then note the quantity of jelly thus obtained. The
feet are the most easily cleansed of any portion
removed entire, like a stocking. To do this the
feet should not be allowed to boil. the skin
plunged into hot water. not boiling and allowed to
stand for two or three minutes The skin viii then

claws The latter should be cut off.
To make chicken jelly. clean and disjoint
