Scrambled EggsFour eggs Beat the eggs, and add the salt to them. Melt the butter in a sauce-pan. Turn in the beaten eggs, stir quickly over a hot fire for one minute, and serve. Eggs a la SuisseSpread the bottom of a dish with two ounces of fresh butter; cover this with grated cheese; break eight whole eggs upon the cheese without breaking the yolks. Season with red pepper and salt if necessary; pour a little cream on the surface, strew about two ounces of grated cheese on the top, and set the eggs in a moderate oven for about a quarter of an hour. Pass a hot salamander over the top to brown it. Hickory Nut SandwichesContributed by: Mrs. John Burg Cut thin slices of home-made bread into round, oval and heart-shaped pieces with cookie cutter, spread with soft butter. Cover with napkins wrung out of hot water, until thoroughly steamed. Spread with gooseberry jam, sprinkle heaping teaspoonful of chopped hickory nut meats in the middle of a slice, cover with the other and press the edges securely together. SandwichesContributed by: Mrs. Woodard Take any kind of meat chopped very fine and mix with an equal quantity of celery, which should also be chopped very fine. Slice bread very thin, spread with butter and a very little French mustard, then spread the chopped meat and celery. Halibut SandwichesContributed by: Mrs. J. G. Lynds Chop the halibut fine and remove the tough fibre. Season highly with cayenne pepper. Rub to a paste with butter and spread on bread. Peanut SandwichesContributed by: Mrs. S. A. Niles One pint of peanuts, remove shucks and peel them; roll with rolling pin--not too fine. Stir in 1/2 cup, or more if you wish, of mayonnaise dressing. Cut your bread very thin, spread with butter, then with the peanut mixture.
