6. Dissolve the soda in a little warm water and stir into the milk. Thoroughly beat the eggs, which add to the milk. Stir into the mixture rye meal enough to make a thick batter. In order that these famous pancakes be successfully made they must be thick enough to drop from the spoon, otherwise they will soak fat. They will be nearly round and not rough with irregular points if rightly thickened. Too many must not be put into the kettle at a time, as they rise a great deal and besides are in danger of cooling the temperature of the fat too much.

7. Have ready a Scotch kettle of hot drippings. Dip your spoon into it each time you dip it into the batter, that it may slip quickly from the spoon. When the pancakes look done, try one with a knit- ting needle. If it comes out smoothly, they are done and should be taken out with a skimmer. They should be a nice brown outside, light and well done inside. Graham flour may be substituted for rye if preferred.

8. RYE PANCAKES Are a breakfast of "ye olden times," and when in perfection are a satisfying winter breakfast. They are a breakfast of themselves, most people not requiring an accompaniment. Their satisfying virtues are still kept in mind by many families.
