Two quarts of flour, salt, two-thirds cup shortening, add batter, knead, then rise. After that, make out rolls and let rise about two hours and bake in moderate oven about three-fourths of an hour. — Mrs. E. E. Bernard. TEA ROLLS. Sponge : One cake yeast, one cup creamed potatoes, three- fourths cup sugar, one cup warm water in which yeast has been dissolved. Another cup of warm water, mix all together. This sponge will last for several days if kept in a cool place and need not all be used at once. To make the rolls one cup of the sponge, one and one-half cups of flour, one teaspoonful salt, lard the size of a small egg. Knead well, roll and cut out. Put in muffin rings and let set for three hours in a warm place. Bake till light brown. — Mrs. A. G. Elliott. MUFFINS.
