Grate the yellow off the rind of a lemon and add, stirring in also four ounces of grated chocolate, half a cup of milk, and a pinch of salt. Next put in a pound of flour which you have sifted three or four times. Stir briskly together, roll out and cut in brownie or other shapes and bake in a well-warmed oven. These little cakes take on a lustre if brushed over with the white of an egg. CARAMELS The homemade caramel too often lacks the chezving quality, which to many constitutes its chief charm. To ob- tain this quality, confectioners use glucose, a tasteless, color- less, and, contrary to popular belief, harmless thick syrup. Herewith is given a receipt for making caramels that may be chewed. Place one pint of cream, four cups of granulated sugar, a half pound of glucose, two ounces of butter, two ounces of paraffine, quarter of a teaspoon of cream of tartar, and one cup of shaved chocolate
