4

Wash 2 pounds neck of mutton, cut off fat and cut into small squares. Put meat in saucepan with 3 pints of water, set over quick fire. Boil and skim frequently. When scum comes up quite white put in cup of pearl barley and skim again. Cut up carrot, turnip and celery in small pieces and add to the soup, also chopped parsley, salt and pepper. Serve without straining. MRS. S. BROWN.

5

Melt in the frying pan 2 ounces of butter, and in this put down to brown 2 small onions, 1 turnip, 2 carrots, 2 stalks of celery, all cut up fine, and put into the liquid in which the ox tail has been parboiled. Add a teaspoon of extract of beef of good quality, and when this has dissolved thicken to taste with browned flour. Add a dessertspoon of Worcestershire sauce, boil up, strain and add the cut up ox tail and a glass of sherry wine.

MRS.H.ELSTER. Oyster Stew.

7

After all bits of shell are removed from a pint of oysters and their liquor has been strained, let the liquor come to a boil and remove all scum, then add a teaspoon of butter, salt and pepper to taste and 1 pint milk. After the broth comes to a boil and is free from scum, put in oysters, and the moment the edges curl remove from fire and serve at once. One cracker rolled fine and added to the broth before serving is an improvement. MRS. W. ROSENBLATT.

One quart soup stock, 1 cup shelled peanuts boiled and strained, 1 cup cream, a little parsley, 1 tablespoon butter, salt and pepper. Add cream just before serving. MRS. L. M. STERN.

Boil artichokes until very tender. Scrape leaves and rub through colander with the hearts. Boil slowly in 1 cup soup stock, add 1 cup sweet cream and a large piece of butter. Season with pepper and salt.
