Entire-Wheat Muffins. For a dozen muffins there will be required a cupful and . a half of entire-wheat flour, a cupful of milk, one- third of a cupful of water, an egg, a teaspoonful of cream-of-tartar, half a teaspoonful of soda, half a tea- spoonful of salt, and two table-spoonfuls of sugar. Mix the dry ingredients, and sift them into a bowl. Beat the egg until it is light, and add the milk and water to it. Pour this mixture upon the dry ingredients, and beat quickly and vigorously. Pour the batter into buttered muffin-pans, and bake for twenty-five minutes in a rather quick oven. The batter will be thin and give a moist muffin, but that is as it should be. * Granulated-Wheat Muffins. Mix together in a sieve, and rub through it, three cup- fuls of fine-granulated wheat meal, such as is made by the Health Food Company, four table-spoonfuls of sugar, three teaspoonfuls of baking-powder, and one teaspoonful of salt. Turn the bran from the sieve into a bowl. Beat two eggs very light, and add to them two cupfuls of milk and two-thirds of a cupful of water ; then pour gradually upon the dry mixture. Beat well, and pour into two dozen muffin-cups. Bake in a rather quick oven for twenty-five minutes. * Raised Graham Muffins. Mix in a bowl a pint of wheat flour and a pint of graham, and add half a teaspoonful of salt
