Raspberry Jam with Currant Juice

Use equal weights of raspberries and sugar and half the weight of the raspberries in currant juice. Let fruit and juice boil together fifteen to twenty minutes; then add the hot sugar and let boil until the mixture is thick, skimming as needed.

Rose-leaf Jam (a Grecian Recipe, Adelaide Keen) Gather the petals of fresh red roses, being sure that they are free from insects. Add an equal quantity of sugar and water enough to dissolve the sugar; set the whole in the sun under glass until the sugar is well melted. Then cook for twenty minutes, stirring well. Pour into jars and cork tight. The Grecian custom is to serve this jam with coffee to guests who call in the afternoon. +
