Add the -orange and demon juice and grated rind, salt and cook a mim;te longer. Bake one crust of pastry on the bottom of the inverted tin and when done, place in tin and fill with the lemon mixture. Beat the whites of the eggs stiff and put on top of the pie. Set in a hot oven to'brown the meringue quickly. If the'oven is not hot, the meringue will be tough.

As. a nation we have always used more sugar than we really needed. This awakening to the use of other forms of `sweet in our diet and cooking will not injure our health and will be of great service to, our Allies. Among the sugar substitutes we have the syrups which include mo- lasses, corn and maple syrups; honey; maple sugar; dried fruits which in- clude figs, raisins, dates and prunes; jams, preserves, jellies and sweet can- ned fruits with their juices. Corn, syrups, molasses and honey all contain about four-fifths sugar and one-fifth water so that in using any of these we obtain about four spoon- ful, of sugar from five spoonfuls of syrup but as the syrup contains mois- gture, more flour must be used or an equal amount of a flour, such as bar- ley flour, which takes up moire mois- ture.
