A NICE FRUIT CAKE. Half a pound of flour, five ounces of butter, a quarter of a pound of sugar, one ounce of citron peel, two talucspnonfuls of currants, two tablespoonfuls of sultanas, one tablospoonful of stoned raisins, one level teaspoonful of baking powder, two eggs, a quarter of a teaspoonful each of ground cinnamon and a quarter of ji cupful of milk. Beat the blitter and sugar to a cream, then add the yolks of the eggs well beaten, sift in the flour arid baking powder, add the fruit, shred the peel, and add it, then add the milk, and whites of eggs stiffly beaten, mix gently, po’uri'into a buttered and floured cake-tin. Bake in a moderate over for two hours. This is an excellent cake to servo with “Dragon” brand tea. This tea is one of the popular brands on the market, the others being “Elephant,” “Crescent,” and “Mikado” blends, either of which will please the palate. The Dragon blond is very rich and very economical, in the teapot. It is very strong and less of the tea must bo used, as compared with other teas, to obtain a given amount of liquor. The “Dragon” blend is sold at 2s 8d per Ih., and is obtainable from most grocers in your district.*
