BREAD AND BUTTER FOLDS.— Remove end slice from bread. Spread end of loaf evenly with butter which has been creamed. Cut off as thin a slice as possible. Repeat until the number of slices required are prepared. Remove crusts, put to- gether in pairs, and cut in squares, oblongs or triangles. Use white, entire wheat, graham or brown bread. Three-layer sand- wiches are attractive when made of entire wheat bread between white slices. — Mrs. Frank Ferguson, Franklin, 111.
