go together, so the average person will have to sample
either by itself. Take for six persons five yolks of
eggs and beat them, with a Dover egg beater until they
are thick, adding for each egg one and one-half tea-
spoonfuls of powdered sugar. Cook this in a double
boiler, beating constantly, until the mixture is light
and fluffy. Then add drop by drop one half egg-shell
full of Marsala wine for each two eggs✪ Zabajone a la Milanaise. Serve at
once in cups or punch glasses. Care should be taken
not to cook this until it curdles, or to put in too much
wine. It should be of the consistency of whipped
cream.
NORWE- Superintending the building of an Irriga-
GIAN BUT- tion ditch in the Big Horn Basin of Wyo-
TERED ming has been a young Norwegian civil
engineer, one O. J. Midthun by name, and
'' Mid " for short. " Mid " is an epicure of the deep-
est dye, and patrons of the hotel Irma at Cody will not
forget the sanguinary struggle between the clerk and
the chef — and all because "Mid " inaugurated the cus-
tom of cognac with coffee after dinner in Buffalo Bill's
big hotel. But this is digressing, for I was about to
give " Mid's " recipe for buttered eggs as served in
his Norwegian home at high tea, but which may be
served as a luncheon dish or a snack after the play.

well beaten, are poured into the blazer. In which the
butter has been melting, together with chopped onion

way until the mixture is thick, and serve hot — and there
you have the favorite bonne bouchee from Christiania.
SAUSAGES When Prince Henry was feted In New
AND York nothing pleased him more than a
CELERY breakfast dish of sausages and celery
which was served him. His Prussian palate was
tickled so delightfully by this dainty that it is doubt-
less still being served him on his Highness's royal
yacht. To do them, prick as many small sausages as
you think the appetites of your party demand. This
prevents them from bursting. Put in the blazer and
cover with a quarter-cup of boiling water, and cook
until all the water is evaporated. Uncover and brown,
adding a little butter, or better still, some bacon fat.
Two or three minutes before they are done add two
tablespoonfuls of chopped celery✪ Sausages and Celery and cook just long
enough to be tender, but not enough to lose the fresh cel-
ery taste. Serve either on slices of brown bread or toast.
A SUBLIME Out in the Canadian Rockies, not many
SAND- miles from Banff the Beautiful, there is a
WICH member of the Northwestern Mounted
Police force, the scion of a titled English family, with a

who loves the free, wild life of the hills in the new coun-
try, and lives it In preference to the hothouse existence
