TO-DAY'S RECIPES.
Three Simple Soups.
The French are wonderful at devising a soup out of nearly nothing at all. Here are
some that sound incredibly simple, and yet are very good.
Onc. Put some stale bread into salted water, cook it very slowly for a couple of hours, then pass it through a fine slovo, Put it hack on the fire, add a good piece of butter, bind it with the beaten yolk of an egg, and serve with Hrated cheese..

Two. Cut up thres onions and brown them in butter. Add two pints of boiling water, season with salt and plenty of pepper, and cook for half an hour.
Pass the soup through a sieve, put it back on the fire, throw in some vermicelli, and cook for another ten minutes.
A Cod's Head supplies the third. Fry two chopped onions in butter till they are golden, then add two |dessertspoofuls of flour mixed with a teaspoonful of curry pow. der, and put in the Cod's Hend.
Cover with water, add three tomatoes cut in slices, a bayleaf, two or three sprigs of paraley, and a pinch of thyme, and simmer gently for two or three hours.
Strain finely, nenson with salt and pepper, and serve with ver- micolli or fried croutons.
