To Cook Calves' Brains
Why is it that many cooks never
prepare calves' brains' This choice
tidbit has a delicate, sweet flavor;
pleases the eye and delights the diner.
Tt lies in the animal's skull in such a
position that it is protected from all
contamination until removed to be sold
and even then it is covered with a thin
membrane that wraps it securely until
it is ready to cook. It is really the
cleanest and purest part of the animal
and after yon have prepared it once
you will not dislike cooking it.
Some of the delicate dishes made
from it are brain patties, fried brains,
brains with mushrooms, with peas or
with tomatoes.
First, remove the thin membrane that
covers them and lay the brains in cold
water for several hours. Have water
boiling in a sauce pan and dropthemeat
into it for two seconds. Remove and
change the water and to the second
saucepan of boiling water add salt, a
few grains of pepper, one small white
onion chopped fine and little thyme
and one bay leaf. Put in the brains and
add one tablespoon of vinegar. Boil
gently twenty minutes. Drain and re
move all fibres. ( 00l the meat between
two heavy boards or between two plates
with a weight 011 the top one.
What ever way you intend to cook
the brains requires this preliminary
process. After they are cold they will
V>e quite firm and may be cut into nice
appearing, firm slices or even sized
pieces.
„ A French dish is called brains
a'l'aurora. After the brains are pre
pared and >ut as directed arrange them

on a platter and put, tliein in a warm
ing oven or where they may heat
through gently. Make a fine butter
sauce and add the chopped whites of
hard boiled eggs, chopped parsley and
a few shreds of red pepper pods to give
color. Pour this over the meat. Press
the yolks of the eggs through an egg
shredder or a sieve and sprinkle over
the top. Brown a little in the oven and
garnish with peas or with asparagus.
A simpler way, known as Peasant
style, is to prepare the brains and roll
the slices in flour. Brown in a little
butter and serve very hot. Lemon juice
should be sprinkled with them as they
are 39 very rich.
Brains are also excellent soaked,
scalded and then scrambled with eggs.
Brain patties are most delicate eat
ing but requires a good pastry cook
for the shells but these may be pur
chased ready made at almost any
baker's. Rosettes or timbales make
just as good shells as the regular pastry
cases if you lack experience enough to
make the regular patty shells.
After the brains are cooked, pressed
and cooled, cut them into cubes. Have
steamed mushrooms cooked also and
cut these into smaller squares than the
brains. Sprinkle both lightly with flour
that has been salted and peppered (nse
white pepper). Saute or brown them
delicately in tine, hot butter. Pill the
pastry shells with them. Now make a
rich white or delicately brown sauce
using the butter left in the sauce pan.
Strain this and pour it over the filled
cases just as they are needed to serve.
They are ruined if they stand one mo
ment as the sauce works into the pastry.

"Always feel like I oughter aslc him to

Mrs. Harris disdained to make reply
If she heard. She was already devour
ing the "society notes" in one of the
papers and now, with eager Interest,
read alond:
LORP CECIL COMES A-WOOING.
There Is much excitement In high soci
ety over the arrival today of Lord Cecil
of England, whose famous title dates
from the Norman conquest and who Is the
only living representative of his distin
guished family through the male line.
Lord Cecil, who has Hie unique and en
vied hereditary right to address the king
as "mv l<rrd." frankly admits that he is
here to wed an Ami-rican heiress. He la
registered at the Hotel Triumphant.
With breathless eagerness Mrs. Harris
looked nt her husband, who, it must be
udmltted, had not hoard a word, his en
tire attention being given those tor
menting shoes, and with mounting col
or and a hnppy realization that at Insl
she had the opportunity to use the line
which she had so much admired as it
iprang from the lips of the heroine in
"How Angeline Won Her Way, or
From Chorus Girl to Duchess." seen
at the town hall in Redbank twenty
years before, declared triumphantly:
"This Is the chance of my life!"
"Aw right, ma." Mr Flarrls assented
nnlnterestedly, and wistfully handled
an old pipe.
"Do yon remember." she said, "the
English lord we met wheu we were in
Baden, the gentleman who straight
ened things out for yon when yo'.i
wanted to fight the waiter because you
thought he was giving yon short
change when he was only holding out
his tip?" Mrs. Harris lowered her
voice impressively as she added mean
ingl.v: "Hut even if you do not 1 do.
and he is in I his country—has come to
marry an American heiress."
"Well, let him. I don't care," Pa
Harris responded indifferently.
Two hours later there was delivered
to Lord Cecil the following missive:
My Dear Lord Octl—l am so glad to
hear that you are in America, because
you promised when we met you ill Baden
last year that you would visit us if you
ever came to this country. Let rae know
if you can come for as long as you will,
and I'll send the motor for yon tomorrow
morning. Sincerely.
MRS. THOMAS M. HARRIS.
"The man—he appears a very proper
sort of footman, my lord—ls to wait
for an answer." James informed his
master.
"You might look up these people at
all events, .lames," Cecil suggested
and handed over the note. A few min
utes later his attention was attracted
by a discreet cough, and he read with
sudden qul< kening of interest the para
graph James pointed out in a volume
entitled "Social and Financial Regis
ter."
"Harris, Thomas M. ('The Peanut
Butter Kiug'i," the item ran. "Age

