LIVER CUTLETS— OEIGINAL. Soak one poundof calf s liver in cold water two hours to draw out the blood. Parboil it for twenty minutes; then chop it very fine. Into a saucepan put onej cup of milk, and when it reaches boiling point stir into it one tablespoonful of butter and two tablespoonfuls of flour which have first been rubbed together until smooth, and cook until it forms a smooth paste and very thick. Season liver with yolk of one raw egg, one teaspoonful of parsley, pepper and salt to taste; then pour in the cream sauce and mix well together. Pour on a platter to cool, and when cold form into cutlets, roll in egg and cracker crumbs and fry in boiling fat. Serve with thin slices of breakfast bacon fried crisp. MEAT TOAST. This is excellent, made of part veal and chicken. Chop your meat fine, season very well with salt, pep- per and a little mace. Make a white sauce; put the chopped meat into it and heat well; pour on buttered toasted bread. DELICIOUS CHICKEN CROQUETTES— OEIGINAL. To one fat hen chopped fine, use one large tablespoon- ful of parsley, one heaping teacupful of bread crumbs, one cup of cream or rich milk, one-half pound of butter, or use the rich liquor from the chicken and not so much butter, and the yolks of eight hard-boiled eggs. Mash and mix the butter with these, season with salt and pepper to taste
