Orange Marmalade.

The following is a well-tried and
much approved Scotch recipe: Pare the
oranges very thinly, being careful to
leave no white pith on the rind, and
shred this latter into .Julienne strips.
Quarter the oranges, and lay them in
the preserving pan with just enough
water to cover them; keep squeezing
them with your hand till you cannot
longer bear the heat. then rub this pulp
through a clean hair sieve. Stir the
shreds of rind to this, and to each pint
of juice allow one pound of cane loaf
sugar. Cook this till it jellies, then
pot it. The juice and grated rind OF
one lemon should be allowed for every
four pounds Of oranges, and the juice
of two sweet oranges to each pound OF
the bitter oranges. This marmalade
keeps most beautifully.

ploded the dynamite in the room
above that occupied by Brandt and
his wife, subsequently, shooting him
self in the head. McKie was about 2S

ly good circumstances. He came here
