wife to
have this dish as often as she has a roast.
She will find it a very great convenience to
have this 'tid-bit" on hand for the '"uuex
pected." It will keep in cold weather for a
considerable length of time, and for several
days at least If kept on Ice even in warmer
weather.
When selecting your sirloin roast, choose
one that has a thick fillet or tend»rloin. Re
move it as soon as it comes from the mar
ket.
When preparing for the table, cut it across
into steaks an inch thick; trim them and
brush well with melted butter or oil, which
is much better, having no salt in it and
having also another advantage. It makes the
meat more tender. Let the steaks stand &
few minutes, turning often at first, then more
slowly until nicely browned. Season when
done with salt pepper and softened butter.
Garnish with French fried potatoes and serve
with
Chateaubriand Sauce.
Put a half cut of white wine or claret into
a saucepan with a pint of glaze ibrown,
stiff meat jelly); simmer for fifteen minutes.
When ready to serve, thicken with two ounces
of maitre <T hotel butter rubbed smooth with
two tablespoonfuls of brown flour. Let it
come to boiling point. Simmer a moment,
then serve. Lemon juice and parsley may be
used in preference to the wine.

and loud discordant voices, are now favorites
with fashionable women in England. In
many respects they are unique among cats.
They follow their owners as a dog would;
they are exceedingly affectionate and insist
upon being nursed, and they meow loudly
and constantly, as if frying to talk, and to a
deaf person at that. They have much more
vivacity than, usually falls to the lot of cats,
and less dignity. In color they vary from
pale fawn through shades of brown to choco
late. There are two varieties, the temple cats
and the palace cats; about the only difference
between the two varieties being that the pal
ace breed is darker in color.
The only sacred temple cats that ever left
the land of their birth were given to Dr.
Nightingale as a mark of special favor by the
King of Siam. They were named by their
new owner Romeo and Juliet, and are now
the property of Lady Marcus Beresford. They
are very expensive, moderate specimens sell
ing for $50 and finely marked ones bringing
from $7.t to $300.
Now that many ladies of rank in England
Lave catteries, the price of high-bred cats is
constantly increasing. Champion Lord South
ampton, a white Persian owned by Mrs.
Greenwood, was sold for $350, and $2:>rt was
refused for Zaida, a former cat show cham
pion. And in America, of course, as high
prices as anywhere are obtained.
THE ACCENT IDEA IN DRESS.
Society women are now studying the accent
idea in the matter of dressing. A girl of their
own set, whose family met with reverses, is
responsible for this new fad. She not only
receives cash value for original ideas for
gowns, but she is teaching the women of the
smartest set that the accent, to which the
French women pay so much attention, should
in reality not only supply the finishing touch,
buc furnish the keynote of the sown as well.
Some of the most magnificent gowns ever
made for a New York woman have just been
designed for Mrs. John Jacob Astor to wear
while in the south. The mosc novel costume
in the collection is of pastel gray satin crepe
de chine, and both the very full skirt and
bodice are finely accordion pleated. The ac
cent of the gown is the unusual treatment
of the lace which trims it It Is heavy ecru
church lace, the pattern outlined with bits of
turquoise, topaz and exquisite pink corpl
beads. The lace starts from the middle of the
back, goes across the shoulders to the bust
and then falls in two long stole ends behind.
DISHES FOR FORMAL DINNERS.
Haiper's Bazar.
Filet of beef is the meat seen most fre
quently at formal dinners. It is decidedly ex
pensive—about 40 cents a pound. However,
there is no waste to It, and five pounds will
be ample for ten persons. It is larded at
the butcher's; after it is cooked it is to be
laid on a long, narrow platter—a flah platter
will do perfectly—and sliced; then a mush
room aauce is poured over it and ::mall piles
of vegetables arranged about it; at either end

are to be potatoes, cut into btlk; down the
sides are young carrots iv small cubes string
beans, French beaus, and bits of turnip. Ail
these vegetables come canned in glass on
purpose for this use, and it is convenient a:
such a time to buy rather than prepare them.
The shaddock, or grape fruit, sherbet la
new and delicious. It is made by carefully
scooping the pulp from the fruit and separat*
ing it into small pieces. A large pint of
sugar is boiled with a cup of water, a table
spoonful of gelatine dissolved and added, and
when cold the fruit is mixed with the rest
and frozen. It la to be served iv small glass
cups on plates with a coffee spoon on each.
THE NEWEST TABLE LINENS.
Harper's Bazar.
Of course one can put any amount of
money in table linen, and dinner cloths are
to be had with lace or drawn work insertions
to be laid over color: with exquisite colored
monograms; with elaborate woven patterns,
or as plain and shiny as satiu. One's taste
and purse must govern the selection, but iv
a general way, for ordinary dinner parties, it
is safer to buy the best quality of linen with
little or no decoration. One tires of even
the prettiest patterns, and styles change su
rapidly that a handsome and expensive clotu
will look out of date in a short time If its
figures are at all conspicuous, while plain
double damask is always in good taste.
The same ihing in effect might be said of
centerpieces; they would better be intrin
sically beautiful than ornate. Lately embroid
ered pieces have given place to lace, In either
a solid square or circle, or a deep border
on a linen foundation. These may or may
not be laid over color, according to individual
preference and taste. Just now, however,
there seems to be a fancy for having the
table in white, the flowers and possibly the
candles alone being colored.
JENNY LIND LETTERS FOUND.
• A large number of letters from Jenny
Lind have just been discovered in Rome,
written to a lady friend resident in Italy,
and covering a period of thirty years, from
1845 to 1874, says the London News. It is said
that there are more than a hundred in all,
and are iv ihe most intimate and unconven
tional terms, giving the great prima donna's
candid opinion of much of the music and
many of the musicians of her time. The let
ters have been purchased by an Italian pub
lisher, who proposes to Issue them to the
world very shortly. It is hoped, however,
that they will be judiciously edited. It will
add a new terror to life if private letters,
never intended for the public, and probably
written with a freedom adopted only in cor
respondence with an intimate friend, can be
printed without suitable revision. In this
country It is assumed the copyright would be
with thfc deceased singer's executor, namely,
her husband, Otto Goldschmidt.
