For making candy the best of granu-
lated sugar should be used if confec-
TONER'S sugar is not. though it is but a
trife more expensive. Homemade
candy not only affords amusement in
the making, but is sure to be pure and
wholesome. A new receipt is given
for making nut candy, that has been
tested. 70 two cups of graduated
sugar, and one Of boiling water, add
one large tablespoonful of butter. Boil
till it readily candies when dropped in
cold water. Then remove from the
fire, and stir in nearly two cups OF
Brazil nuts, cut up small, and n Ia
blespoonful of lemon tlavoring. Pour
out upon three large buttered plates to
cool. Always use a silver spoon in
stirring candy. Homemade candy is
a very desirable adjunct to tie dessert,
and consoles the children when de-
priyed of the pastries OF buildings D a
prove so attractive to them. Christian
