Scotch woodcock Is two slices of hot buttered toast, with an anchovy on each slice, and a sauce made of a half-pint of milk and the yolks of three eggs poured over them. The mock turtle is one of the most familiar of fabulous table animals, being “Alice's Adventures In Wonderland" will be found a striking picture of the remarkable reptile, represented with the body nt a turtle and the head of a calf.
