1 tablesp flour, a pinch of salt, and cinnamon to taste. Bake in an under crust. The cottage ' cheese is made by placing some clabber milk over the fire and '■ letting it warm through and then pouring it in a cheese cloth ; bag, and hanging it up. When the whey has dropped out, mix ■ the cheese smooth with a little sweet cream and salt it to i taste. — [Mrs. E. C, Mo. I I Rice Pie | Mix together 1 cup sweet milk, 2 beaten e^^ yolks, ^ cup i sugar, ^2 cup boiled rice, and a piece of butter as large as a j walnut. Beat thoroughly, put in a double boiler and cook j until the egg is done. Remove from fire, flavor to taste, and ; pour the mixture into a baked pie shell, and cover with a \ meringue made with the whites of the eggs and a little pow- •■ dered sugar. Put in the oven a few minutes to brown lightly. ; When cold drop small lumps of jelly around on the top. — [M. ; F. P., N. Y. : Fried Pies These are very nice and when fried just right, so as not to j soak fat, are every bit as good as baked pies. Roll some 1 biscuit dough quite thin, cut in small pieces of any desired size | or shape, put on each piece a small spoonful of hot mince meat, ; fold the crust over and pinch the edges together securely all I around so it will not open anywhere while frying, and fry \ these small individual mince pies in hot lard until a delicate ^ brown, same as doughnuts. If you have never tasted any like j these you have a real treat in store. — [I. A.
