BANANA AND LEMON JELLY CREAM
Soak one-half box of gelatin in one cup
of cold water. Shave the rind of one lemon, using none of the white, and
steep it with one square inch stick of cinnamon in one pint of boiling
water ten minutes. Add the soaked gelatin, one cup of sugar and
three-fourths of a cup of lemon juice, and when dissolved strain into
shallow dishes. When cold cut it in dice or break it up with a fork, and
put it in a glass dish in layers with spiced bananas. Pour a cold boiled
custard over them and cover with a meringue. Brown the meringue on a
plate and slip it off over the custard.

GUERNSEY CHEESE SOUFFLE
Pin a narrow folded paper thoroughly buttered
on the inside, around six or eight ramequins and butter the ramequins
thoroughly. Melt two tablespoonfuls butter and in it cook two
tablespoonfuls of flour and a quarter teaspoonful each of salt and
paprika. When the mixture looks frothy stir in half a cup of milk and
stir until boiling. Then add four ounces grated cheese and the beaten
yolks of three eggs. Lastly fold in the stiffly whipped whites of three
eggs. Put the mixture into the ramequins letting it come up to the paper
or nearly to the top of the dishes. Set the ramequins on many folds of
paper in a dish, pour in boiling water to half fill, and let bake in a
moderate oven until the mixture is well puffed up and firm to the touch.
Remove the buttered paper, set the ramequins in place and serve at once.
A green vegetable salad seasoned with French dressing and a browned
cracker may accompany the dish.

AN OLD ROMAN RECEIPT FOR IMPROVING THE SKIN.

Jewish Recipes

Boil a dessert spoonful of the best wheaten flour with half a pint of
fresh asses milk; when boiling, stir in a table-spoonful of the best
honey, and a tea-spoonful of rose water, then mix smoothly, place in
small pots, and use a little of it after washing; it is better not to
make much at a time, as when stale it is liable to irritate the skin.
