Cut the meat from the back bone of a SAN FRANCISCO HOTEL GAZETTE'S 90 loin or rack of young pork in one long fil- let and a portion of the flank with it. Make a roll of it that will be quite small ; split the meat if too large when rolled and make two. Before rollins; up spread upon it a seasoning of finely minced on- ion, powdered sage or rosemary, bayleaf also powdered, salt and a little cayenne, tie up with twine, cook in soup stock a while without browning, then roll in egg and cracker meal and bake brown. Bake a few small tomatoes set far apart in a pan so that they will dry away from their juice, and also a few small onionsEntrecote of Pork, Dauphinoise and when time to serve put a spoonful of gravy into the small dish, a slice of the roll of pork and baked tomato and browned onion at the ends for garnish. Dauphinoise is equivalent to saying after the manner of the people of Dauphiny. 760— Kromeskies a ia Russe. Kromeskies are a kind of meat fritter or fish or oyster fritter; for kr©m- eskies can be made of anything that will make croquettes. Mince some veal, lamb or chicken very fine; season with spiced salt, or salt, pep- per and nutmeg, mix with a little very stiff sauce made by stirring butter and flour over the Are and adding broth or water, taking care not to get in too much liquor. When cold ioll up the prepara- tion like very small sausages; dip intothm fritter batter and fry light colored in fresh lard. Serve with a spoonful of good white sauce placed previously in the dish and sprinkle with tineiy minced parsley. As these are fried they should be laid on paper to drain. Very few are called for at the first time of ^.ervng, the name not b^ihg tamiiiur to many, and expensive ingredients may as well be omitted. IViake kromeskies ol game or lobster same way. 761— Boiled farina Pudding. 4 cups milk — a quart. I small cup farina — a ounces, i^ cup sugar. I or 2 yolks.

I cup su2;ar. ^ cup strong clear coffee. Mix and freeze.
