TAMARIND WATER.

Put tamarinds into a pitcher or tumbler till it is one-third full, then fill up with cold water, cover it, and let it infuse for a quarter of an hour or more.

Currant jelly or cranberry juice mixed with water makes a pleasant drink for an invalid.

SAGO JELLY.

Made the same as tapioca. If seasoning is not advisable the sago may be boiled in milk, instead of water, and eaten plain.

Rice jelly made the same, using only half as much rice as sago.

ARROWROOT WINE JELLY.

One cupful of boiling water, one scant tablespoonful of arrowroot, mixed with a little cold water, one tablespoonful of sugar, a pinch of salt, one tablespoonful of brandy, or three tablespoonfuls of wine. Excellent for a sick person without fever.
