Potato _ Noisettes. â€" _ Noisette means nut, a hazel nut, and vegeâ€" | table noisettes are little vegetable spheres the size of a hazel nut cut out with a tiny seoop or round spoon cutter. One advantage of these is that they may be cooked quickly and are decorative. The cooking may ‘be done in ten or twelve minutes. The cutting out takes some time and skill, but reâ€" member that the word used for this cutting is "turning,"‘ and the knack can soon be acquired. The sceoop is buried in the vegetable and turned. Fried potato noisettes are pretty and may be simply cooked in butter until a light brown, or in the pan with the roast, where they must be stirred and turned so as to brown on all sides. Another: way \_â€" _ Potatoes Baked and Stuffed. â€" § Potatoes prepared in a little differâ€" ent way from those sometimes put | in to bake with a roast, in the last | hour, may be done as follows. Peel | as many potatoes of medium size as | are needed, making them egg shapâ€" j ed or pyramidal, or in any form you | please. Cut off one end so that they | will stand and make them with the | roast or by themselves. When done | cut off the top, dip out the pulp, mash, and season, refill the potaâ€" toes, put on caps or paM cut off, set in oven ten minutes, and then pour some melted butter over them before serving. Butter, cream, and egg yolk may be used to season the inside and some finely chopped meat or bacon and some chopped mushâ€" room may be added. These may be made a decorative garnish. ' With the Potato. _ Mashed Potato. â€" There is one essential thing to remember about mashed potato which we so universâ€" ally serve : it is that it must not be allowed to stand aiter it has been mashed and scasoned. It loses all its quality by so doing. So true is this that thousands of people do not know what true mashed potato is. If it must be prepared beforchand. pack it into a ~hot earthen dish, brush the top with butter or egg, and put into the oven for ten minâ€" utes. A tablespoon of cream to each two potatoes and an ounce of butter to four medium potatoes seasons them well, with the salt and perhaps pepper.

A method which is said to be very good for removing all the cream from milk contained in a ‘bottle or like vessel is to use a large round disk of rubber which takes a slightâ€" ly concave shape, it being hung upon three light aluminum rods or wires. Blipping the disk in edgewise and below the surface, it then takes the flat position and can be drawn out with all the cream. l When bedrooms are small, and trunks and hatâ€"boxes have to be pilâ€" ed up in corners, it is a good plan to get four blocks of wood all the same size, and to make a groove in each for the casters to fit in. This raises the bed, and all trunks and hat boxes may be put under the bed, giving more room for moving awbout. When you have a receipt that calls for baking a custard or other delicate egg pudding, which may curdle, try cooking it in this way : Put the baking dish into a steamer on the top of a stove, until it is soâ€" lid, and put it into the oven only long enough to brown it. To protect the fingerâ€"nails when doing rough and dirty work, rub them over with a piece of soap, and when you wash your hands after the task the soap will come out. Garâ€" dening work and blacking the stove are not so disastrous if this is done. To remove grease spots from carâ€" pets, rub on each spot a mixture of Fuller‘s earth, oxgall and water; then rinse this out with clear water and rub as dry as possible with a dry cloth. To preserve a paper document, pictures or a letter, dip them in a strong solution of alum water, dryâ€" ing thoroughly. If the paper is very thick, repeat the process. To clean white buckskin _ and chamois shoes, try lump magnesia. Russet shoes can be cleaned by rubâ€" bing them with a banana peel, acâ€" cording to some. By adding soda before heating it, milk on the verge of souring may be scalded and used for blanc mange or rice or tapioca pudding or squash pies. To make an old fowl tendor, rub the bird all over with lemon juice, then wrap in buttered paper, and steam for two or three hours, acâ€" cording to size. A japanned tray can be freshenâ€" ed with two coats of white paint and a finish of enamel. Never put much sugar in bread; it is only used at all to help the yeast to ferment.
