A CHEAP DESSERT.
From MRS. KATE CANTHON MCDANIEL, of Texas, Lady Manager.
Beat the whites of four eggs to a stiff froth; place them carefully in
a vessel containing a pint of boiling milk; let them remain until set,
then remove carefully to a plate. Beat the four yolks and a cup of
sugar until light; stir in half cup of sweet milk, pour slowly into
the boiling milk, stirring briskly all the while; continue stirring
and let it remain on the fire long enough to thicken, taking care that
it never boils or it will be unfit for use; flavor to suit the taste.
Place slices of any cake in dessert plates; pour the custard over
them, put a spoonful of the whites on each piece of cake and a drop of
jelly in the center of the whites.
BANANAS IN JELLY.
From MRS. GOVERNOR RICHARDS, of Montana, President State Board and
Lady Manager.
Make with boiling water one quart of strong lemonade, using only the
juice of the lemons; soak one-half box of gelatine in a small cup of
cold water; stir it into the boiling lemonade and set where it will
cool but not harden. Cut three bananas in length-wise halves and lay
them in a mould wet with cold water, cover with one-half the jelly and
put the mould on ice till jelly is set, then slice three more and pour
on remainder of jelly.
