PLAIN MUFFINS

Four cups flour, four teaspoonfuls baking powder, two teaspoonfuls salt, four tablespoonfuls butter, two cups milk. Sift flour, salt, and baking powder into a bowl; add butter, and knead with the back of a fork until it becomes mealy. Add milk and stir until it becomes a batter. Bake in greased pans in a hot oven twenty-five minutes.
