Cooking for profit

Lyonaise potatoes are cold boiled potatoes sliced in a frying-pan, and browned with a little minced onion mixed with the drippings. But, on account of the very general objection to onions, at least among business people, the name of lyonaise is often given to the plain article, that is, to_ cold potatoes Iried more or less brown, in a little fat in a frying-pan without the onions. In this case, having no parsley I used green onions from the seed bed very sparingly, ai> much for the green sprink- Img as for taste; partly fried the onions in the drippings before putting the potatoes in. Potatoes this way should be sliced small. But who is going to scrub the kitchen? My gracious! And the housekeeper, from the Water Cure Home has been in since breakfaist looking harder than ever. And there is my "sec." A great singer she is, with not the least intention of having a scrub out, singing in chorus with three other German girls, and wiping pans, not at the hotel rate of a mile a minute, but at about the eighth of a mile an hour. It is a very pretty pic-nic, this summer resort business, at present and I hate to break it up, "Shall we gather at the rivei The beautiful, beautiful river." That is what they are sir.gmg but not in the same tongue. They have it: Sammeln wir am Strom uns Alle, Wo die Engel warten schon, Und die Wasser wie Crystalle Fliessen bin voi Gottes Thron. Ta, wir sammeln uns am Strome, Dem herrlichen, dem herrlichen Strome ; Sammeln uns am Lebens Strom, Der da fliesst von Gottes Thron. Dort, wo an des Strom's Gestade Sich die Silber-VVelie bricht Preisen ewig wir die Gnadt An dem lag vol! Glanz und Licht. Ja, wir sammeln unsgam Strome, etc. Ehe wir zum Strom gelangen, Legen jede Last win hin ; Dort als Sieger zu empfangen Kron' und Purpur zum Gewinn. Ja,, wir sammeln uns am Strome etc. In des Stromes hellem Spiegel Nimmt man Jesus Antlitz wahr, Und des Todes Schloss und Riegel Trennt nicht mehr die heiFge Schaar, Ja, wir Sammeln uns am Strome etc. An den SUberstrom im Leben Schliesst sich unser Pilgerlauf, Und des Herzens heilig Lcben Geht in Wonnejubel auf. Ja, wir sammem uns am Strome £tc. Dinner. Nudel soup (4 qts, 12 cents.) Rib ends of beef (No. 144, but smallei cuts — 30 cents.) Browned potatoes (No. 157—5 cents.)

There v;as a rather funny oi 3^ comment and rejoinder not long since between certain New York and Philadelphia editors, occasioned by the former having seen "Nudels" somewhere for the first time and the latter remarking that his friend would see nudels or noodles very frequently indeed if he would visit the good land of Pennsylvania. It is just barely possible that neither of these had ever recognized "nudels" in the French nouilles soup of their several city hotels and restaurants. Undoubtedly German nudel is the proper word and the nudel IS the original German homemade macaroni.
