One can of oysters, liquor and all, put in the bottom of a pan — a small shallow milk pan is best. Put a strong teacup in the middle of the pan, bottom upward ; season the oysters with salt, pepper and small lumps of butter ; pour in two or three spoonfuls of hot water ; take from four to six hard-boiled eggs and slice them over the oysters ; make a short crust, as for biscuit ; roll about an inch thick and put over the top of the oysters ; cut a small slit over the top of the cup not large

enough to let the cup through, and bake till the crust is done. There is no bottom crust.

SALMON PIE. Take a can of Oregon salmon ; empty it carefully from the can so as not to break it ; prepare a crust in a high dish beforehand ; take a spoonful of flour, half as much butter, and as much ground mace as will go on a penknife, a tablespoonful of salt, and work it well together ; thin it with some of the liquor from the fish, add some chopped parsley to it, with a few peppercorns ; stew the sauce, stirring it so that it shall be smooth ; when the sauce is done put on the fish ; pour the whole carefully into the crust ; bake for ten minutes until it is hot enough, and serve. Sufficient for four or five people.
