BACHELOR'S

CUPBOARD

A

Chat

on

Cheese

Why

is

not

cheese

used

more,

I

wonder?

It

is

nutritious,

and,

eaten

properly,

aids

in

digesting

a

dinner.

If

one always

drinks

plenty

of

good

old

ale

or

beer

with

his

rabbit

and

includes

in

its

ingredients

a

pinch

of

soda

there's

no

reason,

unless

there's

a

chronic

indigestion

to

contend

with,

why

a

rabbit

need

not

digest

as easily

as

a

new-laid

egg.

In

foreign

countries

cheese

is

as

staple

an

article

of

diet as

bread.

One

reads

of

the

husky

English

laborer

with

his

pail

of

beer

and

mid-day

tiffin

of

bread

and

cheese.

The

German

considers

no

luncheon

complete

without

his

Schweitzer

Kase

or

Schmier

Kase,

while

the

Swiss

goat-milk

cheese,

the

Norw-eglan

reindeer-

milk

cheese,

the

Italian

cheese,

and

the

hundred

and

one

variety

of

French

cheeses

are

equally

famous

staple

articles

of

diet.

AN

Take

Roque-

TIZER

fort

cheese

and

sweet

dairy

butter

and

melt

in

the

hot

pan,

using

a

very

low

flame.

When

of

cream-like

consistency

add

cayenne

and

Worcester-

shire

sauce

to

taste,

stirring

until

it

foams.

Crisp

crackers

and

the

beer

that

made

Milwaukee

famous

complete

a

trio

of

famous

palate-ticklers.
