Muffins Always in Order
perlv Made, They Have Won Position as Delicacy
Entitled to a Place of Honor at Either
Breakfast, Luncheon or Dinner.
jluffins, says a culinary authority,

hot breads, hut I am sure they would
a welcome at any meal—tender,
piping hot, fresh from the oven.
1U„v many different kinds of “gems,”
t hey are sometimes known, belong
p' t he muffin family, lightness, and tenderness how they
( .., n differ in
ant] richness!
To lie really tip to standard a
muffin must he light and it must 1>e
mnre or less tender, but it need not
he rich. Popovers, for instance,
whldi nre a kind of muffin, are not
r v!i but they must he light and have
■i certain amount of tenderness.
“Plain’’ muffins should he light and
tender hut riot rich. Tea muffins
should have all of these character-
jstics. Sometlmes, of course, we
choose to use tea muffins for break-
f. !S t, luncheon and dinner. The.v are
lj ' of the muffin
t e V e r y finest member
often' faiuHy-' This Is the mixture that is
used as a foundation for fruit
muffins, such as blueberry or date.
To go hack to popovers, those
puffy bits of crust enclosing nothing,
the secret of making popovers pop
is to hove a thin batter and to bake
them in a hot oven. The batter
should be as thick as really thick
cream. It is not necessary to beat
this mixture even enough to get out
nil the lumps. The pan should be
heavy and should he heated before
greasing. Iron or earthenware are
probably the best types of pan for
popovers. The popovers should be
baked in a hot oven until puffed
brown, about half an hour. The fire
may then he turned out and the pop-
over allowed to stay in the oven ten
nr fifteen minutes longer. This
method guarantees they will come
np to their name.
For muffins we use a thicker bat¬
ter. like a thick cake mixture. The
plain muffins are mixed very quickly,
tiie dry ingredients sifted and mixed
together, ihe egg and liquid well
mixed. I like to pour the first mix¬
ture all at one time into the others
and then stir until smooth. Last of
all, the melted fat, cooled a little
after being melted, is added. When
muffins are made in this way they
are rattier coarse grained If you
wish a finer grain, cut tlo fat into
the flour, or cream with the sugar.
For rich muffins the latter method
is used and we actually get tea
cakes. Blueberries in summer, and
dates or raisins in winter are the
fruits most often used in muffins.
This mixture is sometimes baked in
one rake and called sally lunn.
Bran muffins are great favorites
at present. Molasses is often used
as the sweetening with them. They
have a nutty flavor that Is much
liked.
Baking powder is usually used to
raise muffins. As the eggs are few
the amount of baking powder Is
comparatively larger; the less fat
used, the more baking powder is
needed for tender muffins.
Sometimes sour milk or buttermilk
and soda are used as leavening. The
proportion is ono-half teaspoon to
each cup of sour milk. As we can¬
not be perfectly certain of the
amount of acid in the milk I like to
add one teaspoon of baking powder
to plain muffins or one-half teaspoon
to rich muffins in addition.
Muffins need a moderate oven, 375
degrees Fahrenheit, and when they
are of medium size they should hake
about 25 minutes. Smaller muffins
"ill bake in 15 or 20 minutes.
Leftover plain muffins may be
split and toasted for another day’s
meal. Bran muffins or any of the
tea muffins may be put in a paper

Popovers.
1 cup flour
Mt teaspoon salt
X cup milk
1 egg
Mix the salt and flour, beat the
egg slightly, and mix with the milk;
add to the dry ingredients. Beat
only enough to mix well and
into hot buttered gem-pans or cus¬
tard cups. Bake in a hot oven (450
degrees Fahrenheit) 30 minutes,
then turn out the fire or open the
door, and keep in the oven for ten
minutes. Iron or earthenware is
better than agate or tin for baking
popovers.
Plain Muffins.
2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons melted fat
Mi teaspoon salt
Mix and sift the dry Ingredients.
Beat the egg, pour the milk into it,
and stir gradually into the dry In¬
gredients. Add the melted fat and
fill the greased muffin pans three-
quarters full. Bake 20 to 30 minutes
in a moderate oven (375 degrees
Fahrenheit).
Date or Raisin Muffins.
To the plain muffin recipe add one-
half cup seedless raisins or three-
fourths cup cut dates. The rich
muffin recipe or the bran muffins are
particularly good when fruit is add¬
ed. If baked in very small muffin
pans these fruit muffins are well
adapted for serving at afternoon
tea.

Patent Issued!
for Strea
The inventions of two Civil war¬
time scientists who were born at
least a half century too early—and
thus lost millions of dollars of po¬
tential earnings—have been discov¬
ered.
What had they achieved*
Well, one of them—S. 1C Calthorp
of Roxbury, Mass.—obtained a pat¬
ent on a streamline railroad some
seventy years ago, the same type of
bullet-shaped car that is today’s lat¬
est transportation development, Jack
Diamond tells us, in the Chicago
Daily News.
And the other Inventor, J. R. Barry
of Philadelphia, ten years before that
—in 1855—was granted a patent ou
an air-conditioning and cooling sys¬
tem for passenger cars. The first
air-conditioned train was actually in¬
troduced by the Baltimore & Ohio
almost three-quarters of a century
later, in 1920.
Explanation for the long interval
between issuance of the patents and
actual materialization was given by
the man who called attention to the
ancient patents.
“Barry and Calthrop were certain¬
ly pioneer inventors and, like many
pioneers, were far ahead of their
time,” stated Charles L. Howard, as
sistant general counsel for the West¬
ern Railroad association.
“They planted the seeds for air-
conditioning and streamlining of
trains, hut it took the opportune mo¬
ment and skilled engineers to culti¬
vate the seeds to a successful growth
as they are today.
“For many years following the
days of Barry and Calthorp comfort
and speed of travel were not the Im¬
portant things.
“It was only necessary that we
be moved from place to place with¬
out the loss of limb or life.
“Today it is different. We demand
in addition to safety the utmost com
fort and a mile-or-two-a-mlnute
pace, and we are getting it. In e v ery
