APPLE FLOAT. One dozen apples, pared and cored, one pound and a half of sugar. Put the apples on with water enough to cover them and let them stew until they look as if they would break ; then take them out and put the sugar into the same water ; let the syrup come to a boil, put in the apples and let them stew until done through and clear ; then take them out, slice into the syrup one large lemon and add an ounce of gelatine dissolved in a pint of cold water
