Oysters with Mushrooms

Drain two dozen oysters; put them in a hot pan. Cook in one teaspoon of butter until the edges begin to curl; then remove to a hot dish. Make a sauce by adding to the oyster liquor the juice from one-half pint of mushrooms, and enough milk to make a pint. Thicken this with one tablespoon of flour blended with one tablespoon of butter and cook two minutes. Add one-half cup of chopped mushrooms, one teaspoon of onion juice, one-half teaspoon of lemon juice and a little salt.

Beat the yolks of two eggs and stir in. Then add the oysters. Let the mixture come to a boil, and serve at once.
