LENTEN DESSERTS.

In February desserts should be composed Of light
batter and other easily digested compounds, with
enough of acid fruit juice or pulp to correct the
effect of the cloying sweet desserts of December
and January. Canned and dried fruits are more
valuable al this season and at the beginning of
spring than at any other time. After January
there is often a general reduction in the price of
canned and evaporated fruits, that they may
sometimes be purchased at nearly half price. They
