    • CHICKEN POT PIE

      Stew gently a nice chicken. Season with salt and pepper and thicken the gravy with a tablespoonful of flour, mixed smooth with a piece of butter, size of an egg. Have ready some biscuit dough cut in pieces an inch square; drop this into the gravy, having previously removed the chicken to a hot platter. Boil fifteen minutes. Lay on the platter with the chicken, pour over the gravy and serve.

      STEAMED EGGS

      Butter a tin plate and break in your eggs, set in a steamer, place over a kettle of boiling water and steam till the whites are cooked.If broken into buttered patty-pans they look nicer by keeping their form better. Or,still better, if broken into egg cups and steamed until done, they are very nice. Cooked in this way there is nothing of their flavor lost.

      CHICKEN POT PIE

      Have ready biscuit dough cut in square pieces, and bake in the oven. Split them and put on a platter, and our your gravy over them, putting chicken in the centre.1a

    • PICKLED EGGS - Mrs. A. Taylor

      Boil eggs very hard and remove the shell. Take one teaspoonful each of cinnamon, allspice and mace; put in a little muslin bag in cold water; boil well, and if it boils away add enough to make one-half pint when the spices are taken out; add one pint of strong vinegar; pour over the eggs. If you want them colored put in some beet juice.
