Raw Cucumbers.
Pare, lay in ice-water one hour; slice, and mix with pounded ice, in a glass bowl. Pass vinegar, salt, pepper, and oil with them.
Apple Compote au Gratin.
Make a quart of good apple sauce; rubbing it very smooth, and beating in, while hot, sugar to make it quite sweet, nutmeg, and a great spoonful of butter. Make a heap of it (it should be rather stiff when cold) upon a deep plate, or pie-dish. Wash all over with beaten egg, and sift rolled cracker thickly upon it. Bake half an hour, and eat hot with butter and sugar.
