that only the most distinct lines be considered at

some experience has been gained. The import

the capacity of modifers and sustainers in con-
necton with the main lines.

There are two ways Of preparing or making
ices One by boiling the sugar and water ana
then cooling it., the other by simply mixing tne
sugar and water without cooking. The former Is
decidedly the better method. An uncooked ice
lacks body and melts rapidly when exposed to
the air. Where sugar and water are boiled the
time must be noted exactly, the scum removed
and the syrup strained while hot through hne
cloth.
The freezer must be packed precisely the same
as for ice cream, but the water ice must noc DC
stirred continually, only occasionally. You can
give the crank few very slow turns, theh iet ~
rest then turn slowly again as before and rest

A WORD ABOUT SHERBETS.
Sherberts are made precisely the same as ordi-

stirred constantly while freezing, and a oneegg

simply makes a rather light and creamy mixture.

DESCRIPTION OF SKETCHES.

A simple, effective and cheap tool for chip
ping ice for use in ice cream freezers is shown
among the illustrations. 1t takes the place of
the oldtime bag and hatchet. 1t quickly re-
duces the ice to uniformly small pieces, about
the size of peanuts.
With ice Clipped in such pieces, it is possible
to freeze ice cream more rapidly and smoothly,
because it packs more solidly round can and ex-
cudes the air.

Art IN MoLDING CREAM.

If you wish to mould ice cream or serve it in
forms, have your mould ready at the time you
remove the dasher from the can, and also have
ready a tub or bucket containing mixture of
coarse ice and salt. Moisten the mould with
cold water, then fill it quickly with ice cream,
pressing it down with spoon to fill every part
of the mould.
Lay piece of wax paper, strong MANILA
paper, over the cream, large enough to project
beyond the edges when the lid is on, put on the
lid and imbed the mould in the tub of ice and
salt. Cover with piece of carpet and stand
aside for one or two hours.
Or in place of using the paper after you have
filed the mould put on the lid and stand it in
the tub of ice and salt. Take narrow piece
of muslin sufficiently long to bind the joint of
the lid dip it into melted butter or suet, bind
it quickly around the joint, then mbed the
mould in the salt and ice.
When ready to use, lift the mould from the
ice, wipe it carefully, plunge it into pan of
warm water, remove the lid and paper Tor strip
of muslin, and then the lid) and turn the mould

III is not absolutely necessary TO scald tne MIX
or cream, but it adds to the richness of the ice
cream. Always use earthenware or porcelain
lined dishes for acid preparations, as by using
the ordinary kitchen vessels greasy taste may
be impaired
Where part milk is used in the recipe, the
cream may be whipped before freezing. If eggs
used for ice cream cook them with the milk
cream. When you want a delicious, smooth
cream you cannot do better than to use Phila-
delphia recipes which are celebrated here in
America and abroad.
Avoid gelatine and arrowroot, when you can
afford pure cream. A well beaten white of egg
added to frozen sherbet makes it creamy and
smooth.
