TO MAKE ANY KIND OF JELLY QUICKLY.

One pound of sugar to one pint of juice; heat the sugar as hot. as possible in the oven (care must be taken not to burn or dissolve it); boil the juice five minutes, add the hot sugar, stir it well and when it has boiled again one minute, set it off and fill your glasses. Observe the time strictly.

— Mrs. George S. Harding
