fork, which should be in about 20 minutes. 
Drain and place the kettle upon the stove to 
keep hot, and remove the cover to dry off the 
steam. Then sprinkle some salt over the po¬ 
tatoes, unless the salt has been put into the 
boiling water, and break them thoroughly 
with a fork. Add a half teaeupful of sweet 
cream, or rich milk, and beat all together till 
the mass is as smooth as butter and as white as 
milk. Put it into a hot dish, shaping it iuto a 
nice pyramid and send to the table. To be

Chop cold boiled potatoes fine with enough 
raw onion to season nicely. Make the follow¬ 
ing dressing to pour over, then set aside 
until time to serve. Rub very smooth the 
yelks of two hard-boiled eggs, add a teaspoonful 
of mustard, one of salt, the yelks of two raw 
eggs, a teaspoonful of sugar and a dash of 
Cayenne. To this mixture add sweet oil 
poured in by very small quantities beating all 
the time as long as the mixture thickens, then 
add vinegar little by little until as thin as de¬ 
sired. This dressing is very nice for cabbage.

When I want extra-nice mashed potatoes, I 
mash and season as usual, then break in two 
eggs, beat till light and puffy, then put in a 
white earthen baking dish, and bake in the 
oven till they are nicely browned on top. 
Serve in the dish they are baked in.

liard-boiled egg, and strew with bits of pickled 
onion. When you have enough thus pre¬

DIFFERENT WAYS OF COOKING, 
FRIED POTATOES. 
Peel the potatoes aud slice thin, dropping 
them into cold water to prevent them from 
turning black. Have your skillet, on the stove 
with a good bit of lard in it; when it is really 
hot, put iu your potatoes, adding salt aud 
pepper; cover closely, and put them where 
they will uot. burn. Let them cook thus about 
15 minutes; then remove the cover, and let 
them cook foster, stirring well from the bot¬ 
tom very often with a knife. They should be 
a nice brown all through, aud if rightly done 
will uot be greasy. 
I often cut, the potatoes in small pieces, 
steam them, adding salt when I put them in 
the steamer, aud after dishing them up, pour 
drawn butter over them, and turn them over 
with a fork; it makes a change iu the taste 
which is agreeable. aunt em. 
SLICED FRIED POTATOES. 
Peel the potatoes and slice them in rather 
thin slices. Tour cold water over them, and 
let them stand an hour or more. Pour them 
into n colander to dralu. Have ready on the 
stove the dish in which they are to lie cooked, 
with two or throe large tablespoonfuls of 
melted butter. 
For a large family -where quite a quantity 
is required, a long dripping-pan will be found 
convenient to cook them in. When the butter 
is hot. pour in the potatoes, and let them cook 
slowly on the top of the stove; sprinkle a little 
salt over them, aud turn them often with u 
knife. As the grease is absorbed, add more 
that they may uot burn fast to the pan. Lot 
them cook until brown and tender—an hour is 
little enough time; for they need slow cooking 
to attain their best flavor. If but a small 
quantity is needed, the slices may be cooked 
singly in a dish, turning them when needed; 
but for a largo dish, this would be too tedious. 
If butter is not available, lard that has been 
fi ied tioiu salt pork will do; but butter gives 
the most satisfactory results, Thera is a 
sweetness about potatoes cooked in this way, 
which recommends them to every lover of this 
vegetable, aunt rachel.

Select large potatoes of equal size; when 
done, take from the oven and cut off a small 
piece from the top of each, scoop the inside 
out carefully witih tiie aid of a small spoou; 
season liberally with butter, pepper and salt, 
and return with the spoon to the skins, al¬
