celery seed and a half teaspoonful of pepper. Cover and cook twenty minutes. Strain through a sieve. Beat the whites of two eggs until partly light, add them to the tomato, and boil rapidly for five minutes. Strain through two thicknesses of cheese cloth. Reheat, season with two teaspoonfuls of salt and serve with croutons. JULIENNE SOUP. Boil tender, not soft, one small potato, one small carrot, one half cupful of green peas (canned peas can be used), and one small head of celery, if in season; if in summer, asparagus heads will do. Cut the large vegetables into small dice, and add one quart of the clear stock. Take the yolks of two eggs, whipping them up with one tablespoonful of milk with salt to taste, put in a crockery cup and set in steamer; let cook until solid; set away to chill, then cut in small dice or fancy shapes and add to the soup. MACARONI SOUP. One-third package of Macaroni, or Spaghetti; cook in boiling water, salted to taste, until tender, then drain quickly and add one quart of clear stock. Bring to a boiling point and serve. TORONTO BISQUE. Place a sauce pan, with half a cupful of fine chopped onion, the same of carrot and celery, over the fire; cover with boiling water; cook five minutes; drain off the water. Melt one tablespoonful of butter in a saucepan, add the parboiled vegetables; cover and cook ten minutes, stirring often; then add one heaping teaspoonful of flour, stir and cook two minutes, add one cupful of canned tomatoes, and one quart of boiling water, cook fifteen minutes. Shortly before serving rub the bisque through a sieve; mix the yolk of two eggs with half a cupful of cream; add it to the bisque, and stir for a few minutes over the fire. In the meantime cook two ounces of macaroni in salted water thirty-five minutes; drain and rinse it off with cold water; cut the macaroni into small pieces the size of a white bean; add one cupful of this macaroni to the bisque and serve.
