Mrs. Gladstone is famous for her mince
pies, and the school girls at Newman
often reveled in these dainties sent direct
from Hawarden by Mrs. Gladstone to her
daughter, says the St. Louis Republic.
The following is a copy of the recipe from
the original document prepared by Mrs.
Gladstone's own hand:-"For mincemeat
a round of beef or q lean piece of shoulder
is the best. The suet to be used should
be taken from the kidneys. After the
beef has been boiled it should be chopped
with the suet as finely as possible. Peel
and core a sufficient number of good
cooking apples to weigh three pounds
when thus prepared for chopping. Mince
these up with the meat and suet.
"Then add three pounds of currants, a
nouud of seediess raisins and two pounds
of stoned Malaga ~raisins, together with a
quarter of an ounce each OF cloves Il
cinnamon, one pound Of powdered sugar,
half an ounce of mace, half an ounce OF
grated nutmeg, q tablespoonful OF all
Spice, a liberal teaspoonful of salt, three
quarters of a pound of SHREDDED cltron
and one put of French brandy. Stir the
mincemeat thoroughly after pouring on
the brandy, put it Oh the fire and heat 1t
TO the boiling point. Take it off the fire
and pour 1t into a well covered earthen
lar. Put it into a cool place where it will
constantly be as near freezing as possible.
Let it stand for three or four weeks be-
fore using. In order to have your inince
or Christmas pies as neal perfection as
possible, make a rich puff paste, and as
YOU fill this with the m~inceneat add can
