=Golden Buck.=
Prepare a rarebit in one chafing-dish; break some eggs into the blazer
of another containing salted water just "off the boil." When the eggs

each slice of toast.

Add two slices of broiled or fried bacon to each service of golden buck.
=Mock-Crab Toast.=
Melt a tablespoonful of butter in the blazer, turning it about so as to
butter the surface thoroughly. Put in half a pound of mild cheese,
grated, and stir until the cheese is melted; then add the yolks of three
eggs, beaten and diluted with a tablespoonful of anchovy sauce, a
teaspoonful of made mustard, two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice or
vinegar and one-fourth a teaspoonful of paprica. Stir until smooth.
Serve upon the untoasted side of sippets of bread toasted on one side.
