o tea-spoonfuls of baking powder. Beat the but- ter and sugar until very light — and, by the way, this should always be done when making nice cake. For the filling take one pound of figs, chop them fine, and cook until soft and smooth with a teacup of water and half a cupful of sugar. Another, but I think less desirable, way to prepare the filling is to chop ten ounces of figs and five ounces of raisins, soak them over night in enough brandy, wine, or cider, to make with them a paste that will spread almost like custard. Grandmother^ s Cake, — One cup of butter, two cups of sugar, three cups of flour, four eggs, one cup of sweet milk, two tea-spoonfuls of baking powder. Raisins or cocoanut may be added. This is nice baked in a loaf or in gem tins, or may be baked in layers with custard put between. Cus- tard for the cake is made of half a pint of milk, two tea- spoonfuls of com starch, half a cup of sugar, one egg ; flavor with vanilla.
