DAINTY FINGERS

Beat together one-half a pound of sugar and one-half a pound butter; add five eggs, the whites and yokes beaten separately; one teaspoon of mace, one-half wine-glass of brandy, and one-half pound flour. Stir well together and drop in lady-finger pans for baking to a delicate brown. When done and while warm fasten the fingers together, painting with the white of an egg upon the flat side.

OATMEAL COOKIES

Stir one cup of butter in one cup of sugar; add a beaten egg, one teaspoon of salt. Stir in gradually two cups of white flour, two cups of oatmeal, adding also one teaspoon of soda dissolved in two tablespoons of milk. When you have the dough well mixed, roll it thin, cut into shapes, and bake in a moderate oven.
