SUMMER DESSERTS.

There are any number of f1avors
and kinds of gelatine desserts on the
market which. by the addition of boil
ing water, are ready, when cold to
serve with cream and sugar. These
desserts are good and easy to prepare,
and have two qualifications which
make them popular; but one tires of
things too easy and UNMARRIED.
Banana cream.-Beat the whites of
two eggs slightly, and add one-fourth
of cup Of powdered sugar and, grad
nally, three-fourths of a cup of hot
cream. Cook over hot water, stirring
constantly until the mixture thickens.
then add two tablespoonfuls of gela-
tine soaked in half . cup OF cold wa
ter and two-thirds Of cup of sugar
of ice water and add the mashed pulp
of ice waite and add the mashed pulp
of four bananas and one tablespoonful
of lemon juice. Stir until the mix
ture begins to thicken. then fold in
the whip from three and a half cups of
cream. Turn into a mild and chill
thoroughly.
Frangipan Pie.-Make and roll out
to fourth Of an inch in thickness
good rich pastry. Cut the size of lay
er cake, using a pan for a marker.
Bake three of these crusts and put
them together with sweetened, fla
vored whipped cream. Any fruit may
be added to the cream, il desired, or
nuts may be used for variety. Straw
berries are especially nice for this
pie A cupful of berries crushed and
added to the cream makes a delicious
flavor.
Fruit Blanc Mange.-Mix well two
tablespoonfuls of cornstarch and halt
cup of sugar; add to a pint Of hot
milk and cook until smooth. thick and
the raw taste of the starch is removed.
then add a beaten egg. and when cold
pour over any fruit. Serve with
cream or a thin custard.
