Fig and Raisin Surprises

Wash half & pound of good, largo raisins, put them into a basin, pour boiling water over them, cover the basin with a plate, and leave the raisins in the water all night. Do the same with half a pound of figs. By the morning the raisins will bo soft and round and will require no cooking, but the figs may be boiled for ten minutes if they aro still a little hard. Half-dill somo glasses with figs, raisins and juice, adding a sprinkling of lermon juice. Make a p# int of eustard, fill up the glasses with it, and allow to become quite cold before serving the surprises. A little whipped cream on the top of each is delicious.
