HOW TO COOK A HUSBAND

A good many husbands are entirely spoiled by mismanage-
ment in cooking, and so are not tender and good.

Some women keep them too constantly in hot water; others
freeze them; others put them in a stew; others roast them, and
still others keep them constantly ina pickle. It cannot be sup-
posed any husband will be good and tender managed in this way,
but they are readily delicious when properly treated .

Don't keep him in a kettle by force as he will stay there
by himself if proper care is taken. If he should sputter or fizz,
don't be anxious. Some husbands do this.

Add a little sugar in the form of what confectioners call
kisses, but no vinegar or pepper on any account; a little spice
improves him, but it must be used with judgment.

Do not try him with something sharp to see if he is be-
coming tender. Stir him gently the while, lest he be too long in
the kettle and become flat and tasteless.

If you follow these directions, you will find him very

digestible, agreeing nicely with you, and he will keep as long
as you want.
