Shrimp Dip

Be careful in your selection.

Do not choose one too young and tender and take only those that have been reared in good moral atmosphere.

Some insist upon keeping them in hot water.

This only makes them sour, hard and sometimes bitter.

Even poor varieties have been made sweet, tender and good by garnishing them with patience.

Well sweetened with smiles and flavored with kisses to taste.

Then wrap them in a mantle of charity.

Keep warm with a steady fire of domestic devotion and serve with peaches and cream and they will keep for years.
