Mrs. J. J. G. APPLE JAM.
Weigh equal quantities of brown sugar and sour apples, pare, core, and chop fine. Make a good clear syrup of the sugar, add the apples, the juice and grated rind of three lemons and a few pieces of white ginger. Boil until the apples are clear and yellow. This resembles foreign sweetmeats. Miss C. M.
