Dessert For Children.

A very delicate and he0 sthful dessert for
children is made from rennet and sweet
milk. The rennet now comes in liquid
form and has only to be added to milk that
Is warm to change il into IL delicious curd
or cusiard. This is sweetened and favored
and eaten very cold. A richer custard is
made by adding u beaten egg TO the milk
before adding the reDnet. Sometimes, for
the sick, this dessert is favored with II little
brandy, or may be colored and favored by
adding little raspberry or straw berry sir
