The mushrooms took only ten minutes to cook 'and were tender and rich in flavor. next course was no less interesting, for when the bag was opened, the bird was not singing, but piping, hot, and it was as brown and crisp as ever a little individual bird could be served, and as tender and juicy as it is possible for any such creation to be. The chicklets took only twenty-five minutes in a low-temperature oven. The bag was hardly charred and did not break into uncontrollable fragments, as the bags cooked in high temperature must needs do.

Showing that "Paper-bag cookery" is perfectly practical, the editorial department of the Good Housekeeping Magazine, recently gave at the Del-montro's. New York, a dinner, all of the dishes for which were prepared and served in paper bags. The menu was one of nine courses, made up of palatable dishes, which appeared before the party of 50 or more distinguished men and women guests, in the paper bags in which they were cooked, thoroughly convincing those present for the dinner of the certainty of results in this method of cookery. The following extract from the article which appeared in the recent number of the "Good Housekeeping" magazine, describing -in detail the dinner, will be of interest to house mothers of Central Illinois who are now experimenting in this method: "The bill of fare, nine courses long, went through without a hitch: there were no waits and no disappointments." Another extract from the article describes the dinner as follows: "The chef. M.

Seraphin Millon, said that nothing was put in the stove until five minutes before the guests were seated. Another noteworthy fact the dishes which should be hot were hot: being served in the bags merely as a matter of novelty and of demonstration they we're piping, steaming hot when the bags were poked open with the eater's fork, and exhaled in, all its fragrance each epicurean aroma which the paper bag. above all culinary instruments, is able to conserve. The bill of fare, which was printed on a brown paper hag. was.

Layman and Cafe "The cheese souffle introduced the guests in a gentle and delightful way to the meaning of the dinner: it was a dainty, fluffy concoction of cheese and white of egg. browned on top. and served in paper-bag plates (as pictured), which were covered with paper while cooking in the oven.

This souffle took five minutes to cook and was served very hot. "Baked Ice Cream" is hardly conceivable, but that such a feat can be accomplished with the paper bags Is shown in the following words: "What could 'Alaska-Florida' mean?

Spare Ribs and Potatoes. My first experience in paper bag cooking was spare ribs and potatoes. Grease a cooking bag with melted butter, cut spare ribs into small pieces. Peel potatoes and cut into halves. Place spare ribs and potatoes in bag fold ends over and fasten -with paper clips.

Place bag on the grate in oven with seam side up. Cook one hour. The 'Pare ribs were nicely brown and tender. The potatoes were well done and mealy. My second experience was roast chicken.
