This is not a dear but a delicious cake.

CAKE WITHOUT EGGS.

Beat together one teacupful of butter and three teacupfuls of sugar,
and when quite light stir in one pint of sifted flour. Add to this one
pound of raisins seeded and chopped, then mixed with a cup of sifted
flour one-teaspoonful of nutmeg, one teaspoonful of powdered cinnamon
and lastly one pint of thick sour cream or milk in which a teaspoonful
of soda is dissolved. Bake immediately in buttered tins one hour in a
_moderate_ oven.

WHITE MOUNTAIN CAKE No. 1.

Two cups of sugar, two-thirds cup of butter, the whites of seven eggs
well beaten, two-thirds cup of sweet milk, two cups of flour, one cup
of cornstarch, two teaspoonfuls baking powder. Bake in jelly-cake
tins.

_Frosting._--Whites of three eggs and some sugar beaten together not
quite as stiff as usual for frosting; spread over the cake, add some
grated cocoanut, then put your cakes together; put cocoanut and
frosting on top.

WHITE MOUNTAIN CAKE. No. 2.

Cream three cupfuls of sugar and one of butter, making it very light,
then add a cupful of milk. Beat the whites of eight eggs very stiff,
add half of those to the other ingredients. Mix well into four cups of
sifted flour one tablespoonful of baking powder; stir this into the
cake, add flavoring, then the remaining beaten whites of egg. Bake in
layers like jelly cake. Make an icing for the filling, using the
whites of four eggs beaten to a very stiff froth, with two cups of
fine white sugar and the juice of half a lemon. Spread each layer of
the cake thickly with this icing, place one on another, then ice all
over the top and sides. The yolks left from this cake may be used to
make a spice cake from the recipe of "Golden Spice Cake."

QUEEN'S CAKE.

Beat well together one cupful of butter and three cupfuls of white
sugar, add the yolks of six eggs and one cupful of milk, two
teaspoonfuls of vanilla or lemon extract. Mix all thoroughly. To four
cupfuls of flour add two heaping teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar and
sift gently over the cake stirring all the time. To this add one even
teaspoonful of soda dissolved in one tablespoonful of warm water. Mix
it well. Stir in gently the whites of six eggs beaten to a stiff foam.
Bake slowly. It should be put in the oven as soon as possible after
putting in the soda and whites of eggs.

This is the same recipe as the one for "Citron Cake," only omitting
the citron.
