Golden Mousse,

For golden mousse beat well the
yolks of three eggs, add tablespoon
full of pure maple syrup, and cook,
stirring constantly until the mixture
makes a thick coating on the spoon.
Remove from the fire, add three table
spoonfuls of sweet orange juice and
one-half tablespoonful of lemon juice,
beating until the mixture becomes
light and cold. Beat the whites of
four eggs to a stiff froth, with a
pinch of salt, and pour slowly into
them two tablespoonfuls of boiling
syrup cooked to the stringy stage.
Add this to the yolks, put the two
mixtures into mould, and pack in
ice and salt for four hours. A few
white grapes or candied cherries may
be placed in the bottom of the mould
before the mousse is poured in. This
may be served with whipped cream.

Useful Cement.

An efficient cement for mending
china can be made at home with very
little trouble. A paste is made of
powdered quicklime, the white of an
egg, and the whey of milk and vinegar
in equal parts, and the mixture must
be beaten we'll and warmed, not heat
ed. The broken edges of the china
must also be exposed to heat before
the cement is applied. A very thin
coating is sufficient, and the joint
should be held firmly in place until
the cement has dried, when it will
prove most durable solution.
