By that time Mary Jane's perplexity was all over, and when the time came to change those fifteen plates she had ready for them as fine a pudding as you would wish to meet on a summer day. For an- other class of puddings without eggs see Nos. 631, 639, 652, 594 and index. SAN I^RANCISCO HOTEL GAZETTE'S 5s 617— Chocolate Butter Pie without Eggs. The same as No. 577 with a small cup of grated chocolate added to the milk when put on to boil with the butter in it. Chocolate flavor is n9t good in combin- ation with eg^s, but it is with butter and cream. Chocolate custard frozen is not much esteemed, but chocolate with pure cream is one of the favorite ices. So this chocolate butter pie is the best flavored compound of the sort that can be made. If wanted as good as it can be, use a pound of sugar and half a pound of butter to a quart of milk and four ounces flourChocolate Butter Pie without Eggs and the cup of chocolate. Makes three pies large and deep, each to cut in eight. Supper. Discouraged landloard. Twelfth of July gone and still "nobody in the nouse," comparatively speaking. Some very fme people sure to come soon and there is a party or two talked of but meantime he says there is no use of our doing our best. Cut^ down expense and take it easy. There is pleasant row- ing on the lake and the girls have struck up some ne\v tunes. Cracked wheat mush (3 cents.) Lamb stew with potatoes (10 :ents.) Cold roast beef (charged dinner.) Potato pats and German fried (cold served previous meals, ) French rolls (10 cents.) Flour batter cakes (cheapest, No. 535; 2 qts, 10 cent's.) Peaches (3 lb, can Cal. in syrup, 25 cents.) Chelsea buns (No. 619; 22, 16 cents.) Syrup 8, butter 20, milk, cream 32, coffee, tea, sugar, bread 17. Total, $1 51; 25 persons; 6 cents a plate. 618- -Lamb and Potato Stew, or Gal- limaufry. This is said by one of our French authors to be the ancient dish of gal- limaufry a la Languedocienne. It does not hurt anybody to eat it, however, and only costs 10 or 12 cents with all its wealth of name thrown il. Take some pieces of cold lamb ; about I pound of clear meat will do and it may be the neck or shoulder that was boiled until just done in the soup boiler. Shave off the dark portions and cut the meat in la».ge dice. Cut an equal amount of raw potatoes the same way and put both on to boil with clear broth or water barely to cover. Put in a small onion cut up and if to be true to name a clove of garlic and sprig of green thymeLamb and Potato Stew and Hale chop- ped parsley. When it has sttwed until the potatoes are done, season with pepper and salt and thicken it. slightly if* the potatoes have not boiled away and thick- ened it already. It is a neat looking little stew and good for a family supper. 619— Chelsea Buns, without Eggs. One of the sweetest warm breads that serve in place of cake when there are no eggs to be had. Take nearly half the dough that is mixed up for French rolls and work into it a few currants. Roll it out to a very thin sheec, brush over with softened but- ter, sprinkle sugar all overChelsea Buns without Eggs, then cut the dougn into ribbons and coil them into spiral buns. Place with plenty of room between in a buttered pan, rise an hour and bake. Sugar over when done. For exact proportions, see No. 267. That variety is like currant rolls, these are flat coils.
