BROILED OYSTERS.— Free from the shells, pour water over the oysters and drain. Dip in melted butter, then in highly-sea- soned cracker dust; let stand until a crust is formed, as they will then retain their juices. Lay on a fine, well-buttered wire grid- iron, till a delicate brown. Serve on a hot platter
