Either of these dishes mak«;s a
hearty meal if served with gravy or
tomato sauce and affords an economi-
cal and easy method of utilizing left-
overs of meat or vegetables. Where
Irish stew is left from a previous
meal this will bo found a good filling
for a bumblo pie.
For Hot Biscuit.
Any hostess who prides herself on
her delicious biscuit should not fail
to keep them tasty by having them
covered during the meal, so that they
will retain the heat. An attractive
cover can be made of white linen hav-
ing a square center and four pointed
ends. On one of the pointed pieces
two biscuit might be embroidered.
To make the design more realistic
'ou can tint the biscuits brown and
hen outline the edges of them. Or,
in place of using the design, em-
broider the words "Hot Biscuit" on
the linen. Have such a cover ready
for the next plate of hot biscuit you
3erve to your friends and enjoy the
praise you will receive for your
needlework and your culinary ability.
Angel Cake.
Whites of six eggs, one-half tea-
spoonful of cream tartar, one-fourth
teaspoonful soda, one and one-fourth
cupfuls granulated sugar, one cupful
flour, pinch of salt, three-fourths tea-
spoonful of almond extract. Sift the
flour four times. Add salt to eggs and
beat, then add cream tartar and soda
and continue beating until stiff and
dry, .then add1 sugar gradually and
continue beating. Add flavoring and
lastly fold..in the flour lightly,1 but
thoroughly. Bake" forty-five -minutes
in a moderate oven in an unbuttered
angel cake tin.
Rifle'for Baking a Cake.
Divide the time into four parts. Dur-
ing the first part the cake should rise
and not color at all. In the second it
should continue to rise aad begin
faintly to color. In the third it should
become evenly tinted a very light
brown. In the fourth period the heat
may be slightly diminished. If neces-
sary, and the cake will "shrink" a very
little from the sides of the pan. A
covered pan Is useful In some ovens
Do not move the cake during the see
and and third quarters. Let it coo',
