PLANKED FISH IN FRONT OF A WOOD FIRE.— For this select whitefish or shad, although any *whitefish is good planked. Secure a plank the size of your oven, or one that will fit the 'broiling chamber of the gas stove. The plank must be at least 1 inch thick, a little wider than the fish, as long as the oven, and composed of hardwood, as oak, hickory or ash. Put the plank before the fire until very hot. Split the fish down the back, wash and wipe dry, baste with butter, and dust with salt and pepper. Put the fish on the plank, skin side down, folding the thin middlf 222 FISH portion over, and bringing the two halves together. Drive two medium-sized nails at the head of the fish, and one at the tail. Rear it up in front of a good, clear, strong wood fire; baste occa- sionally with melted 'butter, and cook for at least H hr., until the fish is a good, dark brown. Serve at once on the plank; garnish with parsley and lemon. Cucumber or lettuce salad, and creamed potatoes are the usual accompaniments. — Mabel Sturtevant 105 S Dearborn St., Chicago, 111. PANADA FOR FISH.— Boil 1 oz. of butter and about 1^ to 2 gills of water together, add gradually % lb. of flour; stir until smooth, but do not let it burn. Take ofif the fire, add the yolks of 3 well-beaten eggs. — Mrs. E. D. Kelley, Winnetka, 111.

Prepare greased mould, and, if liked, line it with browned bread crumbs. Flake the fish, and add all dry ingredients. Mix with anchovy essence, melted butter, beaten e^g and milk. Put mixture into the mould, cover with greased paper, and steam in a saucepan of boiling water for 1 hr., and serve with sauce, if liked. — Mrs. Geo. W. Gaines, 3148 Groveland Ave., Chicago, 111. VARIATION I.— Take a lb. of any cold fish free of bones, the same amount of potatoes, an oz. of butter, and 2 well-beaten eggs, season with pepper and salt, a little parsley added is nice. Mix thoroughly, and put all into a well-greased bowl or basin, and bake in oven for 30 minutes. A tin of salmon prepared this way is very nice.— Mrs. B. Haley, 641 N. State St., Chicago, 111. STEWED FISH.— An excellent way to cook any fish, espe- cially pike; put 2 tablespoons of butter in a frying-pan; when hot, lay the fish in with' the outside down; take 6 onions, slice and lay on the top of fish, sprinkle well with salt and pepper, cover tight, and allow to cook 20 minutes or 5^ an hr. If it should cook dry, add a very little water. Serve hot. — Mrs. Emma S. Stone, 5242 S. Michigan Ave., Chicago, 111.