Martha Jane. Daughter. Mary, age
twenty, sole heiress."
Lord Cecil nodded with satisfaction.
"You may tell the man they may
send the motor," he instructed the at
tentive James.
The next day's sun beamed warmly,
and the flowers of the extensive Harris
gardens did due credit to the expensive
Imported gardener and his nine assist
ants. but neither sunshine nor flowers
could coax from Mary Harris a smile.
If the truth must be told, she was
pouting sulkily and stamping her small
foot upon the well rolled gravel. Then
loud hammerings from the "cottage"
In course of construction on the adjoin
ing plot attracted her attention. She
raised her violet eyes, her red lips
curled into joyousness. and after a
careful look about she waved her hand
kerchief. The distance was consider
able. but the youth with blueprints in
his hands evidently had sharp eyes.
He also waved his hand aud hurried
toward a certain sheltered nook which,
as Mary had on a previous occasion
pointed out, possessed the strategic
advantage of allowing occupants there
of to command a clear view of the
Harris castle while they themselves
were safely invisible.
They met in what seems to be the
accepted manner of lovers' meetings,
in sheltered nooks. Presently Mary
freed herself and with tragic eyes and
trembling lips whispered the dread tid
ings.
"Mother is going to marry me to a
horrid old lord." she said.
Horror banished the smile from
Tom's face. He blanched, but heroic
ally rose to the occasion.
"Fear not. I will save you," he cried,
with a very creditable imitation of the
hero in Broadway's latest romantic
success.
Mary pouted.
"Don't be silly." she said ungracious
ly. "You know you can't <lo anything.
You are too poor."
In sorrow he bowed his head.
"You're dead right; not a chance." he
groaned. "Might get by the old gen
tleman—he knows a fellow doesn't
have to stay poor—but your mother!
No hope at all."
"But you know I will always be
true?" Mary demanded. This accept
ance of defeat seemed tame.
"Will you?" he asked eagerly, and
somewhat pettishly Mary nodded. Just
then, however, a slight confusion, a
scurrying of liveried servants and a
stopping motor attracted her eyes to
the front of the palatial cottage. An
excited flush sprang into her cheeks,
and hurriedly she leaned forward to
catch a better glimpse.
"Gracious! He's here!" she said, and
with scant adieus hurried away.
"Oh. adored but fickle heart!" Tom
murmured and swiftly returned to his
labors.
A week later there was published the
announcement of the engagement of
Miss Mary Harris to Lord Cecil of
England.
On the same day Lord Cecil stood
looking from his bedroom window.
Ills range of vision included a garden
nook well screened from every other
direction He could see with unmis
takable clearness that the girl, weep
ing bitterly and clinging about the neck
of a young gentleman of tragic mien,
was his promised bride.
"Really, y' know, can't have that sort
of thing." Cecil remarked thoughtfully.
"By Jove, it looks as though the little
girl"— The sentence remained unfin
ished, and he hurried from the room.
As Cecil came upon them the young
couple drew quickly apart, but Mary
faced him defiantly.
"I don't care!'' she asserted, while
tears formed slowly in the violet eyes.
"I love Tom, and he Is going to Brazil,
and I don't want to marry you. and I
will die of a broken heart, 1 know I
will!"
For a few moments Lord Cecil pon
dered gravely, then, with a cheerful
smile, hurried away, first telling them
to nwait his return. Mary, between
fright and grief, just sniffed. Tom
•sullenly and uncomfortably shuffled his
feet. They edged away from one an
other.
Between Thomas M. Harris and
Lord Cecil there had developed a real
though unspoken friendship Kach had
rightly seen Into the heart of the other.
Harris, however, was for n moment be
wildered when Cecil, finding him alone,
made the unique suggestion that had
come into his mind.
"You mean ,von don't want to marry
Mary?" Harris demanded.
"My wishes need uot lie considered.
It is Mary's happiness that is in ques
tion. I—aw—did not know that slio
was In love with any one," Cecil said
gently.
Harris extended a rugged hand, and
his voice shook.
"Shake, sir!" lie said. "By George,
sir, knowiii'—l found out—how you
need money, I'm bound to say yon are
a white man! By Run), sir. I'm willin'.
Yes, I will call you m'lord after this!"
Cecil wrilhed in acute eiujjarrass
ment—lnternally. His face gave no
sign.
"As to your suggestion. I'm afraid It
won't work," Harris remarked thought
fully. . "I kuow that, boy—he's all right
—but Martha is set on bein' mother-in
law to a lord, and she is terrible set
when she is set. However, maybe if
you suggest It she will take to it. Let's
get the children and see which way
the cat jumps."
It was a constrained little party that
presently found Itself in the command
ing presence of Mrs. Harris. Lord Ce
cil plunged to the heart of the subject.
"Mary, y* know, would prefer to
marry this gentleman." he said, indi
cating the restless Tom. "We might
Just let him take my place at the wed
ding next week, don't you think?"
For a moment Mrs. Harris was
stricken dumb with amazement, but
only for a moment. Then it became
most clear that she did not think the
suggested substitution of grooms In the
slightest degree desirable. Weeping,
Mary sought her own room. Sullen
and obviously frightened. Tom depart
