They are also much used at luncheons, afternoon teas, etc. When nicely made they are very appetizing. White, graham, brown bread, or rolls, may be converted into sandwiches, and each according to the individual taste. There is no limit to their filling, for eggs, meat, fowl, fruit, fish, salads, jams and chopped nuts are all pressed into service. Their shape can be varied; they may be cut in circles, or rolled like omelets, but the most common form is the square or triangular. The materials used in a sandwich should be minced or sliced as fine as possible so that they may be eaten with little trouble, and the season- ing should be added to the filling. Butter should be of the finest quality, and spread so smoothly that it will not flake off when the sandwich is handled. Graham, rye, or brown bread is very tender and nutritious, and many prefer them to the white. A square loaf cuts up nicely. But no sandwich should have the crust left on, and the slices composing it should be thin and of equal size. When fish is used it should be pounded to a paste and mixed with another paste made of hard-boiled eggs, cream, and butter, seasoned. LETTUCE SANDWICHES. Sprinkle fresh crisp lettuce leaves with a little salt and lay them a few moments in a folded napkin, then lay them between slices of bread that have been buttered.
