Fruit Jelly

Take one box of gelatine, soak it one hour in a pint of cold water; when well soaked pour on a pint of boiling water; then put in a quart of any kind of fruit, strawberries, raspberries or cherries being nice; add half cup sugar, one spoonful of extract of lemon; pour into a mold, and when cold eat with cream and sugar or whipped cream. It is delicious. - Miss L. A. C., Ky.
