Serve them "piping hot," and if there are no plates, each camper can deftly and quickly roll her flapjack into cylinder form of many layers and daintily and comfortably eat it while holding the roll between forefinger and thumb. Keep the frying-pan well greased while cooking the cakes, rubbing the pan with grease each time before pouring in fresh batter.
Cheered by the sympathy which Demi gave her, Daisy made another bowlful of batter, and fried a dozen cakes, which were even better than the others. Indeed, Uncle Fritz after eating two sent up word that he had never tasted any so nice, and every boy at the table below envied Demi at the flapjack party above.
"After all, there is a certain satisfaction in the feeling that you couldn't eat very much more even if you had it, though that's an opportunity to which I've not been accustomed lately. I've made my supper rather frequently on half of a stale flapjack, and had the other half for breakfast the next day. Having admitted that, suppose we turn our attention to the proposition in front of us.
"Surely there's not much danger?" "This here spot will be scorched like an overdone flapjack in half an hour," declared Hinkman. "We got to git!" Frances heard him, distant as she was. "Oh, Mack! you know we can't reach the river in half an hour, even if we travel express speed." "Well! what we goin' ter do then?" demanded the teamster. "Stay here and fry?"
I guess we may call dis meal breakfast jest as well as not, fer it's neah to dawn now." And the trio fell to voraciously, as he handed them each a steaming tin mug and an equally steaming plate. "You haven't been lonely, Dol, I hope, have you?" said Cyrus, as a whole flapjack, doubled over and drenched in sirup, disappeared down his capacious throat.
"You've been there, in the flapjack country, I suppose," invited Mr. Adams. "Have I, stranger? Wall, I should shout! I was one of the fust into the diggin's after Jim Marshall discivvered color. Fact is, I'm jest down from thar now, only stoppin' hyar at Woodchuck's Delight to rest my feet. They've got rheumatiz powerful bad, wadin' in the water so much."
Now, son, when last did you eat a fresh egg or a flapjack?" "You should remember," he answered, laughing, as he followed her into a small, clean kitchen. "Laws-a'-me! An' thet's months ago," she replied, shaking her gray head. "Milt, you should give up that wild life an' marry an' have a home." "You always tell me that."
But above all I recall, and ninety-five out of every hundred others who have visited the rock recall, the breakfast that was once renowned throughout Europe a breakfast at two francs, fifty, brought to perfection for the reason that it was always the same, the shrimps, the cutlets, the chicken, and the amazing omelette, which the portly Madame Poulard prepared in full view, tossing it like a flapjack, to a chorus of delighted "Ahs!"
Always where there is a machine at work, digging or hammering piles, where there is a horse fallen, an auto crashed, a flapjack turner, a fountain pen demonstrator; where there is a magic clock that runs, nobody knows how, or a window puzzle that turns in a drug-store window or anything that moves behind plate glass always where there is any one of these things there are people like us standing riveted, attentive, unwavering.
It was only since he had entered that inhospitable region that he had ever been compelled to go without his dinner; and now breakfast and supper were sternly curtailed. When they were stopped for two days by a blinding snowstorm he grew anxious, and his uneasiness had increased when some time afterward they made their evening meal of a single flapjack each.
