"STICKIES" Baking-powder biscuit-dough Sugar, either brown or white Nutmeg Butter Spread the biscuit-dough thickly with the butter beaten to a cream. Sprinkle thickly with sugar, and grate nutmeg lightly over the whole. Roll up, cut with a sharp knife, place cut side down in a baking tin, and bake in a quick oven. For biscuitdough made of two cupfuls of flour, one-quarter cupful of butter and one-third cupful of sugar will be needed. These are delicious with afternoon tea. Smcerely Emma Stercun

Cream seven ounces of butter, add alternately in small quantities seven tablespoons cold water and thirteen ounces of flour and mix it well. Let it stand for one hour under a turned-over bowl. Then roll very thin on a table covered with a tablecloth, then pull on all sides till as thin as tissue paper, without tearing. Cover with melted butter, and put thin cut apples, sugar, cinnamon, grated zwieback, raisins, and small squares of butter, then roll together. Form in the shape of a horse's hoof. Put in a buttered pan, and cover with a well-beaten egg. Bake in a moderate oven for half an hour.
