M I88 MAY IRWIN ia the heat cook on the American stage and
and one of the beat housekeepers in America. She says she
is a housewife by intention and inclination, and an actress
by accident and necessity. Her cook book “May Irwin on Home Cook
ing” is on the kitchen shelf of most conscientious housekeepers, if U
does not lie on their table in their bedroom or stand on a shelf in their
library. She is at work on another cook book that she promises will
he still more complete and satisfying.
Miss Iryein is writing for this newspaper a new series of articles
on cooking and housekeeping. The first of this series is presented today.

Have You No Appetite for Breakfast?
I S your appetite falling, and do you
notice this most when you sit
down to breakfast or when your
breakfast ttay Is brought to your
• bedside? Don’t be diaeourageo and
think your health la deserting you.
It is a symptom of Spring and aarly
Summer, like a young man’s spoeial
(propensity to make love and an older
man’s renewed Interest la Ashing.
Or perhaps your atomach revolts
at the okl breakfast dishes whose
limited number you can repeat more
readily than you can recite your
alphabet. Conn your sppetttle with
some new dishes. Try these wtth
which I shall serve my family; and
if the cook doesn’t make them well
enough to suit me I will prepare
them with my own hands when my
season closes and I get back to my
home in the Thousand Islands, which,
between you and me, and in spite of
those dear audiences, 1 am simply
dying to do.
As I play and travel I glean recipes.
Whenever at a hotel I taste a dish
that tickles my palate, and that has
a new ingredient, I send a most hum
ble message to the kitchen begging
for the recipe. I always get it.
When I am entertained anywhere
1 have a heart-to-heart talk with my
hostess before departing, and the
dish I wanted I get in formula form,
to be tried later on my cheerfully
submitting and I beg you to believe,
notwithstanding my experiments,
healthy family.
This dish I gathered in San Fran
cisco. I hope you will like it as well
as I do.

built out into the sea. They run
parallel to each other, are con
structed of broken rock, and each
of them is two miles in length.
The shores in all that neighbor
hood are sandy and devoid of rocks.
This means that they do not invite
the lobster, which is an animal fond
o{ rocky places, where It can hide
from enemies and find the molluscan
and other provender its diet de
mands.
The two great jetties, however,
furnish eight miles of artificial shore
line, with innumerable crevices in
which to find shelter; and incident
ally the rocks of which they are
composed invite and encourage the
multiplication of innumerable crabs,
shellfish, fishes, and other creatures
sought as food by lobsters.
With which facts in mind, the
Fisheries Bureau has planted in the
sea between and about the jetties a
large number of adult lobsters of
both sexes, obtained for the purpose
from the coast of Maine, where, at
Boothbay Harbor, the Government
maintains what is called a “lobster
station,’’ for collecting the noble
crustaceans, stripping the egg-bear
ers of their eggs, and hatching the
latter by millions in apparatus spe
cially and ingeniously devised for
the work. Many of those liberated
at Cape May were females bearing
eggs, which doubtless hatched out
young during the last few weeks,
and thus helped to stock the new
“farm.”
So confident is the Fisheries
Bureau of results that it intends to

wise of rocks, was run out into Lite
sea several years ago, to prevent the
washing away of the land; aud al
ready it affords a home for such
multitudes of lobsters that not less
than five thousand pounds are taken
there annually in pots by fishermen.
To protect the "farm” at Cape May,
the New Jersey Legislature has
just passed a law forbidding the
capture of lobsters in Cape May
County for the next five years. In
cidentally the enactment provides
that from this time on no lobster
shall be allowed to be taken in any
waters of that State hereafter that
has a back-shell measurement of
less than four and one-eighth inches.
For twenty years the lobster
fishery in New Jersey waters has
been practically at a standstill,
yielding from 100,000 to 200,000
pounds per annum. Any augmenta
tion of the number of lobsters brings
a prompt increase in the number of
fishermen, and of traps employed,
so that the catch soop sinks to a
point where the industry no longer
pays living wages to so many per
sons. Accordingly it falls to a level
where the few still engaged in. it
are liable to make it remunerative;
and thus, by a sort of automatic pro
cess, a balance is maintained be
tween tbe lobsters on the one band
and the "pot-hunters” on the other.
In all likelihood the same condition
of affairs will eventually arrive all
along our North Atlantic coast, so
that, in the upshot, the lobster will
be preserved from extinction by the
mere working out of an economic
law.
Lobsters obtain a certain amount
of protection through their habit of
going far out to sea in the Summer
time—one object of this annual mi
gration being to change their clothes.
Nature has so made them that they
can grow only by throwing off their
old shells and putting on new ones.
When the time arrives, they must
literally “swell or bust.” After
shedding their armor, they hunt for
holes among rocks to hide in, for
safety. For brave and formidable
as is the noble crustacean when clad
in his coat of -proof, he is helpless
against his enemies after casting it
off, and a number of days are re
quired for his new shell to harden.
During this period he stays quietly
in some dark cranny, where no foe
is likely to spy him out and refrain
ing entirely from food is not likely
to wander Into a lobster-pot in pur
suit of (he bait. Thus it is that the
fishermen, who in Summer follow the
lobsters out for a distance of twenty
miles from land, rarely capture a
“soft” 8!>ecimen. This, from the epi
cure's viewpoint, is a pil.v. for a soft
lobster is a wonderful delicacy.
Cooked in boiling lard, it is said to
lie just about the most delicious thing
on earth, far excelling tbe soft crab.
One advantage of the soft lobster
as a comestible is that it is abso
lutely digestible. Incidentally to the
shedding of its coat it coughs up,
in a literal sense of the word, the
entire lining of its digestive appara
tus. Taking no food for some time
thereafter, it is absolutely clean.
But, alas! even at the most luxurious
"lobster palace” one cannot buy a
soft lobster. When a fisherman
comes across one. he eats it him
self.
It is worth mentioning right here
that the belief, so commonly enter
tained, that lobsters are a perilous
diet is wholly unwarranted—so long,
that is to say, as they are fresh out
of water and in a healthy condition.
Unfortunately, they are often sick
or even dying when they are cooked,
and the average restaurant proprie
tor will not hesitate to serve on the
table a specimen that has already
given up the ghost from natural
causes. Of course, no animal is
safe to eat under such circumstances,
and the ultimate consumer may suf
fer from severe and even fatal In
digestion.
Such occurrences are presumably
accountable for the almost universal
belief that a certain portion of the
lobster's anatomy is poisonous. This
is the so-called “lady”—which, as
a matter of fact, is an apparatus in
the stomach for grinding the lob
ster’s food. It is no more poisonous
than the claws. —• —
