Peach Tapioca

Soak one-half cup of granulated tapioca in one and one-half cups of cold water over night. In the morning add two cups of boiling water and a little salt, and let it boil five minutes. Then put into a double boiler and cook until clear. Take the remnants of a can of peaches-there should be at least a cup, and if there is a pit or two all the better. Add a little more sugar, and simmer until the syrup is somewhat thickened, and stir into the cleared tapioca. Remove from the fire, cool, and pour into a glass dish. Serve with sweetened cream.
