It will soon drip in elongated drOps. and. finally. along fine thread will float from the end of the spoon. lAS soon as this appears. remove from the fire and set in apan of water, and allow it to partially cool. \Vhile at sixty degrees begin to work it with a stout spoon; should the sy- rup be boiled too long. a crust will have formed on the top, which may be removed before stirring. \Vhen cool- ed exactly right. the surface is cover- ed with a thin skin. “'11911 the syrup thickens and whitens. add ap-inch of cream of tartar beat agaln until thick enough to handle. then.

For those who cannot drink tea or coffee it makes the most palatable warm beverage they can take. Like both tea and coffee, the most delic- ious and safest to use is 21ng brand. Some people prefer a sweet chocolate and others the unsweetened. Probably the best unsweetened chocolate is the least unadulterated. Almost allsweet chocolates contain more or less foreign substances, and it is no trouble to sweeten to taste when preparing the bevm‘age. Time is saved by grating the whole cake of chocolate at once and keeping it ready for use in acovercd glass jar; or tin box.
