The epicure knows that the shuulder is better than any part of the animal ex- cept the chops. The trouble is that but few know how to cook It. Sponge itoff i-ajiefully with cold water before -.•^(k tyinc it into shape, for it is necessary to thoroughly ileanae a piece of meat before using it. Remember the but- cher bas handled It. Fasten it with a trussing need!e. tie into shape, and it is ready for the pan. A .shoulder U not near so tough as a leg of mut- ton, and is therefore better for roast- ing. All the toogher parts should he boiled or cooked in boiling water. A, boiled shoulder of mutton with caper Muce makes a very good dinuT diah •od a wholesome one. If you wish to boil it, the water mttbt be boiling before you put it in. so as to coagulate the albumen on the out- side. In order that the juii-ea may not •scape. If you prefer to bake it. the pan that you put it in mast l-e very hot for the same reason. Put one tea- spooaful of salt in the pan not on the meat, for salt dratvs water from meat as soon as it toui^hes it. and Aast it over with a quarter of a tea- •poonful of pepper. Meat must be sea- soned after it is partly cooked. Mut- ton contains a great deal of fat i-o baste it with the fat. Vou may have » ooolt who roaats beef with a whole cup of water. Years ago we thought we could not roast a piece of meat un- '... less we hung it on a biok, so aa to cook ft it •!' »like. The stoves nowadays • .' have books for thia purpose, and we 'if,.

To prepare a chicken for panning, draw and singe the fowl, and first re- move the head. Next carefully cut the skin until you find the tendons in the leg. Remove them and you have a delicious tender iJece of chick- en. If you fail to do this the legs will be tou«h. The log of a turkey is the choicest part if you remove the ten- dons, and it only taues three seconds if you have a wooden skewer. Turn the I'h'cken O' er and ri'mnve the crop keeping the Internals inta-t. Aft>/» loosening the intestinee turn them all out at one time; then look in the fowl, remove the lungs and oil sack, and wipe out with a sponge. Remove the neck close to the body, and give the chicken a sponge bath as quick- ly at possible. Two dishes ea-h for eight persons can be made from one chicken, fut the rougher pieces in the bottom of the pan. arranging those that arealike together. IJu^st lightly with pep(ier put over it a tablespoonful of but- ter, one-half cup of boiling water, one bay leaf on top of the chicken and nearly rover the pan over with an- other, so that all of the steam can- not escape. Cook in a hot oven for one hour. Broiled chops are very fine cooked as follo%vs: I Broil French ch^ips. trimmed, over ' a quick fire for ten minutes.
