Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 92, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 17 April 1913 — She “Iced” the Cake. [ARTICLE]

She “Iced” the Cake.

This is chiefly interesting, because it happens to be true: The Baltimore housewife who was preparing for a luncheon at her home, and a bang-up a'ffalr it was to be, finished the general layout of edibles, then hurried upstairs to dress, saying to the maid: - “And Mary, while I’m dressing you may ice the cake.” Mary was willing and industrious. When her mistress came down she found that Mary had cracked up a nickel’s worth of ice and arranged it around and over the cake, which was crumbling away at the bottom in. a Uttle lake of water.
