PEAR GINGER ALE FREEZE
If the cutlets are ordered in good time from the cold storage they will come to you thawed and neatly trimmed.
Season with pepper and salt as many cutlets as required, and quickly fry them in batter until browned on both sides.
Drain them well to prevent them being sodden with fat, and arrange in the middle of a hot dish.
Take some young carrots, pre- vlously parbolled, and finished them off in the pan in which the cutlets have been cooking.
Arrange in a border round the cutlets dish, then serve with a dish of green peas and mint sauce,
Another way of frying cutlets is to brush them over with beat- en egg sprinkle with seasoned breadcrumbs and fry in hot fat. Dish and serve with a border of mashed potatoes and green peas.

SALMON ON THE MENU
Cherry Shortcakės
Sieve half a pound of flour. with a heaped teaspoonful of baking- powder and two ounces of fine sugar, rub in three ounces of but- ter, and molsten with a beaten egg and rather less than a glil of mük. Bake in a greased shallow tin, allow to cool, split, and,spread the under layer with whipped and sweetened cream. Cover thickly with ripe stoned cherries, put on the top layer of cake, and serve while still fresh.
Salmon cutlets are an excellent choice to vary the menu. That"." which you buy from the Dalry Farm is so inanitely better than the best in tins, you will find it is worth the extra expense.
Cut the fish into thin slices, smear each with olive oil and leave for half an hour to enable the oil to soak into the fish,
Place them under the grill to cook, turning them two or three times, each time smearing a lit- tle more olive oil on the fish,
Dish up on to a hot dish gar- nished with sprigs of parsley. Serve with a white sauce flavour- ed with a little grated lemon rind and a teaspoonful of anchovy
essence.
COLD MEAT CROQUETTES

CHEESE TARTS
The appearance of the first of these cheese tarts at luncheon recenti reminded me that there are sweet cheese tarts, too, of the kind that one discovers in Poitou. Here is the first one, a savoury Alsh Indeed.
Make a fan of unsweetened paste and bake it blind. Mix to- gether a cupful of cream, a beaten egg, and a quarter of a pound of grated cheese, Gruyère and Par- mesan, half and half, being the best.
"Pour this mixture into the baked fan case, and bake again in a moderate oven for fifteen to twenty minutes. The top will be a rich golden brown, and the in- side a richness too delicious for words. It is extremely good when eaten cold, and would be a god- send at a picnic.
Make some paste and line a flan case with it. Now soften halfa pound of cream cheese with the Angers and mix it well by degrees with a quarter of a pound of castor sugar. When well mixed add nearly two ounces of flour, a few drops of vanilla essence, a
coffee-spoonful of yeast, four beaten egg-yolks and, lastly, the whites whipped to a stift froth. Pour this mixture into the fian, case (there will probably be enough for two), but do not fill it. Leave it to rise for two hours in a warm place, and then bake it in the oven for about three- quarters of an hour to an hour.
Lettuce
When lettuces have to be kept overnight they should be well rinsed in cold water and then placed in a deep bowl and cover-
petising way of coping with theed with a plate. To revive a limp
cold joint.

if meat is used, a small -chop- ped onion is required; for chic- ken, a pinch of mixed herbs; and for fish, a pinch of cayenne and essence of anchovy...
To make croquettes remove all fat and gristle from the meat. then mince, season and add a little good stock or gravy-to mois- ten Turn on to a floured board and form into flatshaped crc-i quettes.
Brush each croquette with bea- ten egg, then sprinkle well with fine breadcrumos, pressing them in well to form a crust. Fry a golden brown in deep, smoking fat, drain and serve with gravy and spinach.

When Jam-Making
Many people who make jam at home and that when pots which have been kept for any length of time are opened the jam is fre- quently slightly mouldy on top. It will be found that home-made fam-pot covers will banish this danger. Any scraps of grease- proof paper may be kept for this purpose. Use a compass and mark the paper in circles of the size required. Cut out the circles and drop the papers: Into- a saucer of milk. Squeeze as much moisture out of the papers as possible and cover the pots of Jam at once pressing the edges firmly to the sides of the pots. Dry on, and the home-made covers will be found thoroughly air-tight. Those who use string. should tie it wet found the póta. as it will tighten considerably as it dries.
Pineapple Soup
Cook two tablespoonfuls of fine. sago in a pint of water until transparent, flavouring with cins namon. Add half a pint of chop. ped, seeded raisiris, halt a pint of pine-apple Juice, the Juice of half a lemon, and sugar to taste
Serve very cold in glasses de- corated with pieces of pineapple.

The TIME TEST
'ASPRO
THE old idea that a dozen
medicines were needed for a
dozen complaints—that laying up for indefinite periods, was necessary—that it was also necessary to take dangerous drugs and narcotics-was an illusion. 'ASPRO has dis pelled it. For it is the medicine that takes the place of a dozen medicines, because...... after ingestion in the system, it is an internal antiseptic-an anti-pyretic or fever reducer an anti-periodic--a powerful germicide, and a solvent of Uric Acid. and therefore. banishes the causes of numerous complaints. » That's why 'ASPRO' banishes beadaches in five minutes. It's the time test for quick action. and it stands the test of time. 'ASPRO' soothes the irritable brings sweet sleep to the sleepless-relieves theumatism in one night-smashes colds and influenza at inception. Furthermore, 'ASPRO' does not harm the heart or the stomach. It can be taken by all. from child to parent. anywhere, any time. The price is within the reach of all.
