Speaking of the way the English mis-call things, there is a very pretty London cook book making the remark that something in the batter cake line is baked on a "girdle" in Scotland, where "girdles" are in common use, but as they are little known in England the cake must be baked on the stove plate. The idea of calling a griddle a girdle! The griddle is in common use in New Jersey, but is little known in York State. And if no griddles in England what do they do for buckwheat cakes? Dreadful supposition-perhaps they have none! Time for somebody to start American kitchens over there. So that is the reason why Scotland is apostr phized as "Land o' cakes ! and John o'Groates," And barley bannocks; and England is not honored with any such title-how can she be, with no "girdles', What is home without a "girdle?" Her people are emigrating.
