half a teaspoonful of salt and two eggs well beaten; stir in hastily one cupful and a half of Southern cornmeal; turn at once in a shallow greased pan and bake from thirty to forty minutes in a quick oven.

WAFER BREAD TO SERVE WITH SALADS Dissolve half a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda in half a cupful of warm water; add suffi- cient warm water, about one cupful, to moisten a quart of whole wheat flour. The dough must be rather hard. Knead it continuously for fifteen minutes, then pound it with a potato-masher for from five to ten minutes, or put it through a bis- cuit brake. Roll the dough in a very thin sheet, cut in squares of two inches, prick with a fork, and bake in a moderately quick oven until crisp and brown. Half a pint of peanut or pine- nut butter may be rubbed in the flour before add- ing the water. VIRGINIA BISCUITS Rub one tablespoonful of shortening into a quart of soft white flour; add a level teaspoonful of salt. Mix two-thirds of a cupful of milk with an equal quantity of water; add this gradually to the flour, stirring all the while ; the dough must be hard, not wet. It may not take the entire quan- tity of moisture ; for this reason add it gradually. Knead the dough continuously for fifteen minutes.
