This is the method used by an old ex-
perienced housewife: Put the skins TO
soak in salt water for several days; then
fresh water and boil tender Maye syr-
up of same as for the lemon peel. throw
in the peel and let boil up and then pro-
coed same as for peaches. letting them

Take one and one half pounds OF fresh
perfect violets Make a syrup Of two
and one-half pounds Of sugar and small
cup of water Parboil the violets. drain

on fiat dishes, the leaves may be close
together, but must not over lap. Make
a syrup of twice as much sugar as water

and allow to stand until nearly cool, then
pour over the leaves with a spoon Let
it stand for night; next day drain of
the syrup and boil again until it will
make a firm ball rolled between the fin
gers, when dropped in cold water, set
aside until nearly cold, then pour over
the leaves the same way as before. If
propedly done in twenty-four hours each
leaf should be thickly coated with tiny
crystals. II not, heat the syrup the
third time. Then pour off the syrup, let
the leaves stand in a warm, dry place
until the crystals are dried. With ex-
perience one can successfully crystalline
the leaves of any aromatic plant of
flower leaves.
