Cheese-And-Lettuce Sandwiches (Very Good)

Cut Boston brown bread into thin slices, butter one of these lightly, and spread it with Neufchatel or Philadelphia creamcheese. On this lay a leaf of lettuce which has been dipped for a moment in French salad dressing. Place another slice of buttered brown bread upon this and cut the round into three triangular sandwiches. Water-cress may be used in place of lettuce.

French Sandwiches

Mince and mix a quarter of a pound of tongue and the same of ham to a paste with two tablespoonfuls of butter and three minced truffles. Season with paprica, a few drops of lemon-juice, and five drops of onion-juice. Spread between thin slices of bread, laying a few water-cress leaves upon the mixture in each before enclosing between the two slices.

Savory Sandwiches

Mix a cupful of chopped chicken, a generous slice of boiled ham (minced), three tablespoon fuls of butter, half a teaspoonful of mace, and a few drops of onion-juice into a soft paste with a few spoonfuls of oyster-liquor. Set in a saucepan of boiling water and stir until smoking-hot. Set aside to get cold, and spread between thin slices of Graham bread.

Tongue Sandwiches

Mix a cupful of finely chopped tongue with half as much boiled ham, stir in three tablespoonfuls of melted butter beaten light with as much salad oil, half a teaspoonful of made mustard, and a quarter of a teaspoonful of paprica. When the mixture is smooth and light set in a saucepan of boiling water over the fire and cook until it is thoroughly heated. Beat in the yolk of a whipped egg, take from the fire and set by until perfectly cold. Spread between thin slices of bread.

Mayonnaise Sandwiches

Mix together a cupful of cold minced chicken and a dozen champignons, chopped fine; season with salt and paprica and beat into the mixture a cupful of good mayonnaise dressing. Cut thin rounds of bread and spread this mixture between them.

Cream-Cheese Sandwiches

Rub together half a Philadelphia cream-cheese, a tablespoonful of butter, the powdered yolks of two hard-boiled eggs; season with salt and paprica and spread this between crackers - sal tines, or water-thin biscuits, or "sea-foams."

Home-made cottage cheese can be substituted for the Philadelphia.

Piquant Sandwiches

Cut bread very thin, buttering it lightly on the loaf. Upon each slice spread a filling made by mixing three hard-boiled eggs, minced extremely fine, with half their bulk of sharp green pickle chopped equally small. Season this compound with salt and pepper to taste, and work in a little butter. Lay another thin slice of bread, buttered side down, over this, and cut them into square and triangular sandwiches.
